YELP

Even though its true that yelp is one big extortion scam (I cant even count how many times they've called trying to get us to advertise), I started writing on yelp for the first time on saturday, since I was stuck at the salon having to kill time. I have to say, its addictive! Some sort of sick sensation of power in it I think.

Retail Me Not

Want a shopping tip that will change the way you buy online forever?






I'm not a fan of online shopping. I like to see things, touch things. I like the experience, and shopping on the Internet just KILLS it for me.
Sometimes its necessary, and I've never ordered so many things online as I have in the past month.


No matter if I'm ordering a pair of pants, or business cards, if theres an option to put in a coupon code at checkout (and there almost always is), I always go to Retail-Me-Not. User generated and easy to use, people contribute different coupon codes for things like free shipping, a percentage off, a free gift, whatever the site is offering that you would normally have to be a VIP customer or email newsletter subscriber to receive.
Its all kinds of awesome, and if you hate paying for shipping as much as I do, this is likely to make you much less grouchy.
Seriously, theres nothing I hate more than paying $15 for something I know cost $5 to ship.


Try it, love it, thank me later.

I Just Came Up On My Own Google Reader Feed

Bottom left! That speck of blonde curly hair!
....My boyfriend just made me sit through The Matrix (feels pretty damn dated), and I'm feeling easily amused.

Google Reader changed my life a few years back. I only have to go to one website a day! Streamlined baby.
