Present For Bro

Wow! I was wondering wat present to get for my brother for Christmas and this website has given me ideas for gifts for him. I think he would like the Red Brake Disc ashtray!!! It looks really cool! If he had a garage, I would get him a Garage Storage System for his tools which he can put away neatly after playing with them.

My Sparks

This is cool. It's a little MySpace widget from Impulse. Stick it on your profile and passers-by can type in their profile name to see how much they spark with you. You can get one for your own page from the rather pretty microsite at www.actonimpulse.com/index.aspx?contentId=mysparks. It's a bit of a faff - you'll need to register first - but well worth it. No smells though ;-)

You can get yourself a MySparks widget here.

Virtual International Calling Cards

Pingo, if u r thinking of calling abroad, offers cheap international calling cards online. When u sign up, u'll get 5 hours or $5 of free calls. It's a pretty good deal cos u can use this from anywhere to call everywhere and u can get it online, so no need to go out in the rain and get sick like i did. And if u finish ur credit during a phone call, they won't cut u off in the middle of the conversatio either. sign up and enter tis discount coupon 'ppp3' to get another $3 off. So that means, u pay $17 for $25 worth of calls. There're no hidden fees as well unlike some of the other calling cards I've used to call home. My balance got deducted for reasons I'm not even aware of and everytime I checked, my credit was less for no apparent reason! hehhe..so u can get a Pingo prepaid calling card and call me at RM0.26 (3.8p) per min (see rates) to talk to me when I get homesick!!! Pingo also offers business and family deals as well where u can manage international calls for different people under one main account! I wonder if Rick is interested cos he calls home quite often too... Another good service Pingo offers is their refer a friend programme. When a friend signs up, u get paid $5. Hehe..maybe i should get him to sign up under me and get the $5...

Easy Hotel Reservation

When Rick and I booked our hotels for our Summer Vacation, we went to many websites lookng for the best deals in hotels... believe me...we went to a great many websites before deciding on one. It actually took about 2 weeks to finally plan our holiday. I wish we had found this website back then cos this website would have saved us a lot of bickering and time deciding on which hotel to choose. Hotel Reservationsoffers a whole range of hotels to choose from ranging from 2-star to 5-star hotels to choose from depending on how much you are willing to spend on hotel rooms. They tell you very clearly how much the rooms are and whether breakfast is provided. This i think is important cos on our holiday, we weren't sure if breakfast was provided and we had to ask at every hotel we checked in at. this website also gives you the option of renting a car. You can also book your whole holiday from flights to hotel rooms to renting cars all at the same time. This is because they have a vacation package service which allows you to book everything at the same time and even give you many options to choose fom again depending on how much you want to spend...And the best thing is you plan all of this at home with just a click of the mouse! And if your whole family of sisters and brothers and uncles and aunts want to go, they offer vacation rentals like the whole house, resort chalets, condo apartments, etc to choose from. how cool is that? I was just clicking on Hawaii, who know?? maybe i'm lucky enough to go there one day!! and you can book flights and resort rooms all over Hawaii. If we had known about this website, we would have definitely saved ourselves a lot of time and energy going through all the other websites to book our holiday. And save money too if we had so many discounts available to us back then!!! I definitely recommend you to try out this website. Summer is not over yet!!!

New Postie

make money (click on me! click on me!)

When I first started to blog, I thought I was just going to tell everyone about my new life in UK on my blog(i never thought blogging can make money!) ... I'm enjoying myself heaps being here with Rick and doing things I never had time for like all my new hobbies- blogging, scrapbooking, knitting, etc... amd I enjoy telling everyone what I've been up to on my blog... and then when i was reading Cheryl's(my best friend's wife), I saw this PayPerPost sign and $$$ beckoned me to try it and see if i really can make money out of this... I mean who wouldn't want to get extra money doing something they like, right? hehehe...so far it has been fun... after waiting for 3 agonising months to qualify, I finally do... and now the challenge is to write reviews... this is the fun part... u get to go check out new websites and read about them and then review them... hehehe... the power of reviews... not only earning extra money(heheh though in my case, it's my only source of income!) i think by asking Cheryl more questions about this, it sort of brought us closer as friends and not just as my-husband's-friend or my-best-friend's-wife... bottom line is... i love doing the PayPerPost reviews and i love being a new postie!!! it's a lot of fun.. try it!!!

Holidays in Australia

flights to Australia This is the link to the website we used.

Rick and I were talking about holidays in Australia the other day and I was surfing the internet for a good website that offers cheap flights to Australia and I found this website http://www.dialaflight.com/flights/australia/. DialaAFlight offers Flights to Australia and holiday offers that are really cheap and convenient to book. This website offers Sidney Flights, Melbourne Flights, flights to Gold Coast and other places in Australia, all of which fly from Heathrow. All you hv to do is enter info in the travel search and they will give u the best flights. then all u hv to do is call the number and book ur flight. Rick called them and said they were really friendly and helpful when he asked them all sorts of questions (being the Aussie he is... hehe...) they also give u a choice of hotels to choose from and if u want to hire a car, they help u do that as well. all in a phone call to reserve flights and hotel room for a hassle-free holiday to Australia thru DialAFlight. So all that's left to do is pack our bags and fly!!! I hv never been to Australia so this holiday will be fun. Maybe I can even visit Gold Coast. Lawrence was always telling me I have to go to Gold Coast. hmmm... and maybe even book another flight from Melbourne and visit Aunt Cecelia. hehehe...Thanx to DialAFlight, this holiday will be so so easy to plan unlike all the trouble we went thru for our summer holiday.
