Unique And Cheap Flower Delivery

The feeling when you’re given a gift by someone you love is extraordinary – more often than not, you experience a mix of gratitude, pleasure and surprise. While it’s great to receive any gift, no matter what the occasion may be, have you ever thought about how you would like to give a gift back to someone you love? You might wonder whether you have to go out any buy a gift yourself, but thanks to online shopping and flower delivery from Interflora, that may soon become a thing of the past.

It may seem risky given how delicate they are, but getting flowers delivered straight to your door is a great idea, especially if you want to buy some for a friend, relative or lover but don’t have the time to visit a shop in order to buy a fresh bouquet. There are a number of ways in which you can get your flowers delivered after ordering them online or by phone.

You could get the flowers of your choice delivered on the same day depending on the time of day when you ordered them. If this option is unavailable, you could always get them sent on the next day at a time to suit you, whether in the evening or first thing in the morning. It’s also possible to get flowers delivered later than that if it suits your needs.

Aside from being able to choose the time, you can also decide where you want your flowers to be delivered. You could have them sent to the recipient’s workplace, to the venue of a night out such as fancy restaurant or simply at home, where you can pick them up from your door at the crack of dawn and then take them to your partner as they wake up.

However, it may be too long for smaller children to keep their attention span. The movie last about 90 minutes, and we even thought it was a bit  long. It was good for a laugh and if you liked the other Ice Age movies, you'll want to see this one as well.

5 Tips for Saving Money on Household Management Costs

You may have set aside a healthy budget for purchasing your new home, including enough to cover the cost of inspections and closing fees. However, have you thought about how much maintenance and repairs will cost after you buy a house? Owning a home can be more economical than renting, and provides you with a valuable asset. Yet covering unexpected breakdowns can add up to thousands of dollars per year. Reduce the cost of household management by undertaking regular structural maintenance. Although maintenance involves a small initial investment, it can prevent a larger breakdown in the home down the road.

1. Give Your Roof a Layer of Protection

Choosing the right roofing material can add years to your roof's lifespan. Asphalt shingles usually have a shelf life of two decades, but stronger materials such as copper or slate will last for fifty years. You can avoid costly roof repairs by using these types of materials. Maximize your roof's lifespan by coating it with waterproofing materials, and avoid walking on the roof unless necessary. The less pressure that is put on it, the stronger it will remain over time.

2. Annual HVAC Maintenance Checks

Your HVAC system is another area that could be prone to breakdowns and maintenance fees. When you purchase a new home, you should make sure that it comes with a new heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system. When new, HVAC systems should theoretically last for 25 years. However, without regular maintenance, they may only last for 10. To avoid the major expense of installing an entirely new system, take care of your boiler with annual maintenance. These should be cleaned every year to prevent build-up and to catch any problems at an early stage.

3. Replace HVAC Filters Regularly

You can also change the filters in your air conditioner and heating units on your own, to keep them in clean working order. This simple act alone costs very little money and can save you the expense of a more thorough cleaning or replacement later.

4. Protect Home from Wet Weather

Whether you have purchased a home or live in rental properties, you'll want to take the local climate into consideration when managing your household. You can avoid the high cost of water damage if you prepare for it in advance before the rainy season starts. Clear blockages from your gutter to prevent rot and cracked wood that stems from flooding. If you notice any cracks in your ceiling, repair these as soon as possible before a small drip becomes a far larger problem that requires you to replace your drywall.

5. Save on Utility Bills

Maintaining your home's structure with regular checks can help you avoid the cost of major breakdowns. You can also cut down daily expenses by saving energy. Save on utility bills by choosing energy-efficient light bulbs and always turning off the lights when you leave the room, and make sure that your home is well-insulated from drafts coming in through cracks in windows and doors.

It only takes a little bit of extra vigilance to ensure that your home remains in its peak shape over time. This can help you maintain a fully functioning household without the high cost of replacing home appliances or making costly structural repairs.

Clothes Can Be Recycled, Too!

This Thursday, November 15, is America Recycles Day. We all do our best with cans and paper, but did you know that Americans throw away an average of 68 pounds of clothing each year?

A new website, DonateStuff.com, is helping to change this.

You can visit DonateStuff.com to request a pre-paid UPS shipping bag to send in unwanted clothing, shoes, accessories, and linens from anywhere you live in the US, free of charge. Your requested bag(s) are mailed to your home within 24 hours. Just fill your bags and drop them off at any UPS shipping location.

What’s more – your donated items benefit your choice of one of DonateStuff’s national charitable partners: AMVETS, Easter Seals, and The Purple Heart. Items donated through DonateStuff.com are also tax deductible.

Each pre-paid shipping bag can hold an average of 15 pounds – that's about 45 pieces of clothing, shoes, accessories, and other household textiles including handbags, sheets, and towels.  You can request up to three bags at a time, and there is no limit to the number of requests you can make.  So far, DonateStuff is keeping over 470,000 pounds of clothing out of landfills every week!

I hope you’ll celebrate America Recycles Day by cleaning out your closets!  You’ll help others in need and do a green deed.

IAMS HOME 4 THE HOLIDAYS, IN ITS 14th YEAR, SETS OUT TO FIND FOREVER HOMES FOR ORPHANED ANIMALS

This annual pet adoption drive boasts 7 million pets adopted over the past 13 years

The Iams Home 4 the Holidays pet adoption drive enters its 14^th year and remains focused on raising awareness of pet adoption while also ensuring proper nutrition for more homeless pets this year. The program which runs Oct. 1, 2012 through Jan. 2, 2013  celebrates over 7 million pets adopted out since its inaugural year and continues to educate potential pet owners about the wonderful animals available at local shelters and rescue organizations. This year, Iams will again work in conjunction with founding partner Helen Woodward Animal Center, the Canadian Federation of Humane Societies and more than 4,000 animal organizations worldwide to encourage pet adoption.    

“Shelters and rescues around the country are overflowing with great adoptable animals awaiting forever homes,” said Mike Arms, founder of the adoption drive and president of Helen Woodward Animal Center. "Last year a tiny, starved dachshund was brought into a shelter, weighing maybe one pound soaking wet, and very cold and miserable. The shelter helped nurse her back to health and she was adopted by a wonderful couple that fell in love with her and named her Baby. Stories like these show us the importance of promoting pet adoption and how a program like Iams Home 4 the Holidays can make a huge difference in the life of a pet.” 

Canadians can participate in the program in more ways than one. Lend a hand by:

• Donating through Bags 4 Bowls – For those who are already pet parents, Iams will donate one bowl of food to a participating Iams Home 4 the Holidays animal organization for every specially marked package of Iams pet food purchased during the campaign

·         Adopting from a local shelter – Every day more and more animals end up in shelters or in rescue care, and more than 25 per cent are pure breeds*. This is important to keep in mind when deciding to bring a pet into your life, the animal you’re looking for is probably in your neighborhood shelter. To find a participating animal shelter or rescue organization near you, visit iams.ca or facebook.com/iams

·         Volunteering – Shelters need volunteers to do everything from feeding, caring for and keeping rescue animals company, to assisting at events and fundraisers. If you can’t adopt but would still love to help do so as a volunteer

• Visiting Facebook.com/iams – Visit the Iams Facebook page and click to “Like” the page or various messages, photos, videos, etc. For each “Like” comment Iams will donate meals to participating animal shelters

Last year alone, 1.2 million pets were adopted during the holiday campaign and an estimated 5 million meals were donated to pets in need. In Canada alone, over 75,000 animals found forever homes during the campaign. 

"With as many as 36 per cent* of animals euthanized every year in Canadian shelters, this campaign is a wonderful platform to raise awareness about pet adoption and homelessness,” said Barbara Cartwright, CEO, Canadian Federation of Humane Societies. "This year we hope to debunk the myths that surround shelter animals and place deserving pets into the homes of loving families."

For more information about the campaign or to find out how to get involved, become a fan of the Iams Facebook page at www.facebook.com/Iams or visit www.iams.ca. 

Stretch Your Dollar With A $5 Gift To U.S. Troops

With Veterans Day coming up, now's an important time to say "thank you" to military personnel and veterans. Through a charitable program just announced between Operation Gratitude  and SmartphoneTradein.com  anyone with an old cell phone can do just that.

Whether it's a Blackberry, iPhone, Samsung, or other brand, for every cell phone received for trade-in by SmartphoneTradeIn.com, the company will donate an additional $5 to Operation Gratitude, which will be used to send care packages to U.S. military personnel, their families, and veterans.

This is a great win-win for consumers and Operation Gratitude. Consumers can get cash for their old cell phones to buy new ones or boost their holiday spending budgets, and Operation Gratitude gets additional funding for its programs. For instance, an iPhone 4S 64GB in regular condition is currently listed at a $200 trade-in value at SmartphoneTradein.com. So that's $200 in the consumer's pocket, and an additional $5 to help the troops through Operation Gratitude.

The program is an extension of Operation Gratitude's eight year partnership with the founders of SmartphoneTradeIn.com. Since 2006, Operation Gratitude has raised $150,000 through its cell phone collection and recycling program.
