This site has various forms of revenue including (but not limited to) affiliate income, advertising revenue, and sponsorships. These income streams may influence what we post on the site. We promise not to endorse anything that we don’t personally believe in and will share our opinions openly (both the good and the bad). However, we encourage you to take due diligence before purchasing any service or product from anywhere (not only here on this site, we’re talking about a good rule of thumb for life in general).

Some links on the site pay a referral bonus (or affiliate income) to us if you use the links on our site to go and purchase items from them. We will try to call out those links specifically when applicable.

This comes at no cost to you (in fact, sometimes you get a deal for buying through our links). The income earned helps to keep this site up and running – so thank you for that!

One program to note specifically: our site is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. But to be honest, we’re going to send you to amazon.com to buy things regardless of if we’re an affiliate. Why? They rock – but you probably already know that.

So, now you know… and we can still be friends, right?
