Now if you haven't found this diamond in the rough, then you are seriously missing out. New movies are always $2.50. Of course they are not the feature of the week, but we went and saw Clash Of The Titans, which you have to see on the big screen, and were only out $5. Plus we found an even better bargain....Of course because that's my thing. if you go on Tuesdays any time you get admission for $1. Already pretty sweet but of course me being the thriftiest of thrifty have found even more bargains. On Tuesdays you also can get a 46 oz popcorn a large drink and a hot dog for $1.50 each. Normally you have to sneak in all your extras just to afford the movie. So I could sleep in the parking lot for three days to pay at least $10 to see the ohhhh so amazing Twilight. Then of course I would be so thirsty that I have to buy the large drink. Cha Ching another $5.50. I'd also be famished so I need that $6.95 popcorn and that delicious $5.95 hot dog. So now you have spent a total of $28.40 And really how good can it be for one person to spend that much. Edward might be dreamy but he isn't worth that much. So let's say you are smarter than the average 14 year old girl. You sleep in while they camp for days and you wait till it comes to the Colonial Promenade. Weeks maybe. You ponder over the question of does she pick the Vampire or The Ware wolf. And you purchase that ticket for a whole $1. You are still thirsty and hungry so you spend that whopping $4.50 and get yourself a coke, hot dog and popcorn. You are now at a total of $5.50 for the same movie and all of the world will be right when you finally find out if Kristen picks Jacob or Edward. You can take your whole family for the price of one regular ticket. Pretty easy way to save money and keep having fun in Orlando.
Just a couple more things to add. Anyone who is interested in the free $20 on their netspend card...Please shoot me an email and I will gladly sign you up. Email me @ keylargoholly@yahoo.com. My husband received his card today and we already got his free money. I'm serious guys I have signed up a lot of people and they all have gotten their free money. So until they stop issuing it , get it now.
And to my brother Houston I have to say I was very upset that I didn't get the opportunity to save you a ton of money here. So I will save you some money out there in St. Pete. I will show any of my doubters ways to save not only in Orlando but globally. Send me your interests and city and I promise to send you the savings. Because i think no matter where you are you can always save money and have fun.

Netspend....again.And Marlboro
I have a couple things to discuss today. First off, is once again, Netspend. I signed my husband up today on their website and they are going to send him a free card. YIPEEE there goes the activation code. So everyone go on the site NOW and sign up. It takes 7-10 days to receive it. You can't start making the money until you order it. Here's the best part of the whole deal. After you order it it will give you a one time option to refer your friends, so have a long list ready. I would warn everyone you refer, so they don't get upset, but let them know it's really in their best interest to get one too. And this is why, they will give them $20 free if they load it with$20.....BUT THAT'S NOT ALL FOLKS. IF YOU SIGN UP NOW....you get $20 too. Put right on your card. How cool is that? So here's how it's going to work.
1. You get a list of names and emails of everyone you have ever known and them-some.
2. You order your card at NETSPEND.COM
3. You input a list so big it shuts the servers down.
4. You hark on all your freinds to make sure they ordered their free cards.
5. You call, text, email, and down right scream at them to get their card.
6. You wait impatiently pacing in front of your mailbox. Screaming at the mailman"WHY ISN'T IT HERE?"
7. You hear the angels sing as you pull out that beautiful envelope. FINALLY!!!!!!!
8. You rush to ACE check cashing barely missing that poor old lady walking across the street.
9. You shriek when you walk in "AHHH A LINE"
nah just joking it's ACE no one is ever in there...calm down.
10.You put $20 in.
11.You wait till you get home so you can activate it online.
remember yesterdays blog about the free $4?
12.You input my referral # so you get a free $5.
yes I will get $5 but hey, small price to pay for all the dough you're gonna be rolling in.
13.You start yelling at your friends to put $$$ on their cards.
14.You start rolling in the dough.
Alright I broke this down to my #1 fan....Houston.(NO I will NOT call you that other name you go by).
He puts $20 on his card....BAMMM I get $20 and he now has $40
He adds 3 friends
They each put $20 on their card....BAMMM They now all have $40 on their card and he gets $20 from each
Now Houston's initial $20 has turned into $100
Okay on to Marlboro. You might be saying,"But Holly I'm not a smoker".And my reply would be a quick,"Who cares". Listen cigarette companies can't advertise in traditional ways. It's unlawful now. So they figured out a great way to market,and it really benefits everyone that's smart enough to figure it out.
You need to become a member of Marlboro.com. Just sign up and they ask for a promo code( remember my favorite words).....FIND ONE. Just do a quick google search. Type in the words Marlboro promo codes. You will get hundreds pages. Look for ones that give you the best deal. I love retailmenot.com.com for promo codes. They are usually the most up to date. Once you signed up you probably already are getting something free from the promo code. I've received things from key chains, nice aluminum thermoses, a beautiful cookbook, and tons of other stuff. But nothing beat the deal I got today. Today I went to a 20 minute product presentation of their new snus. Don't worry about what it is, it really doesn't matter. But here is what I got...
Both me and my husband are members...(Because 2 is always better than1). I got a flier a couple weeks ago for us both that stated this crazy claim, that if I go to this 1 hour seminar I could receive $50 cash. "Yeah right" I thought, "I live in the time share capital of the world.We've all probably given that same speech of," it'll only take up 90 minutes of your time and you get 2 tickets to Disney."" We all know that 90 minute tour takes nearly the whole day. But I am broke. I decided that even if it took all day $100 was worth it($50 for me and $50 for him). We both were allowed to bring 2 friends. So, I quickly called up our best friends, Heather and Drew, and they thought it was a great idea. I posted the other 2 on Craigslist (another great way to save that I will delve into later). We scheduled it when everyone was available. So, we went and 20 minutes later, it was done. It was at a bar in the afternoon and the bar was open for free soda and glass bottles of water, all that you wanted. A buffet table of chicken wings, poppers,chicken strips, nachos and the likes. We all received our $50 gift cards....a total of $300, a cool aluminum thermos (which we already have a few), some free marlboro coupons, and full bellies and quenched thirsts. All in all a great deal. It cost us $2 to park and we walked with all those goodies. So make sure you sign up today. The 20 minutes were fun and it was actually less time than they say...TAKE THAT WYNDHAM!!!
So for today that's all. I really hope you guys take these suggestions I have and start saving money and having fun in Orlando.
So I just was given a throw-down by my #1 fan. He doesn't even live here but is coming based off the information he has from me. He is my brother, and guys I have lots more tricks up my sleeve, so I am booking his weekend to see exactly how much I can save him, and how much fun he can have, over if he came here on his own. I will break down all I saved him after his trip. So to my darling Houston, I say "You will be buying me dinner (so I can save more....hee hee). When I save you a bundle

Netspend
So I totally, accidentally found this super way to get some free money. And boy am I glad I did. This is how it happened....
I needed to cash a check and have lost my ID.And I hope none of you know how difficult this makes your life right now. It used to be easy to get a new ID, but not anymore. You will need all of the following....Birth Certificate, Lease with your name on, utility bill in your name, voter card, if you are married, your marriage license. So, I don't have my birth certificate or marriage license, haven't ever needed them and I am famous for losing things, obviously that's why I am in this situation. Catch 22 is you can't get birth certificate without ID and can't get ID without Birth Certificate....ughhhhh. Only my parents can get a copy. Luckily, although I am getting up there in age, my parents decided to have me young and are still kicking around or else I'd be totally up the creek with no paddle. So, I suck in my pride and decide to call and beg them to go wait in line at Vital Statistics because I'm a blonde and can not remember where I put things. But as luck has it, my fantastical mother has my original. Now I know I have purchased a copy numerous times over the years, never thinking that my mother (who by the way is a blonde also) would know where my original was.
Anyways, it's a long process.And leads to my original point. I only have a copy of my ID, and I really need to cash a check in my name. I call around to see if anyone would take a copy, Wal-Mart, Amscot, anyone I can find...Then I find Ace cash checking and they say,they will take a copy.Yahhhh. I show up and after many phone calls with the head honchos they agree to cash my check. Only catch is I have to put $10 on their pre-paid card. Ouch I know there are service fees for everything on there, plus a cost to purchase it. Usually $3.95 to buy it and $2 a transaction. Wich would mean my $10 investment would allow me to purchase something for $4.05. Not very wise, but I really need to cash this check and I have no other options. So I decide that $5.95 plus the $3 fee for cashing out-ways not having electric.Then the wonderful lady tells me they are waving the $3.95 because they are making me buy it. And the funds are available immediately after I activate the card. So now I'm down to the $2 fee. I know there is something I want that cost $17, so i put $20 on the card.
Now comes the coolest part.....When I call to activate it tells me that if I go to the website and activate I get an additional $4. Now I'm up $2. But I'm not done I log on and start to activate my card and it asks for a promo code. One of my favorite questions, because I know if I see Promo, or coupon code I am about to get a better deal. So I search for codes and low and behold a free $5 referral code.I put it in and boom my credit is $29. I put in $20 and was able to make a $5 purchase online( $2 fee) and took out $20 at the ATM ($2 fee). So I get my online purchase free. And I post my code online at all the coupon sites that I'm an avid fan of and they get the same deal.
Once you get an account you get a referral code and every person that uses it gets $5 free plus the $4 if they activate online, and here comes another cool part, you get another $5. They simply add it to your account. This is all totally free money while they are trying to get their name out. So utilize this awesome advertising technique to score free money. Because the only thing better than Saving Money and Having Fun is to get Free money while having fun.
referral code I have is 3159691773. Just go to Netspend.com and enter your info and put this code in the referral line.
