On the Counter at Lands End

I'm not sure what "on the counter" is supposed to mean. But the deals are great. I got some great outfits for my 21 month old for $1-$3! And there are some nice women's clothes too. But the menswear seems to sell out before the prices drop low enough to be super exciting.

I really like the quality of Lands End, and in the rare case that a return/exchange is necessary it's convenient+free to return at Sears.

Top quality jewelry online, and a great price too!

Check out the incredible selection of Tahitian Pearl Jewelry at this awesome online jeweler. The prices are wholesale direct to the public, the jewelry is gorgeous, and the quality top-notch. There are some really nice, unique styles. I really like those necklaces with gold beads and pearls - super creative yet totally wearable!

Pizzacato Pizza

We had some great NY style pizza at Pizzacato Pizza in Encinitas. It's definitely not the lowest-priced pie in town, but the quality is top notch!

Stock Monkey

I decided to be bold and jump back in the market early this morning. I bought shares in Corning Glass @11.70. I love the p/e of 3.5, and they make lots of things essential to various tech sectors. I have to admit I'm way too busy to do in=depth research, but the diverse range of products in essential emerging technologies seems like a winner. Hopefully it will prove to be a bargain buy!

Tough Economic Times Call for Smart Shopping

Welcome to my blog!

Well, it sure seems that tough economic times are upon us. So it seems to me that we need to be smart about spending money. I, for one, still want great quality products. But now, more than ever, I'm interested in finding bargains. Quality and Value - that's what I'm all about right now. So I've decided to blog about the great values I find, and encourage anyone out there to contribute.

Good luck to everyone!
