Time to get your eyes checked

admin — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 15:10:55 +0000

Brian Reagan has a comedy bit on going to the eye Dr. where he talks about the uncomfortable atmosphere of being in a dark room with another man. As the eye Dr. moves his chair closer to you and then seems to be just inches from your face you can’t help to comment on his breath or wonder if you are going to be able to pass the eye exam. Buying eyeglasses takes a on a whole new look when you think about the pressure that we put ourselves though in order to see better. That is why paying big bucks for prescription glasses does not have to be one of those stress factors.
The company that brings you some of the cheapest prescription eyeglasses online or off is continuing to get notice. The latest article in the New York Times titled Seeing Straight Without Breaking the Bank is another media outlet taking notice of the great bargains eyeglass wearers are getting from Zenni Optical. They offer very affordable prices and like the New York Times title states, they won’t break the bank or your pocketbook.

Finding the right style and color of eyeglasses to wear is just half of the shopping experience. The price of our prescription glasses is what a lot of people will look at first. You can relax about the cost of your new eyeglasses from Zenni Optical. You can also find a great write up on the company on Erics review of Zenni and get a good idea of the overall company and how they are able to make such inexpensive glasses. You won’t find another place offering glasses as affordable as these are. Don’t overpay for glasses again and start spending that money on something else. You’re not going to pay hundreds of dollars here and you will probably be able to buy a half dozen pairs of eyeglasses for the cost of one pair that most places offer. Every penny counts today with the economy doing so bad and it looks like it will continue for the rest of the 2009 year. Give your self a stimulus package and buy your next eyeglasses here, so you can have more money to focus on other things!

Old games we used to play

admin — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 20:22:41 +0000

Those days of watching westerns on Saturday afternoons and going out in the yard to play cowboys and Indians are gone. The computers with internet and a number of video games are plugged into the television sets now and the kids of today don’t know much about them cowboy and Indian battles. I can remember when watching cartoons were a big deal every Saturday morning and that was the only time they came on. The Saturday morning cartoons have been replaced with a channel that shows cartoons 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.

I could just imagine what Santa gets to hear right now with the kids sitting on his lap asking him for the toys of today. I don’t guess he gets many kids that say they want a couple of guns and holsters for Christmas this year. I can still see the way 2 six shooters were packaged in a box that would include your holster, a badge, and usually a red bandana if your parents bought the good set. You didn’t need to ask Santa for any Indian supplies, because you could just imagine that the Indians were out there. If you were lucky enough to talk one of your buddies into being a Indian, the magic markers or make up would be enough to write a few lines across the face. The cowboy and Indian days are just not with us anymore and not many new western movies are coming out either.

I’m not trying to say that we were better off in those days when Indians were our biggest fear. We do have some modern fears that parents didn’t have to worry about then. Some of the brain exercises that are available today to stimulate our thinking instead of just sitting in front of the TV are great extensions and can help parents and their kids rejuvenate the creative mind. On the positive side of things, our kids are learning how to use computers in school and speak in other languages. I know some of us learned a few words in another language too, but the kids of today can practice it with their friends or neighbors who speak that other language fluently. Our kids of today should grow up much smarter and healthier than when I was growing up as a child in the late 70’s and 80’s generation. I just wish they could play cowboys and Indians like I use to or pretend to be the Lone Ranger that had a Indian sidekick named Tonto. QPMAV835E82T

Taking care of your home

admin — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 02:06:58 +0000

California has battled fire and floods in the past year and its happening in one of the most well-known areas of Southern California in Malibu. So much money is in that area and the nice homes to prove it. It’s really amazing to see all these million dollar homes being threatened by the fires in that area right now. The winds played a major role in spreading the damage and make matters worse and some of the gusts reached up to 50 mph.

I’m sure the homeowners are very worried out there and they probably aren’t the only ones, as I’m sure homeowners insurance will be writing a lot of big checks for that area, if a lot of these luxury homes do go up in blazes. I guess in some cases you will have art, furniture, jewelry, and other expensive items that you really can’t put a price on. The insurance companies might need to seek federal aid, if these claims start coming in as fast, like an area that’s been hit by a hurricane or tornado.

Who will win Super Bowl XLIV

admin — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 18:49:45 +0000

I am going against the odd makers and say that New Orleans will the 2010 Super Bowl. I do not have an allegiance to either team and hope that overall it is a great game and goes down to the wire. I like the prospects of the long throws that Drew Brees can accomplish against a Colts Defense. Plus the fact that New Orleans has never been to the big game and they are the Cinderella story. All the hype leading up to the game is especially interesting with the side stories and one that I found interesting was the security and enforcement around the clothing and souvenirs that are being sold around the game. Apparently the NFL has some claim and ownership in the “Who Dat” saying that has followed the New Orleans so shirts and hats with this saying not sanctioned by the NFL could be confiscated.
Even those business owners looking to capitalize on the big game by purchasing wholesale sunglasses and then repackaging them with similarities to the Super Bowl Logo or team names could find themselves in the cross airs of the security teams at this years big game. While I agree with protecting the Brand of the NFL this game is all about the love of the sport and watching the two best teams battle it out for the sole winner and NFL Champion title.

Is your auto insurance ready for you

admin — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 17:14:34 +0000

With millions of drivers on the road today you are required in all states to carry auto insurance that will not protect you but those in your vehicle in case of an accident. Many people look at auto insurance as a necessary evil and something that they hope they will never use. Unfortunately most people will end up filing a claim in their driving lifetime. The competition for your business is at an all time with major companies advertising on TV and online you cannot escape the commercials. Many of them are touting to be the lowest and best priced insurance company offering incentives for good driving behavior or being able to customize your plan. There are some great resources online that can help you submit your information once and then you have insurance companies bidding on your business which can a be huge time saver and help you see which plan might be right for you.

Protect your iPhone

admin — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 06:36:51 +0000

When the most recent iPhone 3Gs was released I had to take a look at the new speed and find out if it was worth upgrading my current iPhone. After playing with the device I was sure that this was my next phone. I am not usually one to jump on the technology that has been just released but I must say the features and ease of use of this phone is incredible. My other question was since this is supposed to be internet friendly and we are able to watch YouTube videos how much extra were the services going to be. Luckily they have thought this part through and the iPhone has it’s own plans with unlimited web and email. The plans are comparable to their standard plans with just a few less minutes. But with their roll over minutes and the fact that everyone who I call that is on the AT&T network don’t count towards my minutes this make for a great buy.
I was even considering iPhone Insurance because I know several friends that have ended the life of their new iPhone through the washer, or their kids dropping them while they were playing a game. My iPhone has become such an integral part of my social networking and blogging that I need to know that I can have additional protection against damage not usually covered by Apple Care. I found a great product comparison of various insurance options that you can purchase to protect your iPhone from spills,drops, and theft. Because of the popularity of the iPhone they have become a prime target of tech thieves that grab these high tech gadgets and then resell them on the grey market. With companies like the Worth Ave Group that also offer Laptop Insurance you can protect your iPhone. With a small deductible and a yearly cost starting at $63 you can insure your iPhone that will provide coverage that not many other companies are willing to provide. Here is an example of the typical cost to insure your iPhone:

$55 for 8GB
$63 for 16GB
$69 for 16GB 3GS
$79 for 32GB 3GS

These are yearly insurance costs with a $50 deductible. And yes they cover theft, spills, fire, and vandalism. So take a look at their options for your high tech gear to give you a piece of mind.

2010 Real estate tax benefit is no laughing matter

admin — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 03:05:24 +0000

If you are like thousands of homeowners you may be wondering does the extended tax credit apply to me? I was able to look at a simple and easy to understand video on the subject and it really helped to clarify if I was eligible. Unfortunately since we just moved just over three years ago we do not qualify but there are thousands of home owners or first time home buyers who can take advantage of this tax credit while enjoying some of the best mortgage rates in over 40 years. The Real Estate Tax Benefit has two components that allow first time home buyers or those looking to upgrade their homes a chance to receive anywhere between $6500 to $8000 in tax credits. The key is that you must have a written contract in place by April 30, 2010 and closed on your home by June 30, 2010.
This video from Coldwell Banker gives you information to help you decide:

This economic stimulus can help the overall economy because it will get people to move sooner on buying a home and with that you have the added benefits of other industries realizing additional revenue. It is estimated that for most every home sold the local economy realizes an additional $60K in benefit. If you think about all the added items that you purchase such as landscaping materials, furniture, blinds, and even new electronics to put into your new home the added value of buying and selling a new home is great for the overall economy. So while this offer is coming to a close do not hesitate to talk to your real estate professional about how you can take advantage of this great government tax benefit.
