Bringing Back Some Childhood Fun

When we were kids – we didn’t have much to play with – because we were quite poor – but we always had a yo yo to bring to school and learned all sorts of tricks and had hours of fun with it.  I remember having made good friends with my yo-yo and my yo-yo kept me company and the more tricks I learned to do with my yo-yo – the more impressive I got with my little friends and it also taught me focus and how practice makes perfect.

This year, my daughter who is 8 years old had been asking for a better yo-yo to play with – and learn tricks on.  So I’m going to get one for her and bring some good old childhood memories – and create some good memories with my kid.

Saving Money With Techy Chick

We’ve always known that LED lights are a lot cheaper in the long run and this year – we’ve changed every light at the store to LED lights.  Even the flashing lights on the display windows had been changed to LED bulbs – so we are not worried that the flashing lights are turned on 24hrs a day.  Now that LED lights and bulbs has come down so much in prices – it would only be smart to change everything over to LED lights not only for money reasons but for safety ones.  Don’t know where to get LED lights/bulbs?  try  this place led from ledsupply.com for they have lots to choose from. Saving more and safety first – now that is a really smart move we’ve made and I’m not regretting it thus far.  We will be changing to LED at home too – I feel that it’s a must.

Geeky People Loves Unique Things

If there is anyone who loved funny t shirts it has got to be all the geeky friends that I know and work along with everyday.  They really enjoy a good laugh and have a huge sense of humor and you’ve got to love some of the funny and awesome quotes on the funny t-shirts.  Most of the time when I do buy funny t-shirts they are not for myself – they are usually for my friends and one of the above – I know that I can definitely give to a lot of my friends who dates the most horrid people but instead of giving it to them in their faces – I just give them a funny t-shirt and hope they get the hint.   I also loved to make custom t-shirts for some of my friends too – and I get all these ideas online and order them online.  But for those out there who wants to give their friends some funny or unique t-shirts – you should because it’s way too funny and they remember you everytime they wear the t-shirt.

Valentine’s Gift For A Geeky Girlfriend

This techy chick was asked by another geeky friend what he should get his girlfriend for Valentine’s Day  – and since his girlfriend is very much like himself and would already buy all the games and any kind of accessories for the computer already – he is lost.   I told him that even though his girlfriend might be as geeky as him and not like flowers -  no one can resist a box of chocolate roses – my best  Girlfriend Gifts suggestion.   So for those whose girlfriend is not into the girly stuff – try this chocolate roses because everyone loves chocolate – and chocolate plus roses – perfect gift.

Digital Price Tagging

Digital pricing tags may not be popular here yet but in Singapore and other parts of the world – like South Africa – already started digital price tags.  Japan had digital price tags since 2006 – and some parts of USA has digital price tags.  So what are the pros and cons of digital price tagging?

I say it makes everything easier for the night shift fellas -  who needs to take stock and re – price everything if they needed to go on sale or not on sale.  The cons – would be – the hacking part into the store  – I haven’t heard of any yet – but we’ll have to see eh.  So how much is changing everything into digital price tagging?   I figured it must be a lot – but no one had reported the cost as of yet – but small businesses like ours – I doubt you will see digital price tagging anytime soon.  Even Walmart may not go digital price tagging – since they won’t even chipped their debit and credit card machine.

Phone Cases

Like all new cellphone owners – we always loved to dress up our cellphones – some loved to bling them – but I just buy phone cases for them.  So I went out and paid like $30 for my Blackberry phone case – for my new blackberry torch only to find out that it doesn’t fit my cellphone.   My cellphone is a Blackberry Torch 9800 smartphone – while this case is for a 8500 series !  darn!  oh well – at least I can still use my cellphone without the case – but I’m hurting down some phone case again and there are a few places I can get them at the local mall.  I’m also thinking of getting some bling for my new blackberry – but I figured if i do it – it would be impossible to upgrade to another model but I do love some bling.

So even though I’m never a girly girl – I might shock everyone and get some bling bling.

I Want A Scooter

I am determined to get a scooter this spring – since I don’t want to drive.  I figured it shouldn’t be difficult to maneuver a scooter right?   And I want a swanky looking one too.

But my daughter had other ideas – because she wants to go riding with me – but she was scared just to sit behind me.  So we figured maybe if i had a scooter than had a side car – she wouldn’t be too afraid – and she wanted it pink – I think I can lived with it.

This custom made scooter is fantabulous!  I want to get something like that.

And of course, some Hello Kitty stickers like the one above – now that would be perfect but I know for sure the spouse would never ride in that – hahahah!
