I Heart Credit Cards!

Saturday 30 June 2007 @ 12:16 am

I believe the title of this post says it all! What’s a woman and shopping blog if it did not promote credit cards? So, here I am giving pointers on the benefits of plastic cards, one of men’s greatest invention (that is, in my opinion of course!).

First of all, if you compare credit cards available in the market, you’ll notice how competitive it can get. Many offer free gift just for signing up. So, go and apply for the one with the most awesome gift. Now, benefit number 2 is accumulating bonus points via your purchases. These points can be used to redeem a variety of items depending on your amount of point and the offers available. Now, isn’t that awesome? I just love redeeming these gifts.

Next, when you realized that you’ve overspent or cannot manage to settle your outstanding credit card bills, this is where interest free credit cards comes. Transfer your balance to another card that offers this benefit and you get at least 3 months interest free on your outstanding amount. How cool is that? Lol.

Finally, just a word of advice. Credit cards can also caused a person to fall into heavy debts, so know your budget, spend wisely and you can reap the benefits of utilizing credit cards.

Lighting Project For Summer

Friday 29 June 2007 @ 5:48 am

Wohoo! It’s summer again but that doesn’t mean it’s all play. There’s home projects to get started and we are concentrating on upgrading our lighting this time round. I’ve been reading some lighting design articles to get a feel of how to decorate our home better so that it’ll look nicer than before we upgrade.

Take a look at some of the lightings that I’ve bought from Premier Lighting for the project:
