Shopping Early For the Holidays

I am always looking for the best buy possible when it comes to online shopping. Whether it is free shipping or a product that is on clearance, finding a good bargain is almost always a great deal. Notice I said almost always. That's because at the moment I am on a very tight budget and online shopping is the furthest thing from my mind. However, for my readers who are able to buy online at the moment, Buy.com is a neat site to check out for some pretty good deals. Currently they are offering weekly deals, so if you don't find something you like this week, you can always check back with them in the near future.

I just found out that they are having a summer deal for over 800 items that are up to 50% off. Toys included! It's not a bad idea to start shopping early for Christmas!

Happy Holidays

To everyone who celebrates, I hope you have a wonder Christmas and Happy New Years.

Holidays and Work

Just found out yesterday that we may very well have to work Thanksgiving Day. Was looking forward to going out of town Thanksgiving, but either way I go, we're not going out of town. So it doesn't really matter if I work or not now.

The only other problem is there is a rumor that we won't get paid overtime for working Thanksgiving Day. I don't see that one happening since it happens to be a law.

The only thing I am worried about is whether or not we'll be working Christmas Day or not. I do want that day off. I won't know anything until the very last moment.

The good news is I am getting my car this Monday. I'll be paying it in full. My husband tried to argue that I wasn't getting my car Monday, so I laughed.

I am very excited about getting the car since it will mean I won't have to worry about a ride to and from work and I won't have to wait on my ride who gets off 30 minutes later than I do, going home.

I will still need to get tags, taxes and insurance on the car, but I plan on doing that with my next check. My husband is thinking it will taking me a while before I can drive the car, but fat chance of that! lol

Time to finish cooking dinner.I'm making ham and beans for dinner w/ sweet cornbread.

Chillin'

I have a friend at work who loves wine. I am wondering if she would also love P.C. Richard and Son's wine coolers. Their coolers would be great for the holidays since family get togethers can me limited room in the refrigerator. I am not a really big wine drinker, but I do love the look of their Avanti Wine Cooler. Hmm. I wondering if the coolers could be used to hold other products? Bottles of water or juice maybe? What do you think? Any other ideas?
