Great Prices Here

I know this really cool t-shirt site that holds T shirt design contests and I like the designs that they come up with. I like t shirts in general because they are casual, cool, and comfortable and they are such a great way to make a statement about your attitude! And you know what I like even more? T shirts on discount of course! So let us search for the ideal t shirt today: funny, cool, smart, and intelligent and most importantly AT A DISCOUNT!

Prank place.com has a really funny collection of tees with this nice clearance section here. I loved this one that says, “Why don’t you stick that cigarette up your ass? It would be healthier for you“; rude but makes a point loud and clear! It is at an 80% discount and available to you for $6.99.

Jiggy.com is a really cool site for Tshirts, especially if you like to declare what band fan you are. They have t shirts for practically every band from Elvis to Aerosmith and then some. I liked their Aerosmith T shirt for $9.95 but what I liked more is this offensive George Bush T shirt (also on sale at $9.95) and this one that proclaims that a village in Texas has lost its idiot (this one is not on sale though).

Now this site is called so cheap it hurts.com (but IMHO cheap never hurts) and I liked this one that says “Will work for gas”. Very appropriate seeing the prices at the pump these days and even more appropriate at just $6! Oh, and its green: even more appropriate!

This here is a good collection of discounted Tees from Giftapolis with gems such as this “Stressed Out” tee for just $3.95 which will basically warn people to stay out of your way! Then there is this one that says “I am such a bitch”; don’t know if that is a boast or a confession!

Now if you like really offensive Tees, take a look here; they offer 5 tees for $25! Sample this: “Men are inferior” and this one is actually a very accurate but satirical comment on the world as we know it: “Religion: The World’s first weapon of Mass Destruction“

So, go out there and make a statement!

Have you ever thrown a party with a mixed group of attendees and had trouble getting them to interact? It can be a daunting task to get guests who have just met to mingle with each other. Yet, it needs to be accomplished since the success of your party depends on it.

I found a site that offers something that can be a great conversation starter. This site offers great wine glasses, beer mugs, coffee mugs, highball glasses, champagne glasses etc with small phrases and witty messages etched on them. The variety is huge according to the theme you may desire. Each set has four different phrases based on a theme, with the set of four of any variety available at $48. If you buy all three sets of any type, you are charged a discounted rate of $129 (a discount of $15 - thats just me, I have to look for discounts everywhere).

Those of us who have pets know that a pet is pretty much a part of the family and as part of the family we want what is best for our pet. A pet’s needs are not many: food, immunization, accessories etc (for which we shall attempt to find good discounts) and of course lots of love (which cannot be bought and for which therefore we cannot go bargain hunting).

Pet smart.com is a pretty comprehensive site which deals in all things pet related and is conveniently divided into categories: dog, cat, bird, fish, reptile, etc. Within those categories you can find the sub categories for feeding, habitat creation (even habitat décor), grooming related products, toys, treats etc. They have a store locator which will help you see what are the in store discounts or specials that are available within your area. Here you will find discounted items like a tortoise play pen, light dome, backgrounds for pet cages etc.

If you remember, I did a post a few days back about digital cameras, but somehow I felt that it was kind of incomplete without doing a roundup of all the camcorders, or movie cameras or digital video recorders or handycams, call them what you will. Fact is I don’t have one, and what holiday is complete without holiday movies for heaven’s sake! How can I show my face at a tourist spot without a handycam in tow duly forming extension of arm!

Time was it was the Japanese who were seen in every nook and cranny of a tourist spot, sporting the latest, the tiniest, the most sophisticated cameras ever, wide smile unwaveringly fixed in place, but now pretty much everyone seems to have one, so why not me, I say! Let’s explore the possibilities shall we?

I don’t want anything too fancy (or complicated), just something that will help me capture when the kids do or say something really funny or something to shoot the animals at the zoo with; you know the kind of thing? OK now I looked for ‘Handycam’ and all I came up with is Sony models; how perplexing I thought! Then the penny dropped, Handycam is a trade mark name, much like ‘Walkman’ both of which are now pretty much generic. Duh!

When I go to the shops to buy shampoos, conditioners, leave-ins, gels, sprays, whatever, nothing ever seems to be available on discount. Normally I like to smell any hair product that I am thinking of buying and I buy it only if it smells really, really nice. But I am willing to forgo that luxury and buy online if that will fetch me some decent discounts.

Here I found some discounts on hair products such as this conditioning shampoo for men from Nautica for $7.70 down from the retail price of $15. Then this shampoo for colored hair is on a whopping 74% discount and is available for just $6.45. This Elizabeth Arden green tea conditioner also I thought was a good deal for $11.48 at a 36% discount.

I am desirous of new camera. I do not really need one; I have a perfectly adequate Canon 5 megapixel camera which takes very competent photos and even small video clips, but like I said I desire a new one. I covet all of the fancier newer models out there.

Now this Olympus 7.1 MP camera is supposed to be “Shockproof. Waterproof. Freezeproof. Crushproof.’ and is touted as “world’s most durable digital camera”! It is listed on Amazon for a mere $199 at a whopping 47% discount and I really have my beady eye on that one!

Does the urge to get fit and become a lean, mean fighting machine suddenly come upon you? It does me, from time to time. Buying fitness equipment or setting up a home gym is a considerable outlay and you need to think carefully about what exactly you need, what you budget is and if you have the space in your home to set up what you want to get.

I think that a combination of some form of cardiovascular exercise combined with some resistance training is a good overall fitness plan. So I thought that the basics needed for this plan would be say a treadmill or a stationary bike or an elliptical / stepper for the cardio and a basic multi station gym for the resistance/strength training would be quite enough to be getting on with. As for the sauna belts and vibra- this or that, take it from me: completely useless! There is a simple fitness mantra that I think is quite accurate: No Pain, No Gain (or as in this case, no loss).

A while back, I did a post about home decorating that seemed to be pretty popular and elicited quite a bit of comment and appreciation. So I thought that one more post on the subject would not be taken amiss, especially since I am helping out my mother with some additions/alterations to her house and am looking to do the research myself.

The color, material and texture of the cloth or upholstery that you use for your bath or bed linen and curtains is as important as the stuff we discussed earlier (lamps, rugs, decorative items etc). This site simply called the textileshop.com is a one stop shop for all your bed and bath linen requirements. Velvet window treatments here start at $8.49 (down from $16.99). Bath linen here start at under $1 for this Ravello Jaquard Bath towel. You can get a three piece embroidered bath set for $2.99.

I’ve talked about celebrity look alike items (or knock-offs if you prefer that term) before, and touched on the topic of handbags, but those among us who feel passionately about hand bags would agree that several posts and not just part of one post can be devoted to the topic of bags, bags and more bags! Since we are all about discounts or at the very least good value for money, let’s talk about designer ‘inspired’. Let’s face it, if you want a smart, current look and don’t want to do that at the expense of a second mortgage, then you have to consider this option.

Style in the bag is a good collection of bags which has a selection of evening bags and clutches and a good designer inspired section. This classic black clutch (Calvin Klein inspired) would be great to grace any occasion with but will set you back by $19.94! [Read more →]

My mom’s house needed some revamping and sprucing up. So I offered to help her out with it. We decided to start with getting a smart rug and changing some of the lamps and light fixtures. We picked up some of the ideas from my Home Decorating post. We got the rug that I featured in that post. Some good lamps and lights were next on the list. Since we needed a couple for each room, I decided to look it up deeper.

I found this site for all kinds of lighting solutions. They had an impressive collection of indoor lighting. I started looking around for what would fit perfectly into the home. Their products are well categorized making it very simple to find what you are looking for.

I thought this in-line chandelier would work well in the kitchen. I really liked this one too for its different style and concept. It would look good over the dining table I think. It has a wooden base with a glass table top. [Read more →]
