Have You Given up on Your New Year’s Resolution?

January 31, 2014 by Beeb 4 Comments

Kenmore

I attended the Kenmore Blogger Summit last year.

It’s the last day of January, and predictably, many people have long since written off their New Year’s Resolutions – according to a new survey by Harris Interactive on behalf of Sears, 53% of Americans have already given up the ghost on their resolution. To help keep you motivated, Kmart and Sears have teamed up with frugal expert Andrea Woroch for some fast tips for staying on track with common goals, along with some product recommendations from the ShopYourWay “Resolve to Redeem” New Year’s Sale:

Eating Better: To save time, Andrea recommends picking one night per week to chop up healthy vegetables and fruit in advance so it’s ready-to-go through the week, thus reducing temptation to hit the drive-thru for a quick fix. 35% of those surveyed stated that getting a new kitchen appliance motivates them to cook healthy – if this sounds like you, then you can save $20 on this Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juicer at Kmart; ShopYourWay Rewards members get an extra $5 off.

Exercise: Working out at home, either by following fitness videos online or using home gym equipment, is one way to stay on track. Try DailyHiit.com for free workout videos – or if you fall into the 38% surveyed who said that a new treadmill would motivate them to exercise more, use your ShopYourWay Rewards points to save on a new NordicTrack T6.1 Treadmill.

Togetherness: With Valentine’s Day coming up, it’s a great time to get on that resolution for keeping date night going! Andrea suggests looking at afternoon movie matinees or restaurant happy hours as an inexpensive but fun way to get out of the house.

For more tips from Andrea on how to keep New Year’s momentum going, click here! For more product suggestions, visit ShopYourWay Rewards’ “Resolve to Redeem” page for more 2014 deals.

    That’s why I never liked NY’s resolutions, because I feel like you give up on them so quickly. Instead, I like to set small and large goals for myself throughout the year.

    I didn’t make one this year, partly because I didn’t feel dedicated enough to stick with it.

    I LOVE Andrea’s tip of picking one night per week to chop up healthy vegetables and fruit in advance so it’s ready-to-go through the week! I’m guilty of running through the drive-thru when I know I have nothing ready to eat at home…this would greatly diminish that need!
