Hey Everyone,

I know it's been a while since I've posted, but know that I have been extremely busy. Which is why I've been using Twitter. I've been microblogging quite a bit, and have added the links to this post.  I am also in the middle of writing my Shecky's Girl's Nigh Out review (which was awesome, BTW).  I'll be uploading pics and details of the event, the luscious swag, and vendors in the coming days.  In the meantime, enjoy the latest steals and deals!

Hey Everyone,

Hope you're having an awesome weekend so far. If you haven't found anything to do, this issue of Frugal 'n Fabulous is sure to perk you up.  After the jump, you'll find free food, cosmetics, events, and more.  Have a fabulous time!

UPDATES!: $10 off a regular price ticket for the Atlanta event with code: FAB10OFF.  This will grant you VIP entrance and a swag bag worth over $125. Last chance to get your ticket is Friday, November 13.

Also, if you want to make a few bucks, one of the vendors, Dazzle Me Jewels, is looking for an upbeat, energetic young lady to help sell their fab rings at the event. Compensation is $60 per night.  Email Mrs. Sharon Deziel at DSDeziel@aol.com.  Event details below.

Last season I brought you the ins and outs of Fashion's Night Out.  Most recently, I blogged about Victoria's Secret's Secret Shopping Event (which was awesome, by the way).  Well, it's time to clear your calendars again, because Shecky's is coming to Atlanta (and a many other major cities around the country -click here for details).  For all you who have never had the Shecky's experience, it's like a shopping and sampling event for women. Upon entrance, you will experience the latest creations of hip designers, sample products for free, refresh yourself with posh cocktails (also free), and have an all around great time with your girls. Those who purchase a ticket, will get an exclusive swag bag, bursting at the seams with full size products and samples. Check the details below (swag pic included!).

Hey Everyone, I hope you all had a fabulous, fun-filled weekend. If it wasn't, hopefully the following will cheer you up:

There are quite a few freebies, and deals to be had this week. Check them out after the jump. Have fun "shopping" this week!

It's that time of year again. The Theatre Communications Group and its partners are sponsoring Free Night of Theater 2009.  Each reservation includes two complimentary tickets to attend a participating theater across the U.S. from October 15th-31st.  I'm sure I don't have to tell you what a value that is.  75,000 tickets are up for grabs, so hurry and get yours before it's too late.  These go fast. 

More freebies after the jump.

For those of you unfamiliar with FreePeats, it's like FreeCycle for Mommies, except most items are brand new, like new, or gently used. If you are expecting, or you are a new mommy, you will undoubtedly realize how expensive child-rearing is. FreePeats can help connect you with experienced mothers that want to unload baby and maternity stuff they don't need.

What can I say, I am a sucker for beauty samples. I love trying new creams, elixirs, potions, and lotions, which is why I've named Mario Badescu's sample offering, MVF of the day.

If you haven't already redeemed your in-store coupons, today is a great day to do so. As a reminder, I've listed a few that have already been posted (and are about to expire), plus a few new ones:

I'm back, relaxing and recuperating from my trip. I hope all of you were able to catch my Twitter updates while I was gone. If not, make sure you sign up for an account and follow me, so you won't miss out on any more great freebies. I update Twitter with posts from this blog, as well as use it as a sort of massive texting tool when I'm out of town to update everyone.  Once you sign up, you can even link your cell phone to your account, so you can get updates on the go.  If you have a smartphone, you may be able to download Twitter specific software, which makes using Twitter a breeze on your cell. If you missed me while I was gone, here are some of the most recent posts on Twitter...
