Shopping for Running Gear

Before this new year even started, I made a decision to get to work on some resolutions and goals.  I know that is not typically how it works, but I was mentally ready to get started so I did.  My goal is to become a runner.  This might seem silly to a lot of people.  I mean I never thought about running before.  I did not feel like I was missing out on...

Friends don’t let friends whip out their credit cards in front of the computer screen after they’ve knocked back a few Margaritas.  At least, maybe they shouldn’t.  That’s what the results of a recent survey of online shoppers in Great Britain discovered.  There seems to be a growing problem of people getting a little too tipsy and...

Avoid Buying Things You Don’t Need
