We chose a winner for the pig-naming Bye Bye Birdie contest. Watch the video below to see what name won. We love this new name!

In this week’s video, the deals are all related to the Academy Awards. Well, to be fair, this theme is mostly an excuse for Hayes to make jokes about blue cat people, but we found some deals to talk about, too. And we wanted a chance to dress up a little. So, enjoy the show!

As always, links to the deals we mention in the video are posted below.

It’s Friday! This week, we’re itching for some adventure. It’s been a long, long, long winter and we’ve been working really hard the past few months. It’s time for an adventure! So all the deals we’re sharing this week are full of adventure. We also finally have an answer to the question “Where is my jetpack?” Links to these deals are posted below the video.

Plus, you might notice that we’re wearing matching shirts. These are our kickball jerseys – Hayes and I play on a kickball team here in Austin called The Whales. Our new season starts tonight, so we’re dressed for game day. Go The Whales!
