I am a coupon clipping, dealing seeking, product reviewing Momma and I LOVE it! I am married to the rock in my life, Brad, and we have been married 7 years and I couldn’t love another more. We have 3 beautiful children. Presley is our 7 year old daughter, Hank is our 8 month old and we also have Gabriel who left our life too soon in 2009 and awaits us in Heaven. I’ve only been blogging for about 6 months, but have become completely addicted and can’t wait to attend my first BlogHer Convention in 2012.

I know all of you are very busy due to the time of year it is. That being said, it may be the perfect time for you to sign up for manilla so you know where your finances are at. I signed up a long time ago. I received emails telling me when I have a bill due and in how many days. The reminders are nice because I don’t always remember the due dates and it saves me from going through the mounds of mail on my desk to figure what is due when.
Here’a a synopsis of what manilla is about:
“What is Manilla? Manilla is a free web based service that helps consumers better manage all of their household accounts, including financial, utilities, subscriptions and travel rewards programs, in one secure place online. Under a single password, Manilla provides customers with an automated, organized view of all of their account information, text and/or email reminders to pay bills and unlimited storage of account documents that Manilla has seamlessly retrieved for the consumer.
Why is Manilla necessary? Most people have more than 20 different household accounts, including three to four credit cards, several travel and hotel rewards accounts, multiple magazine and newspaper subscriptions, plus cable, phone, and other assorted utility bills. In order to stay on top of all this, people have to manage daily incoming paper mail, an array of online usernames and passwords, and websites in order to access important account information and take action. Manilla seamlessly retrieves all your account information – current balances, previous payments, upcoming bills due – and stores it for you in one secure place. Most importantly, you need only one password to view, manage and organize it all.”

The hardest part was for me to decide what photo I wanted to use to create my puzzle. I ended up choosing my eldest cat, Mr. Mu. Mr. Mu thinks he’s all that and more. He’s sitting in the chair that I have plants in outside – how dare he! He dares to do many things – trust me. I uploaded the picture and began to edit it to my liking. I was able to crop the picture and add text. It would have been nice to have been able to remove the date (displayed in red) but that’s okay – it will just be the added memory of when Mr. Mu decided my flower chair was his.
Unsure as to what to expect once I had my photo puzzle, I was pleased to see it mailed in a box with the picture of Mr. Mu on the outside. Inside, I found puzzle pieces made of thick cardboard – thicker than what you’d find in a big name box puzzle. The puzzle is of a shiny gloss that appears to resist fingerprints. The cuts of the pieces match perfectly. However, one thing I am having a hard time adjusting to is the cut itself. As you can see in the puzzle picture above, the cut lines are just as prominent after the puzzle is put together. They are a grayish-white and take away from the picture. Aside from that, I was very pleased with customized puzzle. The processing time was super fast. Checkout was easy.
Creating your own custom puzzle is as easy as:
1. Choose your personalized jigsaw puzzle size, number of pieces and free graphic design
3. Specify your preferable picture puzzle packing option and delivery plan
4. Upload your photo
5. Confirm your personalized puzzle order
