Tidbits

  • Sleepover at Ikea - Maybe this is the only way to get to the $1 early enough…

  • A ramen bath - Japanese spa with special baths resembling instant noodles.  I wanna play!

  • Old age homes for dogs - 1) Old dogs don’t like to be abandoned at strange places.  2) Playing with young puppies will probably cause the older dogs to die faster due to exhaustion.

  • A remote-controlled pigeon - Oh the poor thing…

  • An article on a brilliant method of teaching grade schoolers about bats and rabies.  I smell a lawsuit.

  • Will trade beer for Crumpler bags.  Tempted by the beanbag and messenger bags…

November 27, 2005 | Shopping |

20% off coupons are evil. Even though you don’t really need stuff, you go and buy something just because you can get around 5% off something nice (15% of the coupon goes to tax). Yup, did more shopping at Linens n’Things today. For an hour, so I can get…

Canadians Deserve Affordable High-end European Appliances Too!

November 12, 2005 | Geek, Shopping |

So it all started with my birthday gift. A few months after moving into our Waterloo apartment, we managed to gradually slip in furniture pieces and household bits on the odd weekends, until all that is left is a vacuum. There were no extra ones in our households to…
