At Sunshine Rewards, the holidays are in full swing. I love this time of year. I start to really get in the mood when I hear that first holiday song. In the Sunshine Rewards Forum, we have kicked off the season with our Countdown to Christmas contest. Everyday there is a contest, and everyday there is a winner. Yesterday’s contest asked our members to rewrite the popular “Jingle Bells” using Sunshine lyrics. We had some wonderful entries. In fact, I was impressed with the creativity. We did choose a winner. Congratulations to that member. The entry was so good that I thought you might like to hear it. I hope it puts you in the holiday mood.

Head over to the forum to check out today’s contest. You can get entered today just by submitting your favorite holiday recipe. Tomorrow will bring a new contest and a new chance to win. Don’t forget that you need to be a member of Sunshine Rewards and sign up for our forum to play. After you get entered, stick around and get great tips for finding all of the best deals this holiday season! Happy Holidays!

My favorite note card collection has just been expanded! Checks Unlimited has now expanded their note card line to include 21 different note card packs. Each pack features 20 5.5″ x 4.25″ cards and envelopes for 9.95. These blank-inside cards are great for thank you notes, gifts, and general correspondence.

Disney fans will love the various Disney note cards, including movie scenes, Mickey and friends, Disney Princesses, and Winnie the Pooh. Each pack contains between 4 and 8 different scenes. My personal favorite are the Disney Classic Note Cards, which have scenes from Dumbo, Alice in Wonderland, Pinocchio, Jungle Book, and more.

Not a Disney fan? Check out the other licensed characters like Batman, Superman, Flinstones, and Looney Tunes. For a more general card, see their Hope for the Cure Cards or the Renaissance Note Card patterns.

Are you tired of throwing out rotten produce? Debbie Meyer Green Bags can prolong the life of your fruits, vegetables, and even flowers without the use of harsh chemicals. With Green Bags, you can stock up on produce and extend the life of your homegrown fruits and veggies.

These bags work by absorbing and removing the damaging ethylene gas produced during the ripening process of fruits and vegetables after harvesting. They also control humidity and discourage the growth of mold, bacteria, and fungus. With Green Bags, you will now be able to save money by wasting less food. These bags are even reusable up to 10 times.

At Sunshine Rewards, you can purchase Debbie Meyer Green Bags for $9.95. That’s 20 bags, 10 medium and 10 large for the price of 10! You will also earn $2.50 cash back! Enjoy this video review. I’ve used this product and can tell you firsthand that it works.
