Business Ink

Posted by Santi on January 6, 2012 Comments Off

In our business we print about 500 sheets a day, some days a bit less some days a bit more. In printing that many pages we use a lot of paper and ink. We had to find a better way to get in cartridges than buying them retail. What I found was InkJetDeals.info they have a wide variety of ink printer cartridges for sale and the prices are a lot lower than what I was paying retail. inkjet printer cartridges are not cheap I was paying around $60 each to buy new cartridges. The web site lists sites to buy your printer cartridges from saving up to 80% as a small businessman I can use the saved money to buy other supplies.

I use a HP printer ink cartridge in my business and I love the price on this web site it saves me around $20 per cartridge. I love my printer it is very dependable and the only down side is the expense of buying new ink about every 6 weeks.

InkJetDeals has information on all the major brands including HP, Dell, Brother and Lexmark and many more, check out their web site at inkjetdeals.info where you can get all the information about the kind of printer cartridge that your printer uses. With the high price of gas and other items rising right along side gasoline it is so very important to save money where we can and this site helps me save money every day.

Unique Address Plaques

Posted by Santi on January 6, 2012 Comments Off

I’ve noticed that there are a lot of nice custom address plaques being used on a lot more homes these days. I’ve been urged by my BFF to get a new mailbox as well as one of the personalized address plaques that are out on today’s market, since I live out here alone and this old mailbox has seen better days. It seems that it would make it easier for the emergency personnel to find the place if needed, the pizza and Chinese food delivery person would benefit from it as well!

Now since I’ve been looking around for a new address sign a bit online I’ve really been noticing the address signs that are being used by many of my neighbors and the folks in town as well. I’m surprised to see as many of the whitehall address plaques that I’ve been eyeballing on the Internet. Guess I didn’t pay that much attention to what people were using until I started looking for one. When I buy the one for my use I want it to be original and nothing even close to what I’ve been seeing around here, unique is what I’m looking for because I’m a unique type of person. LOL

Getting Her Done

Posted by Santi on December 13, 2011 Comments Off

Am thinking that I have just about got my Christmas presents under control for this year’s Christmas gift giving festivities that are less than 2 weeks away. This year I have not had to go to any store’s physical locations for any of the presents that I have purchased. I have used my laptop for the entire list 100%, and I couldn’t be happier. I just hope that all of my orders come in on time.

I’m still waiting on the jessica howard petite dresses for my very petite young niece as well as the hand sculptures for her mother, my eldest sister. Other than those two items and the large paper bags that I ordered to decorate and use to carry all the families loot home when all is over and done with and the place empties out late Christmas evening. The kids really enjoy decorating these bags for various family members to utilize, something that we have been doing for several years now, it has become kind of a tradition I suppose. We have always been an artsy crafty type of family so it is only fitting.

New Lights

Posted by Santi on December 9, 2011 Comments Off

In our delivery business we have one very significant problem, we deliver newspapers at night, so finding addresses that are not well marked is a huge problem. In some of the neighborhoods we deliver into this problem haunts us nightly.

After doing a bit of searching we have found a solution to our problem. Golight has a very nice spotlight. This great light is perfect for our business, and Larson Electronics has a huge selection from which to choose, including the “Go Light” that I want to purchase.

Check out the Larson Electronics web site at magnalight.com to see their complete selection of Magna Lights they have on hand, including the “Go Light” I have selected. They have everything from spot lights to flash lights and everything in between. The remote control spot lights are also very nice, and I am thinking about purchasing one of them in the near future.

In our business the inability to locate an address in the darkness of night can be very frustrating and this great light will help us to combat that. I love the fact that the black case color matches my Tahoe and will look very nice mounted on my truck. I think if you are looking to purchase spot lights for your fleet of vehicles, this web site can put you “into the light,” so to speak.

Van Insurance

Posted by Santi on December 8, 2011 Comments Off

With our business being a delivery service we use vans to do most of the hauling of the newspapers. Using vans can be a bit expensive including the cost of the vans and the fact that they use more gas than the smaller vehicles, but vans save us a lot in the fact that they haul more and for the most part vans are very dependable.

One variable that is common with all the vehicles we use is car insurance, no matter if it is a van or a car you need to have good insurance and finding good van insurance is not as easy as it sounds. Van Insurance can be very expensive if you do not find a good insurance carrier.

The Insurance company I use is the Auto Net Insurance Group, they have fantastic rates for work vans and their service is fantastic. We have had no problems since we began using them to insure our work vans and that is one huge relief off our minds.

One of the things that I love about this Insurance that if within forty eight hours if you find cheaper Insurance they will refund your money, a guarantee like that gives me peace of mind that I have the very best van insurance rates when I use Auto Net Insurance Group, and as high as prices are getting now every penny that we can save is so very important to our small company.
