Almost as Good as Good Friday

Friday, November 27th, 2009

Good morning! Today is Black Friday, which is almost as good as Good Friday. Okay, well honestly, there is no comparison: you can’t compare great shopping deals with the day that saved mankind but nonetheless, Black Friday is an awesome day. Today is the day for shopping and a day for great sales. It is the biggest single shopping day of the year which means people are going to be crowding the malls and shopping centers trying to get the best deals on the best gifts for Christmas. In case you weren’t listening on Good Morning America a couple of weeks ago, Wal-Mart, Target, and Toys ‘R Us and Amazon.com are going to be having $9 gift sales running all day long. That means that if books are on your to do list, then you should be buying them today, and online from one of the listed vendors. Hardbacks, paperbacks, and best sellers will all be only $9. Even Medifast couldn’t beat a deal like that!

Also, dvds, toys and games will be offered for $9 at the listed retailers. All of this is in an effort to get people shopping online and in stores and is an awesome way to help us all save money. So take advantage of the great deals (yes even Medifast will be offering savings) and get shopping this wonderful and good Black Friday!

Don’t Forget To Say Grace…And Great Deals!

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

Before every meal, you should be saying grace; and before you go buy anything you should be saying, “great deal”. Now is such an awesome time to find great deals and bargains on all the name brand, and non-name brand items that you want. Retailers are cutting prices and offering you deals of a lifetime. So, if you are about to buy something and you aren’t thinking to yourself, “Man, I’m getting this for a steal,” then you shouldn’t be purchasing it. Chances are that there is another item, either the exact same item or a slight variation of the item availble for a cheaper price somewhere else. For example, if you are looking for designer shoes, don’t settle for the prices that Macys, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, and Saks Fifth Avenue have offer. Shop online at Masseys shoes. They offer everything in shoes for less, saving you not onlly time, but money too.  

Additionally, stores like Maryland Square do the same thing. Thanks to the internet, you never have to guess at the prices at which stores are selling their merchandise. You can easily to price comparisons before you ever step foot outside of your home. In addition, for online stores that don’t have a brick and mortar location, you can go to traditional stores, try on your designer gear to ensure that you are getting the right sizing and go back home and order online for less. So make sure again, that before you are buying anything, you can honestly say that you’re getting a great deal, otherwise you are passing up on God’s financial blessings for you!

Thank God For Savings

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

It is in times like these that we must thank God for each and every blessing. Every morning when we wake up, we are given the blessing of another day. If you are able to get out of bed walking, you are blessed; if you are able to take a warm shower, you are blessed; if you have toothpaste and a toothbrush, you are blessed; if you have clean clothes to put on you are blessed. There is just an abundance of things that we all have to be thankful for everyday; as it says in the bible, “a thousand tongues would not be enough to say thank you”. And yet God continues to bless us by sending us opportunities to save money! This holiday season, everyone knows that money will be tight; so God has inspired big companies like Collections Etc, to not only give good deals, but to give great ones.  It is a mutually beneficial blessing, because in return for lower prices, companies are getting more revenue, which they need in order to stay in business.

Companies like Medifast are offering better deals than ever before on their products so now is the time to take advantage. Prices won’t be this low again for a long time (let us pray because that isn’t a good sign) so it’s important that you take advantage of these deals before they are gone. Of course I am only speaking to those that have the money to spend. Obviously if you don’t, now is the time for you to be saving your money period.
