The weather man says that will should be getting 3 to 5 inches of snow by tomorrow. We still have several inches still on the ground from the last snow storm. I’m so done with winter and can’t wait for spring. They say that the groundhog saw his shadow and that means that we have 6 more weeks of winter, arg…….
The Comparing of Prices Online
I’ve been on the look out for a new bedroom vanity. I’ve been looking at yard sales and thrift stores for some time now and have given up on the hopes of finding a used one with a used price and have turned to the Internet to find one at a decent price. Become.com is a wonderful online shoppers comparison site that I’ve used to find good quality products at great prices for their online shoppers like myself.
I found Become.com when I was looking for hair blow dryers and was happy with them and bookmarked their site for future use. I believe that I also used them for the leather backpack purse that I purchased for myself for my birthday last year. I really don’t buy that much for myself these days, but when I do I want to and need to find the best deal possible in order to keep a couple of bucks in the bank.
Online shopping is the way to go if you can find free shipping along with other promotional or coupon codes that are designed to keep online shoppers ordering and coming back for more. I still like to go out and window shop on occasion but the online prices keep me from buying locally.
A New Challenge
I have been approached at work about taking over their email newsletter. It is something that I have dabbled in a bit here and there since I sit right next to the gal who currently taking on this task. It isn’t all that terribly difficult, I mean they have decent enough email newsletter software that is user friendly. But I’d like to think that if I do consent to taking this project on that I’d be allowed to check into some other newsletter software that might be better. I’ve seen some pretty nice newsletters and some pretty crappy ones and I’d like to have something that I put together look as good and professional as possible.
I am always looking for new and challenging things to take on at work, so I’m really quite tickled to be considered to do this important project. It is something that I think I can be creative with and make an impression with the “upper management” at some point. I’ve been there for almost 5 years now and I don’t for see me going anyway any time soon, at least I’m pretty secure in my position there. With today’s crazy economy one never really knows do they?
In The Land Of Credit
Since the economy has turned sour on us, there are a ton of people out there that have had their credit ruined. It is a shame that our lives revolve so highly around these credit issues. We work so hard to get credit, then we struggled to keep it good and we can have it destroyed in such a short amount of time. It just doesn’t seem right.
The good news is that you can now go online and have the opportunity to compare and shop around for credit cards for people with no credit history and bad credit credit cards to find the best fit for your specific financial needs. Credit-land.com is one such online credit card application site that I spent a bit of time at earlier this week. I’d like to find a credit card that gives me some cash back for a change and I don’t have the most perfect credit these days. So I’m glad that there are sites that make this task an easier one to tackle. I can take my time and browse at my convenience with no pressure or obligations. If I find one that sparks my interest I can apply for the card right there online. I like that.
Just What We Need, More Snow
As if we really needed any more snow. Today we got four more inches of this horrible white stuff that has made our lives such a mess these past few weeks and darned if they are calling for more later on this week as well. I’m so sick of this and I just can’t wait for spring so that we can finally be rid of it all.
I’m sure that there will be plenty of flooded basements and roads washed out when we finally get warm enough weather to start melting all that has accumulated. Not something to look forward to at all.
The Right Mailbox
It is important to have a good mail box. There has been a big push in having people place their house numbers on their mailboxes, so that our emergency personnel can find the the right location to which they have been called to. I know that it is hard trying to find house numbers especially at night and in bad weather. It must really be hard to be a delivery person that is constantly trying to find the house number in order to deliver items. I can imagine it would be a real challenge and very frustrating for them.
There are so many varieties of mail boxes on the market these days. I was surfing the Internet the other day and stumbled across a site that has some really nice residential and commercial mail boxes for sale. My poor mailbox has seen better days and I’ve been meaning to purchase a new one. It is just something that hasn’t been high on my list of priorities lately, what with the holidays and now the extreme weather that we have been experiencing. But I’m thinking that when I get my tax refund check in the mail in the next couple of months that I will go back to this site that I have book marked and order a new one once and for all.
Deals To Be Found Online
I am one of many people that can not sleep at night without my Ceiling Fan on. If there isn’t any circulation going on in the room that I’m sleeping in then I can’t breathe and I’ll be miserable for the entire time. I grew up in a house that had Ceiling Fans in just about every room, my parents utilized them all year round and I’ve just become accustomed to them my whole life.
The Ceiling Fan that I have right now in my room has seen better days. I’m actually surprised that it has lasted this long since it is basically on 24/7 and has been doing so for the last 10 years. It has been making a slight noise these past few months, just enough to get on my nerves when I’m having a rough night of trying to get some sleep. So I’m thinking that now would be a good time to start looking into purchasing a new one. My sleep is important and my tax refund check should be able to cover the costs of a few things that I’ve been wanting and needing around the place.
I’ve been told and found that there is a website that offers Hansen Wholesale Ceiling Fans, so I took a gander last night and found some nice Ceiling Fans that I’d love to order. I was amazed at all of the different styles, sizes, colors of their ceiling fans. I’m leaning towards their Energy Star Ceiling Fans. I’m all about saving our precious energy and anything that I can do to help cut my energy expenses is a good thing. I like that they offer free shipping, and right now they are giving us a chance to enter a promotional code: N397926406 for their online shoppers to utilize for additional savings. There are deals out there for online shoppers and I’m all about taking advantage of all that I can find.
Super Bowl
The weather has put a damper on my Super Bowl party plans. With the 2 and 3 feet of snow that we received yesterday, most of us are snowed in big time. We lost power for over 11 hours yesterday and just now got our cable and Internet connection up and going an hour ago. This blizzard has made a mess out of everything and we are expecting more snow on Wednesday, arg………..
