Selling Watch Bands

SELLING WATCH BANDS
Guest post from: Constance Rodgers
I have been watching my eBay auction all day using my clearwireless connection. I found some really great watch bands at an estate sale. They fit a Phillip Stein watch. There were four bands. One was stingray, one was a pink alligator, one was a yellow leather, and the last was a silver leather. Usually, they retail for well over one hundred dollars a piece. If you are having a hard time picturing what the watch looks like, it is the one with two faces that Oprah always wore. I bought all three nearly new bands for only twenty dollars. They came with a case too! I listed them on Ebay and started the bid at sixty-five dollars. Today is the ending day, and I love watching the price go up and up. The price tends to really go up in the last hour of bidding, I am just so excited to see how much money I can make! Maybe I should go into selling stuff on eBay full time!

Netflix vs. Redbox

Netflix vs. Redbox
Written by Sherri Hicks
The other day while I was looking into cable packages on http://www.expertsatellite.com/, a commercial came on television letting the public know that the movie Horrible Bosseshad been released on DVD. I was really excited because I had wanted to see this movie for a while, but refused to pay to see it in the theater. There are some movies that I will pay to see when the big screen adds to the impact through action or special effects. However, when it comes to comedies or dramas, I’m fine watching them at home. I had cancelled the DVD portion of my Netflix subscription when the prices increased, so I had to use Redbox. I went to my local grocery store to pick the movie up thinking that they’d surely have it in stock since they have two Redbox machines. I forgot to check online to make sure it was in, so I was very disappointed to find that neither machine had it in stock. I miss Netflix for the convenience, but definitely not for the price.

new tv

New TV
The Author of this post is Cheryl Martinez
For Christmas last year, my husband and I decided to get a new TV for ourselves. I had no problem with the TV we had, but my husband insisted that we needed a flat screen HD TV. I did not realize it, but apparently when we got satellite TV from http://www.directstartv.com/, we got a lot of HD channels. My husband said that we were not taking advantage of all of our HD channels because we did not have an HD television. It did not take us long to find the TV we wanted in the store because my husband had done a lot of research before we went and already knew which TV he wanted. After we purchased the TV, we headed home and my husband immediately hooked it up. I was amazed at the difference in picture quality and told my husband that I was really glad we decided to make such a big purchase for ourselves. My husband has big plans for our TV during football season. He plans to have his entire fantasy football league over to watch a few games and I am sure that he will want to have a Super Bowl party as well.

Second child


Thanks to Olga Quinn
My wife and I recently had our second child, and it has been a major adjustment. It has not been as big of an adjustment as going from no kids to one kid, but it has been pretty close. Our daughter slept through the night very early on, and from the beginning was a very pleasant baby. Our son, on the other hand, has been a very difficult baby from the moment he got here. Along with dealing with the lack of sleep, we have been trying to juggle in increased expenses that come with another mouth to feed. We recently switched to fixed-rate energy through www.texaselectricityproviders.com. We also refinanced our house in order to get the low interest rate that is currently available. In the long run my wife and I know everything will be fine, but these last few weeks have been very stressful. Raising children is hard work. My parents had four kids, as did my wife’s parents, and we both do not know how we are going to manage with only two. It gives me a whole new level of respect for the parents of big families.

Books are your friend.

I am a big reader. I love books and would even love to work in a library one day, I'm currently working toward this goal. I love books about vampires and werewolves. I also love books about witches and drugs. I currently own all the Twlight books and a few of the House of Night series. As a a kid I loved Goosebumps and Fear Street.
I'm always looking for book sales. I love getting books at a good price. I would love to go out a buy a new book when it comes out, but my money situation is the best right now. Finding books on sale is a big deal for me.
I'm really hoping my love of books rubs off on my daughter. I love reading to her. She loves the pretty pictures of mostly cats right now. I try to read a book to her everyday. It's so cute seeing her try to read them, she is only  2.
I wish the whole world had a love of books. I would love to spark a love for reading in every young child in the world. Maybe one day I'll do that.
