My fiance and I moved out of her parents house into an apartment. This was the first time we were going to be on our own. Neither one of us owned much stuff and her parents wouldn’t let us take the mattress we were using in their cellar with us (bitches). My fiance was...
My sister was on Restraunt.com looking around for local restaurants here in Charlotte, NC. As she was looking she found a café called Pippa’s Café. We had never heard of it nor seen it before but thought we would give it a try. But before we decided to go ahead with purchasing the gift...
I like to download movies, music and software for free. Nowadays with all the scumbag attorneys out there threatening lawsuits and extorting people for thousands of dollars for downloading stuff over the internet it is very, very important to remain anonymous and not get caught. So how does one download software, movies and more...
I received some coupons in the mail the other day from Dunkin’ Donuts which had a big cup of iced coffee and a chicken croissant sandwich below it. They looked really tasty and I hadn’t eaten at a Dunkin’ Donuts since I was a kid growing up in New York. Just the idea of...
It was May of last year and it was getting hot – we had a heat spell that was just crazy and my GMC Envoys air conditioning stopped blowing cold air. Just two years prior I had a new air compressor installed in my truck. Now, it wasn’t blowing any cold air at all....
The other day I and the family went to CiCi’s pizza in Charlotte NC (the restaurant by I-485 and UNCC). The kids love pizza and this sounded like a really good deal – we had two free kids buffet coupons that I printed out off the internet. So the total was about $16 for...
Every spring I and my sons plant seeds for various vegetables that we want to grow in our garden. For years we had used the Jiffy brand peat pellets at Home Depot and Lowes. What I didn’t like was the fact that these pellets were hard to keep from getting too wet. They were...
I recently bought the 3M brand headlight lens restoration kit off Amazon.com for about $16 including shipping and handling. The first thing that should have tipped me off that this might be a sketchy product or even a scam was the fact that it took over 3 weeks to get my order. I have...
I saw an advertisement in a computer magazine that I read (PCWorld) about internet TV. I have heard a lot about the possibilities of internet TV and that in a few years cable will be outdated and replaced by internet TV. So I decided to jump on the bandwagon and get the latest...
I travel a lot with my job and so I spend weeks away and I do not want people, especially burglars, to know I am away. I used to use a manual timer for my front hall and living room lights, but I found that the manual dial timers are not very accurate and...
I love good Mexican food and especially good chimichangas and steak burritos. I love good tacos, but I prefer the chimichangas and steak entrées. Well, I had never been to the Ole Mexican grill here in Cambridge Massachusetts so I decided to give it a try (besides I had heard great things about it on...
Corner Tavern 101 West Union Street Newark, NY 14513-1426 For the past couple months I have been going to a local tavern here in Newark, NY called The Corner Tavern. I was looking for a place that has great food and friendly service and I think I have found that place. A couple of...
Yesterday my family and I went to the NASCAR Hall of Fame in uptown Charlotte, NC. This weekend was an event called Speed Street uptown featuring all sponsor companies of the Coca Cola 600. We decided to head downtown and experience the NASCAR events including the Hall of Fame. It was a beautiful day...
I had been looking for quite some time for an ideal radio station or two. I just purchased a Muzee usb internet radio dongle and it has made it so that I know have over 20,000 radio stations worldwide to listen to. So it took me a long while of trying different stations and...
For years I had used different fertilizers and chemicals for my plants and lawn. I hated the fact that most of these items were non-reusable. This causes too much waste and plastic trash. I hate polluting the environment especially after watching a special on Discovery Channel about plastic waste and the Pacific ocean. I...
Last month I preordered the Nascar 2011 Wii video game off of Amazon.com. They were running a deal where if you preordered the game then you would receive $10 in a gift certificate to use on Amazon.com. The game was $48 in the end and is totally worth it! I thought that was a...
Last week I had looked over my Verizon Wireless cell phone bill and I was completely shocked. I have 700 minutes on my family plan in which I share with my mother and sister. I had always thought when I bought the cell phone plan that it would be enough minutes for all three...
I purchased a part for my Volvo S80 recently from PandDauto.com (the website for P&D Automotive in Pelham NC). It turned out I didn’t need the part so I called the very next day and asked that they credit back my credit card as they had the part and could easily sell it to...
The other day my mom and I were out grocery shopping at target and they had free samples set up all along the back of the store by the frozen foods. We were excited to say the least because we had not eaten anything yet that day. They had free samples of the Target...
I got tired of paying $3.90 for a gallon of gas – I already have to pay that for my families cars and I didn’t want to do that anymore for my lawnmower. I found a few electric lawnmowers online and most were a little too pricey for me, but then I found this...
