I spent the past few days trying to figure out how to “fix” this problem, that you guys can’t see my posts now.  Which is a MAJOR bummer- and then I came across this wonderful post from Deals 4 Dummies– Jeana said I could cross post, since I am a major dope and would never have been able to explain it so well- THANKS JEANA!!  Of course, her page is cited- so if you want to see Have Sippy Will Travel’s posts, just look for that page where it says Deals 4 Dummies.  If you are a fan for BOTH pages- do them both and you will see them all  🙂

I can’t wait to have you back and seeing my posts.  I hope this helps!

Hi all! So I’m sure you all have noticed the recent Facebook changes. I really didn’t think much about them until I realized that today, I had been blogging my little heart out and that I haven’t gotten very much reaction from you guys. I had a room full of crickets.  And it didn’t feel nice :(
I started to get a little sad, and then I realized that many of you have probably been MISSING all the deals I have been posting lately because of those new Facebook changes!!  Ack!!  What in the world am I doing slaving away at my computer all day finding you deals and freebies if you are going to MISS them?!??!
If you want to make sure you aren’t missing out on my deal feed on Facebook, I need you guys to do something for me really quick.
Don’t worry – it won’t hurt :)

  1. In Facebook, click on the down arrow in the upper right hand corner (next to your name) and choose “Account Settings”.
  2. Now choose “notifications” on the left side menu.
  3. UNCHECK the “email frequency”.  You want it to be BLANK like the picture above. (thanks, Freebie Corner)
  4. Now, go to your Facebook Home Page
  5. In that center column is your news feed.  I need you to scroll down until you find one from me.  It doesn’t matter which one, just find one.
  6. Now hover your mouse over the top right corner until this little blue arrow appears.  Click it and choose the first option “Mark as Top Story“.

Ok so what you have just done is told Facebook

  1. Leave my notifications alone and show me everything
  2. HEY – I want to see my deals from Crazy Coupon Mommy – Quit hiding them from me!!!

So from now on, you should start to see the deals again.  Supposedly FB “learns” what you like by your actions so this may take a while to get through.  If you want to make sure it happens faster – then do this every time you see a post from me and that will make sure they get the hint!!
Another way to make sure you never miss a deal from your favorite coupon blogs on Facebook is to Make a List. This is a new feature and my friend over at My CNY Mommy made a great video tutorial on how to do it – have a looksey!
