Monday, August 13th, 2007

dollar_20sign.jpgAs summer comes to an end, you can snag some really good bargains online. If you know where to look and what to look for, you will find yourself saving money and wondering why you haven’t been doing this for years!

What’s on sale right now?
Most of the things you’d use in the summer are on sale right now including swimming pools, pool supplies, bathing suits, summer clothes, outdoor entertaining items(picnic items, gazebos,etc.,) outdoor toys, and bikes.

Why buy now?
Buy now for either next year or gifts for the holiday for tremendous savings. If you can find shorts for your kids at 75% off, buy up a size for next year and you’ll have 75% savings on their summer wardrobe next year. Does Santa like to bring new bikes for Christmas? Check out Target, Toys R Us and some of the other outdoor stores online for deals on bikes and outdoor riding toys that you can stash away for the holidays. If you have space, pool accessories will certainly keep until next summer in storage as would summer entertaining items. You can probably get a fabulous deal on outdoor furniture right now!

Ladies: Your guide to buying the perfect sleep set.

Monday, March 12th, 2007

I am very fortunate to be one of those people who never really has a lot of trouble sleeping. For whatever reason, I lay down, turn off the light and zzzz, I’m out. But, according to a National Sleep Foundation’s 2007 Sleep in America poll, over two-thirds of women frequently have sleeping problems.

simmonslogo.jpgAs a response to this fact,
Simmons Beautyrest® has a couple of brochures designed to help women shop for and select the right mattress for them.
They are available at their website as two downloadable PDFs. One is called “A Girl’s Guide to Mattress Shopping,” and the other is “A Woman’s Guide to Mattress Shopping.” The “Girl’s Guide” is intended for the first time mattress shopper, while the “Woman’s Guide” is more in-depth, and is for women who have experience shopping for sleep sets. I checked them both out, and I recommend the Woman’s Guide because it contains essentially the same information as the Girl’s Guide, but has a few extra tidbits of information that I think could help anyone. Both brochures have some generalized advice about getting a better night’s sleep, and suggestions and tips for shopping for mattresses.

Regardless of whether you do experience sleep problems, I think these two guides have some good advice for when it’s time to replace the old mattress and box springs, regardless of the brand name.
