What would you give up to go to the Super Bowl? With the year's most highly anticipated sporting event just days away, a new CouponCabin.com survey reveals what major life events U.S. adults would miss to attend a Super Bowl game featuring their favorite NFL team. Of those who have a favorite NFL team, the top response was a vacation at 23 percent, followed by:

• An important work responsibility – 21 percent
• Wedding of a close friend or family member – 20 percent
• Funeral of a loved one – 19 percent
• Birth of their child – 15 percent

This survey was conducted online within the United States by Harris Interactive on behalf of Coupon Cabin from January 9th - 11th, 2012 among 2,625 adults ages 18 and older.

Missing major life events for a Super Bowl game demonstrates the NFL football game's widespread popularity among Americans. Nearly four-in-ten (37 percent) U.S. adults said the Super Bowl is the best major sporting event, with only nine percent saying the same of the MLB World Series and 7 percent saying the same of the NCAA March Madness Championship. In addition, 56 percent of U.S. adults said they plan to watch the Super Bowl this year. Men are significantly more likely to watch the Super Bowl this year at 67 percent, compared to 46 percent of women.

I'm a big fan of sending photo Christmas cards to friends and family because I love how personal and customized you can make each year's card.  My family has fun with the theme of every annual Christmas card and we try to do something that reflects how we're feeling and what we're up to in that particular year.

Well, that level of personalization is no longer just for Christmas cards.  The folks at Minted have designed a myriad of ways for your child to express themselves too with their own classroom Valentine's Day cards!  I had the chance to review the wide selection of patterns, options and upgrades available at Minted.com.  Keep reading to learn more!

In Africa, a child dies every 45 seconds. This life-threatening disease is caused by parasites that are transmitted to people through bites of infected mosquitoes. Highest at risk are poor communities who cannot afford treatment or have limited access to healthcare, trapping families in a downward spiral of poverty. Ninety percent of Malaria related deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa.

ING Activewear, Touch The World and the designers associated with this project are all personally committed to launching one of the largest initiatives to help prevent the millions of African children and adults from dying of Malaria every year. Supporters will be playing a direct role to raise crucial funding needed to bring this technology to the masses for support, prevention and education to the more than 225 million cases of Malaria reported each year worldwide.

Not sure what brides are really thinking?  This year's sixth-annual "What's on Brides' Minds" survey from David's Bridal reveals what's really in store for 2012 as brides everywhere gear up for the biggest day of their lives. From uncovering what brides are planning, choosing and even now sharing, this year's results may surprise you.

While brides still know best and are sticking to their budgets, the 2012 survey uncovers new trends that are beginning to take shape, such as sharing resources—with more than a third of brides open to hopping on-board. It also shows that when it comes to planning, brides will trust their significant other over their closest friends and family -- including their mothers! Plus, brides feel finding the one (the dress that is) may be harder than it looks, with 47% of brides saying their wedding dress is nothing like what they pictured when they were young.
