Trade Show Assistance Needed Next Week

Something that has become very popular these days are the trade show. I usually end up attending several of them through-out the year and for the most part enjoy the social aspect of it all, I have met many folks and have made contacts that have proven to be of value, business and personal wise.

One of the lady’s that I enjoy keeping company with has asked me to go with her one day next week to a trade show, over in the next county and help her with the setting up of her company’s booth and their newly purchased trade show carpet that is needed, as well as keeping her company during the day and assist with the breakdown at the end of the day and load up everything into her van. Sounds like it will be a long and busy day for the two of us, along with the booth and carpet she has new logo mats and a logo canopy that she needs help with too. And they have just recently also purchased a ton of new give-a-ways and promotional items  that she found online, I’m good at giving things away. I should be interesting.

Best Radar Detector For 2011

I live in a Communists state – good old Virginia has always made it illegal to own and operate a Radar Detector, truckers really hate driving through Virginia, rightfully so. It really sucks to get a speeding ticket, those suckers are expensive all the way around and can really sour your day.

Even though they are illegal here it doesn’t stop many of us from using them. My brother even had one on his Harley, LOL! That particular one died last year so for Christmas I found the Best Radar Detector for him online at bestradardetectors.net which had the Best Radar Detectors for 2011. Was he a happy camper on Christmas morning for once. He is always so hard to buy for so it was really cool to see how pleased he was with my gift this year. Not sure how I’m going to top it for next year though…

Being from the south

This guest post from Lenny Mcknight

Being from the south I was a little reluctant to pick up and move to Ohio. I got this amazing job offer at Ohio Statethough and I knew it was time for me to make a change so I took it and here I am! I actually love it here and I’ve made far more friends already than I thought I would have at this stage but you know, I do miss my family. I got Hughes Net Ohio for the house so I can email them when I get home from work but though I’m having fun it’s just not the same as being able to see them everyday. It kills me that my sister’s daughter is growing up with me so far away but it’s been good for me to finally stand on my own two feet and really do something without a lot of support. I don’t know that I’ll stay here forever but I can’t wait to find out – this is a better home than I thought it’d be!

Pink

I have found that you can get some good deals on eye wear by just going on the Internet and spending a few moments of your time, which is what I just spent the evening doing. I remembered seeing a segment on the Fox network about an on-line company that goes by zennioptical.com, they have done their best to keep the cost down by cutting out the middle man, and as we all know the middle man can be very greedy. I was pleased to see that they really do have a good selection of some pretty decent stylish glasses starting at only $6, as was mentioned on the TV.

I have an eye doctor’s appointment coming up next month and I am going get my new prescription and order my new cheap eyeglasses from Zenni Optical, check out the ones that I really have my eye on (please excuse that pun) and when you get a chance see if they have any that float your boat, you really can’t beat their prices any where.

 

 

Not a bad deal for $12.00 right? I love the color of pink and these will fit the bill perfectly with so many of my pink clothes and accessories. If you find a pair and want to share your pick with me I’d love to hear from you about it by leaving me a comment here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Medical Scrubs for Christmas

This year for Christmas I am thinking of purchasing a set of medical scrubs for my sister-in-law that I found online. I have found that these medical scrubs are so very comfortable and they keep you very cool during the hot summer months that have now come to an end for the year of 2011, but before we know it the summer of 2012 will be upon us and we all will be looking for nice looking clothes to wear while trying to keep cool.

My oldest sister suggested these scrubs for me to try out this summer, which I did and I couldn’t have been happier with the ones that I found and ordered online from Blue Sky Scrubs and I’d like to pass along the good things that I have found to others that I care about. So with Christmas looming ahead I am trying to pick up gift suggestions as well as the actually gifts along the way before the mad rush starts due to all of the holidays that are fast approaching us. Anything that I can find and buy online is the way to go for me, I hate going out to the malls and all the other retail stores scattered around town. It is kind of a Bah Humbug thing for me the older I get.

Getting better at bar trivia

Guest post written by Anna Bishop

When I first moved in with my roommates after college, we didn’t really have a whole lot in common. I guess maybe it was beacause we all only had mutual friends or mutual friends of mutual friends. But since then we’ve found something that unites us, bar trivia.

After a long day at work in the middle of the week, there’s nothing more that I love than totally beating a bunch of strangers with my knowledge of useless trivia. But I like to find different bar trivia places to go to each week. I was online looking up some of the better trivia places in Chicago when I ran across some info on Chicago wireless internet providers. After I looked through it some, I shwoed it to my roommates and we changed over our home internet service to it.

I think that our bar trivia skills are getting even better. It just so happens works that we all have a different area of expertise, so we know the answers to a whole bunch of the answers. If anything, it’s ecnomical because we win free drinks when we win!

It’s Always All About The Money

I’m glad that I was sent a link to a web site that explains the risks of day trading. I have been hearing a lot about online trading, but it has all been good and positive things about it and not one word of caution about it at all. Not that I have any money to do any investing with at this point and time. But one day I hope the economy will let up and we can start enjoying life the way we used to before our government screwed it all up for us.

If you want to read about the risks of day trading you can go to daytradingcenter.net and read about it there as I did.

Money Saving Tips On Prescription Eye Glasses

I just got back from getting my annual eye exam and now I armed with a prescription and searching for a cheap pair of prescription eyeglasses. My eye doctor told me that Ican get good quality prescription eyeglasses online at ZenniOptical.com so I’m going to take his advice and take a look and see if I can find a pair that I like there.

I’ve actually heard about Zenni Optical before. I saw a clip online not too long ago about a book that was recently written by the money expert Clark Howard, who spends his time finding ways to save money and passing those tips along to consumers. I remember that one of his hot picks on that clip was Zenni Optical and their massive selection of eye wear available for online shoppers. And since my eye doctor seems to think that Zenni Optical is OK, who am I to argue?

With money being so tight still for so many of us we can all use money saving tips. I think that I will take a look and see if I can find the book by Clark Howard that I saw on that clip. Maybe they have a copy of it at the library that I can check out for free for a couple of weeks.

Say Yes To The Dress

I’ve had the opportunity to watch TLC’s new hit TV show “Say Yes To The Dress”  What I can’t understand is in these horrible economic times with the economy totally in the toilet how these people are coming up with the thousands of dollars that they are spending on a dress that is only going to be used one time. Some of these dresses are well over ten thousand dollars, that is a lot of money that I think could be better spent in so m

Looking For Father’s Day Deals

I can’t help buy wonder what the Internet will be like in the next 5 or 10 years. I just can’t imagine it doing and offering any more than it all ready does, but I’m sure that there are many things in the works for us to see and use in the future. We have all ready become so dependent on our computers for just about everything we do these days, I can’t imagine life without it.

With Father’s Day coming up, we have all ready figured out what to get our Dad, but now we are working on finding something for our Grandfather, who is a recent widow and isn’t in the best of health these days. We have to find something for him that he will be able to use and to enjoy. Grandpa always enjoyed fishing, but hasn’t done much of it these past couple of years, so we are thinking about finding him a nice new fishing pole as a gift.

I found a great new site that can find deals at Savings.com. It’s a pretty cool site that you can ask, answer and save on. You submit your question, mine being “Where can I find good quality fishing poles at discount prices” then you provide them with your email address and then you sit back and wait for the answers to come straight to your email. Pretty easy right? I’ll let you know how it pans out over the next day or two.
