While at a marketing conference earlier this summer, I was so lucky to meet a handful of fantastic female bloggers who share my passion for bringing useful, entertaining information to their readers. Out of that chance meeting came the old, ‘Let’s put on a show!’ But instead of a show, we’ve pulled together some of our best information on frugal living, saving time, and creating a healthier, more satisfying life. And now we’re offering it to you… free!

This ebook is delivered digitally and includes information on topics such as:

  • Saving money by couponing
  • Using a menu plan
  • Making time to connect with your friends
  • What to do when you’re so overwhelmed you don’t know what to do (my contribution!)
If you’d like a copy, all you need to do is sign up for the 30-Minute Martha email list using the box in the upper right corner of this page or this link here. I’ll be sending the download link later today to anyone who’s subscribed. (If you are reading this after Wednesday, 10/5/11, no worries! You’ll get a copy as soon as you sign up for the email list!).
I think you’ll find it well worth a quick read. At 28 pages, you’ll be able to skim through quickly and get some great hints and ideas.
P.S. We’re planning to make this available on Kindle as well, so stay tuned if you’re a Kindle lover! :)

ShareWelcome to Day 12 of 30 Days to an Organized Home, our 30-day journey to sanity and cleanliness. On Day 27 we put our disaster preparedness kit together. I didn’t call it that, of course!
