Wise Bread relies on links to help us gain readership and reach a broader audience of friends and contributors. We really appreciate how our readers and fellow bloggers promote and sustain us, so we'd just like to take a minute to say, "Yay! Thanks a bunch!" to some of the following linksters. We couldn't include everyone - these are just some of our more recent ones!

Greg's months-old ramen tribute is still getting love (talk about longevity!) from the Carnival of Miracles, hosted by Let the Sunshine In.

One of my favorite scent blogs, Now Smell This, offers up some tempting online deals to be had. I have shamelessly cut and pasted the following four deals from their blog (do visit them sometime if you are a perfume addict like me):

Deal at victoriassecret: get a free beauty tote with 14 samples (Escada Sunset Heat seems to be the only fragrance) with any beauty order of $50 or more using coupon code BTYBAG, good through 4/3. New scents include Michael Kors Island Hawaii and Hampton Sun Privet Bloom.

Filed Under: Personal Finance

Today I've got a big helping of podcast goodness coming your way. With 40 episodes on the air and more on the way, Scott at Money Blogger Podcast is the place to get interviews of popular personal finance bloggers. You can listen to the interviews directly from the site or download them to your podcaster.

There's gold in each interview. Here's a chance to hear from the bloggers you usually read.

The one gripe I have is the blinding lime green redesign. (Sorry Scott.)

For easy scanning and bookmarking, here's the complete list of podcasts. The links go to the post of the interview. In addition to the audio, there are liks to sites mentioned in the interview.
