Beer Pong Tables
2008-01-28 22:05:00
Have you ever heard of a beer pong table ? I hadn't until I saw this website called bingbongtables.com.  Apparently you can play beer pong with a 6.5 ft table or have a tournament with an 8 footer!  With collaspible legs so you can easily store the table with, this looks like a great gift for the partier friend that you know.  Or a great addition to your entertainment gear for having guests over.  No sitting around sipping wine, of course!  Get up and play!

Valentines Gift Ideas
2008-01-23 22:26:00
Years ago, the pocket watch was a symbol of status and taste.  I think the tradition is coming back in style.  What a great gift for those men that are hard to buy for.  I don't mean the teen boys, they are all into cars, games, and girls.  But the sophisticated man, or more mature one, I think would love this kind of gift.  And not just for Valentines .  How about that boss or coworker that is so hard to buy for.  I will be putting this idea into the hat for our next gift giving  celebration.  Do not read this, Danny!Everyone else check out JewelElegance.com.  They have some super specials and free shipping on everything over $75!

Cruises to Bahamas for $649
2008-01-23 22:17:00
Yes, this site has the greatest "hot deals".  They have a category just for these awesome deals and that's what we are looking for, hot deals.  The site is Cruisecheap.com and they mean it.  They really offer cruises at these low prices.  What a Valentines Day gift, huh?  With all this cold weather, doesn't the Bahamas sound just delicious?This particular deal leaves out of New York, but there are so many other destinations and leaving ports that you have to check it out.  If a cruise was not in your budget, maybe you could rethink it.  They are not as expensive as you think or I thought.  Have a great weekend!  I know it is only Wednesday, but a girl can dream that the weekend is closer, right?

Who has the Pinecone Research banner inviting  18 - 24  olds?  Debs Lounge does!  Just look to banner to the right, click and sign up.   They are looking for male and females, age 18 -24 that are primary grocery shoppers in the home.  I don't know how long they will let me run the invite so click the banner to the right or the one at the bottom of this article and sign up TODAY! As you may or may not know, Pinecone Research is one of the hottest, most sought after paying survey companies on the net.  This is because they pay faster than some, have more interesting surveys and products, and are consistent and extremely reputable.  And free to join.  There are never any fees to be a member.  The only bad thing was that you had to be invited by them (not by a referrer, as far as I know they do not have a referral program) or find one of their recruitment banners and they would only run ads at different times and when the quota fil...

Opinion Square Great Paying Survey Site
2008-01-21 19:09:00
Don't pay a company for a list of sites that pay you to take surveys. I'll be writing about several that I know of that are free to join and are quality companies. I always appreciate the feedback of these companies as I try to research and even join them myself in order to give you real information on the ones that work and the ones that don't. Something to remember about any survey company is that you have to qualify for each survey in order to receive your reward. Opinion Square is a great survey company. Here are the highlights of Opinion Square. Join OpinionSquare for Free! 1. It's FREE to join. 2. On average you get about 3-4 surveys a month. 3.

Protect Your Car's Paint and Interior
2008-01-19 20:40:00
I should have found this great site before I got the cat fixed and got a car cover.   When I took her the vet, I wasn't worried about it because the vet is like a half mile down the road.  Do you know what happens when you put a cat in your car and even start the engine?  Do you know what happens when the car starts to move?  They first pee in fear apparently and then go berserk bouncing and scratching through your car like one of those little uncontrollable bouncing balls that someone shot off like a freaking rocket!  I think I needed the pet cover for the seats and maybe a cover for me.

Working With Assisted Living

If you are in the market to work with senior citizens and assisted living, then you know how tough all the financial aspects can be when piled on with the responsibility of caring for seniors on a 24 hour basis.  I am talking about the business end of this.  I know a couple of people who run assisted living facilities and the just keeping up with the financial end of things is apparently very hard.  If you are a person interested in going into this kind of business then you should check on assisted living software.  This is software that is designed specifically for assisted living facilities by walking you through from assessments to service.

NIMH Batteries
2008-01-14 22:06:00
I am always out of batteries.  I usually think about them when I need them or when I am at home and either the stores are all closed or I just don't want to go back out into town.  Not that we live that far from the stores, but you know how it is once you get in and get settled, suppers on the stove, and you've taken off your shoes and bra!  At least the women know how I feel.  A good place to get nimh batteries is East Coast Photo where you can get your batteries online, when you think about them.  And they always have a category of specials (clearance) whatever, that I love to save money on.

What Is A Payday Loan?
2008-01-10 19:56:00
A payday loan is a quick loan that you can get based on how much you make and your average balance in your checking account.  There is no credit check, they use the average balance on your checking account to prove you can pay the money back out of your next paycheck.  When should you get a payday loan?  They are really for true emergencies like car repairs, unexpected bills, etc or when sometimes the month runs short.   Just make sure that you consider the interest you will be paying to pay the loan back and be sure you can pay it.  You don't want to overload and not be able to have enough money in the bank for them to get paid.  That can cause a multitude of problems more over than you started out with.  Payday loans are great, just use them wisely.

If you are looking for a place to advertise your commercial real estate or looking to buy commercial real estate, I found a fantastic website that boasts over 250,000 searches a month with over 100 partner sites.  Citifeet has it all and you can search by state and market or even outside the United States.  They have so many categories from office suites to sublets and even offer information on businesses for sale.  Check them out.  It's a very well organized, professional site.

Gifts for Teen Drivers
2008-01-02 23:28:00
Now that the holidays are over I find more and more gift ideas for my teen son.  At this time car spoilers would not work for his truck, but this is an idea for the future and his future vehicles.  Kids love this kind of thing on their cars  because they think it looks so cool.  And some parents who haven't quite grown up yet would appreciate them too.  We all know a few of those.  Ha Ha. Even I was one until I caved and got the SUV.  I never thought I would result to that but the kids got so big they were starting to hang their arms and legs out the windows of my little sports cars!

Tax Time Gifts for Yourself
2008-01-02 23:22:00
It's time to think about getting something for yourself.  The holidays are over now and it's time to get back to work.  That's a little hard for me as I got kinda spoiled being off for so many days and people in the house nearly every minute for the last 2 or 3 weeks.  Now, my son went to the mountains with his dad and all the relatives are gone home.  Time to think about tax time and that means for some refund time.Import Advantage has these cool tv lifts that can give a beautiful accessory for your home while sliding your tv down and out of site when not in use.  They call them a plasma tv liftIt looks so elegant to see your tv go from closed to open doors at the touch of a button.  Great gift for self this time of year.

Good Time for Vacations

When is a good time for a vacation?  Anytime you can!  Please check out Outer Banks for traveling and for buying in North Carolina.  They have a way for you to search by your arrival date, number of bedrooms, and price range.  Now that is cool.  Tell me what I can get with what I have without me having to search and search for what I can afford only to find that the good deals are so hidden that I move on to something maybe not so nice at a different site.  They have some really beautiful oceanside property and you can also request that a brochure be sent to you.

Beautiful Plus Size Lingerie
2007-12-26 19:41:00
No matter what size we are, we want to look and feel sexy.  I am so glad to see that retailers are starting to get that and not just offer beautiful things to the size 7 folks.  Although I have lost 23 pounds and feel so great, I am still not a size 7 and will probably never see that size again.  Nor do I want to.  I happen to love my curves and plus size lingerie is no longer so hard to find.  Check out Lingerie Diva for some gorgeous nighties.  They also have a clearance section.  As always, my favorite.

A Bed For Your Cat
2007-12-26 19:25:00
I recently redid my son's room for Christmas and it looks great!  But I found a site that would have added the final touch to it for our cat.  She loves to hang out in my son's room where she can smell him, but I don't want her on the new comforter and blankets.  A cat bed would be ideal and at Catsheaven.com there are all kinds of cat beds and accessories that she would love to lay on and still be close to the one she adores.  And I don't know why.  I'm the one that feeds her.

You know my son got a new truck for his birthday in June and now it is already Christmas!  So here we go looking for that perfect gift again.  He already is getting a new bedroom (I hope to have up before and after pictures after Christmas)  Like what else does the kid need?  He is always wanting something new for his baby.  He loves truck accessories and has hinted or I don't even know if you can call it hinting when he keeps taking you to the back of the truck and telling you how the bed needs to be protected and how a bedliner would make his truck just awesome or pointing out that he needs a place for his skateboards and that a toolbox would be perfect.I'm left scratching my head at that.  I thought a toolbox was for tools?Anyway, I am checking out BuyAutoTruck Accessories .com because they have this fabulous selection of what the kid wants and more.Have you noticed that the older they get the more expensive the things they want?  Or is it just me!

Losing Weight
2007-11-30 23:01:00
I've lost a total of 24 pounds in the last year.  That has made the biggest difference in how I look and feel.  If you could pics of me from New Year's two years ago... Never mind, I think I'll rip those up.  I don't always recommend diet pills, especially ones with ephedra.  There are other solutions, though, like hoodia and slim quick that can be a great starter that gives you some encouragement.  As always, don't be discouraged by slow weight loss.  It is not only better for your health, but gravity won't kick in so hard, either.

How Bout A Cruise For a Gift?
2007-11-30 22:50:00
If you gave someone a cruise for a gift, who could top it?  Or, is there a better way to get rid of your mother in law for a while and at the same time be her favorite son in law? (or daughter in law, which ever the case may be)  Why not look at caribbean cruises for her or (and here's a nifty idea) for yourself and your family.  You get the good stuff, too.  Hey, I am always about the deal, right?  Actually, my ex had this idea.  He takes his family, including our son, on a vacation every year for Christmas with the idea that it would be more memorable than a bunch of "stuff" that they would outgrow or not even remember.  He gives memories for Christmas, which I think is pretty cool.

Tis the season for spending money!  Maybe better for budgeting and planning.  I love to save money and make money and try to share that with everyone when I find a deal or a freebie, but that's not a lot of good if you can't budget and sometimes we all need help with that.  Prophix is a great site that offers these solutions for not only business and corporations, but for personal budgets, too.

Another Place for Help With Addition

I mentioned before about the holidays and how you notice more in yourself and others in the way they may need help.  Besides alcohol help, some need help with drugs.  Prescription drugs are no exception in now what is called "Generation RX".  Maybe you or someone you love needs help and you need to know that there are drug treatment centers out there with a trained staff that can help or point you in the right direction, even if you don't live in the exact area of the treatment center.  Call a place like Sunset Malibu.  You may be surprised at what your insurance covers when sending you somewhere, too.
