Blogging involves a lot of time, love, and effort and somebody has to pay for hosting and other expenses. So, until we win the Mega Millions jackpot, Mama Latina Tips will continue to accept forms of cash advertising, sponsorships, paid insertions and other forms of compensation that help pay our bills. You will always know when we’ve been paid to feature a post or product because we will let you know in the disclosure statement added to such posts.
