Send Google A Text Message06.11.07

Have you ever wished that you had the phone number for that great Chinese restaurant up the street or wish that you could find a pharmacy while on vacation? Here is a tip for all of you who love to text message and love to save money. Eliminate 411 charges by texting google. Store 46645 (GOOGL) in your phone’s contact list. Then send GOOGL a message like, Pizza 10701. Within minutes I have the number to my favorite pizza place in Yonkers. Texting Google works well with the weather and searches as well as pizza. Try it out… gotta run, I’m getting hungry.

Save Money and Catch Movies Online06.09.07

Are you online just as much as I am?  Probably not but if you’re close to putting in some serious web hours, take a break and go to the movies.  Tired of paying $9 for your ticket and even more for a medium popcorn and drink?  Me too!

I love going to the movies but those prices don’t always fit into my frugal habits.

Check out TV Links for an alternative way to catch your favorite movies.

Sunday Home Project: Front Yard06.03.07

My front yard has been in need of a make over for three seasons now. With 4 hours and 50 bags of pine bark I was able to transform the front area of the house from ashy to classy.
