Hi! My name is Christina and I am a work-at-home mom, wife, blogger, and savings strategist. I have spent the last decade guiding, encouraging and inspiring others on how to save money and finding fun things to do with their families.

Since 2011, I have built a portable, lifestyle business through blogging.

My three primary blogs are:

WNYDealsandToDos.com
TimeForAGame.com
RuffledMom.com

I love coffee, cats, cake, coupons, children. Basically anything that starts with a “C”. Maybe it has something to do with my name. 😉 When I am not online, you can find me enjoying my community with my family.
