Color Printer

We needed a printer not just to print our daily report but also print movie covers or even game covers for the store when someone brings in a copy and had lost the original box.  How they managed to do that – I don’t know but there are many a times – the cover comes back destroy – so when we decided to get a new color printer – we wanted something that prints not only good pictures but also easy on the  toner cartridges as they are not cheap.  But these days – one can get color printer at good prices – now it’s the toner cartridges that you have to consider – where to buy and how much a toner cartridge can last you.   We buy our toner cartridges from our friendly local store that we can count on – with a good price and friendly staff and they are very knowledgeable as well.

We were recommended the Brother MFC 990CW – the last time we bought our color printer and loved it to bits.  This printer not only prints good color pictures – it scans, copy, does our faxing and has a storage capability that uses a USB flash drive.  What i like best is its LCD screen – making us look so advance and techie looking – our customers who comes into our store usually gawk at the LCD screen – hahahha!  We use the wireless handset – and double up the fax machine as a phone – when our phone line is busy and it has a bluetooth that one can use too.  We paid like $250 for this machine – so you can see why we are raving about it – the toner lasted us for a long time too – so we are pretty happy with our color printer/scanner/copier/fax machine.

I saw the HTC Touch at our local phone shop and was pretty intrigue with it.   Getting it from Rogers practically cost me no up front money at all.  But do I want to go into contract with for a phone but it’s not just a phone – I can hear you telling me. I’ll check it out again and let you know what i find out about this phone.

A Cashmere For Your iPhone or Ipod

Now isn’t this cute!  handmade from Etsy – at for $11 – I love the color and so will the girlfriends and wives if they have an iPod or an iPhone – great gift!

I also like this one for the daughters and the nieces and maybe a co-worker – lady of course.  I wonder if she will sew an initial on it for me?
