Did you go to the Jusco sale? I think it was like two weeks ago but I’ve been too busy to blog about it. Anyways, I try not to miss it because it’s probably one of the more genuine sales out there.
You get a good upfront discount and then another 5-10% off your total purchases on top of that. Do the math and you know it’s not a bad deal.
My girls and I bought a pair of jeans each at 70% off. I think theirs were AppleMints and mine was Diesel. Oops, forgot to snap a photo. Suffice to say, they were really worth it.
We didn’t buy as much as we thought we would at the grocery section because most things were not that much cheaper. The lines were long enough that I managed to make friends with a few of the ladies in line 
. I mean, what do you expect? Everyone was complaining. We were tired of standing in line and there was nothing else to do but chit-chat, you know.

Way back in July (whoa, that seems like a lifetime ago ), I told y’all I got myself a new toy and that I needed time to play with it first before I can tell you what I think about it… so you too can run out and grab one!! Remember?
Yes, so this is it. My new, now semi-new, iPAQ Business Navigator, the best darned thing ever… as far as I’m concerned.
… better, slicker, faster than that silly, oh-so-clumsy iPhone DH has. Blek!! Yes, we have 2 camps in our family - the Apple haters (aka my 3 kids + me = 4!) and the Apple polisher (aka DH).
So you tell me, who’s gonna win when it comes to buying pocket PCs? By the way, we only have one cell phone which Skye (my 12yo) is currently using. The rest of us have pocket PCs.
Okay, back to my iPAQ. I love that it’s black, very professional-looking, no-nonsense and being somewhat of a tomboy myself, I find black looks rather masculine.
This new iPaq has everything my old iPaq (which Raine, my 15yo is using right now) had + more, including a much louder ringing volume, a huge screen (gotta love that), a keypad which was missing from my old iPaq and a 3 megapixel camera that takes great quality shots.
Functionality-wise, it keeps me on my toes with my
- schedules of when I’m having coffee with my friends
- alarms to remind me to pick up my kids and pay the bills
- grocery lists coming out my ears
- music playlist for my gym workouts
- games to keep me occupied while waiting for my kids at school
- and basically whatever else a fullblown PC can do.
So I’m one happer camper *whistles a happy tune*.
