life update + shopkick!

well, happy August lovelies! right now, i'm coming to you from my college campus! i just registered for all my classes and now i'm all signed up! it's crazy to think in a month, i'll be beginning my life as a college student, and not as a high school student. anyways, today's post is about a new app that i've been using called Shopkick

basically, Shopkick is an app where you can check-in to stores (via Bluetooth), scan barcodes or sync your debit/credit card and accumulate points to then earn different rewards, such as gift cards. for example, 6250 kicks (aka points) gets you a $25 gift card to Target or Starbucks.

to be honest, I was very pessimistic going into this because it sounds way too good to be true. however, I looked into it and the companies earn surplus money whenever you scan the barcodes of their products, plus whenever you go to the specific stores to scan items or check-in, you're more likely to look around and potentially buy something.

if you have any interest in checking it out, use my link and download the app (http://get.shopkick.com/modesto56324) and I will give you an opening gift! 

talk to you all next week!

xo,
