Product of the Month
March 2010
In an age of technology and innovation, new tech gadgets are being introduced to the public faster than a consumer is able to blink. With the new innovation of new tech gadgets, the power source of the gadgets is just as important as the tech gadget. Many of the new tech gadgets come with their own ac adapters and batteries while others require the consumer to purchase batteries at the checkout counter. Besides using a/c adapters, many of the tech gadgets allow consumers to use batteries with the gadgets thus making many of the gadgets portable. Usually, the different types of tech gadgets on the market in the stores often requires a consumer to purchase additional batteries for new tech gadgets once the original batteries life has expired. For instance; cell phones, lap tops, hand handle video games, and PDAs, all require batteries and each requires a different type of battery. Regardless of whether the type of batteries a consumer choose is generic or name brand, incontrovertibly, consumers use batteries for different types of tech gadgets, from digital cameras to portable Cd/tape cassette surround sound stereo systems. Normally, I use double A batteries or triple A batteries for my digital camera or TV remote control. Not surprisingly with all the new tech gadgets on the market in the stores, a consumer is able to purchase batteries at many of the local chain stores and grocery stores. In fact, most stores keep batteries near the front of the store close to the checkout counter as reminder to the consumer to purchase additional batteries for their new tech gadget. Eventually, the batteries in many of the new tech gadgets only last either a year and for some tech items the batteries only last a few months, therefore, it is a good idea to purchase additional batteries in case the tech gadget does not include batteries or it's a special type of battery only offered at the store or through the manufacturer. At some point in time, a consumer will have to replace the batteries in their new tech gadget. However, the consumer that doesn't want to continue to purchase batteries select stores sells batteries chargers. As a matter of fact, I purchase batteries throughout year, currently, as part of recycling; I keep a container for all of the batteries that have expired. Above all, besides following the instructions of the correct maintenance procedures required to keep the gadget working properly,as a saftey precaution,it is very important to keep batteries away from extreme heat and to dispose of batteries properly
Februay 2010
Not surprisingly ,over the years, the month of February has become synonymous for expressions of love and affection.February 14th, Valentines Day,an American tradition of giving cards,flowers,and chocolates to your special love one or friend, today still remains a favorite tradition among shoppers(consumers).Incontrovertibly, the month of February for many Americans holds a special meaning especially for young couples.Certainly,couples or single men and women celebrating a birthday, an anniversary, or a new relationship in the month of February get an extra dose of affection.Of course,the idea of sharing expressions of love is not just limited to young couples.At the same time,items commonly associated with the month is displayed regularly in stores circulars as well as advertised in television commercials. Visibly apparent to shoppers(consumers) during the month of February cues,signs and public displays of affection that slowly began to imbue the month with anticipation of gifts of love and affection for couples and singles both young and old.Indeed,it is because of the American tradition of giving choclate on Valentines Day that the product of the month for February is Ghirardelli Intense Dark Chocolate and the Ghirardelli Dark Raspberry.Although, Im fan and lover of Reeses Peanut Butter Cups, I chose instead,this month to try a different brand of chocolate.
Admittedly,the taste of both Ghirardelli Intense Dark Chocolate and the Ghirardelli Dark Raspberry is an acquired taste if you're not accustom to eating dark chocolate;however, I enjoyed both chocolate bars plus the packaging makes the bars a great gift to give to that special someone. Although, I do not purchase chocolate regulary other than a Reeses Peanut Butter Cup or Hersheys bar every now and then on the days that I designate for shopping.Nonetheless, this Valentines day I recommend that shoppers try a different kind chocolate other than what they normal purchase while out shopping in the local grocery store or chain store.Happy Valentines Day!!& many more from cacjohnson xxoolol.February is also the month of Black History and Go Red ForWomen.As a matter of fact,the entire month of February is dedicated to the achievements of African American men and women whose work assisted in furthering the Civil Rights Movement.
January 2010 (New Year)
During the month of January, I purchased three different brands of paper of towels. Throughout the years, I have often used paper towels for different applications,for example, I have used paper towels to wipe my car windows, to clean counter tops, and to wipe spills up off the the floor. Today, I still use paper towels for some of the same applications. However,as a safety precaution, I am careful not to place paper products, specifically, paper towels near the stove or flammable household products. Normally, I place paper towels in the kitchen as well as in the bathroom for quest to dry their hands. The three brands of paper towels I tested last month was the 7evelen brand,Bounty,and Viva. While testing the paper towels.Ultimately, I discovered that the Bounty and Viva paper towels absorbed and held more water than the 7evelen brand. First, I put the Bounty and Viva paper towels to test in the kitchen. I used both paper towels to dry dishes, to wipe the kitchen counter top.Second, I used the paper towels in the bathroom to dry my hands. In my final analysis, I prefer the Bounty paper towels to clean counter tops and dry dishes.Unequivocally, I would recommend the Viva paper towels for use in the bathroom for guest to dry their hands,primarily because the of its softness plus the Viva paper towels includes a moisturizer that doesn't leave your hands feeling dry. On the contrary, the 7evelen paper towels lacks of moisture making extremely flammable. Therefore, I would recommend the 7 evelen paper towels in combination with windex to clean car windows or bathroom mirrors.Veritably, I use paper towels for different things but I mainly use paper towels to clean counter tops, pick up spills and to dry my hands.

For the month of December 2008,I decided to bring in the New Year with some things new and others items rediscovered.
For instance, I rediscovered my Gevalia coffee maker that was free with my one year delivery service fromGevalia Coffee Makers who also sale baked goods,coffee mugs,and decortaive items specifically for kitchen cabinets.In addition to rediscovering my Gevalia Coffee maker, I bought an interior design frame and lamp at Family Dollar along with some other items ,to bring in the New Year,my total purchase was twenty-five dollars;however,with a Family Dollar in store coupon that stated if a customer purchases twenty-five dollars or more the store will take off $5.00;thus, my total bill was only twenty dollars.Other items I purchased for a dollar at the local Dollar Tree Store included Cucumber Melon shower gel & Cucumber Melon body oil.
November 2008
The Polaroid 7.0Mp is the product of the month for November.ThePolaroid 7.0MP,believe it or not but it ,astonishingly, covers the Holidays,Halloween,Thanksgiving,&Christmas.I recommendthePolariod 7.0MP foryour festive holiday pictures of family and friends it's inexpensive,a great excuse to dress up and spend time with family and friends.I bought the Polaroid 7.0MP at local Rite Aid store using an in store rebate. The Polariod 7.0MPcamera cost less than one hundred dollars. I really enjoy having a digital camera because it does so many things,it's more than a camera, it's video recorder, stores over thousand pictures with an SD disk,also allows the owner to add voice tags plus the Polaroid 7.0 is compatible with most computers.
October's 2008 product of the month is Walgreens photo CDs'.Walgreens offer their customers the choice of having their original prints or digital prints transferred to CDs' at a low cost of $2.99 per CD. In addition to transferring prints to CDs, Walgreens official web site offers their customers free online service to create free digital albums,create memory books(edit,size,cut,paste&frame)photos,plus,customers have the choice of making E-cards and sending photos to family and friends.
On my return visit to Radio Shack , I discovered the Slash offered by Virgin Mobile. The Slash is a camera phone that includes web access, e-mail, voice mail, text messaging,also holds up to 500 names &addresses.The screen is a little larger than the Flare. The Slash allows the customer to create their own wallpaper& screensavers by logging into Virgin Mobile Usa customers can check their account.
I bought this Virgin Mobile Flare Cell Phone from Radio Shack, although, it was not the cell phone I had orgininally planned to buy, it was a good substitute while searching for an appropriate multitask cell phone.However,I will continue to look for a cell phone that will accomodate my future business expansion and caches.The Virgin Mobile Flare provided voice mail, web access, email, and virgin mobile alerts.
I use Kodak Power Flash to take pictures of my 1985 Toyota Corolla LE. I would strongly recommend Kodak Power Flash for outdoors events.
January 2009
Starting the New Year with a different outlook on health,wealth, family and friendships, then grab a couple of those new inexpensive handbags along with the right magazine subscription (Forbes,Entreprenuer,CosmoGirl Redbook ,or Seventeeen) to(Get more BANG for your BUCKS!) Make a lasting impression, a new you for the New Year, with the right handbag,the right cosmetics, & magazine for all the cash you will be making on that new job. I added my two of my favorite cosmetics jet black eyeline & black mascara plus body spray.
For my biweekly maintenance hair care, I use Pink Smooth Touch, New Growth Relaxer Kit.
I use Wet-N-Wild nail polish for my manicures. Each time I visit the nail salon, I make sure I have my Wet-N-Wild nail polish in my mini travel bag.
Wet-n-Wild is my choice for nail polish. For my biweekly manicure,I prefer Wet-nWild nail polish instead of salon brand. Wet-n_Wild has a variety of colors, the polish doesn't chip too easily and it's inexpensive.
February's Products of the month all are under ($10.00) ten dollars.This month features Radio Shack standard headphones compatible with most personal dvds players,radios, and televisions. Plus, for aspiring young women that love aromatherapy, Body Fantasies White Musk is great to have on hand for refreshing your scent throughtout the work day,instead,of using perfumes,and all over body spray; the Body fantasies is one my alternatives for light rejuvenating scent. Body Fantasies also has a variety of different scents. Hey ladies, you can never have to much lip gloss, get a extra shine with wet-n-wild lip gloss gel and blush in neutral tones .

Kushy Foot Socks&Kiwi Smiling Feet
This month’s product of the month was carefully considered as I decided to run my monthly errands on Friday morningJuly, 3rd, 2009.Normally,I do carry two pairs of shoes in case of an emergency, one pair of heels and one pair of flats but on this particular morning I didn't follow my instincts that eventually slow my day down. Instead,on Friday morning I put on a pair of tan shoes that’s located in the above picture. At first walking out of my place residence to the bus stop I didn't feel uncomfortable in the shoes. Next, I proceeded to get on the bus; still, I was not uncomfortable. It was until I began to walk to several stores in the shopping plaza before I could get to the bank to make a deposit that my feet began feel excruciating pain to the point that I thought my feet were bleeding at the bottom of my soles. That's when I said oh! hexx,no and stopped into Rite aid and bought Kiwi Smiling Gel pads. Did they work? I will put it this way, the product was designed to keep your feet from slipping in the shoes, certainly, from the perspective of the maker, yes, and it did work. However, the smiling gel pad was not enough to keep my feet from feeling uncomfortable. As a result of not having enough cushions at the soles, I stopped by my local grocery store and bought a product called Kushy Foot Socks. Yes, Kushy Foot socks began to temporary relieve my feet. If you’re thing, why not the Dr.Schol’s foot pad? Egregiously, they were not available and I wanted immediately relief for my feet, yes! The Kushy Foot socks worked .Although, the Kushy Foot Socks might have looked awkward to me, it was not visible to the public for the simple fact, I was wearing long tan and white pin stripe pants. I bought the tan pair of shoes a few years back from payless; I prefer the classic look when it comes to wearing shoes for work. Fashion trends in the fashion industry frequently changes;therefore, I recycle clothing andmy older shoes when possible because I know finding quality shoes for a narrow foot can be pricey. In past years I have bought numerous pairs of shoes from payless; however, in the last three years, I have noticed that payless shoes have marketed their shoes towards seasons and holidays. I do not like to wear sandals all year or pastel colors, or patent shiny shoes, I am very conservative when it come to shoes; I have a penchant for brown, black, tan, red and I might consider white. I will say, ultimately, at the end of the day my feet were not smiling but they weren’t bleeding or covered with callouses thanks to Kushy Foot Socks.
This month I chose Ace Cash Express and FedEx Kinko’s for the quality of services that both businesses offers consumers. Services available at Ace Cash Express include the following: Money Grams, Money Orders, Prepaid Visa Cards, Bill Payment Center and Pay Day Loans. Fast Convenient and hassle free a few of the adjectives I chose to describe the Ace Cash Express experience. The quality of service, as well as, customer service I have experienced at Ace Cash Express Stores has been polite courteous, and expedient. I first became aware of Ace Cash Express Stores while living in Florida . Not surprisingly, my initial visit to Ace Cash Express Stores, I was required to show identification and verify information before I was allowed to use the services provided by Ace Cash Express along with a small fee. Indeed, first time customers visiting and utilizing Ace cash Express services will be required to show identification and verify information before being issued Ace cash Express Card. Most importantly consumers utilizing the services of Ace Cash Express should be advised that Ace cash Express cards issued to customers belongs to Ace Cash Express, also the cards issued can only be used at Ace Cash Express location for the services that Ace Cash Express offers. After a first time customer has been issued a card, for every visit that an Ace customer uses the Ace Cash Express card the customer will receive an receipt showing Express Rewards more specifically showing points earned. The Money Gram service provided by Ace Cash Express, incontrovertibly,during my visit the Money Gram service has been one of the biggest money savers that I believe Ace Cash Express offers Ace its customers. For example,in comparison to Western Union that normally charges $12.95 to send or make payments; whereas, Money Gram charges $8.95 which amount to a saving s of $4.00. In dealing with my credit cards, and phone services most have system available that will allow consumers the option of Western Union or Money Gram; however, consumer must first check with individual customer services that accept payment for credit cards ,cable ,and phone services.

I was making copies way before I learned to use a copy machine; my love for copying began with carbon paper that I used while helping father in his office,thus it was only apropo with Father Day approaching this month that I chose FedEx Kinko's which offers consumers a service. Most importantly,I chose FedEx Kinko's for the quality of services it provides to its customers. Fast,consumer friendly,convenient just a few of the adjectives that describes my experience with the services at FedEx Kinko's. Great for last minutes office projects,research projects,and business startups. "It's like going into A Day Spa with the only difference being the consumer determines how much hands on approach will be required" summarizes my recent visits to FedEx Kinkos, a lot has changed since I first began going to Kinko's in Florida as a first year teacher the most significant change,of course is the name, initial it was just Kinko's but they have merged with FedEx thus offering an extending array services. During my visit to Kinko's in Florida I basically utilized the copying machines,as well as,lamenations for projects and so forth, at the time Kinko's did provide internet acess which they currently still offer today. Two of the major difference customers will immediately notice first, the name change and second customers must either a have credit card or and issued FedEx Kinkos card to utilize services. The cost of copies is affordable .

But when we waken, why do we wake Up? At a meeting, why does a topic come UP? And why are participants said to speak UP? Why are officers UP for elections? And why is it UP to the secretary to write Up a report?” The little word is really not needed, but we use it anyway. We brighten UP a room, light UP a cigar. Polish UP the silver, lock UP the house and fix UP the old car. “At other times, it has special meanings. People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work Up an appetite, think Up excuses and get tied Up in traffic.” “To be dressed is one thing, but to be dressed UP is special. It may be confusing, but a drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP.” We open UP a store in the morning, and close it UP in the evening. We seem to be all mixed UP about UP. “In order to be UP on the proper use of UP, look UP the word in the dictionary. In one desk dictionary, Up takes Up half a page; and the listed definition add Up to about 40.
“If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways in which UP is used. It may take UP your time, but if don’t give UP, you may wind UP with a thousand”
(Speaking of up,a"Dear Abby" correspondent mail to the above quote to Reader digest twenty-five years ago.)
