Coupon Queen Strikes Again!
By allkinds on Jul 30, 2009 | In Cooking, Food and Drink
My kids call me the coupon queen because I am always searching for coupons and printing them out. This past month when I went grocery shopping I saved almost $30 off of my bill. Everyone who knows me, know I am always looking for a good deal on everything and I can use a coupon I will. There is no shame in my game focus. And you shouldn’t be a shamed also; hey if you can put some money back in your pocket you should be shouting out for joy. I have a few places online that I like to look and see if they are any good deals happening one place is Amazon.com it great to compare prices and see what seller has the best price for what I am looking for. I love it when I can find an Amazon.com coupon sometimes they can be hard to find though, so you really have to search.
But they are out there so don’t give up, one way to make sure you receive coupons from your favorite stores is to sign up for their newsletters to receive their specials. Also there are a lot of coupon sites out there and they also can send you specials via email, or you can print coupon right from their website. Stayed tuned for more information on how you can save with coupons.
Custom Wood Doors

I have always wanted to change my front door ever since my house was built, but have never gotten around to it. So anyway I was looking for ideas and while I was searching I came across the words Naples Fl custom doors while I was searching. I clicked on the link and came across a website that had some beautiful wooden doors. The one I have pictured is my favorite and its called the howard. I just really liked the look although I don't think that exact one would fit my entrance since its not that big. But one can dream right? Although they are from florida I think I read they are all over the U.S if so I may have to see if they have a showroom near me.
Bed Bug Encasement

Do you know anyone who has had an experience with bed bugs? Have you had an experience with bed bugs? For those of you have had and experience with bed bugs or know someone who has, you know it can change your life forever and it can be really hard to get rid of.
Well I have never had that experience and really hope I don’t, but to make sure I agreed to a review a product from BugZip. They sent me a bed bug encasement in various sizes and it can be used when you travel or even in your home if you have a problem with bed bugs. I have to say I was very impressed with the quality of the products and will use it when I go on vacation. The one thing about this product is that if you use it on vacation it is recommended that you not use it again and leave the encasement in the hotel when you are about to check out. Failure to do so can cause you to bring these bugs home if they are present in the hotel room.
Facts about bed bugs- Bed bugs are nocturnal; they sleep all day and only come out after everyone is asleep. As such, they are extremely difficult to see and catch. They generally stay very close to a bedroom unless they accidentally hitch a ride on someone’s clothes, luggage, bag or purse, which they are known to do frequently.
At the moment there are no pesticides making any headway at preventing the rapid spread of bed bugs between hotels, homes, college dorms, hospitals, military barracks, or low-income housing. Anywhere that people sleep is very susceptible to a bed bug infestation especially places with a high turnover of people moving in and out.
There is a common misconception that bed bugs are only found at “dirty” or low-budget hotels. This is not true. Bed bugs don’t like dirt; they like warm bodies, so they hitch a ride on someone’s bag and migrate to the bedroom. Hotels are well aware that no one wants to stay at a hotel with bed bugs.
Most hotels are actively looking for signs of bed bugs and regularly treating suspect rooms. The problem is that as soon as one room has been cleaned, someone brings bed bugs back into it. It’s a perpetual cycle of bed bugs traveling to and from bedroom to bedroom. Every time a bedroom is cleaned, there are still a few that have escaped in someone’s bags or were hiding inside the wall. A few bed bugs leftover will turn into a few thousand again in about three months.
I read this on the BugZip website and this is a very scary thing. It makes you think twice about staying in a hotel. Who wants to be bitten all night while you sleep? I know I don’t and I don’t especially want to bring that home with my 4 kids at home. Make sure before you go on vacation that you check out these products and buy some.

By allkinds on Jul 18, 2009 | In Business
If you ever wanted to work from home or if you are out of job, one job you might want to look in to is a customer service rep for the many call centers out there. What you would be doing is taking orders or making phone calls for various companies. Most companies require you to have a computer, Internet access, landline phone, headset and a very quit place to work. Some companies also require you to take a test before they hire you. Pay varies from company to company so it’s a good idea to some research and ask questions before you apply. Be sure to also check out the BBB website to make sure the company has a good reputation. Don’t want to start working for a company only to find out they have complaints against them for not paying their employees or contractors.
Breeches

Have you ever heard of breeches? I had no idea what they were until I saw a lady wearing them while she was riding her horse in my neighborhood. Yes people do ride their horses up and down my street. I live out in the country where many people own farms, horses, goats etc. I don’t own a farm nor do I have any farm animals, but a lot of people around me do. Anyway breeches are a type of pants that people wear when they show their horses. I though they were very interesting and asked her if they made a difference when she rode her horse. She said she wears them when she rides her horses, because they are more comfortable then jeans. I had to ask her what she was wearing because I have seen a few people wearing them and they don’t look like the type of pants that you buy at your local Wal-Mart.
