Get a deal of the day and save up to 70 percent

June 25, 2007 by Tricia

If you know someone with a birthday, anniversary or other special occasion coming up I’m sure you’ve been searching for the perfect gift? Right? No … you’ve been too busy?

Well, if you need to find some great deals on gift items you might find the CityDeals.com website to be right up your alley. Each day at 9 a.m. mountain time there’s a feature that allows you to get up to 70% discount on gift cards every day. Isn’t that great?

The gift cards or gift certificates are from well known restaurants, clothing retailers, hotels, restaurants and more. You do have to act quick when you visit the site though as there’s a limited quantity gift cards each day.

It appears that todays deal was a golf course certificate.

You’ll also find hot deals, shopping deals and much more. The site is billed as “Your source for national and neighborhood deals”. Just register with City Deals and you’ll be ready to get your hands on a great deal of the day.

Never lose important messages again – Backup your E-mail

June 24, 2007 by Tricia

Have you ever turned on your computer and clicked on your email program only to have it crash because a virus was attached to one of the emails that you were collecting? Or perhaps for some reason your email program has crashed for no apparent reason?

It’s not fun is it? Especially if you end up losing some of your stored email or if your stored email gets corrupted!

It’s happened to me a few times and I happen to store a lot of important emails such as internet jobs I’ve completed and payments I’ve received in folders in my email program.

If you’ve had experiences like this you might be interested in a software program that will allow you to backup e-mail. Now you’ll never lose your stored email again!

What I really like about this program is that you can schedule e-mail backups. It would probably be a wise idea to schedule back ups once a week or even daily if you get a lot of important e-mail that you need to keep on hand.

Backup E-mail supports popular email applications such as Outlook Express and Microsoft outlook and you can even use the program to back up your internet explorer favorites too. Use the program to back up your address book, mail and news accounts, messages, blocked lists and store them in a single file that is compressed and can be password protected for security.

Check out the Backup E-Mail program at http://www.backup-email.com/ where you can download a trial version or purchase the full version for just $24.95.

Interchangable memory

June 24, 2007 by Tricia

One of my friends has a Dell computer and she was telling me that she wanted to increase her computers memory but she was having a hard time getting Dell Memory for her computer.

I still find it funny sometimes when people assume that they must stick with a brand name, or the exact brand name of their product, when getting accessories or in this case improving their computers capacity.

I explained to her that as long as she got the same type of memory it didn’t matter if it was made by Dell. Of course you also have to get the same size, so if she had one 256K memory then she’d have to get another of the same size other wise she might run into trouble.

I just thought I’d post about this in case others were under the same assumption that you always have to buy the product by the same manufacturer.

Corporate casual wear – have your logo placed on garments

June 21, 2007 by Tricia

I was just visiting a site called Corporate Casuals and I think they’ve come up with a fantastic idea. Companies can have custom embroidered shirts and apparel made to order.

They can use this apparel either as part of a uniform that their employees would wear or as items to sell in the gift shop to their customers.

Just think. Perhaps you own a business where the employees can dress casually but you’d like them all to have a similar dress code? Get custom t-shirts made with your company logo embroidered on to the shirt.

If you have a popular business – a fun restaurant or trendy shop – you could get shirts, hats, active wear, outerwear, bags, items for kids and printed tees made up for your businesses gift shop.

There’s nothing better than having your employees or clients walking around wearing your companies logo. It’s free advertising.

The site is really easy to use. Upload your own design or logo, or browse through their catalog of embroidered designs and create your own on design on the spot. All you need to do after that is choose which types of garments that you’d like to order choosing quantity and sizes and then pay for your order.

It generally takes three to four days for your orders to be complete but they will be shipped out shortly after completion. You can order next day deliver but that would of course occur once the order was actually complete.

Visit Corporate Casuals if you are interested in having custom designed casual wear for your business or upcoming event.

Custom made down comforters and pillows

June 21, 2007 by Tricia

Is there anything more luxurious than lying in a bed that’s been made up with fresh sheets, and a beautiful warm comforter? Isn’t that a wonderful feeling? Especially if you’re lucky enough to have no reason to get out of that comfy bed?

Why on earth am I talking about warm beds and comforters when most of North America is warming up for summer? Well, don’t you know that this is the best time of year to purchase warm bedding? It’s on sale!

Visit the Plumeria Bay website and you’ll see that their featured comforters are on sale for 30% off right now.

Actually, you can use a comforter any time of year if you purchase the right type. Plumeria Bay makes comforters of different warmth levels. They have summer, autumn, winter and deep winter fills. Each of which will either keep you covered and cool in the summer or cozy and warm in the winter.

Plumeria Bay manufactures and sells Down Comforters, duvet covers, bed linens and Down Pillows. Their pillows and featherbeds are made at the time of your order.

The very best Egyptian cottons, Italian Linen and German silks are used to create their duvet covers and bed linens. These are truly luxurious quality products at Plumeria Bay.

Imagine. A company that makes your down comforter and bedding to order. I think that it’s amazing to be able to order a quality product such as this that’s made to order. Did I mention that they offer free shipping, and that they guarantee satisfaction?

Visit Plumeria Bay. You won’t be disappointed.
