R-Type Command PSP Price Drop - Still with Free Replica

I hopped over to Amazon yesterday and saw that the price of R-Type Command for PSP has dropped to $26.79 (new). And it still comes with the free ship replica! The free ship replica was originally listed when you pre-order R-Type Command for PSP at $39.99 as I mentioned before. From the reviews, it seems that this is not the shooter game which I had hoped for. It's more of a strategy game. The graphics look as awesome as before, not sure about the gameplay though. I'll keep monitoring the price drop and hope to snap the deal when it feels right.

Zenni Optical Glasses for June

My friend June asked me for a recommendation of an online store for her to changer her glasses. I know a few places and I also know that there are Incredible Stylish New Frames From Zenni this season. I am pleased to find lots of low priced great deals like single vision glasses starting at as low as $8, yeah it's the Zenni Optical $8 Rx Glasses. She mentioned she would like to choose glasses with free UV protection and anti scratch coating this time. She goes to the beach often for "natural tanning". She asked me if this store is realiable. I told her not to worry, Zenni Optical was on FOX news! A new pair of glasses, anyone?

P/S: The Secret to Zenni’s Low Prices is that they sell only their own manufactured frames direct to the customer, with no middlemen and virtually no advertising budget.

Top 10 Tips for Your Most Enjoyable Holiday Yet

Don't go on holiday without the Post Office Travel Checklist!
Top ten tips for your most enjoyable holiday yet:
1. Online check inChecking in online can save you loads of time at the airport. You can drop your luggage off in a designated area at the airport, or better still, just take hand luggage and start your holiday while everyone else is waiting for their bags!
2. Luggage loveDon't lose your luggage or walk off with someone else's. Get a really distinctive suitcase, or decorate yours with colourful straps and ribbons. If you don't want to put your address on your suitcase, just put a mobile number instead.
3. In flight essentials Your holiday experience begins on the flight. Take ear plugs, eye mask and travel pillow for sleeping on the plane, and socks and a jumper to keep warm.
4. First aid kitAs well as any prescription medicines, remember to pack paracetamol, plasters, insect repellent and dehydration sachets.
5. Spare juiceYou'll need batteries or the charger for your camera, MP3 player, laptop or handheld computer. Make sure they're charged up, take spares and a battery charger, and don't forget the right adapter for the country you're going to.
6. Extra eyesLose your glasses and sightseeing loses its edge. Take a spare pair with you, it's a requirement in some European countries if you're the designated driver. Contact lens wearers should go disposable. You won't have to worry about losing a lens or carry solution around with you.
7. The right suncreamTake suncream that's the right strength for your skin. Cancer Research recommends at least SPF15, higher for children, people with fair skin or lots of moles or freckles.
8. A pre booked parking spaceFor the ultimate in convenience, pre book a guaranteed parking space at the airport. A Meet and Greet service is ideal if you've got lots of luggage and/or kids.
9. ConnectionsDon't get stung when making calls, sending texts or using the Internet on holiday. Ask your network provider if your phone will work abroad and what the charges are. Remember that it can cost as much as £1 per minute even to receive calls abroad. It may work out cheaper to buy a local phone card when you are there or an international SIM card before you go.
10. Travel insuranceYour own travel insurance is essential, even if you have an EHIC card. It's your peace of mind in case your luggage gets lost, or someone in your family becomes ill. Post Office travel insurance policies start at just £5.50 for singe trip travel insurance, or - if you're going away more than twice this year - save money with an annual travel insurance policy, and kids go free!

JBL On Tour Portable Speaker System

The JBL On Tour Portable Speaker System is one of the items in my wishlist. However, I am not planning to swipe my credit card and pay for it. I'll make use of my existing Amazon.com gift certificates to redeem it for "free". I've been monitoring the price for a month or two. It has dropped from $39.99 to $39.19 to $38.80 now. This item would serve as a travel/portable speaker set for me since the Dell E1405's speakers are crappy and simply not loud enough. It'd be mainly reserved for watching movies/listening to music only. Reviews on Amazon seem to suggest that this might be worth it. I'll write a review of my own when I redeem this item.

Movies: The Bucket List (2007)

One movie which made it into my list of movies to watch earlier (last year). However, after watching it over the weekend, I couldn't figure out why it got into my list at the first place. A cast pair-up of Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman would normally present something big like a box office hit. Instead, I got an average movie. I expected more, honestly. It's about a story of the friendship that developed between 2 terminal cancer patients, all beginning in a hospital room. It all circles around the concept of a list called "The Bucket List" -- things to do before they kick the bucket (die). They did skydiving, drag racing and travelling to exotic places around the globe. Most importantly, the discovery of friendship what's important in life through the journey, through one another. Grab a copy of The Bucket List from Amazon and watch it if you want.

1 Can of Sweet Fleshy Longans

You can never go wrong in paying a couple of more dimes for a can on longans. You get sweet fleshy longans. Firm and tight. (no please do not compare the idea to your girlfriend's butt). Cheaper brands contain longans which are half sweet and lacking firmness. I bought the cheapo version a week ago and boy did I regret that. This week's longans are fleshy and round and firm. Just the way it's supposed to me. Watch out on the sugar water. Don't take too much of it. It's for our own good.

Needing Computer RAM Upgrade

I hate slow computers. It frustrates me when it's taking ages to load something on my computer and the RAM LED is blinking non-stop. This happens everywhere. At home, at the library, and especially at my work place. There's no doubt I am seriously thinking about Adding Computer RAM everyday I use that HP machine for work. It's a simple task everyone can perform. Just buy the correct RAM upgrade and stick it into the slot on your motherboard and see the boost your computer just received.

RAM prices are dropping as they reach for bigger capacity and greater speed. Sources like MemoryDeal provides the listing of the different types of RAM and their respective prices for your convenience. As they say, "Adding extra memory is today the simplest and most cost-effective way of upgrading one computer." I know there are some of you Apple fans reading this. Don't worry, just hit up Add IMAC Memory for your beloved yester-generation's iMac.

That PC underneath my desk is from a few years back, and a few years back means it's pretty left behind in terms of speed with respect to today's technological wonder. Its motherboard supports the older (and slower) type of RAM. Looks like I'll have to look in the DDR PC2700 Memory category. Since the company is forever on a tight budget, I bet they wouldn't fork out some serious cash for a new computer unless I break mine.

StumbleUdon Closed Down

I was surprised to find out that StumbleUdon was closed down. StumbleUdon was a website where one could get free Stumbles to their website/blog. It's unfortunate that the project has to be suspended. Something must have caught up on them. StumbleUdon, sayonara~!

Looks like they recommended PiggUs now!

Online Marketing via Network Solutions

Let's start with a quick simple fact. About 71% of consumers start their Internet visit at a search engine. So theoretically, there's a lot of potential for online marketing right from the very start point of many Internet users. The digital age has long established itself in the World Wide Web arena, especially in developing countries in North America, Asia and also in the Europe. Small businesses would target for online website promotion to enhance their business exposure and opportunities.

Pay Per Click (PPC) advertising is the usual most effective solution for web marketing starting from serach engine results. Choosing a suitable package of pay per click program is a good start to improving business traffic and potential. Network Solutions provides 2 outstanding performance clicks packages for customers to choose from. The first is a pre-packaged starter plan which has a more common mix of features starting from $125/month with 50 guaranteed clicks/month.

However, I would recommend the fully managed custom plan which I feel would give the best return in terms of amount "invested". It is maximised for delivering qualified leads which are what one from the small business category would be looking for. Daily ad campaign management by a dedicated search expert is definitely an added adavantage. Network Solutions will do the keyword research, Web site analysis, ad copy creation, keyword buys, and campaign reporting for you. Just sit back and watch your website gets more attention.
