If you haven’t heard of it the whole concept is about changing your facebook photo to someone  that looks like you – perhaps a celebrity? Maybe you are a celebrity that looks like me? :)

Here are a few links to the best sites where you can assess your photos to return who you look like. Be sure to post a comment on who you look like!

My Heritage Face Recognition

Enjoy!

Dawn, an avid frugal fan from Frugal for Life posted some great tips recently on how to be both green, as well as save the green (of the monetary kind).

Amongst Dawn’s great tips in part 1 and part 2 of her saving green in multiple ways posts I particularly like the tips on going without bags, making better use of a broom, borrow before you buy, forgo the receipt, drink more tap water and forget the straw!

Got any frugal tips you swear by?

With the site recently hacked, it has given me renewed focus to improve the site.

Apart from the obvious of you all wanting to see more freebies, what are your thoughts on how we can improve?

Examples:
I would like to see a link to facebook so I can share freebies with my friends
I would like to see the most popular posts in the side bar rather then just the latest posts
I want to be able to rate posts via a star rating out of 5
I have some thoughts on how you can improve the site design such as X, Y, Z

Please leave your feedback! :)

I have gone on to use a few fragrances and shaving products I’ve received.

Andrea has a draw full of freebies and Holly likes a personal hygiene product or two.
