I’ve been busy . . .

Saturday, December 6th, 2008

Which is why I haven’t been posting here too often.  This last week has been a long and trying week for us.  Nothing major has went wrong — just a ton of little things.  I took last weekend off, and I just never got back into the swing of things. The highlights of my week — Will getting diagnosed again with impetigo and we got new cable, satellite, and phone service.  I’ve got a ton of catching up to do, so I’ll be posting a tad later with the other events.

You all know how much I love Black Friday shopping.  However, I was given some top secret information regarding Lands End!  They are having a Daily St. Nick Pick, and I know what tomorrow’s deal is.  Normally, Lands End’s cashmere items run about $89.  Tomorrow, they will be on sale for $50!!!  Start your Black Friday shopping early and head over to Lands End tomorrow!

Talking Turkey & Help Me Please

Thursday, November 6th, 2008

I wish I had some great Thanksgiving stories.  However, we normally end up going to somebody elses house for Thanksgiving, so I dont’ have to cook.  Ever.  Honestly, it is nice.  However, this year my parents are coming here for Thanksgiving, so I have to cook my own dinner (with some help from my mom I hope!  Though she won’t be coming up till Thanksgiving day itself, so I may not have as much help as I’d like! They are coming here so I have some company doing some Black Friday shopping (though my mom is refusing to go stand outside at Best Buy at 3 am.  Yes, I am that dedicated.  LOL)

I have a feeling this Thanksgiving I will have a ton of material to post about regarding my experience.  I don’t think Bill and I have ever made a real turkey by ourselves.  That is why its nice to know that Butterball has a Turkey Talk-Line.  You can call 1-800-BUTTERBALL  and talk to their meal preparation experts (writing that phone number down myself), or you can visit Butterball.com for Web chats with a few bloggers – Chris Jordan (Notes from the Trenches), Susan Wagner (Friday Playdate), and Roxanna (Miguelina) on November 11, 18 and 25 from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. CST.  They will answer all your turkey related questions. Now, if any of you have any advice for me, I’ll gladly take it.  We just won’t tell anyone.  :)

Return Address Labels & Superior Labels

Saturday, September 27th, 2008

I just recently ordered some return address labels from Superior Labels. I have to say that I am impressed with their service and their quality of labels. There is nothing more that I hate than to have to put my return address all of my Christmas cards or birthday invitations.  What I like most about Superior Labels is that you can order by the sheet or by the roll.  Basically, you can order whatever your needs are.  You can pick what you want on your labels also.  Do you want a black and white graphic?  They have those.  Do you want a color graphic?  They have those too.  How about custom graphics?  Well, you can do those also.  They even have university graphics!  Not sure what exactly you want?  They have an entire online catalog of graphics to choose from!  You can even get return address labels starting at only $1!  Now, I personally ordered a roll of labels.  It is a huge roll – I didn’t realize that 300 labels were that many!  I am so glad that I also ordered a return label dispenser too.  I am hoping that it will keep my children from using these labels as stickers!  It also keeps the labels from sticking to other things they shouldn’t in my cupboard.

What I like best about Superior Labels is that they have very cheap shipping.  The cheapest shipping starts at $2.95 (vs $7.95 from their leading competitor).   There is also no upload fee for custom graphics (which starts at $5 elsewhere).  I love that you can even order free address labels and do a test run (you just have to cover the shipping).  If you want a good quality product for a great price, check out Superior Labels.  You won’t be disappointed.  (I know I wasn’t!)
