Printer Ink Cartridge Refills at Costco

Have you tried refilling your ink cartridges, rather than paying for a brand new one? Costco has a wide variety that they will refill. They will need to examine your empty cartridge to make sure the facing is in good shape, and if it is still usable, refills are very nicely priced- between $8 and $10. As you can see, that price trumps the cost of purchasing a new cartridge by far and is a greener answer. http://www.costco.com/

Affordable Travel Sites

Many of you have asked me in recent days about my favorite travel websites as you get ready to plan your summer getaways. I have many. I love travelzoo- you need to sign up for their weekly top 20 deals which are perfect for spur of the moment travel. I also like Snique Away, who will give you the latest specials- they are for people that appreciate a higher-end property at steep discount. I would never take a trip without using Trip Advisor to do my research. They are an invaluable resource. I love reading other travelers opinions and ratings, and gathering their suggestions for each destination. For those that would rather skip the hotel and enjoy the comforts of home, try VRBO (Vacation Rentals by Owner). This site is great for people that want more space that a home affords and extras such as more bedrooms and baths as well as pools and other home comforts. Hope these suggestions help. Happy travels!

I took most of the day off of blogging today to go on a fieldtrip. Civil War buffs would love this place...Riley's Farm in Oak Glen. So much going on there, and a great restaurant to boot. All personelle in period costume/character. Order an apple pie or freshly baked bread to bring home with you. Check it out. www.rileysfarm.com
