Friday Night and nothing to do? Ugotitfirst can help!

Ok boys and girls! Friday night, and you and your friends wanna have some fun? But lack of fundage got ya down? Here’s an awesome idea:

First, go to Ugotitfirst.com and make sure everyone in your posse is registered (under you, of course...cha-ching!).

Second, give everyone 10 minutes to work their dashboard, and come up with the best deal that they can, that lets you and your peeps have some much needed fun.

For instance, Sam may find a coupon for half-priced shakes at the local drive-in, then discounted movie tickets. Jules may like the group rate coupon for that great laser-tag place, then the buy 1 Slurpee get one free coupon.

When everyone is done finding deals and planning the perfect Friday night, you can then vote for your favorite, and, yup you guessed it...go DO it!

But write all the other ideas down, so the next time you’re all together, you won’t have to waste the first 45 minutes saying, “I dunno...what do YOU wanna do?

Later gaters...I suddenly have a mean hankerin’ for an extra thick strawberry shake!

Ugotitfirst = Get Rich Quick? NO WAY, JOSE!

Check out this hilarious commercial (spoof on the Nigirian Scam):

How many of y’all have received this in email form? Just yesterday, someone offered me 2.9 million dollars! Wowza! Beverly Hills, here I come!

Or better yet, how many of y’all get that email that promises to show you how to make $17,000 by TOMORROW? I get one at least once a week. Oh yeah, and I only have to pay $1000 to learn how. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, we all know that there are millions of get rich quick gigs out there. It makes it almost impossible to tell which 99.9% of the gigs are scams, and which .1% are real opportunities. It can boggle my brain.

But with Ugotitfirst, there’s no guesswork. First of all, we don’t promise that you’ll get rich. All we offer are some cool apps for your mobile phone, great coupons & deals and some extra cash each month. Plain and simple. And 100% FREE!

So yeah, stick with Ugotitfirst, and you’ll never go wrong! You’ll get some sweet savings, some cash in your pocket, and you don’t even have to contact your new Nigerian best friend!

Raising money for your favorite cause

Ok walk with me down memory lane. Remember as a kid when your church or school decided to do a *gasp* FUNDRAISER? Brings up nightmares just thinking about it. Most of my friends and I wanted nothing do with it, but then the blessed school dangled prize incentives in front of us. Like that dazzling golden locket that I just HAD to have.

So yeah, I went out every day, begging my neighbors to buy overpriced chocolate that tasted just a little bit funky. And when I finally got a neighbor to feel sorry for me and buy one, I’d reach into my little cardboard box and pull out...goop! Dang California sun had melted all my merchandise! Like I said—nightmares.

Well, it’s another generation, and luckily, the powers that be have found another, better way to hold fundraisers that won’t have kids in therapy 20 years later (mine says I’m making great progress, by the way).

Take Ugotitfirst, for example. Church need to raise money for new hymnals? School need new computers? Have your church or school register as an affiliate as a charitable foundation (in your organization of course), then have your congregation or students get the word out. Then, that charity gets money for everyone who signs up and starts downloading and using coupons!

And don’t forget, you’re earning a good amount of pocket change as well!

Ok now let’s compare...trying to sell funky melted chocolates, or giving people a free way to contribute AND save some money? Hmmm...tough choice.

Oh yeah, I finally got that gold locket. Turned my neck green the first day...oi.

*Off to make another appointment with my therapist.

Coupons on the Go – Leave Your Coupon Book at Home

I want to know who has done this. You’re thumbing through your “wad” of ads that gets crammed into your mailbox each week, and you see a coupon for your FAVORITE cookies! It’s a pretty good deal, so you start snipping.
You think, “I’m already going to the store, I may as well see what other coupons there are in here.”

You find:

· A buy 10 get one free coupon for toothpaste (who can resist a deal like that?
· A coupon for 50% nail polish (ok so you haven’t wore nail polish since 1998, but 50% off? Wowza!)
· A 10 lb tub of peanut butter on sale for 8.99—regular $16.99 (Woah....what a deal...the kids LOVE PB&J!)

So you get to the store, put all these things in your cart, and as the cashier is ringing you up, you realize that YOU LEFT YOUR COUPONS AT HOME! Frustrated, you decide to just pay for your stuff and get outta there.

On the way home, you’re so mad that you eat the entire box of cookies, and wonder how you’re going to explain 11 tubes of toothpaste and a vat of peanut butter to your husband.

We’ve all done this....right? Right...? *sigh*

Enter Ugotitfirst.

First of all, the coupons come right to your cell phone—no searching through crumpled up oversized ads.

Second, no clipping, cutting, tearing, yanking. The coupons are paperless, and just the right size. *wink*

Third, you’ll never leave those coupons at home again. You’ll always have them at the touch of your fingers on your cell phone.

So yeah, next time you get the urge for a yummy treat, save yourself some trouble and grab a coupon off of Ugotitfirst. You’ll save time and money, and you can leave your coupon book at home (on purpose this time).
