Found An Affordable Christmas Tree

I am late at getting ready for Christmas. Just finished shopping the other day and went out looking for a Christmas tree today. I was half hoping that this close to Christmas I could find a bargain. I have a small car, a small condo, and a small budget, so I was definitely looking for a small tree! I checked out a couple of places, and the cheapest I could find is $45. Sorry, but that is not good enough! Wierdly enough, I went to a very expensive place just for the heck of it. They had a 4 foot frazier fir for $25! I snapped it up and brought it home. Very good for the budget.

Making Money By Eating Pizza

I have found a new good niche in mystery shopping--getting paid for eating pizza! Pizza chains out there want to know how there stores are doing--how the ordering process is, how long it takes for delivery, the quality of pizza, and so on. So, they hire mystery shoppers to try out their product. I have been doing it for a couple of months now and am pleased. Not only do I get dinner free, but sometimes I get a bonus. Can't beat that! And then sometimes they want their competitors shopped, and so on and on it goes. The only requirement--you have to love pizza. But most people do. Good money and good eating.

Using Coupons Again

I have decided to use coupons again, and am anxious to see how much money I save. Probably not a ton, as most of the coupons I see are for products I don't use much. But there are some in the papers that I can use. I have also started using shortcuts.com too, an electronic coupon site, where you can download coupons to your grocery store savings card. The only problem with these electronic coupons, is that they can't be doubled or tripled. But I figure even if I only use one once in a while, it is still a little money saved.

Need Inexpensive Web Host

A friend and I have been creating a website, and it is almost time to launch. Well maybe. A relative of hers was going to finish the website, and it still isn't done. So, it's time to launch, but we might not be able to launch. Hope it won't be too much longer.

I recently went to a wordpress conference, and we talked briefly about webhosts there. It was good to hear the discussion, because I still consider myself a newbie at many things connected to websites and blogs. I have been around them for a while and worked on them, but I have never done them full time, so I feel I have gaps in my knowledge.

The discussion, as you can imagine, involved comparisons of different web hosts. I have heard of some of them, but not all of them. I am going to have to supplement my knowledge with some internet research on web hosting.


So much to learn and do and so little time!
