Affiliate Links

Most of the links on www.kendrafoundit.com are affiliate links.  This means that if you purchase an item that I link to, I will receive a small commission. Why do I do this? Because a girl’s gotta eat.  Finding deals, monitoring sales, researching product, planning features, and writing takes a lot of time – especially if you’re a perfectionist like me (type-A personalities, represent!). On each and every post, I will also remind you of this with a disclosure at the bottom of the page.

If you would like to avoid the affiliate links (there is no pressure to use them), simply type in the website manually or search for the product using any internet search engine.
