Hey you, my taco twin!

It’s finally here… the reason we started doing this newsletter in the first place…

🌮 FREEBIES AT TACO BELL! 🌮

It’s not the only deal we’re talking about today but it IS a big deal.

And I (Jill) especially love this one because it reminds me of my favorite game I play with my niece and nephews.

We call the game ‘taco’ and essentially I chase them, catch them, and wrap them up in a blanket (like a taco), before making some sort of statement about how they’re no good to eat and so I unroll them out of the blanket; kinda like rolling down a hill. 🤸

Now that you know that weird fact, check out the details on these deals… and let us know about your fun made-up games!

🌮 FREE Tacos on taco Tuesday at Taco Bell. Go get yours on August 29th (and you can go again on September 5th). This is a dream come true, and most definitely the reason we started this Friendletter, hoping there would be a Taco Bell freebie we could announce. And 👏here 👏it 👏is!

🍦 On Wednesdays Carvel offers buy one, get one FREE ice cream sundaes. Enjoy yourself a little hump-day pick-me-up and Summertime treat before the weather turns cold and everyone becomes obsessed with PSLs. 🙃

🏖️ National Beach Day is August 30th. Get in 1 last hoorah in the sun! You can also organize or join a beach clean-up crew to help preserve and care for our lovely beaches; and play in the sand and water. Search your local city page for beach day activities, or check here for clean-ups in your area.

Someone filmed bats upside down and it looks like a goth nightclub. Credits to whoever filmed these seemingly chill goths.

🦇 It is with great hesitation that I share that August 28th is International Bat Night. I recently encountered a bat INSIDE my sister's house so I’m not too enthused by this event, but for those interested in learning more about these nocturnal creatures, check your local, state, or national park for free events like this one happening in Kentucky this week!

🤑 Get your money right today, August 28, and all the days after. Download Clo Bare Money Coach's free 30+ page guide that will take you from developing your money mindset to budgeting to learning how to invest.

📱 Your Cell Phone Bill 📱

This is your semi-occasional reminder to check your phone bill and if you’re nearing the end of your contract, consider moving to an MVNO.

What’s an MVNO? A Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) is a company that does not own a mobile spectrum license but sells mobile services under its brand name using the network of a licensed mobile operator.

Without all the logistical expenses, an MVNO can save you a lot of money on your phone plan. And now that most MVNOs are now owned by these licensed operators, the service is on par with their pricier plans.

You hear us talk about Mint Mobile on the show all the time because it’s by far our listeners’ favorite. Mint is currently offering a promo on Unlimited Everything plans for $15 per month for 3 months.

And your secret tip: you can lock in that introductory deal if you renew for 12 months, bringing your cell phone bill down to $180 for an entire year.

So if you’re looking to save money on your cell phone bill, check out this deal at Mint Mobile.

And if you snag the deal let us know about it on our Bill of The Week line!
