Great Savings With Walgreens

This post brought to you by Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine.

Medical expenses are very high these days, when my son got sick last month, his fees were quite high for just a normal cough and flu.  After this incident, it is advisable to keep some medicine at home for safeguarding.  One of the websites I came across as most reasonable and affordable is Walgreen website where they are offering great discounts and savings.  Let ne tell you briefly about their benefits, one of them is their special discount on their annual membership for its Prescription Savings Club at Walgreens. 

For just $10 a year, you can over your whole family membership and that includes your spouse and your kids below 22 of age and that includes pets as well. LOL.... how humorous!   If you are not married, do not be disappointed, you can still join for a small fee of $5 only, with this membership, you are also entitled to receive discount prices on your prescriptions as well.

With this membership, you can save on 8,000 brand-name products and all generic medications as well.  Not only that, you can have discounts on flu shots, pet prescriptions, nebulizers and diabetic supplies.   Besides that when you purchase any Walgreen products and photofinishing, you can save up on bonuses.  Isn't that great?  We can continue to support Walgreens by liking them on Walgreens on Facebook and following them on Walgreens on Twitter.

 

 

 

Happy Chinese New Year 2012

Easy Access To Rooms For Rent

My daughter just finished her SPM and will be continuing with her higher education. I asked her where she would want to study. She told me that she wanted to study in Kuala Lumpur. I was puzzled because I do not know anyone from Kuala Lumpur nor do I have anyone who stays nearby her college. So, what I have to do is that I have to find her a room nearby her college. Not only that, since she is a girl, it’s safer if I find her a good landlady so that she doesn’t get bullied. 

Most importantly, I have to find her a good safer area and a place as near as possible to her college so that she doesn’t have to travel far to college every day. I asked my friends if anyone knows where to find rooms for rent. My friend recommended me one website to search for rooms for rent at iBilik . So, I went back home and searched through that website. To my surprise, that website has a lot of rooms to choose from.

That website is easy to browse because you can choose the options you want and it will sort it out for you. Not only that, another benefit would be, avoiding the hassle for going through house agents because if I were to go through house agents to get me a room, I would be charged extra, whereas going to iBilik to search for a room is free. I am also sure that this website is safe because it has public advertisements all over like the picture shown below.

New Niche - Food And My Embarrassing Thoughts

From today onwards, I will be adding a new theme to this blog... besides giving glory and praises to my Lord God, I will post up the food abundance He has given to me... to us..  Without His provisions, there will not be so much enjoyment in savouring all that is laid on our tables...

As you all know, I love to eat... healthy, unhealthy, I eat but I do not eat in big quantities.... I like to try varieties and love traveling to try out new food that I have not tasted before..

Let me tell you one of my "weaknesses" and this might be very embarrassing to reveal too.. hahaha...

At times when I go to sleep, I think of food.. and my mouth sort of "twitches" and "yum-ming" like I am really tasting the desired food!!  Gosh.. have you all experienced that before???

Best Treatment Of All

Each morning when we switch on the television or read the newspapers, we see disasters, natural phenomenal happenings, murders, suicides, accidents happening everywhere, so much so, that all these are part of our daily lives.  Some of us are more or less immune to what is happening in this world, while many others are thankful that they are not involved in these mishaps, on the other hand, there are plenty of people who are feeling devastated over all these tragedies.  Those who are deeply affected, victims who lost their families, they turn to drugs to overcome their emotions.  Friends and love ones give encouragement to them and some agree to seek Holistic Addiction Treatment to ease themselves from deeper drugs involvement.  While others seek this treatment, they are other recovery programs such as Residential Addiction Treatment which cater for individuals who have specific spiritual needs and that includes Christian Addiction Treatment .  Everyone of us need God, only He can comfort and give us peace and love.  While earthly and material things will fade, God's love for His children, such as us, will never be lost.  All we need is to turn to Him... His treatment is the best of all...

Eternal Love

My friend is a florist.. for the past few years, she presented bouquet of flowers for my birthday.  This year I love the sweet roses she made... though there were only three stalks, the sweet thoughts were there in this mini bouquet.  

They are fresh flowers and they lasted for nearly a week or so.  It is such a waste to see them fade away, if only there were everlasting, how nice they would be.  

But in this world, nothing is everlasting, earth will fade away but our Lord's love is eternity!

Electrical Appliances And Their Latest Gadgets

Oh dear, my LCD television set is in trouble!  Last night when I switched on the TV, it had a three inches dark patch showing horizontally across the screen.  How awful!  This morning I quickly called up the service center and the man relayed these sad news to me.  He told that it is no point getting the TV repaired, the cost will be almost as high as getting a new TV!  Gosh, that is really sad news!  I remember buying this appliance five or six years ago, don't tell me that I have to brush it aside now?  It is just a waste to put it aside and not repairing it, right?  What should I do actually? I better ask for a second opinion before I purchase a new set.
In fact another one of my TV is also going to "conk" out soon, my son has been pestering me to get a full set of home theater, it is not every expensive, so he said.  But I got to check online first before I decide.  There is this website that gives more details and information on electrical stuff, such as the AVR-4311CI receiver among the many choices here in this website.  My son will love this accessory in the house, he told me that watching a movie is very costly, might as well invest in a good set of these home appliances in our living hall.  Well, I will think about it.... yes...

Protect Your iPad

My buddy has no regrets getting an iPad for herself recently.  Initially she was having qualms whether to get a laptop or an iPad, she just couldn't decide then.  After weighing the pro and cons with me, she decided that an iPad is more suitable for her.  The reason is the Games!  She simply loves playing virtual games, unlike me, I love surfing and blogging but she likes to have fun playing games online.  She told me that the games help to release stress in a way.  I guess she is right!  But she made a wrong choice choosing the iPad color, she chose a white iPad instead of the black in color one.  She regretted buying white but I told her not to worry.  There are now so many websites online giving cheap rates on the protective sleeves.  One of them is this website whereby you can purchase them for as low as $17.99.   These protective sleeves for iPad are water resistant, form-fitting and resealable.  Written here that there will be no muffled sound during the audio playback and secondly, the full touch screen operation and the crystal view is very visible and not affected by the protective iPad sleeve at all.

Vanity Drive

I read this book recently - Vanity Drive by Yvonne Lee.  Initially I thought it is just another one of those "groom up" books but I was very wrong.  From the first chapter onwards, I was so engrossed by her writings on her experiences from a young girl to a mother of three kids now.

Her wits and the way she writes is amusing and I am sure many ladies will agree with me when they read this book. There are some parts that made me laugh .... yes, very true.. just like Us Ladies!...

Thanks Kathy for sharing this book with me...

Thailand Floods

Pray our neighbouring country, Thailand...

I didn t know it was so serious till I read and saw these pictures online...

http://pictures.reuters.com/c/C.aspx?VP3=FlashSlideShow_VPage&R=2C04080WIX1O7&T=A&H=1

Their Prime Minister has announced a five day holiday for evacuation... She mentioned that the dikes might not hold out for long.. "dikes" means an embankment for controlling or holding back the waters of the sea or a river.... hearing this, it is sad.......

As if this is not dangerous enough, there is another problem lurking.... Crocodiles are rampant in Thailand and it is reported that scores of them have escaped from the farms during the floods....

Let's pray for the floods to subside in no time... and all will be well....

It is so near... to us....

Count our blessings...

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Straight Talk for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

 

Ever since my boys have left home to pursue their studies few years ago, I have been calling them frequently through house telephone line or using cell phone.  If I were to add up all my phone bills, I would get a “heart attack!”  To avoid this from happening, I have been asking around how to save cost and at the same time, calling them as often as I can.  Well, the answer could be on this Straight Talk – All You Need Plan. 

 

I logged into their youtube video clip and their website for more information and details before making a decision.  Briefly about this plan is that it can practically slashed my monthly bills into half, with the lower rate calls to long distance and international calls, my bill will not be as much as I am paying now! This package comes with attractive benefits including 1000 minutes, 1000 free text messages and 300 MB of web data.  Not only that, they offer this without tying up to a contract!  With The power of Android phones at only $45 monthly with unlimited usage, we can have all the apps and games included in as well. Well, for me, lowering rate charges is enough to get my attention and now with the cheap monthly charge, I can now Feel Richer with Android.  Moreover, this package is suitable for all trusted phone manufacturers that include Nokia, LG, Motorola, Samsung, Kyocera and other amazing smart phones with lots of attractive features.  I am sure my kids will love to know more about this plan in Straight Talk.  Here is a brief video clip for your quick understanding.

Online Student Assessment

With the shortage of jobs affecting the young adults in today's economy, one need to achieve at least a degree or if possible a double degree to secure a good income to survive. During my time it was a bit difficult to achieve higher education. There was no Internet during my schooling days, I stayed in a town where there was hardly any universities around too. But now thirty years later, everything is so easily obtained.
With the online websites that provides distance learning, it is a worthwhile effort to get a degree in whatever course you are interested in and for those learning schools, they have this special package to make admission so much easier for registration and enrollment plus decision-making processes so much easier for online student assessment. Here with this Wonderlic's Distant Learner Admissions Package, student assessment are easily provided to help identify risk factors that could affect retention and completion rates. These are available to the applicants 24/7 for self administration through the Internet. Other than these services, other package that includes adult basic education test is also available in this Wonderlic Distant Learner program.

IN All Things, Give Thanks!

God is indeed good all the time...

This afternoon my colleague and I were talking about how good God is in our lives... she was so happy for all and whatever God has given to her... she praises Him all the time...
Sensing that, I told her about what my pastor mentioned in his sermon some time ago...
He reminded us that life on earth for Christians is not always smooth... but because we have God by our side, we trust that He will lead us through the stormy paths...

He continued to share with us that we must thank God IN all things... not FOR all things.. they carry a different meaning....

In all circumstances, give thanks.... if something bad happens, do not be forlorn.. give thanks In all things..trust in Him and He will make something good out of the "bad."

Halleluyah...

How Good It Is ...

After the feedback, I need to take up guitar lessons.... the amplifier was too loud and it was very noisy.. I was feeling quite disappointed...

But just a moment ago, I realized that as long as our hearts are on the worship, it does not matter how our voices sound... as long as all praises and glory are dedicated to our Lord God...

MSF Worship And Brunch Buffet

I didn't expect there were so many present for the Methodist Senior Fellowship Brunch Buffet, in fact, I have cold feet after seeing so many people... later I got to to know there were around 260 or so....

I was thinking, "Gosh.. pastor is around... so were other professional musicians among those present for the buffet... sure embarrassing.... " Quickly I said a word of prayer to ask God for help.. "Let me be oblivious of the crowd, lets just sing to You alone.. help me to play good music for You alone, Lord, help me to overcome my self consciousness fears........."

before the brunch....

Let my heart be calm....

getting ready....

Let's get started... serious concentration...

Let's worship our Lord with our hearts...

Warming up...

someone mentioned why I was so serious..

part of the crowd...

I Know It Is You All The Time...

I believe in God protecting us... I believe in Him talking to us in small voices... prompting.. in a way...

The other night as I was upstairs blogging away, totally engrossed, I heard a sound of an insect somewhere above my head. I brushed it aside... few seconds later, another noise... like it fell on the floor or fell on something that made a sound... and that got me very startled! I got up straightaway and expected to find a cockroach or what on the floor... but Nothing!

Before I could sat down again, I heard some sssss sound... OOPPSSS!!! I quickly ran downstairs....

I suddenly remember that I didn't turn off the gas stove.. the kettle of water had been boiling for more than half hour! The water remaining was only half....

Thank you, God! I know You have sent something to scare me out of my wits.. hahahaa... something that made me get up from my chair instead of engrossing myself in my blogging...

I know it was You... and all the time, it is You.... Thank you!!
