If I’m not as active on the blog later this week as you might expect, it’s because I’ll be attending the BlogHer 2011 conference in San Diego! BlogHer is a national annual conference for women who blog. It’s a place for bloggers to network with other bloggers from around the country, participate in instructional sessions that help us continue to create innovative, unique blogs, as well as build and strengthen relationships with manufacturers and brands of many of the products we blog about. As their own website states, BlogHer’s about “women who are changing the world, one blog post at a time.” (More info here)
This will be the first year I’m attending, and I’ll be blogging about my experiences at the event for you as well. (I hear it’s also quite a swag-fest, with lots of free products and samples being given to attendees… and I’m planning to bring bunches of things home to share with my readers via giveaways too.) CVS/Pharmacy has generously offered to sponsor most of the cost of my trip to BlogHer, which was an unexpected and appreciated gesture, so thank you to CVS.
Stay tuned for my reports from BlogHer ’11! I’ll be on the blog as often as possible while I’m traveling, but please bear with any delays in responding to posts or email. :)
CVS/pharmacy is partially sponsoring my trip to BlogHer 2011, though all opinions expressed on JillCataldo.com regarding the event, CVS/pharmacy and products sold in their stores are my own.

I live in the northern suburbs, am a relatively new couponer (January of this year!) and I’m the BlogHer.com Community Manager. I’m thrilled to hear you’ll be attending the conference this year and I hope I have the opportunity to meet you in person.

Can’t wait to read about it and that is very nice of CVS! Wish there was one in my Wauconda area or vicinity :-) Enjoy! Safe travels.
