We’ll be having a baby this December. We currently have our own health insurance but I’m not satisfied. We moved to a new place and for some reason, there is only one accredited clinic in our area. This would not do especially after the baby is born. We can’t have a small baby traveling so far in case of an emergency. I wish there is BCBS NC here in our place. They have accredited physicians serving North Carolinian residents all over the state. They also have an interactive website that makes it easier for their clients to search for the nearest specialist for their illness.  If only we have BCBS here in our area then I won’t have a hard time choosing a reliable health insurance provider.

If you’re wondering how you can save money on ink on your inkjet printers then here are a couple of tips for you.

Avoid printing in color. If you can get away with using blank ink then do so. The reason for this is colored ink is more expensive than black ink. Avoid printing in excess. If you can jot it down on your notebook then by all means do it. You can also check your printer settings. If you a draft setting would do for a not-so-important document then take the time to change the setting before printing your document.

Following these sensible advices can help you save on your ink costs.

After studying for more than two decades, the average person has accumulated a lot of textbooks. Normally, we wouldn’t want to give away our used textbooks because 1) we think that we can use it in the future, and 2) because of the sentimental value attached to it. However, it is only practical to give away your used textbooks. All over the world, millions of people don’t have the opportunity to study because of poverty. Some of those lucky enough to go to school despite their poverty don’t have the money to buy textbooks. Donating your used textbooks can help not only one child but many children. It is better to pass on your old textbooks and pass on the knowledge that comes with it rather than keep it in your attic to rot.  If you don’t want to give it away for free then why not sell it for a fraction of its price.  It will still be a great help to the students in need.

Our second hand car is already a decade old.  Dad gave it to us after he bought a brand new car.  It came with leatherette seat covers.  I didn’t like the seat covers at first.  I thought it makes the car too hot because of its dark color.  I wanted one of those car covers made with cloth instead.

We’ve been using the car for a year now and time has definitely changed my mind.  I love having leatherette seat covers after all!  We have a five year old and he can definitely mess up the inside of the car with his dirty shoes.  With the leatherette seat covers, we don’t have to worry about washing it.  We just wipe it with a clean rug and it’s clean again.  We will be having another baby soon and I’m sure there will be a lot of accidents inside the car like spilled water and milk.  I don’t have to worry about that too because leatherette is waterproof and stainproof.

If we’re going to change our seat covers in the future we will still opt for leatherette seat covers but in different color.  We have the solid black design and I want a more stylish two-tone black and silver cover I saw at Seatcovers.net.  Ordering is easy and will arrive in just three weeks.  Installation is easy too.  We can just slip it over the original seats and it’s good to go.

We will be attending a wedding March next year. It’s the wedding of my wife’s friend during her college years. We are excited because it will be held at Subic which is far from Manila but accessible by car. We have never been there and we’re planning to visit a lot of tourist spots there. It’s still four months away but we’re already preparing by looking for groomsmen gifts and of course, a gift for the bride. We want to give something useful that every time they use it they would remember us by.
