Land’s End Free Shipping Code

I don’t work for Land’s End clothing or anything (just a fan), and I don’t get anything for it, but I thought you might enjoy the Land’s End Free Shipping Code on my personal website, Busymom.net.

“Solution” to what?
It’s essentially streaming video that you set up at home to view whatever you’ve got going on at home that you need to see while you’re away.
That’s all well and good, and, it might be a great application for some […]

Business Travel Guide

I ran across the website Business Travel Logue, and, thought I’d share.
I don’t travel much for work, but, the site looks like it has some useful information about airlines, hotels, entertainment and such.

Paying for college

Since many of us have a career that will help send our kids to college, it might be wise to learn about the process.
Since, as hard as it is to believe, we are about 5 years away from our firstborn going to college, I have to face the fact that I need to educate myself […]
