Holidays
Still looking for a few Christmas gifts? These eco-friendly
stocking stuffers make great last-minute additions. You have just a
few more days left to order them online, and you can also find
these items--or something very similar--in many local stores. If
you need a large stand-alone gift, just rescue a pretty basket from
your local thrift store, add your favorite items from our gift
list, and top it all off with a bow.

Shop Smarter
I will freely admit that I am one of the cheapest people I know. As such, I often shop for used items on Craigslist (and the like) when other people would buy new. There are just certain things that are hard to justify the expense of new when they haven't changed in forever and they were made to last in the first place.
At the top of the list of these things are cars and durable goods like appliances and tools.

Loose Change
If you have been following along, you may have seen my recent review of the
Troy-bilt electric garden cultivator. I wasn't just tilling for the hell of it, or even for the sake of writing the review. Nope. I have a little vegetable garden, even though it's one of my least favorite food groups. I grow them, but it's my wife who enjoys them. I eat them, but I'm not going to lie and say I like it.
Of course, now you're wondering why? Why would a guy who races
motorcycles and
cars, and does his own
plumbing and
roofing want to dig, water and pull weeds, especially when he doesn't even like vegetables?
