About Me
Welcome to the Rather-Be-Shopping.com Blog. My name is Kyle, and yeah, I am a guy who would “rather be shopping” (insert joke here), but my blog is all about saving money when not only shopping but in everyday life. As a father of 3 small kids and living on a tight budget, I know the secrets of frugal living and making your paycheck go as far as possible. My wife is a stay-at-home mom and I would not want it any other way. I blog about online coupons, frugal ways to save money, shopping tips, personal finance tips, and of course the adventures and mis-adventures of raising 3 active kids.
On a personal note, I live in beautiful Redding, California, which is in the north part of the state, a couple hours north of Sacramento. I am a recent MBA graduate with a specialization in e-commerce. As I mentioned earlier, I am married and have three young children. Oldest is 6 and the youngest is 9 months old, so my wife and I are REALLY busy!! Please drop me a note or a comment and let me know how you like the site. Looking forward to hearing from y’all! This picture was taken in December 2006 by the local newspaper, The Redding Record Searchlight, for a story they did on me and my online business. Pretty boring, I was just sitting at my computer.
Thanks for stopping by and feel free to click around, I promise nothing bad will happen!
About Product Reviews: I will and have done product reviews on my blog. If you are interested, please contact me about how to go about sending me your product for review. DISCLAIMER: I only do honest product reviews where I discuss the Pros and Cons of a particular product or gift idea. If you are looking for me to just rave about how great your product is and not give an honest review, then do not bother sending it to me. My readers deserve more than that!
