A 'wish' changes nothing. A 'decision' changes everything!


Oh, how I wish I have not created my wish list at buy.com! All those things on my wish list were entered purely on impulse, without a real plan or purpose. May be that is why my wish list kept growing. There was no way to shorten the list by marking off some of the things as ‘bought’.

I think it is not too late to remember this proverb: A 'wish' changes nothing. A 'decision' changes everything!

So, I decided to crop the list down to bare necessities and proceeded to find if there is any special discount sale is announced for them at buy.com where there is always some sort of discount is given to all the products.

Just then, my son peeped in and saw my list that included a stand for my laptop, McAfee virus protection and a cordless bug zapper. He gave me a look as if to ask whether I am sane. I followed his gaze and saw he was looking at the Gordian’s Knot Brainteaser Challenge among other things.

Blue Donuts at buy.com


Not only do I depend on buy.com for my computer peripheral needs but I also don’t fail to watch their funny videos to keep my light mood updated and it also makes me aware of new products online.


If I remember correctly, my last best buy from buy.com was a 4 GB flash drive for just $ 14.47. Why I call this as the best buy is because it generally sold at about $20 elsewhere. The shipping cost is zero. Yes, it is shipped free of cost even today. So hurry.


Now about the funny videos- watch a lively video clip showing the cooking of beautiful Blue Donuts in buy.com

Here is an image of exotic Blue Donuts taken from Yahoo! images.

I never tasted a French Wine.

I could confidently say that Indians have not been exposed to the tastes of wine. All we could get is some cheap, very cheap wine which when tasted will make you decide that wines are garbage. One would stick to hard liquor and not bother with wines anymore.

But of all the people, my son who had his first taste of wine recently, directed me to Coupon Chief, a popular web site of discount coupons from where I can find out the best wines or for that matter, best of any products.

Ok son, thank you.

Yes, he was right! Coupon Chief offers discounts for a great range of products. Looking at the range, I forgot that I am looking for a good wine and in fact could not decide on what I really want. Everything was tempting me to buy; for instance I was fascinated by the varieties of apparels on display.

Since my son was watching my activities, I reluctantly compromised for wine over apparel. Next time, I should remember to shop online when my son is not around.
