I love it when I can save money

December 26, 2006 by Tricia

I just love getting discounts at my favorite stores – whether they be ones I drive to, or ones that I point my browser at.

One site that I enjoy visiting online is the Coupon Chief. They always have great coupons and promo codes for items at brand name well known stores. For example, I was looking at their Linens ‘n Things coupon codes and I noticed that right now they have a coupon for 50% off flannel bedding and $40 of cookware.

I think I’m going to browse through the coupon savings for that store for a while. I love that store and if I could save money when I make my purchases great!

Merry Christmas!

December 25, 2006 by Tricia

I just wanted to take a moment to wish all of my readers and visitors a very Merry Christmas and or a Happy Holiday.

I hope you are all having a wonderful time with friends and family. Enjoy, and be safe!

Me … I’m here at home at the moment (Christmas eve at the time of writing) and my neighbors in the adjoining house are having a Filipino karaoke party! LOUD and very bad singing of Christmas carols going on.

I’m so glad that I’m going to be traveling out of town on Christmas day to visit my in-laws for a Christmas meal. That’s one great way to escape the karaoke neighbors, and our elderly neighbors who’s taken to banging on ALL of our windows until we hear her and open the door.

Have a Good One!

Just like the rose I featured on the As the Garden Grows, this too is one of my favorite roses. It’s name is Valencia and it’s full, huge, multi-petaled and just lovely to look at. As you can see it also photographs very nicely as well.

Look at the bloom. Don’t you feel like you could just dive into this heavenly rose blossom?

Gardeners, Plant and Nature lovers can join in every Sunday, visit As the Garden Grows for more information.

Please Only list your name if you have a recent Green Thumb Sunday post

Prebook your hotel rooms before you travel

December 24, 2006 by Tricia

Are you going on a holiday in the new year? I don’t think I am, but when I do, I know exactly where to go to look for well priced hotel rooms and other forms of accommodation. You see, there’s a site called HotelResverations.com and they list available hotel rooms, bed and breakfasts, condo rentals and other types of vacation rentals world wide. All you have to do is visit the site, pick a destination and book your hotel reservation, it’s really that easy.

You’ll be pleased with the prices too. I decided to test out their site price wise by trying to find room availability here in Toronto for mid January. Now, we tried to get hotel rooms in August for my husbands family when they all came to town for a wedding and not only was there almost no availability thanks to several conventions going on at that time, but the rooms that were available were very expensive – like $150 to $175 per night or even higher. I realize that summer is tourist season here and that hotel room prices may fluctuate depending on the season but when I searched on Hotel Reservations I found that most prices for the rooms suggested to me were well under $100 and since I know the area and the hotels that were brought up on the page, I know that those prices were fantastic.

So if you are going to be traveling and you want to book your rooms in advance visit Hotelreservations.com. before you go. I think you’ll be quite happy with the prices and the accommodations.

Drip dry puppies?

WhoLettheDogsOut

Someone must have been on a spree. I wonder if they washed the puppies and left them out to dry? That’s what it looks like to me. Poor things look kind of helpless hanging on the line don’t they?

I’d like to take a moment and thank all of my readers for their visits this past year, and to wish all of you –

Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas and Happy kwanzaa!
Enjoy the holiday and stay safe.
