technology How many times do you visit several online shops and compare the price whenever you want to buy something from the Internet? I have this fear of passing off a great deal so I always make sure that I’ve visited every site or shops that I know before I settle. This is a tasking process and can be infuriating especially if you have a slow Internet connection. But thanks to the Every Price website, this won’t be a problem anymore.
Let’s say you want to check the pricing for a Nikon D90 DSLR. All you need to do is browse through the camera category (they have loads of categories by the way) and check if they have a listing for Nikon D90. Once you find it, click on the item and have instant access to a comparison page displaying prices, ratings, availability from various online stores like Amazon, 5th Avenue Digital, Camera Addict, JR.com and many other more. The comparison page have a featured seller as well just in case you don’t have time to go through all the listings.

me, myself and i,
money matters,
shopping My mother-in-law frowns upon the purchase of luxury bags. I always hold my tongue and try not to tell her that she has about 8-10 of them in her closet. She must have probably forgotten or she’s gotten wiser now so she stopped buying them. Whatever’s the case, I hope she will consider me a good enough daughter-in-law to give them to me in the future.
Speaking of extravagances, she once told me that I if I really want to invest on accessories, I should invest on jewelry. I used to have a few pieces of gold chain when I was young but I don’t remember what happened to me. I asked my husband before if he will wear those famous 5mm chain bracelets but he said I would just be wasting money if I buy him one. Now that we have a daughter, I have a reason to splurge on jewelry. Ever since she was born, I’ve wanted to buy her a pair of diamond studs and a nice gold necklace that she can wear on special occasions.

me, myself and i My 12-year-old godson from UK sent me an email last week. He wanted to show me a video of himself skating at the park. His friends took the video and he looked so grown up and handsome that I can’t imagine him being a little boy anymore. He’s sharing the video with me because he knows how I loved skateboarding when I was his age. He even teased me that I couldn’t probably handle a skateboard anymore. To prove how cool and hip I am, I’ve decided to give him a new board instead of skate clothing for his 13th birthday. I’m sure he would be thrilled and change his opinion of me. However, her mom which has been my friend since we were 10 might not be as happy. Well, at least he’s not into motorbikes. Yet.

travel,
web sites A few hours after I made the post about Jamaica vacations, another friend of mine came across the Breezes.com web site and immediately sent me the link. She knows how I dream of visiting all the best beaches in the world and thought of sharing how cheap the packages are. The best accommodation, location-wise so far are the Ocho Rios hotels. Ocho Rios is the main cruise port to the Island and has everything for everyone. You can go into shopping (which we all love to do), stay close-to-paradise beaches or climb the world-famous Dunn’s River falls.
Breezes also offers Super inclusive Jamaica packages which basically means the best vacation value in the world. Well, that’s according to their website, of course. But if you ask me, it’s really one heck of a travel package because it really has everything that you need. From variety of dining options to unlimited premium drinks and cocktails, water activities and sports to day / night entertainment and most important of all, top quality and elegant rooms to ensure that you have the vacation of a lifetime.
If you’re planning for a vacation, you might want to consider checking out what Breezes.com has to offer. You’d be surprised that your dream vacation might just be within reach after all.

travel My co-worker from the US just arrived last week to have her honeymoon here. I’ve spent hours researching local resorts for her so she will never regret her visit. However, she missed my email so they went ahead and booked on the first agency that they saw near their hotel. On our last correspondence, she and her husband were having the most amazing time. It’s really the company you keep that matters, you know. And speaking of honeymoon, if ever my husband and I can save enough cash for an out of the country trip, we’d love to have one of those caribbean resorts from Breezes.com. We are avid fans of the sun and based on the all inclusive vacation package that they offer, we are in for the travel of our dreams.
Of course, the budget-conscious side of me was curious to know if it’s possible for us to go there in the next few years. I was surprised to see that they offer affordable all inclusive caribbean vacations for their spring and summer specials. Some of them will even save you up to $600! The rooms, if booked separately aren’t that expensive at all. If we save up enough money, we can afford to spend at least six to seven days basking in the sun, staring at the blue Caribbean waters doing nothing else but living the dream.

money matters 6. Really want to save money? Don’t shop at all if you think you can do without the item that you want to purchase.
7. Read ebooks instead of buying paperbacks.
8. Shop once a month for dry goods, twice a month for meat and fish, once a week for veggies
9. If it gets too hot during the day and you don’t want to spend dollars on electricity bill by turning on the aircon, adjust your schedule and work early mornings or late at night.
10. Finish your tasks as soon as you can so you don’t have to turn on your laptop the whole day. When you work from home, you tend to put off other tasks until you find time to do it.

travel Ever since my friend told me how he spent the night in the mountains on his own, with his body tied to a tree so he will not fall, I’ve promised myself that I will try something as adventurous as that someday. That day has not come yet but I’m not discouraged. I’ve been visiting this mountain forum to check out photos of other travelers and learn some tricks too. It’s from that forum where I read read about trekking in Nepal and how it is a never-ending outdoor adventure experience.
However, it was the mention of Himalayas that really inspired me.
from destination360.com
Their stories on the struggle of man versus nature are just amazing and I wish that I can visit the place before I die. I also hope that by then, I’d be experienced enough in climbing mountains so I can afford to trek at least the smaller peaks.
