Wish list – An Audi Car

October 17, 2006 by Tricia

I think at some point in the near future Chris and I will have to get a new car. Probably by next year.

I haven’t really started looking at any cars yet – yes I always do my research on major purchases. However I did come across the Audi website earlier today and I spent some time looking at some of their new luxury cars. I found a few vehicles that I’d love to get if I could.

I’m drawn to sporty cars, so the new Audi TT coupe appeals to me. It’s sleek, beautiful, has race car engineering – what more could a girl want in a sports car? There’s even two folding seats in the back.

Did you know that you can get an Audi executive car with built in bullet proofing? Now I would hope that that wouldn’t be something I would need, but a CEO of a major company, or a celebrity might be interested in this very special feature.

I’m certainly having fun doing a little bit of Internet window shopping.

OsCommerce Cafe Membership

October 16, 2006 by Tricia

I found a site that might be of interest to website designers. The osCommerce cafe where individuals or website designers can sign up for memberships of three months, six months or one year.

What’s this all about and why would you want a membership?

Well, if you visit the osCommerce website you’ll discover that for the low cost of a membership you’ll be able to download as many osCommerce templates as you like. You can use these templates to design your own website, or with some modification to the design website designers can offer these templates to their clients when designing sites for their customers.The osCommerce site was created in March 2006 by the author of “The Programmers’ Guide to osCommerce” – Myles O’Reilly.

The templates offered are kept as up to date as possible, and there is a fairly large selection from which to choose. The various template designs are laid out within easy to use category descriptions. If you are looking for a template to use on an Art or photography site simply select that category and you’ll discover several templates that might be suitable for that type of site. Other categories include Food and Drink, Games, Jewelry, Seasonal, software, and computers, as well as many more categories of design.

The osCommerce Cafe also offers a generous affiliate program that is free to all. By simply placing a referral link to The osCommerce cafe on your site you could earn 25% commission if someone signs up for a membership.

You’ll also find a tutorial section on the osCommerce Cafe website where you can delve into the knowledge base, or view several articles such as how to customize the templates or import to a database. Their FAQ section is also quite extensive covering 20 frequently asked questions with descriptive answers.

A three month membership with osCommerce costs $89, and as I stated above during your period of membership you can download an unlimited number of templates. Compare this to the cost of purchasing a single design from other companies at a price of perhaps $150 and you’ll realize that this company is offering you quite a bargain.

All natural Cholesterol suppliment

October 16, 2006 by Tricia

While I was surfing the internet today I came across a site that sells an all natural supplement that claims to lower cholesterol levels. This supplement might be worth investigating if you suffer from high cholesterol levels. As a nurse I know very well how important it is for people to keep an eye on their cholesterol levels, and how vital it is that they be controlled.

The active ingredients in Vasacor work to block your bodies absorption of fats in the intestine. Natural phytosterols in this supplement bind with cholesterol in your bloodstream, transporting it to your liver for excretion from your system. The end result is that it leaves less cholesterol in your system, thus reducing your cholesterol levels.

Vasacor offers a 90 day money back guarantee, and states that if you don’t begin to see results within 30 days you may return the product and get your money back.

Please visit the website and read about this new supplement, and while you are there you can also read the information regarding the clinical trials that this natural supplement has undergone.

Get a free Ipod!

October 15, 2006 by Tricia

If you’re like me you’ve seen those sites that say you can get yourself a free ipod, and you might have even signed up with one of them – like I did many many months ago. Unfortunately you almost always need to refer friends to the site, and you have to sign up with other companies and buy their products before, and only if you fulfill every single seemingly easy obligation, you end up getting your free Ipod.

You know what I’m talking about right?

What are you waiting for? Get a Free iPod from iPodSweepstakes.com Now I know everyone wants an Ipod, don’t they?

This site offers free ipods. In fact they give away a free ipod to one of their members every single day! What’s the catch? None – you don’t have to refer friends or purchase products. Nope, nothing like that. You just need to be a member for a chance to win one of the free Ipods that they give away each day. Of course you could earn an ipod by participating in surveys, completing offers and requesting free information from their supporter sites if you wanted to get one that way.
