Every time I turn on the television I see a commercial about a new type of acne treatment. I’ve learned that dealing with your face is just like dealing with your hair. You have to be careful what you put on it. Too many chemicals could do a lot of wrong to your skin and at the same time everyone’s skin is different. The best thing to do is try it. What works for you may not work for the next person but you will never know what works until you try it out!

I’m big on saving money but the other day I got depressed…I mean really depressed and I was in the mall. So I did some spending. I guess when you think about how much I’ve spent in the last few months it wasn’t a lot. I reactivated my Game Stop card and bought 2 games. The card is $15 but you save 10-30% on games. I also purchased 2 games for the Wii. I will be taking one back. Bust A Move was $17.99 and Dream Pinball was $24.99. I don’t like the pinball game so that is going back. Bust A Move isn’t too great either, but eh. I haven’t decided if I’m going to take that back yet. Bust A Move is $30 on Amazon so I guess that’s a deal. I’ll have to play it a little more to see if I really want to keep it. I do want a pinball game so I might be trading in the one I have for the other one that they have. It’s 17.99 so at least I’ll be saving some money. Decisions, decisions…

They also had a dancing with the stars game. That seemed cool. Elebits, but I don’t know much about that one either. I have a feeling that I’ll be buying a lot of games since I’ll be working right next to game stop. What a shame…

I feel like once you get a new place you start looking for new things. One day I want to get an HDTV and a stereo system. I know that I cannot afford that now. I feel like I can’t even afford to look or dream about one, but one day that will be a reality. When that day comes I will be looking at all of the discount electronics because I love saving money! Nothing makes me happier than getting something I’ve always wanted except saving money on that little something. Some people call it being cheap, I call it saving money for other things that I need!

When you think of coffee, you think of Starbucks. There are Starbucks locations EVERYWHERE in this city. There are 3 within walking distance from my apartment and 6 less than 10 minutes away if you are driving. That’s insane! I’m not a coffee fan, myself but I do love hot chocolate. Whenever I hang out at coffee shops I either order hot chocolate or strawberries and creme. If you’re a fan of Starbucks coffee but you aren’t lucky enough to be surrounded by them like I am then maybe you should consider ordering it online. You’ll be able to enjoy gourmet coffee right from your very own coffee pot!

Since I’m in my new place I’m trying to find nice lighting fixtures that’ll keep my apartment well lit. I know around here the apartments don’t come with light fixtures. There’s usually a wall light in the hallway, the dining area, the kitchen, the bathroom and the closet. Outside of that you need to get your own lights for your bedroom and living room. I want something that looks nice and is energy efficient.

There are a ton of police out there looking for cool police gear that they can wear on and off the job. A popular thing these days seem to be tactical pants. I didn’t know there were so many different type of pants, shirts, shoes, etc that you could buy specially made for police.

I am going to admit that I know nothing about wine. I also know that wine is an acquired taste. I’ve only had a bit of wine in my lifetime so I don’t know if it is something that I would enjoy drinking. Signing up for some of the wine of the month clubs that they have online might be a good idea. I’ll be able to try a new wine every month and catch up on all that I’ve been missing over the years.

When I was in high school I felt like I had pimples all over my face. It was hard to get rid of and I really didn’t know what to use. You can buy any type of pimple cream for any type of skin. What’s good about buying things these days is the amount of information that we have at our fingertips so we can research the products and figure out what the results will be before even trying it!

My friend is having a baby soon so I’m trying to find a good present to give her. I was thinking about getting a baby mobile because those seem cool but I’m not sure if that’s the best idea. I also don’t know what other people are going to give her. I’d hate for her to end up with 2 of the same things. Besides that I was looking into getting a strollers but that is also a common baby gift item. It’s also very useful. I can’t decide. I’m not sure what to do. I don’t want to end up spending a ton because I don’t have a lot but I want to give her something that she needs and the baby will enjoy.

I’m big on air purifiers. I have allergies and I also can’t stand to be in a place with dry air so I try to do everything to keep my air as clean as possible. Besides, who would want to breath in a bunch of wastes? Blueair offers air purifiers that you can buy online. All of the purifiers have great ratings and most of them come with free shipping. The prices start at $99 so if you are looking for a purifier that just may be the place for you.
