Shop Fo Cute, Creative Gifts For Babies, Siblings, Nephews, Nieces As Christmas Gifts

Filed under: Gifts — Home Cleaning Work At Home Mom @ 7:15 am

Hubby and I live in Cameron Highlands, which is about 200km away from my family in Kuala Lumpur. Whenever we went back to Kuala Lumpur, we would give flowers and vegetables to my family members and friends.

However, as time passed, they started feeling bored with the flowers and vegetables we gave them…;p As a result, hubby and I had to look for gift ideas or personalized gifts for them. So far, we have given them photo bedding, digital frames, digital key chains, garden flags and custom printing T-shirts.

As for my nieces and nephews, I normally buy baby gifts, creative gifts for babies, siblings, and even moms at The Nest Baby Shop. See, I have picked these 2 baby clothing for my nieces as their Christmas gifts.

Remove Liquid-Chocolate Stains From Light-Beige Carpets

Filed under: House / Home Cleaning Tips — Home Cleaning Work At Home Mom @ 7:10 am

Phew…Fortunately, a buddy of mine shared with me how I could remove the liquid-chocolate stains from the light beige medium-pile carpet. Otherwise, I would have to donate it or leave it in my own house.

This is the tip to remove those stains fast. Scrape off as much chocolate residue as you can. Then, with a white paper towel or clean cloth, apply dry-cleaning fluid to the stains and blot.

If any stain remains, apply a solution of 1/4 teaspoon mild white detergent and 1 cup of room-temperature water. Work from the outer edge of the stain to the middle – always blotting, not rubbing. Rinse with clear water to remove soap residue.

Save $$ By Shopping For Discounts Online

Filed under: Shopping — Home Cleaning Work At Home Mom @ 11:05 am

I am very free today…;D Hubby has gone to Ipoh, meaning which I can blog till dawn again. I have been spending the whole afternoon blog hopping and picking up tips on online shopping. By gathering more tips, I believe that my online shopping experience will be a breeze besides saving money.

These are a few tips you can use to save money by searching for discounts when shopping.

1. Always conduct an online research for coupons in conjunction with any order you are considering placing. For example, if you have a shopping cart of items at Amazon.com, head to your favorite search engine and type in Amazon Coupon to see if they are offering any current coupon promotions.

2. Check if the online store you are shopping offers any instant coupons or discounts for signing up for their newsletter.

3. Check online coupon and discount forums for coupon codes that others may have acquired but are not going to use themselves. People will often post the codes and related information so others may use them.

4. For the same reason that large brick and mortar stores offer the best prices, so do the larger online stores offer the best discounts. Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Overstock all offer deals and discounts that are hard to beat.

5. Software can be purchased for a mere fraction of its original cost by purchasing past versions of titles when new titles are released. Stores that deal specifically with this type of software often sell programs for a few dollars over actual shipping charges.

Discount shopping online is not only possible, it is easily accomplished. You will be rewarded by both dollars saved and satisfaction in knowing you are able to get the best possible price for whatever you are looking to purchase.

Sell Whosale Clothing At Clothing & Jewelry Parties As Home-Based Business

Filed under: Business — Home Cleaning Work At Home Mom @ 4:35 am

To make more money to pay off my credit card debts, I was given a great business idea by a blogging buddy. She suggests that I hold some jewelry or clothing parties at home. My target audience should be women because women love buying clothes for themselves and also family members.

If I can get wholesale clothing, I can sell clothes at cheaper prices. Not only I get more clients and sales, I make more profits. My female clients don’t have to drive 80km away to Ipoh to shop for clothing and jewelry anymore ! They just need to give me calls anytime they like and come to pick up their items at my place. This saves them time and also money.

I have checked out Merchandize Liquidators that specializes in wholesale closeouts, wholesale clothing electronics, tools, shoes, toys and jewelry. There are also whole junior and urban women’s clothing by Polo jeans, DKNY, Apple Bottom, Simply, XOXO or Rocawear. Phew…designer clothing ! I bet my friends and clients will definitely buy from me because they advocate designer clothing, jewelry and accessories.

With just $6.99 per piece with a minimum purchase of 500 pieces, I can start my own home-based business. Thinking of the profits I am going to rake in from wholesale clothing just makes me excited !…;D I think I had better call to place my orders directly at (954) 454 – 7100.

Read Market Research Before Buying Your Home

Filed under: Real Estate — Home Cleaning Work At Home Mom @ 12:55 pm

According to market research, even in bouts of down cycles and recessions, rents have seldom fallen drastically. During such periods in fact, with less people buying properties and new supply cut-back, the rental market is usually quite well sustained.

When good times come round, rents are pushed up by rising employment, income levels, and heightened prosperity. Therefore, owning a piece of real estate – particularly one that is in a fast appreciating location, offers an investor the opportunity to increase his or her wealth by trading up to larger or more expensive properties. In the process, this enlarges his or her wealth and at a faster rate too.

Hawaii Cheap Cruises

Filed under: Vacation — Home Cleaning Work At Home Mom @ 11:36 am

While flipping through my travel magazine just now, I caught sight of some Hawaii cruises. My blogging pal is going to Hawaii with her hubby and son this coming December for one month ! Wow ! I am jealous …;D One month, man ! Well, she works very hard, so she deserves a month-long holidays with her hubby and son.

I wonder if she has booked any Hawaii cruise. I read that there are discount cruise specials offered at CruiseCheap. I bet she will enjoy going on shore excursions : the volcanic adventure and scuba diving on the Big Island of Hawaii , and some hiking and kayaking on Kauai along with shopping on all the islands.

Place Bathroom Decor To Lighten Up Your Mornings

Honestly, hubby is a good shopper if compared to me. He has very good taste when it comes to shopping for home decor, bathroom decor, clothing, souvenirs and all sorts of home accessories.

Look at these 2 items of bathroom decor he bought recently. They are so cute and look great in the house ! The Dolphin Toothbrush Holder is now placed in our bathroom while the Frog Tissue Box Cover is put in our bedroom. See, couple frogs which represent hubby and me.

They are also great gift ideas that I can give my family or friends in future.
