Viggle – Are You A Couch Potato – There's An App For That!
Get Paid To Watch TV!
Viggle is a loyalty program for people who watch television, it gives rewards for checking into the television shows that you are watching. Available for Android, Apple iPhone®, iPad® and iPod touch®, Viggle automatically identifies the television shows its users are watching and awards them points when they check-in. Viggle users can redeem their points in the app’s rewards catalogue for items such as movie tickets, music, gift cards or they can convert them into charitable donations.
Viggle works by using the microphone on your device to listen in on the TV show or movie and gives you the option to share what you are watching with friends. Viggle’s basic integration is with Facebook and Twitter but telling Viggle what you’re watching is for your own personal gain.
You need to be a couch potato because the minimum amount of points needed to redeem a reward is 7,500, or approximately 60 hours of tv-watching. You can also get bonus points by tagging live TV shows, special events, or watching ads within the app.
I currently have 20,034 points and am thinking about cashing in or I might wait for a bigger reward!
Check it out, the app is free in the iOS App Store.

OOTD – Son said, "what?" Saturday
Hello Friends and Happy Saturday, I hope you had an enjoyable day.
I am sitting at the kitchen table sipping Ginger tea trying to accept the fact that son #2 is no longer my baby. He and I had planned to go to Best Buy to purchase Dragon Speak software and an external DVD drive for his Notebook. I asked him to take a few shots before leaving and as he reluctantly did, he informed me that we had to be home by 4:00 because his “girlfriend” was coming over. “Girlfriend…girlfriend…did he say girlfriend?”
I was all smiles as he hadn’t told me yet
Huh, what did he just say?
Don’t get me wrong, he is 16 and has had crushes on girls before but this was going to be the first time I was actually going to meet “his girlfriend”, the first time a girl was coming to the house. I know…I know…but I’m gonna need something stronger than this tea!
And he knows that if he doesn’t do the right thing, these will be up his butt!
Just grin and bear it…..
Mossimo boots – GW Boutique // Black Jeans – closet staple // Leopard print top – NY&Company // Neon Vest – Old Navy (clearance $3.49)
Linking up with quite the blog – hop over and meet a new blogger
Have a fantabulous evening – Smooches!
