Birthday Party Kids' birthday parties have gotten out of hand. Celebrities began the trend with birthday bashes that outsized Hollywood movie openings. Thanks to the trickle-down theory, private parties for the little people must now have everything from a guest performer to a theme with lots of bells and whistles. Before you rent that bouncy princess castle or buy all-thematic accessories, consider the following nine bargain-basic tips.

1. Plan Ahead
Wait until the last minute and you'll likely spend more on unanticipated extras. Decide what you want to accomplish, set a budget and slowly chip away at all you need to accomplish. You might also enlist the help of family and friends to keep your stress level down.

This post brought to you by DealBabyDeal. All opinions are 100% mine.

Have you ever been at a grocery or department store and shared a coupon that you either couldn't use or had already benefited from?  I do this all the time, because I love to help other people save money and I can't stand to see a great coupon go to waste.

As a matter of fact, anytime that I shop online, I always scour the internet to find a discount coupon of some sort because I absolutely hate paying full price!  I have many favorite savings haunts that I contribute to as well, if I happen to come across a fabulous deal or coupon code in my searches.

MagnabilitiesSpeaking as someone who absolutely loves jewelry, I'm amazed at how quickly buying a few pieces can amount to spending a small fortune.  It seems that even purchasing fashion jewelry from department stores can cost upwards of $20 per piece and so if you buy just a few necklaces, you could easily spend around $100.

What if I told you that there was a way to purchase jewelry which would give you a myriad of looks and styles for just a fraction of the cost of department store jewelry?  Let me introduce you to the newest fashion jewelry trend, Magnabilities!

RadioShack CorporationIt's one of those nasty little annoyances in life that seems to happen to us all at one time or another...traffic tickets.  No matter how careful we are while driving, sometimes we're distracted by other things happening around us and aren't mindful of all traffic laws.  Now if you've ever received a traffic ticket of any kind, you know that they are very expensive and will usually cost several hundred dollars.

So is there a way to have a second chance to adhere to the traffic laws before receiving a costly violation from a police officer?  Yes there is!  RadioShack, a leader in consumer electronics, allowed me to review one of their top of the line radar/laser detectors in the Cobra XRS 9545 14-Band Radar/Laser Detector.  Keep reading to learn much more!

I reviewed the Cobra XRS 9545 14-Band Radar/Laser Detectorfrom RadioShack, which retails for $121.95, but is currently on sale for $99.17.
