Saving Money One Product at a Time
If I Were Single Again
I want to start this post stating, by saying I do not wish to to be single again. I am perfectly happy being married. The whole reason for this title and this subject is what I have heard from young, middle aged. and older people who find themselves without a partner for one reason or the other. I have seen several single people with interesting attitudes toward money, and saving money. I thoug...
Valentine’s Day the Perfect Gift
Valentine's Day is one of those day's we must not forget, or else! Or else a loved one, or mother maybe hurt, disappointed or upset at the very least. We do have help in not forgetting. Television commercials, displays in stores, and email having been reminding me for almost a month. February 14th is Valentines Day, and we should get our loved one some gift. Now we know we got to get our wife...
Beetle or Cooper
This week we have heard reports about gas prices are going up. After hitting a low of close to $3 per gallon for most of January, we are expecting gas prices to start climbing again. With gas prices climbing, the cost of driving our vehicles one mile has started to increase. For those of you who commute any distant to and from work, it will be a big impact on your budget. Like through out mo...
Wonderful World of Trade Shows
Las Vegas is a great place to go for a getaway vacation. It is also know as one of the most popular places to hold a trade show. If you look at the Las Vegas Convention Convention Center there is back to back trade shows. Still for someone like me, who happens to love trade shows, it is not practical for me to spend so much time in Vegas. In fact there is another location where I can go to a tr...

Drinks and food is going to get spilled. Afterwards there will be some cleaning that need to be done. Depending on wild the party gets will depend on how much cleaning will need to be done.

Gas Mileage Lies
On morning news there was a sniped about a lady who sued Honda for misrepresentation of their gas mileage. It was in small claims court, but still won $10,000. Interesting! It has become pretty much accepted, by all of us, what the sticker gas mileage would be under ideal condition. I am glad someone has stepped up to say, "We are not going to take it anymore!" When I look at different makes...
Touch Screen Desktop Computers
I first saw touch screens computers in the food processing industry back in the late 90's. Since then the technology and the price has been slowly been dropping. As a result we now see more cell phones with touch screens than without. The overall adoption of a touch screen desktop computer has been slow mostly because of the cost. We are seeing the price going under the $1,000 mark. This makes ...
Social Responsible Buying
Last week the name Foxconn and Apple were in all the headlines. It was not about great profits, or some new electronic gadget. It was about the inhumane treatment of the workers in China. What is interesting to note is that Foxconn does not just manufacture electronics for Apple. Foxconn manufacture over 50% of the electronics sold in the United States. Mistreatment of works or labors misbeh...
Secrets of Shopping Wal Mart
Midday on any Saturday or Sunday, at Wal Mart, finds families and couples getting their weekly shopping done. We are at the end of January. People are starting to recover from the Christmas shopping madness. Walking we were greeted by a your 60 oriental lady. I think it is great that Wal Mart seek to find jobs for elderly on fixed incomes. After a quick stop by the cosmetic section for some...
Search for a Practical Usable Tablet
Since before Thanksgiving I have been slowing giving into the idea of getting a tablet. I have looked at all the major brands of tablets and eReaders. I have been trying to imagine how often I would use it. I watch how other people would use their tablets. While attending a local trade show I noticed a large majority of the vendors were using iPads. There were only a few who had other tablets....

Working from Home?

Posted By: The Shopping Nazi on December 7, 2011 in Business, Events - Comments: Comments Off

So often I hear from ambitious people how great it is to work from home. Those who work from home tell me it is a major effort not to flake out. They struggle not to watching TV instead of calling potential clients. Other have a struggle with doing other things around the house.

Hundreds if not thousands of people work in dead end job who would love to be working from home. Their passion is either making a neat product or supplying a fantastic service from home. Many people get disillusioned by what is called multilevel marketing scheme.

Multilevel marketing scheme is where you pay $100, $200 or more to get this starter kit. They have a selection of products to be sold from home. The parent company encourages you to get someone else to sell the products for you. Then you make a percentage of their sales. The presentation from these multilevel marketing companies sounds great.

In reality, it requires work. They majority of people who sign up for this kind of home based business fail within the first year. Either it requires more work than originally expected. The particular area has been saturated with that product or products. Or people can get a better deals for similar products from Wal Mart.

Easy Money, Takes Hard Work

Posted By: The Shopping Nazi on January 30, 2010 in Bargin Places, Business, Lifestyle - Comments: Comments Off

During the first three month of the new year I visit at least one trade show per week. In each one, I have meet over a dozen different people who were pitching their networking products. Some people refer to it as multi level marketing.

I first came across a networking marketing scheme when I was in high school. A friend of the family talked me into selling Amway products. Today, it is hard not to find at least network marketing scheme for any product category.  There are even a few out there for services, like cleaning and computer repair.

If you ever set through one of their sales presentations, it sounds so easy to make a lot of money. The products are suppose to sell themselves. If you want to make the big money, all you need to do is get other people selling those products under you.
