We are getting some new linens and were looking at the Sferra line for the house over the week or so and it dawned on us that we still have a few christmas gift cards laying around the house that we haven't used yet. I thought I would send a quick reminder out to everyone. Use them up, remember we seen a few stores close their doors over the past few months and it would suck being stuck with a nice ... Read More

We are experiencing a pretty cold winter this year and my other half who is responsible for the hydro bill almost blew a gasket this month when she opened the bill. There are a couple of ther factors involved such as I have been working from home more often to save gas money but it has come at a price. I have had the heat on in the house when normally it is not on. I thought to myself ... Read More

Sitting at my feet right now is an old 4 litre water jug half filled with change. I am guessing there is about $50 in it. A pretty good part of a night out at the movies and dinner. I haven't been saving it for that long either. I have read that at any one time there is probably $100 of lose change sitting around a househould. That money can be used for lots of things like a night out, ... Read More

How much are you spending on your diet pills and vitamins or supplements that you are paying for each month? I was reading though a few Lipovox reviews the other day and thought there is a lot of information available and many differing prices on herbal and medicinal goods. I enjoy reading through the reviews and checking the different prices online. Search for the best deal you can if you are going to be buying these types of things online. It will ... Read More

Why do people keep sinking their money into things that just don’t work properly? I have a friend who is hooked on vitamins and keeps buying the same things over and over again but in the same hand complains about not feeling any better. Why do people throw bad money after worse? If you were spending a great deal of money on something like Leptorexin and it wasn’t working then maybe you would want to find another product that did ... Read More

I watch a lot of daytime television and see all sorts of commercials and info commercials. I can't help but feel for people on fixed income trying to make ends meet these days. There are spots for everything from shopping for insurance, scooters, easy to enter bathtubs and even adult diapers. Sometimes everyone has a hard time making ends meet let alone with the added costs of getting older. If you or your parents or even a good friend ... Read More

Over the winter time I have a bit of an addiction. That is wine. I love to have a glass or two with dinner. The benefits of drinking red wine everyday are a fact so I know in moderation it doesn't hurt. The problem is, I am an impulse buyer or a grocery store buyer. I know nothing of what I am buying or what I am paying for it. There are a couple of things you can do. ... Read More

I have been scouring around the internet since Christmas looking for wheels and deals on a few things I would like to replace around the house. Not that I am in a rush to get rid of my money but if I can find a few items for the right price it's a no brainer. I am amazed over the difference between shopping online last year and this year. It's all about the free shipping. You can pretty much get ... Read More

I am not sure if I blogged about it or not but I recently gutted all of the insulation and framing out of my unfinished basement. You see, I had found some mold. The result is one heck of a cold basement which lead me to do some reading on the subject. I have read that you can up to 20%-30% of you heating bill just by adding proper insulation. I am proof that since I took the insulation ... Read More

This week is still ripe for Boxing Day or Boxing Week sales. I can't believe what they are giving away this week. I have been looking at a couple of electronics sites for computers and gadgets and there are some big bargains to be had if you are still in the shopping mood. Everything from computers, laptops, video games and even POS systems. I put off buying a few things over Christmas mostly because they were for me and wanted ... Read More
