Library = Brilliant FREE Sources for Entertainment


Do you remember the last time that you walked into a library? A lot of us have not seen the inside of one since we worked on our last school paper! During these harsh economic times, it is becoming a popular hangout- for multiple reasons.

The following is a list of services available at most libraries today, typically for FREE, but at times for a minimal nominal fee (i.e. $1 or $2):
  1. Read books, magazines and newspapers, especially when you are trying to get a copy of an older book that has been out of print for some time.
  2. Internet access to check your email, job hunt or simply browse the internet.
  3. Day passes to local attractions such as zoos, aquariums, museums, etc.
  4. Check out media materials like audio books and DVD's.
  5. Kid activities like storytelling and arts and crafts.
  6. Reading clubs where you can meet people whom you share similar interests with.
  7. Seminars in home buying or purchase of electronics (i.e. television, appliance). 
  8. Health screenings like blood pressure, and programs about weight loss and exercise.
  9. Review the many job postings employers place at the libraries.
  10. Workshops like resume writing, computer training and job fairs.
  11. Play chess, backgammon or put a puzzle together.
  12. Print documents, resumes or directions.
If you enjoy peace and quiet, or simply want to get away from a noisy house and relax, the library is a great alternate solution.

Please do not forget to speak with your librarian about any ideas or suggestions that you may have as they consider guests their customers, and want to help.

    Internet Shopping- The Smart Way!


    With the holidays around the corner, you could easily go over your new budget- but you don't have to! Stay on track and enjoy the holidays with your loved ones thanks to the miracles of internet shopping. It does not only simplify life (no more standing in long lines!), it also allows us for us to stick to our budgets easier (i.e. if you see that your order total is higher than what you can afford, you can easily delete or substitute items); most importantly, it allows you to search for additional savings.

    Whether you are looking to buy a new outfit, a gift card, or even dancing lessons; do not forget to visit my top sites to search for your discount codes before placing that order!
     Happy savings!
