Stay Connected

Aside from the internet, the television has been my source of quick information . I can read news at the newspaper, but its different when you see the action in TV. This is the reason why my husband decided to get Direct TV. We only not watch the local news, but even some international ones. Then my kids also has a wide choice when it comes to kiddie shows. We are not restricted anymore with the few channels a regular one can offer.

Truly , no regrets in getting a Directv for our family. I actually recommended it to my parents and cousins. Now we are all enjoying its great features at such a good cost. Did you know that you dont have to worry about your Direct TV service even if you transfer state? My mom asked about Direct TV in CA and she was given enough information on how she can continue the service without the hassle. Great deal!

"Allergy wise " mattress pad



Settle in for a peaceful, sneeze-free night's rest with Martha Stewart Collection's Allergy Wise mattress pad. Crafted of pure 300 thread count cotton, this mattress pad features antimicrobial fill for serious protection against allergens. Quilted box-top construction adds an extra layer of softness to your bed (Source : Macys.com)

I think this is what i really need.

my kids and i are so prone to allergies , like dust ,and even if we are in bed , we would still sneeze if an allergen gets near our nose. This sneezing can lead to asthma, you know !

Kiddie Beds

Being a mom of a toddler and an infant, i can say that most of my shopping loots are for them . I usually buy them clothes , toys and shoes during SALE and I feel happy with that. Call that a mother's simple joy. Last week, we have decided to fix the room of my boy , so we went to a furniture shop to look for Kids Beds . It was heaven for us , especially for my little boy because we brought him along so he can choose his first bed. We wanted something that can maximize the space that we have so I am considering this



The small cabinets / shelves can be used for his toys and gifts. I have seen this type of design in a Childrens Beds display at the mall. My son likes it too because its in blue and he likes the shelf too. But still we went around the store and found really nice Novelty Beds . The designs can't just escape our attention , so we went and checked. We asked our son what he likes and he pointed to this

This is perfect because he likes blue cars. The little shelf on the headboard can be used for some of his fave toys too . I cant wait for this to be delivered soon.

I want it in gold

Do you know where to buy gold - Not jewelries, but the bullions? Well, its not for me , but for someone i know and is asking for help. This is the current investment that he would like to have now , to buy gold bullion. I asked him why, and he said that gold still has a high value in the market , it rarely depreciates even in critical times. Now i am thinking of investing too. Instead of shopping with some stuff that i dont really need ( i buy most of the times because its on sale) , i can start buying a gold bullion, maybe one piece at a time?

During this tough economic crisis that the world is experiencing, people should really think on how they can earn extra or make their money earn in their own ways. Gold is one of the answers , buy and see its value in a short time. Its properties as a metal is so prominent that it can really withstand time. I will let you know if I already got myself a bullion , i'll provide some feedback soon.

Lights and Decors

I always knew that these two would really go together. Last weekend we were at the mall looking for some Indoor Light Fixtures for our newly renovated guest room. We want to finish everything for that room in a month in time for my parents arrival here for vacation. We got Desk Lamps already and we got something simple and classic. I chose color white so the lamp would complement whatever room paint we may have. I got so attracted with so many display Lamps including Kiddie Lamps.


Hopefully everything will be done in our little renovation here at home. Im writing down what i still need to buy in a few weeks time and Home Furnishings and Decor tops my list. The July 4 sale would really be a right timing. I might score some real bargains with the decors. I will check on Shopwiki later , i am definite , i would find something that im looking for there.
