I saved over $283 and not buying car insurance

I am already loving working at ShopNBC. Everything that is seen on TV can’t be sold to customers, since it has been “used” on TV. There for they have an “ebay” style auctions for employees to bid on items. I had known about the auctions since my first week but didn’t really have the money to buy anything so I just didn’t look. Tonight I had a little extra money and I looked and bought.

First a Grand Suites 300TC Silk & Cotton Jacquard Seven-Piece Duvet & Sheet Set which is normally $197.00, I got it for . . . $18.75. That’s right! I can’t wait to get some nice sheet sets. ๐Ÿ™‚ I got a Suzanne Somers Coral-Colored Rose Ring for Caroline as a Christmas gift normally $54.00, I got it for . . . $5.00. Then I got another Dream Oaks 600TC Egyptian Cotton Basketweave Embroidered Six-Piece Sheet Set for our bed. Normally cost $71.00, I paid $15.00. I spent a total of $38.75 I saved a total of $283.25. Can you believe that?

I think I am going to hit up the auction site a few more times before now and Christmas. If I can get all my gifts there. I can save a ton and get some really nice things for everyone. This job may save my ass this holiday.

Who needs black Friday when I can have black Friday every Friday? lol ๐Ÿ˜€ I really do like my job.

A way of life

I love web design. I love anything and everything to do with it. I design for hours, just to not use the design, all because I love to code. I dream in CSS sometimes. I can read it for hours. Learning new stuff to do or I look at someone else’s design and try to re-create it. I feel like such a geek and that I am the only one that does this. Am I crazy? Most likely. Is it something I have been doing for over or right at 10 years now, yes. I love it all. I don’t know what I would be doing with myself if I wasn’t doing web design.
