Goodbye High Heels

I’ve totally given up on high heel shoes and have swapped them out for pairs of Privos. I bought my first pair over the summer after slipping at falling at an office function while wearing my high heels and I vowed never to wear those again. At least with my Privo shoes I can walk for miles and not ever experience tired feet or any discomfort at all. There are padded cushions within that really helps to soothe your feet while you walk plus these are flat shoes; who can say no to comfort?

Finding The Best Buy

Many people are trying to find the best buy for the product they are looking for. Instead of using so much gas, going from store to store, they often look on the internet first. You can go to sites to search for different items or just browse and you’ll be surprised to what you’ll find at a much cheaper price than you’ve seen it sold for in stores. I always check on the internet first to find the Best Buy I can get something for. It is very interesting how stores can sell it for a high price but when you search for it on the internet, there is no difference in the product except for the price. I do not know why I did not do this several years ago, instead of the past year. I could have really saved a lot of money by doing so.

Buying a Nascar Jacket

Hey have you seen those really awesome Nascar jackets that are on the market now. I picked up one at the store for myself last week and my girlfriend loved it! So last night I couldn’t sleep so I decided to turn on the tv and do some channel surfing and I saw that QVC had the jackets for women. My girlfriend would totally love them. There is a really cute stand up collar that I know would look awesome on my girl and not to mention the zipped feature at the front of the jacket. There is even an embroidered Dale Earnhardt signature on it and since she is a fan of Dale she would be stoked over this. I can’t wait for it to be delivered to the house.

Finding The Perfect TV Stand

I went to Nebraska Furniture Mart the other day and looked at some of their TV stands. Most of them seemed pretty overpriced compared to the prices you can find them for online, even after paying shipping charges. I’m trying to find a new TV stand for our living room, but I’m having a hard time deciding which one to buy. I’d like to find one that matches our furniture if possible, but I really like the looks of a few of them that don’t match. Oh well. The search continues.

Phillips DVP-5990 and Western Digital WDTV HD

About 6 months ago a friend of mine purchased a new Samsung HDTV. He got it for a pretty good price and I’m pretty impressed with the picture quality. We don’t really watch BluRay movies on it, but his Phillips DVD player (model DVP-5990) with 1080p upconversion via HDMI cable and USB video playback looks very nice on it. We compared playing DVDs with the standard RCA cables and the HDMI cables and there is a very noticeable difference when watching a movie with upconversion. I didn’t really think it would really play movies back much clearer with the HDMI cable, but I love it. I would definitely recommend the Phillips DVP-5990 to anyone who is looking for a great DVD player that has 1080p upconversion and also plays DivX/XviD video formats. We hooked up a few different USB devices, such as a standard USB flash drive, an external Western Digital 1TB MyBook, a 16gb SDHC card with a USB card reader, and a 500gb Western Digital Passport drive, and everything played flawlessly. The only thing you have to do is be sure your USB device is formatted to FAT32 instead of NTFS file system. Videos also loaded quite a bit faster from USB, compared to load times from CD and DVD media. I own the same Phillips DVD player. You can even download custom firmware to load on the Phillips DVP-5990 to change how the menus look, add your own splash screen while the player is loading and add more functionality to the player, such as skipping to a specific time while watching DivX videos. The Phillips DVP-5992 is the same DVD player, but it is silver instead of black.

Another video player I would recommend is the Western Digital WDTV Live HD player with network support. You can find it for about $99 and it plays nearly every video format you can think of. It even plays HD .mkv x264 videos, which I have been using for my home videos, to save space and video quality.

Area Rugs

I love my wooden floors but I just couldn’t resist the area rug that I saw at the department store over the weekend. This rug had some great patterns which go along well with my current living room color scheme. I probably paid around $50 for the rug and it is stain and fade resistant which means less work for me. The area rug comes with a matching mat which I’m also thinking about getting by next payday.

Buying Diamonds

One of the reasons I hate going shopping with my fiancé is that she always encourages me to spend extra money that I just don’t have. I mean who would have thought that a casual visit to the department store in search of pillows and scented candles could have resulted in me racking up my credit card buying her diamonds. It amazes me how good she has gotten at this game. There was actually a time in our relationship when she was too shy to approach me for things that she wanted. I think that day leaving the store the gleam on her face was brighter than that diamond.

Anti-Aging Eye Cream

My aunt recently started using anti-aging eye cream or anti-wrinkle eye cream. She has tried several different eye cream brands in the past and wasn’t happy with any of them, but the one she is using now really seems to be working very well. It’s called Prototype #37-C. I guess it’s the world’s first 99% peptide serum and works very, very well. I’m thinking about buying some for my mother, because she is always trying different wrinkle creams and eye cream, too.

My New Plasma TV Stand

Last weekend I was at Nebraska Furniture Mart and picked up a new plasma TV stand for my room. It looks so much better than I thought it was going to look. I don’t know why I waited until now to buy a TV stand. I think it looks even better than having it mounted on the wall. It wasn’t that expensive, either. My neighbor saw mine and now he’s planning on buying the same exact one.
