The things in my head go 'round and 'round

This is my life. You can't have it.

Reconnecting with old friends

How do you reconnect with old friends?  I set up a MySpace account and quickly got tired of it.  All the tweaking, and messing around with it drove me nuts.  So then I went to FaceBook and discovered the crack that it is.  I have had decent success with facebook, but that isn’t the real reason for my writing here, right now.

 

What do you say to the people that you are looking for when you do find them?  That is the question.  Because not everyone has had the cake walk of life.  Some of us have struggled more than others.   So…….how much do you unload on people when you do find them? 

 

Me, I have gotten my bio down to a few words.  Just a little bigger than a tweet.  Not enough info to freak them out and make them disappear, but just enough to make them know what has been going on.  That I have been living life, not wallowing in it.  How do you do it?

 

I really want to know.

CouponChief will save you money

With the economic times being what they are, everyone needs to hold on to as much of their disposable cash as possible.  There are many ways you can save money, and using coupons is one of them.  When you talk to people about coupons one of the first things that comes to mind is the coupons that come in the Sunday newspaper.  In my business, retail grocery, I have seen customers save incredible amounts of money.  I have seen a $250 grocery order reduced to $175 with coupons.  That is a significant amount of money.  Not everyone, though, wants to cut coupons out of the paper.  That is where CouponChief.com comes in.

 

CouponChief is a website where you can find thousands of deals, and discounts.  Shoes, clothing, electronics, skin care.  You can spend hours going through the site finding the items that you and your family use on a daily basis.  And you can see the amount of money that you could save if you took advantage of the discounts that are being offered.  I just bought a new laptop.  Had to, the old one died.  I spent a good couple of weeks going from store to store figuring out what was going to be the best deal for me.  I could have just clicked on CouponChief and looked at Dell and the % off deals that they offer.  If you aren’t a Dell fan, then you can check out HP and their offerings.  I could have saved myself a lot of time doing my shopping this way instead of the way I did it.

 

MLW has been looking for shoes lately.  Ok, truth be told she is looking for shoes all the time.  What it is with her and shoes I will never understand, but if it makes her happy I am happy.  The point being that I turned her on to CouponChief and she has spent the past few days checking out what there is offered.  She hasn’t made her purchase yet, but from the look on her face, I know she is in online shopping heaven.

 

CouponChief, you have got to check them out.  Using this site will save you money.
