Combining with new site!

Hi everyone, I've been working on a great new site that I'm going to be launching, and I hope to link this one with it!! I really hope that you guys enjoy it. I'm going to be trying to communicate with the Amazon community... I really like that site for some reason. Hopefully you'll be hearing about it soon.

In the meantime, I'll be doing my best to try to provide you guys with great content as quickly as I can. Those gold box deals are great! I wonder if any of you guys check them as obsessively as I do sometimes. It can be addicting, and judging by the forums over at Amazon, people like em a lot. The GB team also seems to take what people say in the forums quite seriously, which will be great. My goal is to help influence that, while helping people enjoy Amazon.com that much more!

Cross Pens

Again, it has been a long time since I've posted here, and its a shame. I haven't been able to build this blog to where I've wanted to. In fact, I haven't been able to do that for many of my blogs, but I haven't really been finding days when I've been at home. There are so many committments and other things I find myself doing, and my blogs get neglected.

However, that hasn't stopped me in finding things that I like and want to share with you. This time, it's another pen. You may have remembered that I mentioned the Fisher Space Pens a while back, and I'm still really into those. Still want to get one actually. This time, however, I've got a little higher class, and while these are more expensive, they are also extremely high quality.

Cross pens are a premier brand of writing utensil, office supply, and other related products. You can get their products engraved, and they have excellent sets and other items. Be sure to check them out at Amazon, or their own site at www.cross.com.

Of course, some of these Cross pens are available in my Astore, and some are eligible for free shipping with Amazon Prime (Another great deal, I might add!)

That's it for today, hopefully more soon!

White Boards

I can't believe how long it's been since I've written here. I try to keep up with all of my blogs, but I've been so busy at my other jobs that I hope you will forgive the length in time between posting. I'm not even sure that there are any readers still coming here, but for those of you that still do, here's another product that I'm really interested in.

You may be a reader of my blogger tips blog, Blog Greens. If you've been over there recently, you may have seen an image of a dry erase board over there. Why do I want this board? Because I believe that it will really help my blogging.

This board is definitely what you want if you need a canvas that you can use over and over again. Best of all, it's pretty cheap, less than $40. You can mount this on your wall and start jotting away ideas. The next thing you know, you'll have filled it up with all your great ideas. It's also a good place to put messages and keep track of things that you need to see right away.

Of course not everyone will need a dry erase board this large. If you don't, Amazon has plenty of others!

You can check out this product through any of the links that are placed through this post (aff). I've started using Triggit to tag these posts... let me know what you think!

In preparation for Black Friday, Amazon has announced that they will have a Black Friday Page up with all of the deals that they will be offering. My Deals widget located at the top of the page will now display deals that Amazon is offering. Of course I will still add items to my store, because I love writing about those things when I have time. However, check back here for the deal of the day, just in case you're interested!

Also, in addition to this, Amazon is now offering the customer vote once again. There are a lot of great deals to be had here, including a 46 inch 1080p flat panel television for just $716. That's a pretty freakin sweet deal!! Other things, such as the hard to find Nintendo Wii are also available. Make your votes now so that you can get a chance for these great deals!

Why waste your Black Friday waiting outside in a parking lot? Buy at Amazon and save yourself time and money! Personally, I won't be taking part in Black Friday this year.

Also come back here for your holiday guides!! I'll be preparing those soon! 5 items for each type of person I can think of!

Bioshock for Xbox 360

My word, it's been over a week since I've posted something that I've wanted. It's not that I've forgotten about this site, but I'm working on some really big things, and this just kind of hit the back burner. I'm back though! Just in time for the holiday season, eh? Anyway, today's product is a video game, and quite a popular one at that. It's a great deal too. Today, I'm featuring Bioshock.

Bioshock is a great Xbox 360 game. I've got a funny story about how I got my system, but that's for another day. In Bioshock, you are exploring an underwater utopia that has been ravaged by scientific experiments. Dead corpses lie everywhere, and around every corner genetically altered mutants are waiting to ambush you. As you travel through the city, you must acquire new weapons, upgrade the ones that you have, and use all of your cunning in order to survive. In the end, you must decide whether to exploit everyone in order to survive, or risk everything in order to try to save the survivors?

If you're a first person shooter fan, and you don't have this one yet, you've got to go pick it up right away. Why is that? Well, there is a deal over at Amazon. If you buy Bioshock, you can pick up The Darkness for free!!! That's a buy one get one deal... and you know that's not something you're going to get all the time.

Bioshock is selling for $49.99, saving you $10 right away. Don't forget to pick up the Darkness for FREE. Of course, both are available in my Astore!

Howl's Moving Castle

Going to add more movies to the catalog. I think I have this one, but I'm not sure. I'm going to check right now actually. Ah. Yes I do. Now I just have to find it because I want to watch it tonight. Today's product is Howl's Moving Castle. If you love beautiful movies with a great story, then this is for you. Made by the famous Hayao Miyazaki, I know that you won't be disappointed.

Here's the editorial review for Howl's Moving Castle from over at Amazon:

Like a dream, Howl's Moving Castle carries audiences to vistas beyond their imaginations where they experience excitement, adventure, terror, humor, and romance. With domestic box office receipts of over $210 million, Howl passed Miyazaki's Princess Mononoke to become the #3 film in Japanese history, behind his Spirited Away and James Cameron's Titanic. Based on a juvenile novel by Diana Wynne Jones, Howl's Moving Castle marks the first time Miyazaki has adapted another writer's work since Kiki's Delivery Service (1989). Sophie, a 19-year-old girl who believes she is plain, has resigned herself to a drab life in her family's hat shop--until the Witch of the Waste transforms her into a 90-year-old woman. In her aged guise, Sophie searches for a way to break the Witch's spell and finds unexpected adventures. Like Chihiro, the heroine of Spirited Away, Sophie discovers her hidden potential in a magical environment--the castle of the title. Using CG, Miyazaki creates a ramshackle structure that looks like it might disintegrate at any moment. Sophie's honesty and determination win her some valuable new friends: Markl, Howl's young apprentice; a jaunty scarecrow; Calcifer, a temperamental fire demon; and Heen, a hilarious, wheezing dog. She wins the heart of the dashing, irresponsible wizard Howl, and brings an end an unnecessary and destructive war. The film overflows with eclipsing visuals that range from frightening aerial battles to serene landscapes, and few recent features--animated or live action--offer as much magic as Howl's Moving Castle. --Charles Solomon

Howl's Moving Castle is a beautiful story with great animation. I've watched it so many times I can't even count them. I actually went out of my way to see it once while I was on vacation! Also, if you've seen any of Miyazaki's movies, then you know what to expect. They're all well done, and this is no exception!

Howl's Moving Castle is on sale at Amazon for $21.49. A bit pricey for a DVD, but it is totally worth it. Of course it is available at my Astore!
