This weekend is a great time to buy some video games for the gamer in your life. There are special deals going on that will only be around for a couple of days. I doubt it is a mere coincidence that this weekend also happens to be the one that Father’s Day falls on. Video games seem to be something that you either love to play, or that you just don’t understand the appeal of. Historically, men tend to spend more time playing video games than women do, and they also tend to play a wider variety of games. This … Continue reading →

Have you gotten one of those “invitations” from Starbucks? I got one when I was at my local Starbucks earlier this week. It prints out with your receipt, and gives clear, simple directions on how to take a quick survey. Completing the survey gives you a free tall beverage from Starbucks. No matter what your favorite drink from Starbucks happens to be, it always tastes a little bit better when it is free. My current favorite happens to be the iced chai tea, with soy, and I tend to switch of between getting the tall size, or getting the grande … Continue reading →

The bigger your family, the more Christmas cards you are going to need. My family is huge, and I have learned that the best way to be able to afford to buy all the Christmas cards I need is to plan ahead, and to buy a few boxes of Christmas cards, rather than to buy each family member an individual Christmas card. I find this is the best way to save money on Christmas cards. I have become something of an expert when it comes to finding sales on Christmas cards. Most of these sales will begin the week before … Continue reading →

My favorite places to shop are thrift stores. I am fortunate enough to have several different ones in my hometown to choose from. Everything is sold for a very inexpensive price. I almost always find something wonderful when I shop at the thrift stores. Some of the most unique clothing I wear comes from thrift stores. I’ve found a beautiful white sweater with lacy crocheted edges, a long, black, velvet coat with lots of little buttons, and a denim skirt with ruffles on the back. I constantly get complements about how cute my capri jeans are. They have a delicately … Continue reading →

The thing I have always liked best about Kohl’s is their amazing clearance sales! Most of the time, if I find clothing that I really want to buy, I make myself wait. I usually can find the same item in the clearance sales a short time later, for a much lower price! For those of you who have never shopped there, Kohl’s is a department store. A large portion of the store is dedicated to clothing for men, women, and children. The children’s section includes juniors (for teenage girls), girls, boys, and infants. You can also purchase shoes for the … Continue reading →
