Interest Rate Cuts Mean Metal Prices Are Rising Again
Posted on December 10, 2007 - Filed Under Personal Finance | Leave a Comment
The Federal reserve is expected to cut interest rates by 1/4% again tomorrow morning. This will be the third time The Fed has cut the interest rate this year causing more inflation in their attempts to further manipulate the supposedly free market in America. Last week the Bank of England also cut their interest rate. All these rate cuts are contributing to the weakening power of the dollar, but they could be good for you. That is, if you have…

Posted on November 27, 2007 - Filed Under Shopping | Leave a Comment
I never expected to see such a great offer from PayPal, but it seems foolish not to take advantage of it. Through Monday, December 10th they’re offering a full 20% rebate (deposited to your PayPal account) for shopping with some major online retailers. We’re not talking about little no-name sites, but the big boys like Barnes & Noble, HP, eBags
, and RitzCamera.com
. Here’s the most important small print-
1. Offer Description: Eligible customers defined in Section 3 below will receive 20% cash…
Smallest Room Gets A Bit Smaller… Again
Posted on November 20, 2007 - Filed Under Aahz | Leave a Comment
Y’all may recall my recent rant/how-to on saving money in the bathroom. Well, the smallest room in the house got a little smaller today as my roommate added not one, but two makeup mirrors. Apparently, this will allow him to not only shave closer, but to trim his own hair in the back. When I pointed out that he could do the same thing by simply leaning forward, opening the side-mounted medicine cabinet mirror at an angle and using the…
The Market Relieves Bathroom Blues
Posted on November 19, 2007 - Filed Under Health Care | Leave a Comment
One of my clients / roommates is disabled in such a way that he can’t use the toilet without assistance. With physical therapy he has gotten to the point where he can get on and off without trouble, but still needs help in cleaning. We petitioned his health insurance provider and my employers about getting him a bidet or similar device, but they decided that since I’m here to help him it’s not a “medical necessity”. Well, it’s a dignity…
New York City Here We Come
Posted on November 9, 2007 - Filed Under Travel | Leave a Comment
I wrote earlier in the month that Z and I had canceled our 2008 road trip in order to ride The Cyclone at Coney Island in its last year of existence instead. Since we’ll be going all the way to New York, it only made sense to see some of the sights there as well, so I’ve been doing a little online New York tourism of late. Yesterday I discovered New York CityPass and assumed this would be perfect for us.…
A Bathroom Full Of Cash - Top 5 Tips For Saving

Part of the Friday Frugality Series - Previous in series Next in series
In cleaning out the bathroom today I suddenly realized how much more money my roommate throws down the figurative drain in the bathroom then I do. He’s got 3/4 of the medicine cabinet filled with various products, and the entire shelf in the shower as well. Meanwhile I have very little there as I’ve realized over the years just how much money gets poured into this…
