1. FREE HOBBIES Want to learn something new in your spare time? Many local retailers offer free workshops. For instance, you can improve your culinary skills at Williams-Sonoma's free technique classes. At REI, take advantage of free clinics on bike maintenance, backpacking, camp cooking and more (offerings vary by location). Lululemon Athletica stores host free yoga sessions. Apple, Home Depot, Lowe's and Michaels stores offer free classes for adults and kids.

Don't you hate it when you pay for a flight, and then the price drops? Enlist the help of Yapta.com , which tracks your flight's price after you buy your ticket. If the fare drops, it will notify you and help you collect a refund or travel vouchers from the airline. (Note: You will have to pay the ticket-change fee, so Yapta only kicks in if the price drop exceeds the change fee.) Yapta does the same for hotels, too.For rental cars, try AutoSlash.com . The site will continue to check prices until your pickup date. If it finds a lower rate, it can re-book you for free and send you the new details.

Keeping the Fire Alive - Geico Credit Card Application
Keeping the Fire Alive
Married couples just because they are already legally bound to each other does not mean that they should lie low on the dating aspect. No matter how busy you guys may be with work and other stuff, always find time to go out with each other and do the things that you normally did when you were still dating. That’s a great way to keep the fire burning in your marriage! It can also be a great way to ensure that no help for marriage will ever be required!
There are seven days in one week and two of those are non – working days. They can be perfect for you guys to spend some quality time with each other. Also remember, that a good date need not be expensive. It’s all about the company and what you make of the time that you have when you’re together.
