It’s the end of the year and this is usually the time when people are looking to relocated or move to new homes. I see lots of for-sale signs up on the lawns around my neighborhood.
Someone was talking about Owner Financing and frankly I have to admit I don’t know much about it at all. It’s something new to me. I was told I can read it up on OwnerFinanceListings.com which contains a listing of owner financed homes and a wealth of information about the benefits, the pitfalls and your burning questions answered. Sounds like the place for me if I want to find out more.

If you have an online business, it would be around this time that it’s abuzz with activity as everyone tries to make an extra buck or two to reward themselves at the end of the year. Which is fair considering the state of the economy and how every little bit helps.
Well, at least that’s what I’ve been doing, and knowing how your local online marketing efforts are faring isn’t exactly a bad thing either. That’s the only way to see if your efforts are paying off, right?
I’ve recently discovered Orange Soda which gets your website into web directories and reading a few orangesoda.com reviews to help you get started is probably a good thing too. Its important to get an idea of what your online reputation is like and not wait until something blows up before you take action.
I think it’s called being proactive. Frankly how many of us actually are proactive enough for our good. But there’s still time to do something about it. Add your online business reputation into your list of New Year resolutions and keep your eye on it as you work your business next year. Having a great reputation really pays off in dollars and sense

If you wear eyeglasses, you know how freakin’ expensive they can get! The good news is you can get quality eyeglasses very affordably if you get them directly from the factory.
I learnt from an article on the Examiner entitled “Cheap eyeglasses are a reality” that Zenni Optical is able to offer very low prices because there are no middlemen, no advertising and no retail costs.
If you’re looking to spend as little as $8 for a pair of full prescription eyeglasses, be sure you go check out Zenni Optical’s holiday eyeglasses frames. The word out there is that they’re definitely worth checking out yourself.

You will notice that on occasion, I do dish out some basic fashion advice on this blog. Yeah, just stuff that I hope will help people make better shopping decisions. I mean, there are just so many options out there that it can sometimes be a little overwhelming when we shop and sometimes we wish we could do with a second opinion to validate our indecisions.
In many ways, we’re all experts in our own right with many experiences to share, which brings me to point out a premium knowledge/consulting site where you can dish out your dose of advice in any and all fields, and even stand to make a little money on the side.
WisdomPan.com allows you to create your account for free and you can start offering your advice on the field of your choice. For instance, if you’re into fashion, you may post your offer for fashion advice and your charges so people can come to you on a consultation or subscription basis.
WisdomPan charges you a small transaction fee when you get paid for your advisory services. You may also conduct an unlimited number of live webinars and live meetings with their meeting platform for free. I think it’s a pretty interesting site and I can think of some ways to benefit from it.

In the continuing saga of my Colgate toothpaste gone stinky, the dispatcher/agent showed up at my house with an envelope, apparently in exchange for the rotten tubes.
The other day, their customer service lady had told me she would just send the guy to pick up my 5 tubes of toothpaste (2 bad tubes + 3 good tubes that I wanted to exchange just in case they were bad too).
She’d been reluctant to do a direct exchange, suggesting instead that she first send the bad tubes to Thailand for testing (as if she didn’t believe me!). So I was a little surprised when the guy came with an envelope.
Inside was 4 tubes of toothpaste! Only 4? I was like what? Are you serious? Five tubes for four??? What kind of customer service is this?! The lady knew I was going to turn in 5 tubes!
It’s not the dispatcher’s fault. I know that. He’s just doing his job so I didn’t scream him. But even he understood that it wasn’t right for them to shortchange me like that!
So he agreed to take back only the 2 bad tubes in exchange for the 4 new tubes he brought. I think that’s very decent of him. I hope his boss doesn’t give him a hard time back at the office. At any rate, if the customer service lady calls me later, I’ll have a thing or two to tell her
