It’s Boxing Day! Time to Give Your Family a Treat
From time to time, it’s good to have a time out and treat your family for a nice holiday or a shopping spree session with your extra money. Everybody likes receiving presents, but it’s more satisfying to give rather than to receive. The joyful look of your children and spouse upon opening up the gifts is priceless. Absolutely priceless. As people used to say, the material doesn’t matter, it’s the thought that counts.
And today I decided to take my family for a little treat down the Southampton city centre. It’s boxing day here in the UK, the time where everything should be theoretically cheaper than normal days. So when it’s cheaper, people go shopping. And we did exactly that.
The first stop was Pumpkin Patch where my children got their clothes. Handzalah, my son got some t-shirts and a belt. Yup since his size is a bit smaller than ‘standard’ English boy size, there’s a need to tighten up a bit on the waist. It’s a bit hard to buy pants especially. Generally Asians are a bit smaller than Europeans so finding the right size for your clothes is a daunting job in this country, if you’re Asian that is. That’s why the sight of me buying a pair of pants here is absolutely rare, since I know there won’t be any that suits me. Anyway, Fidaa’ my daughter got her skirt and some t-shirts as well.
Next stop, The Perfume Shop. We tried out some perfumes until I couldn’t distinguish which is which, and that ended up a stalemate. We skipped that until later.
Make Money with Photo Blankets?
Can you imagine what it’s like to have a Photo Throw or your own family portrait printed on your bedding accessories? I never thought people could make money from such ideas until I came to VisionBedding.com. This site offers a wide range of personalized gifts and home decor with blankets and other bedding accessories as its main attraction. Mind you, personalized means you get to have your own photos on these items! And that’s not limited to those lovely scenic images of the nature you’ve been taking with your camera but also images of people or in other words you can even have your face printed on them. Even your dog could have his/her own personalized photo bed from this site.
They use a special, superb high quality modern technology to dye those favourite pictures of yours into fabrics just like normal clothes and no worries as they are machine washable and won’t fade easily. This might be a good idea for the next occasion you would need a gift to think of. It will also be a nice collection for the family and your loved ones to keep at home. Now, what picture shall I use for my blanket?
Higher PR Gives You More Opportunities to Make Extra Money
I’ve been enjoying my PR3 since Google awarded it to me 2 months back. I agree with what 5xmom said in her blog, people can keep on being sour grapes saying that they don’t need high PR from Google but the truth is, deep down inside everybody needs high PR. It’s just whether they want to say it out loud or they just don’t want to give in to Google’s regime.
It’s true, in some cases you don’t need very high PR to make money from your blog. If you’ve already built up your list of loyal readers, no matter what your PR is, they will always come back to your blog every single day. In other words, perhaps organic traffic matters less compared to the amount of traffic you get from your subscribers. Look at John Chow. He’s still making a lot of money from private ad sales and affiliate commissions although his PR has been cut down by the Googfather
