Editor's Tips 101: Vacations are in!

"The best thing about vacations is that you can take them at any time of the year. If it's cold, go somewhere warm. If it's warm travel somewhere cool. Visit another country or simply fly to another state. Either way, you're bound to get away from home. A change of scenery is definitely in need! To save on packages, try to plan your trip with a group of people to take advantage of the low cost per person prices and beneifits of group packages!"

Editor's Tips 101: There is a time and place for everything.

"Do you remember when your parent's told you that there was a time and place for everything? That statement has never been truer. When you have to work, you go to the office but when it's time to play there are tons and tons of places to go to release that pent up energy! Try to go an amusement park this summer for great family fun!"

Read a book:
Borders is one of my favorite places to find a book. When I am overwhelmed with life itself, I read. I escape into someone else's imagination while sitting in my favorite chair with a mug of hot chocolate or a bottle of water. Nothing is more soothing than peace and quiet. I don't even have to leave my house to get the book if I don't want to. Traffic just add's more stress. I go online, read a snippet of a book that I am interested in and order it. If you can't wait til' it arrives, get the pdf version too. You can start before the paper back even gets there. If you're worried about extra cost's then you may want to take advantage of the sales that are posted for Borders here at BigDeals101.com. They are very helpful.


Listen to Music:
fye.com is a great site to find all kinds of music. Classical, Country, Jazz, R&B, Grassroots and much more. You can currently save up to 50% off music and up to 40% off of TV on DVD. It's very relaxing to listen to your favorite artists or groups after a long day of work. Listen to something more uplifting for inspiration or encouragement or something more fun and upbeat to boost your mood.


Play Games:
Gamefly let's you pick your games online. They send it to you and you can enjoy the games for as long as you want with no late fee's. When you're done you just return the game by mailing it back and they will send you another game from your list. Great right? The best part is you can start or only $8.95 or try it for free! Playing game's are a great way to escape your hectic reality, at least for a little while.

Editor's Tips: Save on Electronics and Computer's

"You can't do much without electronics now-a-days but one thing you can do is save. Don't over pay because you're too excited about the new blackberry storm to go out and compare prices. You really don't have to rush out to get it when it's finally on the market. If you have a working phone, computer or other electronic, just wait a couple of month's until the price's drop and take advantage of the savings. I know we can sometimes feel like a kid on Christmas morning, but my job is to help you save money. If you can wait just a little while, you can have your new item at a cheaper price and save money as well.

Electronics:
CompUSA has great deals on digital camera's, camcorders, GPS', HD TVs, projector's, home theater's and mp3's. Everyone I know uses at least one of these item's so, I feel confidant that you will appreciate the deals on electronics at CompUSA as well.



Computer's:
Kmart has a wide variety of electronics and computer's. If you are simply looking for a laptop you can find one at Kmart for as low as $449.00. That's a good deal.
Software:
PC Connection/ MacConnection has an extensive category section listing everything from electronics, computers software and more.
