I could've been... well, not a contender, maybe, but certainly had a few more bucks in my pocket.

If only I had thought of this!

As you probably know if you read this blog a lot, you know that I recently bought a new computer, and if you are alive, then you know that new computers are EX-PEN-SIVE.

(That's my way of drawing out that word to emphasize it. Kind of like when your mom would call you as a kid and if she used all your  names even the middle one, you knew you were in trouble and started figuring out ways to blame your brother.)

I knew that computers were expensive.  But what I didn't know is that I could've used the discount shopping 2013 site Best Online Coupons to save on money.

I've used Best Online Coupons A LOT -- I love saving money and they are great for that, a site that has discounts on pretty much everything you think you need, and all the things you actually need, too. (I've learned that those groups rarely actually overlap).

What I never thought to do until recently was to check that site first, no matter WHAT I'm shopping for.  So when I was in the market for a laptop, I could've gone to the site and coupons and deals to get me discount laptops and computer deals, as much as $500 dollars off a laptop!

Or:

FIVE-HUN-DRED-DOL-LARS!

I'm not sure I divided those syllables up right, but you get the point.  The point being that I don't use Best Online Coupons enough, and I already use it all the time, almost.  So I've sworn to check it out more often, and this is how I can do it: when I need something, for real, or I'm going shopping for something I 'need', I'm going to check out Best Online Coupons first and see what I can get there.  And when I've got spare time, like now, I'll go browse through the site just to see what the ever-changing deals are and how I might benefit from them.  Between the discounts, free stuff, free shipping deals, and other money saving ideas, I'll not only get all the stuff I want, but with all that money I'll be saving, I'll be SUPERRICH.  Don't worry: we'll still be friends.*

*We WON'T. JEEVES, HAVE THE GUARDS ESCORT THIS PERSON OFF THE GROUNDS.

I'm big into bargain hunting. Got my new laptop for $279. The "only" problem with it is Windows 8, which is a huge problem, but after almost a year, most of its apps work reliably and it does let me download stuff and go to different websites besides google.
So did Verizon ever pick up your non-functioning super-duper-non-antenna thing?
