Truly Unique Gift Giving Ideas Made Easy with Geek Alerts!

I have a handful of people in my family and close circle of friends who are somewhat hard to shop for. Can you relate? Wouldn't it be awesome to find a one-stop source for all the latest gift-giving ideas, that aren't likely to be duplicated?

That day has arrived folks! I've found an awesome Geeky Gadgets Site loaded with one awesome find after another. Many are geared towards your favorite geek, but others are just plain fun! Some of the featured products are even useful! lol

I love this pen because it uses no ink! Seriously! It won't run dry and isn't that something we could all benefit from? There's even a key-chain version of this pen, which will write on most surfaces.What a great gift for anyone really... and what are the odds they've even heard of this product, let alone own one?

Now for the other bit of awesomeness associated with GeekAlerts.com... they have coupon codes on site! Everyone should look for coupon codes before checking out from an online retailer. Often times you'll find flat discounts and/or free shipping. Sometimes other incentives and money saving opportunities are just a click away!

Geekalerts.com has Apple Store coupons and Vistaprint coupons! I've never bought an Apple computer, but when I was in the market for a laptop last year, I found scads of promotion and coupon codes for computers online. You just have to know where to look.

I've used Vista Print for years for business cards, and for promotional post cards for a women's ministry I once lead. They're awesome! Very professional and affordable even without a coupon code, but hey if you can save even more moolah... go for it!

Big House Blues

Guest post written by Joseph Finch

It's nice having a big house, but there are some things I didn't think about when I bought the place that really add up. For example, the longest day I spend a lot of money each month just on watering bills and lawn care alone… Definitely something I didn't think about when I first bought the place. Another thing I didn't consider was having to get an alarm system to protect all my valuables, even though there haven't been that expensive since I did a lot of research beforehand at HOMESECURITY101.com. it costs a lot for all utilities, especially electricity bill, but I guess it's worth the price you pay to have a lot more square footage. If I had to do over again I might reconsider exactly how big I needed my house to be, but I can't say I don't love living here. I know the kids like all the extra space in the dogs are having the time of their lives running around the grounds!

Review of FollowFunction.com... Awesome Prices, Amazing Style

My favorite room in the house is the kitchen... which is one of the reasons I manage 3 blogs on food! lol Given that I spend so much time in the kitchen and love cooking gadgets, appliances, and unique serving units, it's no wonder I'm anxious to review FollowFunction.com.

Follow Function is one of the many online stores offered by Wholesale Furniture Brokers and while this awesome website sells more than just kitchen related products (they sell everything from toys to furniture!), I'm going to focus on the kitchen! lol

I love this salt and pepper shaker! If I buy this duo no later than June 17th it will be on sale and ship for free. Talk about incentive! Oh... and there's more! I'll also pay zero sales tax!


I'm also admiring the look of the water pitcher picture below (click the photos to visit the site page directly). It's so unique! And... like the salt and pepper shakers, it too is on sale and will ship free of charge should I order no later than June 17th. You realize that's just a couple days away!

Did you stumble onto this post later than June 17th, 2011? Not to fret.. if you miss a sale at Wholesale Furniture Brokers you'll be relieved to learn they are continuously offering new sales. In fact, this is one of the many things I appreciate about this retailer. I've found great prices and free shipping offered more than once. The best part in my ever so humble opinion is I don't even have to go hunting for a coupon or promo code as I do for so many other online retailers. The sales and incentives are right there... no hunting required!

While I can't promise your must have item will always be on sale, or that you'll always find free shipping, I definitely believe it's worth watching for! Best Blogger Tips

Thinking Outside the Box... Scrubs Instead of Aprons in the Kitchen!

Have you ever found yourself covered in frosting even after removing your favorite apron after a day in the kitchen? I have. Makes me think that there might be a better answer.

Would it be odd for me to suggest wearing scrubs in the kitchen? lol Not the same scrubs you wear to work mind you, but a designated set of scrubs to wear for baking that could easily be tossed into the wash after a day in the kitchen. Not only are scrubs comfortable, but they're light, and as displayed in the photo... can be really cute!

When I'm in the kitchen I often get overheated, but scrubs are made from cotton... meaning they breath! I don't think I'd even need my apron if I had scrubs. Blue Sky has scrubs for men and women... even scrubs for kids! Seriously... who knew? I'm impressed by the clean look of their products at  http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/categories/Scrubs/Scrubs-for-Men/.

If you're looking for nursing scrubs on sale take a look at Blue Sky Scrubs! They have a dedicated section on their website for sale merchandise and currently they have women's pink scrubs on sale! I think they'd make great pj's too!

What do Father's Day, Geeky Gifts, and Promo Codes Have in Common?

I'd say Geek Alerts! For me they all fall together beautifully... especially given that until 15 minutes ago I had no clue what to get my father or husband for Father's Day. An all too familiar feeling that hits me several times a year.

I absolutely love the gadget news and cool gift ideas (some I never even knew existed) that I just uncovered at Geek Alerts. Within seconds of discovering their site I found several appealing gadgets, gizmos, and modern day "geek" essentials.. including a waterproof cover for an iPad. Seriously awesome idea!

We noticed the other day that our public pool had wireless Internet available and we all joked about how ridiculous that was. Who on earth would be using the Internet... even in the snack bar area, with the pool just feet away? Why someone with a plastic covered iPad of course! If you visit Geek Alerts you'll even find a photo of a man sitting in a pool using his iPad! Crazy cool!

The other awesome thing about this geek loving website is they offer a directory of coupons... which I always go hunting for before I shop. I found Apple Store coupons, Amazon coupons, Best Buy coupons and so much more. Bookmarking this site for future shopping endeavours makes sense on a variety of levels and being the sensible gal that I am, you betcha I'm going to mark this site!

Promo codes are also waiting to be uncovered at Geek Alerts for the most popular stores on the web... I found Newegg promo codes which will help me save on electronics at Newegg.com! Ca-ching!
