These are two new yogurt selections. One is M&Ms and the other chocolate chip. Similar to fruit-on-the-bottom, these are goodies-on-the-top. These will be great for the diet conscience. You can pretend to eat healthy by eating the topping first and then ditching the yogurt. Can a hot fudge yogurt be coming next?
This is the Mexican section of the cooler case at my local grocery store. I guess Mexicans must really like Jello.
These are heirloom tomatoes. I guess heirloom is another name for ugly. If my wife didn’t like the purple cauliflower, I am pretty sure she won’t like these. There is also a regular tomato for comparison.
Doctors now claim that looking down at your cell phone all day long is injuring your neck. I wonder if that also applies to looking down at books and paper work all day long?
When my cable TV quit working, I had to call into the cable company to get it fixed. And what do I get to listen to while on hold? Why, advertisements for programs that I could be watching if only my cable TV was working.
Invariably when I check into a motel/hotel room, the message waiting light on the telephone is flashing indicating that I have a voicemail message. But as usual, it is the hotel/motel welcoming me as their guest. And while this it a nice gesture on the part of the establishment, it is a real pain for me since I have to learn how to use the voicemail system in order to retrieve their welcome message. Of course, I could just ignore the light but what if it is a message of some import? In the end, I cave in and retrieve their message.
There is now an organic fertilizer called Dairy Doo. Isn’t that special.
A TV ad for an online buying program suggests that products can be purchased at a huge discount. They give examples of $800 flat screen TVs and $600 stand mixers being purchased for only a few dollars. And while this all sounds great, there is also a disclaimer at the bottom of the ad stating that these prices are not typical.
As it turns out, this is an on line auction site so if no one bids on an item, you could get a really good deal. But there is no guarantee of a low price. In fact, you could actually end up paying more for a product if you are not careful. Caveat Emptor.
In the Sunday paper recently I saw an ad for a Dell laptop. It was on sale on line for $50 off the regular price. But when I went to the link that was listed, it was not on sale. Rats! So, I went to the Best Buy web site to check their prices on that particular model. And while their prices were the same, I did discover an ASUS laptop that was comparable to the Dell but $50 dollars cheaper. So I went to Best Buy and purchased the ASUS. Thank you Dell for planting the seed to buy a new laptop.
Ever since the media showed pictures of Prince George in his bathrobe, there has been an immediate demand for the product. Unfortunately for George, he won’t make any money off of his endorsement.
