Guys, I literally have been working on this for over a year. I haven’t been able to tell anyone and it’s been SO hard to keep a secret…. I’m starting my own TV Show! AHHH! I can’t believe it!
I have always wanted to do a TV show and even majored in Broadcast Journalism. But life took unexpected turns and God directed me here to run this blog instead. But now, after 6 years of Freebies2Deals, I get to add in a lifelong dream of mine and I couldn’t be more excited!
Here’s what’s going on and what help I would love from all of you:
After working with a local network to put my show on-air, we just haven’t been able to move quickly enough with their corporate offices & all of the legal mumbo jumbo. So instead of sitting around and waiting, I have decided to start the show launch on YouTube in January of 2016 and hopefully continue to figure out the TV solution during the year. However, one thing that I love about the YouTube option is that EVERYONE can watch–no matter where you live!
If you have noticed, I’ve been playing around with YouTube videos over the last two months and getting a feel for what I would like the show to look like and feel like. But here is where you come in:
I need YOUR help picking the most perfect name for the show!!
The show is all about “Living the Ultimate Life for Less”. So there will be a range of different topics and videos like: How-To Save, Beauty Favorites, Travel Tips, Grocery Tips, Shopping Online, and ways to save during different Holidays and peak times during the year. I’ll have a chance to share my favorite things and what things our family personally does to “Live the Ultimate Life for Less” and more.
Ideally, I would love to have my name (Melea or Melea Johnson) and Freebies2Deals somehow connected in the title. The obvious ideas I have are:
- The Freebies2Deals Show with Melea Johnson
- The Freebies2Deals Show with Melea
- Melea Johnson’s Freebies2Deals
- Melea’s Freebies2Deals
- The Melea Show
So I definitely need your help because that is all I have been able to come up with–and I know you guys have some great ideas!
During my show, I am also inviting other bloggers, influencers, instagramers and guests to come on and share what THEY are really good at–and we will add in a money-saving twist. So I would also love to know who some of your favorites are that I should invite to be a guest on the show!
I seriously would love your input, your ideas and anything else you want to add. I hope you guys are excited for this additional venture for me and Freebies2Deals. And don’t worry, the blog will still be here in all of its wonderous glory. 😉 But now we will have visual/video content that you can watch easily on your phone, waiting for the carpool, at the doctor’s office and at home.
For those of you who submit a name idea or idea(s) for the show and share some of your favorite people you would love to have be guests on the show, you will be automatically entered to win an Amazon Gift Card! I will be giving a bunch away–and I’ll give even more away if we have a ton of submissions. So head over here to fill out the submission form. Or fill it out below.
Thanks for all of your support over the years!
I can’t wait to share this show with you guys and have you be a part of it!

It has to have Freebies2deals in the name!!! and I don’t think you need your last name. Freebies2deals with Melea is my pick.

The Malea Show- you could have grocery store managers tell us how to find the best deals

Yay! This is great news. I can’t wait to see the show. My vote is “The Melea Show” too.
