Another Day in Paradise

I understand there are different types of people and personalities in the world, but who in the world (with access to the internet) would need to attend a coupon class? All you need to know how to do is READ. lol

I’ve only been using coupons for the past few weeks and I’m not saying I know it all because I certainly don’t. But I’m hard pressed to imagine there is anything in a coupon workshop that hasn’t already been detailed on the web whether in blogs, forums or videos or any other way. The information is at my fingertips and I can sit home in my underwear and get all the information available and get it instantly.

I just don’t get it. Why would I get all gussied up and drive to Timbucktoo just to have someone tell me how do something I’ve already read on the web? If I have questions, there are thousands upon thousands of coupon “experts” and divas and queens and kings more than willing to lend a hand. And I appreciate every one of them. :)

Yowser… I’m glad to see my favorite stores are not on this list.


If you purchase something at Walmart (excluding groceries) between November 1 and December 25 but see the same item at a lower price elsewhere, just bring your original Walmart receipt and the competitor’s print ad to Walmart and get reimbursed in the form of a gift card.

As always, I don’t plan to do much Christmas shopping this year. I think the whole thing is a racket so I generally ignore Christmas altogether. If I do have occasion to purchase something at Walmart and see it on sale for a lower price I will take advantage of the price matching. The only thing I’m thinking about buying so far this year is the new Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim video game but I haven’t really decided yet.

I upgraded my plugin and now it has completely stopped working… :(

Okay, Text Link Ads is only $7.00 per month at the moment but dang, it helps my PayPal account every month… Text Link Ads is the ONLY blog monetizing system that has ever worked consistently and reliably since the day I started this blog…

I just have to figure out what the problem is… I remember when I first got TLA that it took up to 24 hours for the links to show up on the blog… I’ll give it a day and hope for the best… if it still isn’t working I’ll have to email tech support…

Edit: Found a backup of a previous plugin and uploaded it. Fixed!

I just realized this blog is 4 years old this month… actually, I think that is pretty amazing… to think that a site I started 4 years ago is still running and viable today pretty much blows my mind… I don’t think I’ve ever stuck with anything on the internet for that length of time.. well, except for WoW… http://www.worldofwarcraft.com…
