			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Save Up is just two weeks away! In fourteen days, you&#8217;ll be here in sunny SoCal having dinner with your fellow DealPros and with some of the Savings.com team at one of our very favorite Mexican restaurants in Santa Monica, El Cholo!</p>
<p>A common (and clearly very important) question that comes up before Save Up is always, &#8220;What should I pack?!&#8221; Let us ease your anxiety with a few bits of info&#8230;</p>
<ul>
<li>Save Up sessions will be taking place in the Savings.com office. In the grand tradition of SoCal tech companies, we have a very relaxed office environment, so there&#8217;s no need to bust out the business suits and pencil skirts. Jeans and a shirt will do just fine. If you feel like getting spiffed up a bit, be our guest, but just know it&#8217;s not required.</li>
<li>Our office is one great big warehouse-type space, so the temperature is a little unpredictable. It can be quite cold in the morning and very warm in the afternoon. We suggest layers so that you&#8217;re prepared for whatever the weather has in store.</li>
<li>While the office is very casual, we&#8217;ll have a video and photo team in the office to cover the event, and we&#8217;re expecting a couple of guests from the media. Additionally, we&#8217;re scheduling time for each of you to sit down with the video team to do a short interview that&#8217;ll be used in some Savings Nation footage that&#8217;ll be implemented in the class curriculum. So, be comfortable, but also be aware that you&#8217;ll be on video at some point during the conference, so plan accordingly.</li>
<li>We&#8217;re going to two dinners outside of the office. They&#8217;re both at casual places, so again, no need to get fancy. One of the venues is partially outdoors, so bring a sweater or a light jacket as it tends to get cold in the evenings, especially in the beach cities like Santa Monica.</li>
<li>We&#8217;re hosting a red carpet cocktail party on Saturday night, so if you want to get gussied up, this is the night to do it. The Savings.com staff who&#8217;ll be in attendance have been asked to wear cocktail dresses (for the ladies) and nice pants and a collared shirt (for the gentlemen). For some direction on what to wear, check out the Red Carpet video from last year&#8217;s Save Up party.</li>
</ul>
<p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/wr11XRkqpMs" frameborder="0" width="560" height="315"></iframe></p>
<p>That pretty much covers it. If you have any questions about the event, what to bring, what to expect, etc., please feel free to get in touch with Sara (sara@savings.com) or with Rebecca (rbendel@savings.com).</p>
<p>See you soon!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Save Up is rapidly approaching, and we&#8217;re working to finalize and fill out the <a href="http://saveup.savings.com/agenda/" target="_blank">agenda</a>. The bulk of the agenda is focused on Savings Nation curriculum training, media &amp; presentation training and publicity &amp; sponsorship training, but there are a couple of times open for Savings.com-led sessions. In the past, we&#8217;ve had Savings.com staff members teach on the topics of SEO, PR, monetization tips &amp; tricks, etc.</p>
<p>As in past years, we want to make sure we&#8217;re creating an agenda for an event that you guys can&#8217;t wait to attend. So, to help us make every session of Save Up as stellar as possible, we&#8217;d like to ask you to vote for the two topics in the list below that you&#8217;d most like to learn about from Savings.com team members.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Toni is a military wife and a stay at home (schooling) mom to seven kids. When she&#8217;s not homeschooling the kids, she likes to read, sew, cook, yard sale, and write. Toni started TheHappyHousewife.com in January of 2008 as a resource for those who wanted to better manage their homes. From recipes to budgeting, you’ll find real life, practical ways to live well, save more, and have fun! Being a “happy housewife” is not some ideal of a bygone era. Women today are decision makers, influencers, and game changers, so let’s not waste our opportunities!</p>
