Get your AC ready for summer (for less) with Schaible’s

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

I’ve posted before about how it’s completely the opposite of fun to have a broken A/C unit in the summer. The cozy house becomes an oven when the temp heats up and there’s no relief available. Now summer is around the corner, and it’s time to ask yourself: Is your A/C ready? If you don’t know the answer, and you live in the NJ/PA area, get Schaible’s Plumbing and Heating on your side.

Schaible’s has been around for decades, doing great plumbing and heating/AC installation and repairs for the local residents. Right now, they’re inviting customers to take advantage of federal tax rebates on energy-efficient A/C units – if you haven’t upgraded your air conditioner in a while or don’t think yours will last the summer (believe me, it happens), NOW is definitely the time to upgrade! Schaible’s is sweetening the deal still further by offering $300 discounts on top of the available tax rebates for anyone who upgrades to energy-efficiency. Get a great new unit, save money now AND in the long term, and stay cool all summer long! Sounds like the perfect deal.

Fill out the form below to get more info on upgrading your A/C unit and getting tax rebates AND $300 off for your efforts! Schaible’s Plumbing and Heating has your climate-control needs covered this summer, and all year long.

Chatman is the buddy that takes your chatting into the future

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010

Do you and your kids enjoy chatting with friends online? Most of us do. My kids have grown up with the Internet, and they spend a lot of time communicating via the web. Now, there’s a clever new gadget (available in the U.K.) that makes chatting even better: Chatman!

Chatman is the little yellow fellow you see here. He can be useful in chats with friends, or when we’re alone on the computer. He’s compatible with all the major chatting platforms, and when your friends write something to you, he can read what they say and even comment on the message from his own point of view!

No friends online? No problem! You can just chat with Chatman. He’ll tell you how he feels about whatever you tell him. He’s got 3 personality options, so you can choose what fits you best; his more than 500 actions and dozens of customisable moods mean Chatman can keep you and the kids entertained and engaged for a long time. You can even help mold his personality by creating “Chit Chats” and adding them to his bank of responses. You’ll be surprised at his understanding of language, context and mood!

Chatman is artificial intelligence that’s social, perfect for this era of social networking and online communities. And best of all, he’s here now! Fill out the form below if you want to be among the first to own a Chatman in the U.K. Get Chatman for your kids (and yourself) and have this buddy by your side while you chat!

Cedar Grove Family Resort makes me want to get away from it all

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

Summer is coming, and if you’re anything like me, you want – no, NEED – a vacation. You need to pack a bag, put the kids (and maybe pets) in the car, and go someplace relaxing. But of course, that place has to have plenty to do so that those kids and pets don’t get bored. It’s sometimes tougher than it seems to come up with a suitable vacation destination for the whole family, but I just found out about a great one: Cedar Grove Family Resort in Ontario, Canada.

Cedar Grove is a resort made up of charming family cottages on the shores of a 350-acre lake. And from May 1 to October 31, the area is hopping with summer fun! Fishing, water craft rentals, swimming, campfires, hiking through nature preserves, shopping and dining in the local area… There’s more to do here than you expect, and you probably won’t find the time to do it all! And yes, you can bring the pets – the WHOLE family can enjoy this vacation destination.

As if a fun-filled (but also relaxing and scenic) getaway to Canada isn’t sweet enough, they’ve got special deals going on right now. If you book your weeklong summer vacation before June 15, 2010, they’re giving you a $200 coupon redeemable at the resort and nearby attractions during your stay, AND they’re entering you to win a free week’s stay during the fall season! Two great incentives to plan the family trip to a great lakeside spot this year. Make your destination the Cedar Grove Family Resort, and you’ll be in summer bliss in no time!

The Medicine Man wants to help you get your weed legally

Monday, April 12th, 2010

Where I live, marijuana is still illegal. Not quite as illegal as it used to be (possession of less than 2 ounces is now a ticket, not an arrest), but still, illegal. In some places, though, the use of medicinal marijuana is both legal and encouraged. After all, no one can argue the fact that this particular drug has beneficial properties for those suffering from glaucoma, cancer, chronic pain, HIV and other conditions.

In Colorado, Amendment 20 passed in 2000, allowing for a system of legally growing and distributing medical marijuana. To qualify to obtain this legal weed, though, there’s a process that must be followed. For starters, a doctor has to determine that you need it for your condition. Then you must apply for an ID card that indicates you can have the marijuana legally. Last, you must find a “Caregiver” who grows the plant on your behalf (up to 50 plants, depending on your condition), and you can purchase it from him or her.

The Medicine Man is one such Caregiver, a Denver-area business dedicated to growing low-cost, high-grade medical marijuana for those in need. Right now, the Medicine Man is offering to help people get their doctor’s evaluation FREE of charge. That’s right… Depending on your needs, the Medicine Man might pay for your doctor’s visit (up to $120) and in some cases, even your application fee ($90) to get your medicinal marijuana. If you’re in the Denver area, you can apply for these free offers by filling out the form below. Once you’ve got your ID card, you can visit the Medicine Man for all your medicinal marijuana needs. Apply below to get started!

Atlantic Motosports – Because it takes a little work to ride like the wind

Monday, April 12th, 2010

My husband is what I like to call a “motorcycle enthusiast.” He likes sportbikes: the shiny, sleek motorcycles that race through turns and scream coolness to the world. And he doesn’t just like to ride; he also likes to do his own maintenance (that’s him on the left there, working on his Kawasaki). I think he might get as much enjoyment out of working on the bikes as he does riding them! I admit, I even enjoy helping him with the repairs; I’m awesome at sanding fairings, as it turns out.

In the Jacksonville area, a great place for him (and you) to find motorcycle parts, tools and fluids is Atlantic Motosports in Atlantic Beach. They have everything you need to work on your bike, and they even have bikes for sale if you’re looking to change your ride. Need gear? They’ve got that, too; trust me when I say that chicks dig guys who wear protective gear!

If you’d rather trust your bike’s maintenance to the experts, Atlantic Motosports has those experts on hand. They can get your bike service done and get you back on two wheels in no time! You can even get 10% off service by filling out the form below. No matter what you ride (Ducati, Aprilia, Triumph, BMW, KTM or one of the other known bike brands), they can handle it. Get to Atlantic Motosports in Atlantic Beach today and get your motorcycle ready for riding weather!

I have a friend who loves Thai food. I mean, he LOVES Thai food. Anytime we go out for lunch, he suggests – what else? – Thai food.

Buddha’s Belly, located at 301 10th Ave N, has a menu that features a wide variety of Thai dishes. They have appetizers, salads, soups, entrees – all made with fresh ingredients and traditional Thai preparation. Several of my coworkers have already eaten at Buddha’s Belly, and they’ve come back with blissful smiles on their faces. I haven’t been there yet, but the next chance I get, I’ll be diving into the Pad Thai!

Right now, Buddha’s Belly has even more incentive for new customers to visit: a FREE alcoholic beverage! Yep, guests ages 21 and up can download a coupon for a free draft beer, well liquor or glass of house wine. Just fill out the form below to get your coupon, and then get to Buddha’s Belly for great Thai at the beach!

Online golfing at its best – Get your golf swing on at World Golf Tour!

Monday, April 5th, 2010

When I was a teenager, golf was the “family sport.” I took lessons, I wore golf shoes, and I would go hit balls at the driving range for hours. And I didn’t enjoy it. I simply did not like playing golf, and it wasn’t just because I was bad at it. Golf for me, as they say, ruined a perfectly good walk outdoors.

I did, however, enjoy video games. What teenager doesn’t? And while I never have picked up a golf club again, my enjoyment of video games continues to this day.

Which is why I’m having so much fun with World Golf Tour! It’s the best way to play golf without actually PLAYING golf. World Golf Tour is the online, HD golf game that lets you play gorgeous courses, refine your swing and challenge your friends to a round or two, all without setting foot in a pro shop. (The screen shot to the right is one from my last game, by the way… That’s my avatar, playing Edgewood Tahoe).

What’s especially fun about it is that people who LIKE golf have just as much fun playing it as I do! My golf-loving family members can enjoy a sunny day on a real golf course and then spend the evening playing World Golf Tour. We can play together and tackle courses like Edgewood Tahoe, Bali Hai in Las Vegas, or even St. Andrews in Scotland, and we don’t need anything more than a computer and an Internet connection (which, if you’re reading this, you probably have, too!).

Want to try your hand at a World Golf Tour tournament or play a few holes at Pinehurst? Right now, you can join and start playing at World Golf Tour for FREE! Seriously, free… I signed up myself and have been playing all afternoon, without spending a dime. If you’re ready to get started, fill out the form below… The followup emails will tell you how to get your free account set up with the username and password you’ve chosen.

Maybe you love golf, maybe you don’t… Either way, World Golf Tour is the game you’ll enjoy!
