Dear Journal,
Well I spent the week wrapping
up my vacation with Serena. On Wednesday we went to visit a friend
in Seattle. On Thursday it was Serena's birthday so Heather and I took
her to the Seattle Center. We went on the Space Needle first she loved
it but mom and dad were kind of shaken from the hight. After that we took
her to the Children's museum. What a great place. Before we left Seattle
we went on some rides. Then we took her out to dinner. We decided to give
her a few presents for here birthday and save the rest for her party. I
gave her a kitchen set and some of my old legos. She played with the legos
all day the next day. On Friday we stayed home most of the day and
cleaned house. Saturday we went to Remlinger Farms. I highly suggest you
go there it's great. There is a two dollar train ride that the kids love.
I have pic's that I will post on the site soon. Sunday was the big birthday
party. She got a ton of presents. Well I have to get going. I have to go
back to work tomorrow and I wish I didn't. So I'm going to go surf. Till
next week Na Noo Na Noo

"The savings are in the card"
One of the most annlying things
is when a business wants you to join a club in order to recieve special
savings. Earlier this year two nationally known businesses started club
card savings programs. Safeway and Rite Aid. Both claim to give you better
discounts if you use the card when you shop. In reality the stores are
using the cards to see how you the consumer shop. I feel this is an invaision
of your privacy. What we buy should not be linked to who we are. We should
not have to have a card to save money. If the stores that are doing this
really want to help the consumer out, they should do it by offering better
savings without inconveinience to the consumer. Not only do these stores
take your personalla information like name, address and phone number, but
they require you to have the card. This will surely create a problem for
those who are in a hurry becuase there will be that unprpared person in
line who has to dig around to find their card. Or maybe the new customer
who has to fill out information. I say we must let these stores know how
we feel about these cards. Let the store personnel or management know that
this is an inconvenience and you don't like it. Boycott these stores. If
they find out they are loosing customers because of the Card, they will
drop it. Most of all the best way to save money, is to shop wisely with
no strings atatched!!!=-) |
