The Bristol collection "console" aka hall table is one of my favorite picks for the hallway/foyer of a house. The reason I picked this particular table for a hall table is not only that it is affordable but also because it is available in a variety of colors so it will match just about any decor possible in the entryway to a home. The Bristol Collection also offers a matching mirror to place above the hall table if you so desire; however, since this piece site opposite from my front door and it is bad feng shui to place

a mirror exactly opposite your front door I top my table with art instead. This table measures 42" x 12" x 32"h and is available in black, chestnut, red, walnut or white coloring so it truly does match anything! I prefer the black myself; however I know not everyone has my taste in furniture!
If this table doesn’t do it for you take a look around at thecompanystore.com and you are sure to find something that would look perfect in your home. These guys are affordable as well as tasteful and quality products! |

I’m not usually one for linking to electronic gadgets that you’d find on every other man’s gadget blog out there since I tend to specialize in showcasing products aimed at women like myself; however, when I saw the Dash Express Two-Way Internet-Connected Portable GPS Navigator I thought it was the perfect product to showcase because…well I absolutely HATE stopping to ask for directions and a GPS makes it so that I never have to again. This Dash Express Two-Way Internet-

Connected Portable GPS Navigator in particular is amazing because it gets you accurate up to the minute traffic and road closings information by connecting directly from the internet. You can also use this device for a local Yahoo! search and you can interact with it via Dash’s internet website as well to make sure you have all the most recent upgrades in software! If you’re like me and have tried GPS systems before that require you drop a pretty penny on software each year to make sure your road maps are relevant and find that they aren’t up to date anyway you have to check this system out!
The Dash Express Two-Way Internet-Connected Portable GPS Navigator is available from most stores that carry recent technologies and GPS systems, as usual I prefer to pick mine up from Amazon because of the great deals they offer, their free shipping and their great customer service and return policy. |

Everyone needs a vacuum and it just so happens that recently mine broke down and being on it’s final legs I decided it was time to shop for a new vacuum. I had heard many good things about the Dyson vacuums but I just am not in the position to spend $300+ on a vacuum cleaner so I walked right by that section of the store and began to look at Bissel’s cleaners. I chose Bissel because when my black labrador was a pup and had many accidents inside the house I invested in

a Little Green Machine by Bissel and it held up well to the amount of times I used it. After contemplating all of the models I decided on the Bissell 37604 Lift-Off Revolution Pet Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner with Detachable Canister, Silver because it was bagless, it was specially formulated for pet owning households and it has a feature which allows you to detatch the canister from the vacuum itself so it makes cleaning stairs and other hard to reach places a breeze. The best part about this vacuum? It didn’t even cost $200!
The Bissell 37604 Lift-Off Revolution Pet Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner with Detachable Canister is carried in most Target stores; however the one in stores is usually the gawdy bright blue vacuum as opposed to this less gawdy silver model which is available at Amazon with free shipping so over all you pay the same price it’s just a matter of which color vacuum you want! |

People used to tell me all the time that I should give the Gentle Leader a try on my black labrador and I insisted that it was an unhealthy way to lead my dog on walks. It wasn’t until one day when I was near dragged across the street by my over social labrador that I decided that I needed to give the gentle leader a try, after all it’s modeled on the same technique used for leading horses and if you can lead something that huge with that technique then it surely had to work on a dog.

My dog isn’t a dog that misbehaves, he has been trained to listen; however he is no Caesar Milan dog either and he gets excited to meet other dogs and this causes him to pull like crazy, we tried choke chains which he ignored, prong collars which he ignored and harnesses which did nothing but after trying the gentle leader I wonder why we waited so long to give it a try. Although we get funny looks from people who either think it’s a torture device or else a muzzle and my dog is a danger to the neighborhood, it is the most effective walking leash system I have ever tried, and believe me, i’ve tried them all! The Gentle Leader is carried in most pet stores; however, I get most of my pet supplies from Dog.com being that they are much cheaper and of the same quality as the stuff I get locally. If you don’t like to order online just take a look at your local pet supermart and you’ll find the Gentle Leader head collar system there too! |

make for great office gag gifts or desk toys for doctors. These plush microbes each measure about 5-7" and come with an individual instructional card that includes a picture of the real microbe in it’s natural environment and information about the microbe.
I have yet to see these guys anywhere but ThinkGeek.com; however I predict that they will soon be stocked by any novelty gift store such as Spencers, don’t hold me to it though!. |
