I constantly get asked “What is a Bricks coupon?”

Maybe you already know, or perhaps you don’t know but just never asked.

A “Bricks coupon” is one that starts with the word “bricks” in the web address. These coupons are usually printable, and can also be requested by mail.  

In order to request the coupon by mail you need to do the following.  Click the coupon link to go to the page you would normally print from.  Look in the bottom lower right hand corner of the page for the HELP button.  Click this, and it will bring up another page for you to enter your mailing info. Fill this out, and you coupon will arrive via US Mail in a few days.  

With Bricks coupons, you can print the coupon, hit the back button twice and PRINT TWO.

YOU CAN DO THE SAME THING WITH THE HELP LINK!  Fill it out, hit the back button twice and request two.  

This is a great feature when you are running low on ink, out of ink, or without a printer.

I’m sure you’ve heard the expression “The Luck of the Irish”  ~  WHY are the Irish so lucky?

Many people, including my 83 year old mother, insist that planting a potato on St. Patrick’s Day will bring you Good Luck in the coming year!!

I try to remember to do this every St. Patrick’s Day ~ I can use all the GOOD LUCK I can get!!

Have YOU ever planted a potato on St. Patrick’s Day?  I am not sure where this tradition started but I do know that St. Patrick’s Day is a good time to start your garden plants!

Do you have a favorite St. Patti’s Day tradition?  What is it??

 Budget Blinds will be featured on the 4/13/13 episode of Undercover Boss!

I love this show and can’t wait to see this episode.

Do you watch Undercover Boss? Will you watch this episode?

I just saw on the 11:00 news that there will no longer be Saturday mail delivery beginning Saturday, August 1st.

Package delivery WILL continue to occur on Saturdays.  This is in an effort to save money (a reported TWO BILLION DOLLARS).  

I think it’s both a good and bad idea, and that it will take some getting used to not getting mail on Saturdays.

What do YOU think about no mail on Saturdays beginning August 1st?

Some see 3D TV as a wonderful new experience and the TV of the future while others see it as a temporary fad that will be long gone in just a few short years. At the end of the day, 3D viewing as a concept is only a baby, an emerging technology that hasn’t had time for all the kinks to be ironed out yet.

So, will it grow and develop into something every home owner simply has to have, or is it just a flash in the pan that nobody will even remember in ten years time?

At present, the main drawback to 3D TV is the need to wear special glasses to view it. Even advocates of 3D technology would prefer a version that didn’t require these, but as things stand it is simply not possible.

An LED TV from appliancesdirect.co.uk may not offer the full immersion experience of a 3D TV, but on the plus side you don’t have to look stupid while you watch it. Not only are the glasses usually quite unattractive, but the inconvenience of having to find them and wear them whenever you want to watch TV often far outweighs the visual benefits.

Another problem with 3D television today is that, although made for 3D movies can be spectacular, the effect is often less impressive when film-makers have tried to add 3D images after production.

In a catch-22 type situation, until 3D TVs are more popular then most films and programmes will still be made in 2D, but until there are more high-quality 3D movies and programmes in existence then people will not want to bother with paying for a 3D television.

A 3D TV at Appliances Direct UK or anywhere else is pricier than a regular television as they quite simply cost more to make.

But with an increase in cost comes an increase in viewing experience.
