Roanoke, Haircuts, and Bing Rewards

Happy almost-weekend! I don't know about you, but it's been a crazy week over here. Rob and I are off to Virginia this morning to spend a few days in Roanoke before heading to Williamsburg for a wedding on Saturday. I'm so excited to see my family and spend a few days at the lake!

This afternoon I finally have a much-needed acupuncture appointment, and tomorrow I'm getting my hair cut. Lately I've been thinking that it might be time for a change. What do you guys think? Part of me wants to go lighter, part of me wants to go shorter, and still a big part of me wants to just keep doing what I'm doing and leave it alone. I tend to err on the side of just leaving it alone.

Haircut or not, before I head out of town I wanted to share a new-to-me service that rewards you for the online searching that we already do every day.

Bing Rewards allows you to earn rewards for using Bing as your search engine--it's easy as that! You can rack up gift cards to Starbucks, Amazon, and Sephora (among others). We are currently in the midst of making the most summer in Minneapolis (we're moving soon--more on that later!), so I've been doing a lot of Minneapolis parks, lakes, and restaurant searching online over the past few weeks. Bing has made it easy and even better, they're practically paying me to do it. I think you all know how I feel about coffee, and a Starbucks gift card in my wallet every now and then is nothing to complain about.

Bing has helped me discover some of my more recent favorite spots in the city, and I'm so excited to share more of them with you this summer! They even have a super-intuitive mobile app to make searching on the go easier.

So if you aren't using Bing Rewards yet, give them a try--sign up today and start earning rewards! What will you search for this summer?
