Drivecare, warranty for used cars!

"We need a car mom!" I often hear this from my kids but I don't see why we need one. Vienna has the most efficient transportation from buses, to trams to trains for local and regional use and even European rails. I have always been comfortable going about the city with the Wiener Linien. I always get to where I should by simply looking at the map provided at the stops, the help offices are very willing to help too.

Whenever we passed by the used cars dealers near our place, the kids would, as if on cue, point one and tell me "Look ma, it's just 4000euros, it's not much!" True, there are cheap Volkswagen used car that one can have for as low as 4000euros or a Ford for 9,800 eurso, but the maintenance and the insurance you'd pay, the changing of tires and all the headaches included makes me forget the idea of owning a car without batting an eyelash. Then Drivetime has launched the DriveCare program warranty for used cars. Including a 3 year 36,000 mile warranty on used cars, a first in the industry indeed!

The warranty package is available on all vehicles purchased on or after December 1, 2009. A warranty for 36-months/36,000-miles on major mechanical and other electrical components. In addition to this they are also giving complimentary oil changes, roadside assistance and more.

With such, I think not only me would be having second thoughts but those who are wanting to buy a used car as well. I have, however, already forgotten how to drive, so I think it's up to the hubby to decide on this. ;)

Home Plans

I have always planned a renovation of my mom's house. I wanted a new and bigger kitchen complete with a stove and baking range. :D I've been scouting on some contractors and I was lead to the house plans and more website. I did not only learn of the many house plan designs available in many styles, I got much better ideas of what would fit my mom's one story house.

The website further have other projects in detail like cabin plans, deck and gazebos, fences, children's playhouses as well as indoor projects like furniture and storage units.

I am impressed how detailed the website is with all the house floor plans, I mean I enjoy playing Simcity because I get to design my own place, but housefloorplans do it for real!

Check out this kitchen layout from their blog and be inspired! I just couldn't resist sending my mom this photo I got from the HousePlansandMore.com website.p

Face (creme de la creme)

A while back I blogged about oatmeal facial mask and how it makes your face really smooth and soft. I however, cannot guarantee its effectivity to everyone. It is true that each of us have different types of skin, we have different tolerance to certain topical products, homebased or not. It is wise to know which organic face cream is worth your money...to give your face a special pampering that you yourself will love.

What?

I always laugh when I check our Outlook inbox and  find those spam emails about size enhancer...you know...stuff like vigrx and those. I know it's too sensitive a topic and I'm not open about it but what is it with manly egos anyway? I guess it's true what they say, men think not with their brain...whoever developed this kind of thing is a real insecure. lol.

The ad reads click here to lose weight fast! Eager and willing you click on it only to learn that it's just the usual info-website that tries to sell stuff, with random comments from people who have no bloglinks...you realize you've been there just that, the blogname is different....bingo! It's just another website like the acai berry pills....and you wonder why you always get attracted to click on them even if you already knew, it's just a trick...
