New Lights

Posted by Santi on June 3, 2013 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.

Accessories For Cigars Online

Posted by Santi on May 28, 2013 Comments Off

Thought of visiting my father for the longest time, considering I hadn’t seen him since I graduated from College a few years back. I kept catching life’s curve balls and had major financial problems hitting me every time I turned around, so it was very difficult to plan and afford the travel, plus rent while I was out of town visiting my dad.

After such a long time of saving every penny that I possible could, I could finally go! Knowing my fathers biggest habit of smoking cigars, I decided to search the net to find a gift I could bring or have sent to him, and came across a site that offers cigar accessories. I was so thrilled to find a site that offered great accessories at such decent prices. I found a few things that I thought he would absolutely like, and placed my online order in no time flat.

Not long after I had gotten a phone call from my dad, telling me he had a few packages on his doorstep, and was so excited. He waited for me to get there to open the boxes, and when I arrived, it didn’t take him a second longer after I had stepped into the door, to grab the boxes, along with his box cutters and open them with such excitement.

He was totally thrilled and seemed so happy to have his new cigar accessories, and both of us enjoyed our time together. I’m glad I could get him gifts that he actually uses time and time again. Since I won’t be there on Father’s Day, I was glad to see him and spend some good quality time, Mother Nature was on our side, which certainly helped.

Tarps To The Rescue

Posted by Santi on May 25, 2013 Comments Off

This weekend I was planning on taking a load of stuff to the local outside flea market that is still open since it hasn’t turned hot and humid. I have taken a good amount of time to gather up and sort a bunch of stuff, besides deciding on the price to ask and then tagging it all, and have the van loaded ready to go. So what really is upsetting is that the weatherman is telling us that there is a slight chance of rain coming our way. Not that I ever put any faith in what any weather person predicts, but it still makes me a bit uneasy.

I decided to go ahead and continue with my plans, but now I have to gather up some tarps to take along to protect everything in case it does rain. I’m afraid that I might only have those ugly blue tarps out back, I’d much prefer to have clear tarps so that people can still see what is on the tables and continue selling to the customers that still continue to shop even through rains. And I really don’t like the look of those blue tarps, never have, seen to many in the yards of trailer parks I guess.

Insulation, Energy, Assistance

Posted by Santi on May 15, 2013 Comments Off

So while the guys where at my folks the other day taking care of all of the door and window replacement issues that they have been dealing with as of late, they recommended that my folks check into having a full fledged home energy audit in new jersey to see what else they can do to help keep the cost of energy down at the old home stead. It doesn’t look like any type of energy prices are going to be going down any time soon and now is better than later to get as green as possible in any way that you can, especially in your own home.

There really is a lot of assistance with home repairs businesses and programs all over the country now a days. And considering how hot this summer looks like it will become, I just can’t imagine my parents sweating it out trying to conserve their electricity costs or sweating it out trying to figure out how to pay for that high cost. So now it looks like I’ve got to start looking for a company that does this type of work and some insulation assistance in the state of NJ to get lined up over the weekend.

Cheap Rental Cars for Summer Vacation

Posted by Santi on May 3, 2013 Comments Off

Its about time to start getting ready for summer vacation, and I couldn’t be more excited for it. A few friends of mine from back in high school and I have been talking a lot during the last winter and have been making plans to travel around and find the best place to let loose for the summer.
I have recently just bought a new car and am not too thrilled with the idea of taking it on the road for so long, and putting so many miles on it so soon. Luckily a rental car came to mind, but I had never rented a car before and had no idea where to start. My friend Harry, who is one of the few friends of mine who wants to come on our summer road trip, he has rented a few cars in his time before and gave me some pointers on how to find reliable and cheap rental cars.
I jumped on the computer with him the other night and had found a site that makes finding a cheap rental car as easy as one, two, three. I now have a nice ride to travel in and find the perfect summer getaway with all my good buddies. I can only imagine the experiences, and fun we will have. Needless to say I feel completely at ease knowing I have reliable transportation that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg, and completely stoked about all of the fun we will have together.
