Miss Burton Unmasks a Prince Review

In Jennifer Moore's Miss Burton Unmasks a Prince, The Burtons send their daughter, Meg, to England in the hopes that she will marry well and save the family from financial ruin. Bookish Meg Burton dreams of romance and wants nothing to do with the English aristocracy. She finds friendship in a stable hand, Carlo, who helps her to find her self. Carlo lies about his identity and is actually a Spanish prince. Will Meg discover Carlo's true identity? 

The character of Meg reminds me of Jane Austin's character Catherine from Northanger Abbey, but with much more common sense and down-to-earth rational. Meg wants to be swept off her feet and is fascinated with the sensational, but realizes reality. Like all of Jennifer Moore's romance, Miss Burton Unmasks a Prince contains some adventure. It's not necessary to read Jennifer Moore's books in order, but I would suggest reading Becoming Lady Lockwood and Emma's Campaign before reading Miss Burton Unmasks a Prince. A few of the characters in Miss Burton Unmasks a Prince are developed further in previous books. I enjoyed reading this book and found it to be a fun read. Find Miss Burton Unmasks a Prince at your local library or on Amazon.

Saving Money with Checkout51 (and FREE Shampoo)

When my mom was visiting, she noticed me taking pictures of my receipts and uploading it online. She asked what I was doing and I explained that I can get money back sometimes with my receipts. I don't have a smart phone so I use Checkout51 to help me save on my groceries. I usually scan my receipt or take a picture of it with my digital camera and upload it online. Checkout51 gives you money back on items that you purchase that correspond with the items they have listed for the week. The list varies week to week. The items vary from household cleaning supplies, diapers, personal care items, crackers, and more. Checkout51 sends you a check after you accumulate $20 worth of cash back. Right now, for every friend you refer Checkout51 will add $5 to your cash back rewards and every NEW member who uploads a receipt will get $5 added to their account.

There's also a really great deal going on with Herbal Essences Shampoo. Last Sunday's coupon circular contained a $3 off 2 bottles of Herbal Essences Shampoo and Checkout51 is offering $3 off 2 bottles of Herbal Essences Shampoo. Walgreens and a few other stores (from what I've seen online) are having sales where Herbal Essences Shampoo is $3 a bottle so if you use the coupon and Checkout51, you can get 2 bottles of Herbal Essences Shampoo essentially for FREE. Even if you don't use this brand of shampoo, this is an inexpensive item that you could donate to local community groups aiding the homeless or refugees.
