If you’re looking for an inexpensive way to put a smile on people’s face, Snapily turns your photos into moving prints or as they brand it, a “LivingPrint.” You can easily create a card where 2 to 5 photos can be brought to motion on a card, for less than $4.

2. SAVE FOR THAT BIG EVENT OR VACATION WITH SMARTY PIG! SmartyPig is a one of a kind virtual piggy bank that can enable you to save for back-to-school expenses, teach your children about the responsibilities of money, and save for the things you really want. Recommended by Family Circle, SmartyPig launched in April 2008 as a unique way to automatically save for an upcoming vacation, with the same benefits: a social networking aspect, true incentives from top retailers, and ease-of-use.

5. INTRODUCING….THE ROLE MOMMY CREDIT CARD! While all of us continue to face tough economic times, Role Mommy has found a way to stimulate the economy while making a difference in the lives of others. We are excited to announce that we’ve just introduced the Role Mommy credit card! Sign up for your free Platinum Visa card from UMB and once you make your first purchase, a $50 donation will be made to Role Mommy and we will contribute $25 of those funds to charities supporting women and children (including St. Mary’s Children’s Hospital, Love Our Children USA and the Gal to Gal Foundation) and the additional funds will support programs and events throughout the year that empower and enable women to pursue their passion while raising a family.
