eBay 
Lesson #1: How to search
|
I have received a ton of email about eBay and finding deals. Here is one that blows me away every time. Once you find what you want, search to see if others are selling it. Case in point: search for "Metal & Hard Wood Sedona Queen Bed & Frame" and it brings up the same two items, however, the one that is over $30 MORE has two bids. Don't forget to search titles & descriptions also, sometimes what you want is to specific to be in the title, but will be in the body of the listing.

DirectlyHome
Free Kitchler Lamp with purchase of $700 or more
|
As the email explained it to me, DirectlyHome has an excess inventory of Kitchler lamps that they need to move. These are new, closeout lamps, that originally sold in the $300-600 range, that they have no photography for. As a result they are running a promotion, where anyone who spends over $700 in the store gets a free lamp (the coupon also saves you $0.01 on your order) when they use coupon code: FREELAMP

Buying Bed Sheets, a quick guide to materials and thread count:
|
Materials:
? Egyptian cotton: Cotton cultivated in Egypt feels softer than other cottons, generates less lint and is more durable.
? Pima cotton: Previously called American-Egyptian, this is a high-quality cotton developed from Egyptian cotton and grown only in the southwestern United States. The cotton is exceptionally soft, and the fibers are strong and firm.
? Modal: A category of manufactured fibers known for their strength. The fabric retains its shape well.
? Lyocell: A manufactured fiber made from trees. It's soft, strong and absorbent. It's also strong when wet and simulates silk or suede. It's wrinkle-resistant and drapable.
? Polyester: The most common polyester for fiber purposes is polyethylene terphthalate, or PET. It's a strong synthetic fiber that resists shrinking, stretching, mildew, abrasion and wrinkling. It washes easily and dries quickly. It's also used to make plastic soft drink bottles.
? Silk: Silk sheets feel wonderful, but cost and cleaning restrictions make these a somewhat impractical selection.
Egyptian and Pima cottons are generally the most desirable. Always look for sheets that are clearly market ?100% cotton?, many sheets are labeled "cotton rich", and whilst these sheets may prove to be fantastic, the term is misleading in that it often means a mix of cotton and polyester or other synthetic.
Thread Count:
Thread count is the number of horizontal and vertical threads in one square inch of fabric. High-quality sheets have at least 180 threads per square inch. Look for "Percale" on the package to identify sheets with a thread count of at least 180. The higher the thread count, the softer the "hand" or feel of the sheet.
Most people think of a thread count in the 300-400 range as the best (a compromise between count and price), however, thread count does go as high as 700. It should be noted that sheets with a thread count of 500 or over are the result of two threads being twisted in a way that allows the makers of these linens to double the reported thread count. Expect to pay significantly more for higher thread counts.
Other:
Once you've decided on fabric and thread count, it is always nice to look at the construction. Look for things like elastic all the way around, deep pocketed sheets (especially if you have a pillow or box top mattress) and some manufacturers even put elastic flaps on the corners, keeping the sheets in place for even the most restless sleepers.
