Free Shipping, Free Sizing and Takes PayPal

With Mother’s Day coming up in another month, I have been looking around online in order to find a nice watch to purchase for my mother. Bluedial.com has a wonderful selection of Brand name watches like Seiko, Citizen, Bulova Casio at some pretty decent prices. They offer free 2nd day shipping and free sizing. I also like that they accept PayPal, that is something that more companies need to start offering.

I found this sweet looking ladies watch by Bulova. It is reduced from $250 down to $133, which is a great deal. I think that she will love it and I think that it would look real nice on my mother’s wrist.

Unique

The other day I was rummaging around the basement and found an old jewelry box of my wife’s that had yet to be brought up to our room. When I brought it upstairs and gave it to her, she gave out a joyful shriek. “You found my copper bracelets!” She said that she had wondered where that box had gone to!

She was thrilled because she had just been looking at a jewelry website that has a large selection of copper bracelets, and was thinking about buying one from them. Now she can refresh her memory of the ones that she has so she can be sure to not order a duplicate. I noticed that while she was on their website she was also looking at their selection of earrings. She sure does love earrings, and the site had a ton of them! I’m always nervous about buying jewelry online, but they have a satisfaction guarantee and free shipping, so I guess it won’t hurt to try them out!

I have always loved Frankie Valle and the Four Seasons. I was really happy to see that there is a Broadway Musical out about their story! I found this clip on YouTube about the Musical – featured on the David Letterman Show. I didn’t know that these guys were associated with mobsters! I hope you enjoy it!

Looking for bargains

In this troubled economy, my wife and I spend quite a bit of time looking for bargains that will help us to stretch our budget dollars.  Especially since I’ve been on the “injured list.”  So I was really excited to find the Offers.com website.  The website is chock full of freebies and discounts on a wide variety of items.  There are several different categories set up to help you find the best deal on credit cards, software, travel, clothing, and much more.

Many of the links lead to a section full of links to click to get coupon codes, but there is also a category that I’m really enjoying that is full of free things.  Like a free towel, free dog food, free fabric softener, free engine belt wear gauge, free ruler, free ice cream, free paint sample, free polishing cloths – the list goes on and on!  I think I could easily spend over an hour checking out all of the free stuff!  And this free stuff doesn’t appear to be “free trial” where you end up having to pay for something if you keep it; this is really free stuff!

I’m going to have to let my wife take a turn at looking at this site!  I’ve bookmarked it to come back to in the future.  This one is a keeper!  I’m definitely going to order the free sample of Dunkin’ Donuts coffee!  And I see a couple of free cookbooks for my wife!  I’d claim this bargain hunt time today a glorious success!

Insurance is really important

One thing I’ve always been adamant about throughout my adult life is making sure that we have insurance.  Whether it is life insurance, auto insurance, or health insurance, one thing is for sure.  If you don’t have it, you WILL be sorry!  So when my nephew decided to move to Providence, I told him that I’d help him by trying to find some competitive rates for insurance for him.

With the assistance of some great search engines, (and the expertise of my wife!) I’ve been searching the keywords of Insurance Providence, RI, Business Liability Providence, RI, and Renters Insurance Providence, RI.  I think my nephew will be pleased with the results that I have to give him.  I hope he listens to my advice and gets as much insurance as he can afford to get!  I wouldn’t be in the mess I’m in now myself if the lady who caused the car accident I was in had the right insurance!
