I like your beauty videos and videos on using money saving apps.
We will miss you but totally understand. Thank-You from the bottom of my pocket book. Are you still going to be doing the yearly trips?
hope we can still do those! You can still get our discounted group rates though Get Away Today–but choose your time to go. (It's a little easier that way). So if you do want to check into those, just tell them MELEA instead of Freebies2Deals since I don't run that site any more. Thanks for all of your support!
I loved videos about saving money with groceries. Food is expensive so tips to help out with that we're always nice 🙂 sad for you but excited !
I have been following you for a while now and I too had to cut back with the crazy couponing and deal hunting all the time and I feel so much better! Even though it kills me to pay a little more sometimes, I LOVE the extra time I spend with my family rather than hunting the extra savings! I loved seeing your collaboration video with Bonnie (I went to junior high and high school with her and her husband and didn't even know they had a YouTube channel) and would also like to see videos on saving on home improvements. Thanks for all you do! Hope you feel better soon!
We are going to be remodeling parts of our house and updating it. So I'm hoping to video those for you guys too!
Best of luck and I am excited to still see you around. I have loved the Christmas money saving tips videos. The video for the cartwheel app was good too. I couldn't figure it out before your video.
Oh nice! I'm so glad it helped!
Good for you doing what you need to do for you and your kids! Of course we'll miss your blog, but I'm so glad we still have The Melea show! Rest up and we're praying for your quick recovery! (READ THIS NEXT PART WHEN YOU'RE FEELING BETTER LOL) I love all the travel tips – and I'm dying for something on renting cars (especially bigger cars like minivan/SUV)! Also, can we get a video on shopping for good 2nd hand deals?? You're aweosme!
Yep, I will add those to the pipeline! Thanks Amy!
I love the beauty videos! Good luck with your recovery! I look forward to following you on instagram.
grocery shopping
travel tips are always great for this family of 5. thanks
Family is the most important! 🙂 I've learned a lot from you over the years so thank you for all the time and effort you've invested! I enjoy all the tips on your show! Especially apps that make life easier, home decor in a budget, fashion/beauty tips, and travel/activities to do as a family. Keep up the great work and speedy recovery!
Perfect, I will keep doing those. Thanks!
I also have endometriosis. I am glad to see you are doing well after the surgery. My second surgery it took me three weeks to recover. I am very interested in selling clothes online to make $$.
Yes, this surgery this time around is kicking my trash. I was thinking 5 days. Now Im thinking full recovery will be more like 2-3 weeks. But that selling clothing video will be coming up soon!
Thanks so much for all you've done! We'll miss you!
So sad but so happy for you!
I love the makeup and grocery videos.
So sad that we won't see you on F2D anymore, but family is definitely the most important thing! Thanks for everything you did!!! I scored so many great deals thanks to you. I would tell my husband that my "deal lady" helped me find another great deal. I am glad you are still going to do the Melea Show. I love that there is a wide variety of videos. Please keep that up. I love finding awesome deals but beauty tips are always appreciated. The travel tips have been fun too. Just keep doing what you've been doing.
Thanks Suzanne, I will! 🙂
How could anyone be mad you are making a decision that involves what's best for your family… The most important thing in my book! It sounds like we're still going to get to enjoy a lot of you and that makes a lot of us happy including me! Congratulations on your decision and best of luck for a speedy recovery. ❤️
Thanks Jill! I appreciate it!
love the beauty tips…! will miss you on freebies to deals…. love you show the most glad you are doing that.
Thanks Kristi!
I'm so sad but happy for you. I have been a follower for years and you really helped when hubby was in school! we are expecting out first child soon and I would love to know your must haves for new baby
Ooooo, that is a great one! I'll put that in the pipeline!
I'd love to see a video on how to sell your clothing, etc. Great idea! I'm also all about finding deals at the drugstores, as well as retail clothing stores. I'm the same way as you. I refuse to pay full price for anything.
That video should be coming up soon! Hang tight. 🙂
Good for you, enjoy those babies.
Hope you feel better fast.
Sad to see you leave the Freebies to Deals site (I really loved the morals expressed on it! :p But I understand following the answer to your prayers! ;-)) I am so excited to see you on your video channel! I just think you have the cutest personality, and I love watching you! 🙂 Also, I really enjoy vacation/travel tips! We love cruises, and so we love saving money to go as often as we can! :-)
Oh thanks Kendra! That was super sweet of you to say. 🙂 More travel tips will be on the way.
I love all of your travel tip videos and would love to see more!
Oh my gosh, you scared me! I thought you were giving up The Melea Show also, whew! I love F2D, but you make the show, you just have the "it" factor that makes these programs worth coming back to. I am a guy in my late 30's, but I find all your content relevant. I was at Disneyland last week and used many of your DLand tips, and they all worked, thank-you!!! I also took the GrayLine shuttle to Universal and wanted to say that the best price round trip plus Universal tix I could find was also booked through Get Away Today, so THANK-YOU for turning me on to that site. I REALLY wish I had your Universal Tips before I went, but I'll go again possibly in the fall and they should help then. Also, Don't forget that The Walking Dead attraction is opening full time at Universal in July. Thank-you for all you do, and I wish you the very best in your recovery.
James-
Very cool James! So glad the tips helped. I wish I had the Universal video done too. But I'm hoping it will be up in the next week and you can use those tips in the future. Thanks for watching!
You are so sweet to be so worried about everyone else while you just had surgery for endometriosis?!?!? Holy freaking soldier women!!! And you look that good?? NOT fair! But to answer the question I would l be to see more money saving tips on travel an vacationing! P.s your amazing.
Oh, you are a sweetheart! I didn't feel that hot, but I tried to put on a good smile for you guys!
Malea – don't get sucked into doing more than you can do. Slow down and enjoy your children/family.
Thanks Laura, I'm definitely working on it!
I'd love to know more about selling my stuff online;)
Coming soon! Stay tuned. 🙂
Best of luck to you and thank you for the years of hard work. I like the grocery tips and deals and the Disneyland deals and tips. I would also love the option of continuing the Secret Santa project. I get so much joy by giving back to families in need and you've always been able to get specifics for the needs and wants which truly impacts the families. I will greatly miss F2D but as a mom of young children, I applaud your decision and I'm happy you will have more time to play with them and to watch them grow. It goes so fast and I am so blessed to be home with our little ones. Enjoy them and your time together as a family.
Thanks Sara! I'd love to do the project as well. But Im not sure I've figured out how to do that with just a video channel yet. So I'm gonna be thinking about how to make it work. Thanks for your support!
I am Happy for you! I wish there would have been a little heads up on Fb2D but understandable. Glad to be following you and that you will be able to be with your family that is most important! I hope to hear lots about Travel (I love your D-land Saving tips) and all the rest! Thanks and Congrats! :)
I wish I could have given you guys a heads up too! I fought for it. Sorry! But thank you for your support! I'll get a lot of travel videos in the works. 🙂
Melea! I will miss you on the blog, but kudos to you for putting your family first. I'm glad you aren't disappearing all together. I guess I'd better start doing Instagram! Thanks for all the deals you have shown your readers in the past and I look forward seeing what this new chapter brings! Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
Instagram is probably your best bet. Sign up for the emails too in the YouTube Description Above–I'm going to start sending those out regularly too!
Recently found your channel and I love it. Hope you are feeling well soon and enjoying your children and life as you want. Will continue to follow along and learn. Thank you for great ideas, tips and videos.
Awesome, Robin! Thanks for sticking around! 🙂
