SHARE SITTERCITY AND MAKE SOME SPRING CHA-CHING!

From the beginning, we've been taught the virtues of sharing. And while we are sure that you always shared your toys and snacks out of purely noble intentions (right?), we don't think there's anything wrong with giving you a little extra incentive. So, to sincerely thank you for sharing Sittercity, we'd like to do a little sharing of our own. Every time you refer parents to Sittercity.com, you get $10 in Fandango Bucks and they get $10 off their registration. Everybody wins with the Sittercity Referral Program!

Imagine entering a world where baby keepsake charms are stylish rather than sappy, and diaper clutches are chic rather than, well, crappy. Welcome to the world of Cool Mom Picks, perhaps the HOTTEST shopping blog on the web featuring non-mainstream gear and gifts that you don't have to be a parent to appreciate.

Regardless of whether you're a mom, you'll love the site's cheeky, occasionally sassy reviews of fabulous web finds that you can add to your babysitting bag of tricks. Check out activity-filled magazines, an all-purpose product to soothe everything from bug bites to chapped lips to scrapes and cuts, plus indie rock CDs that won't make you run screaming from the room after the 47th consecutive listen. Not to mention Cool Mom Picks offers exclusive discount codes and tons of free giveaways in nearly every blog entry.

This month, don't miss their comprehensive Mother's Day Gift Guide , featuring all kinds of creative ideas for all kinds of mamas with all kinds of budgets. Babysitting clients, friends with kids, even your own mom can appreciate these unique gifts. Sure beats the �here's a coupon for a five-minute massage, compliments of yours truly� gift.

You love that patent leather Prada tote � it's so trendy this season! You can just picture yourself strutting down the city streets, the bag's sleek exterior glistening in the sun while everyone stares to admire your style�

Well, snap out of it. Do you know how much that bag costs? At least a year's worth of babysitting jobs. Not to mention the patent leather trend could disappear quicker than the kids at bath time.

Instead of dropping your hard-earned cash on one designer bag, what if you could spend the same amount on six, rotating them based on the season's IT styles? Head over to BagBorrowOrSteal.com, and you can do just that.

At Bag, Borrow or Steal, you pay a low monthly membership fee (between $5 and $9.95) for instant access to hundreds of designer handbags. You �borrow� the bags � 3 to 5 at a time! - keeping them for as long as you want at an affordable weekly or monthly rate until you return them. And if you fall in love with a bag, you may be able to �steal� it to keep in your closet forever. Add items to your Wish List, access the exclusive Wait List and check out the Outlet Store to skip the borrowing and go straight to the stealing! Just don't bring the bag on the job � Gucci and finger paints don't exactly mix.
