Since we’re at the beginning of the winter holiday season, there are a lot of great sales going on at my favorite stores.
I bought a $100 netbook to use when I go to coffee shops.
It’s lightweight and easily performs the basic functions I need to get my work done for the company that employs me. I like that I can bring it with me whenever I leave the house and not feel like I’m lugging around a huge weight like I do with my traditional laptop. The old laptop feels like it’s four times as heavy as the netbook. If I hadn’t looked at their website, I would have never seen the electronics store’s sale on the netbook and wouldn’t have gotten this amazing machine. But the electronics store is not the only place having amazing holiday sales right now. Even the hardware store is having great sales. I use a lot of air purifiers both in my home and in my office at work, and their filters and UV-C bulbs that need to be replaced regularly can get fairly expensive. It’s nice to buy these products when they are marked down during holiday sales. My HVAC supplier is following suit and trying to compete with the hardware stores because they’re having similar promotions. They sold me new UV-C bulbs for my air conditioner at 40% off the regular manufacturer price. It’s a really good deal, especially since these bulbs aren’t cheap and need to be replaced every 12 months. Now my air conditioner is even cleaner than before with the UV-C lights running 24 hours a day.
