Use the PaidByCash card online just like a credit card

February 19, 2007 by Chris

Don’t have a credit card, but want to purchase services or products online? Now you can with the new PaidByCash virtual Mastercard.

For the longest time we didn’t have a credit card. We’d misused ours in the past and had poor credit from being behind in payments. When our credit was finally ok again we still didn’t rush to get a credit card because we were afraid we’d fall into the trap of using it for things we didn’t have the money to pay for on our own.

As a result of this we missed out on opportunities to purchase items online at lower prices than in retail stores, and we couldn’t sign up for various internet related services like online games easily either. Now we have a credit card, but I still like the idea of a Virtual Mastercard as I can pay for items online right away with cash that I’ve already deposited into the cards account.

That’s right. With the new PaidbyCash service you can add money to your account and use the card online just like you would a credit card. The only major difference is, as I said, that you are paying for your purchases right away rather than on credit because you are using cash that you already put into the card.

This service will come in handy for those that like to play online games but couldn’t in the past because of a lack of credit card, and for those that want to purchase items at lower online prices too.

The PaidByCash card is accepted by pretty much every internet retailer, so you don’t have to worry that you’ll only be able to use it in a few places.

Check it out for yourself and see if you think this is great idea too.

Handmade carpet sale at Tufenkian

February 15, 2007 by Chris

When I first moved to Toronto from my hometown of Brantford it was to go to college in order to become a jeweler. Yes, I did graduate and was a jeweler for several years before changing careers.

I lived in “co-op” with several other students. In other words I rented a room in a boarding house set up by the college for it’s students. Man that was a party house. But I digress.

I won’t go into the details of how I ended up having a beautiful Persian carpet since it’s a long story, but I did, and it was one of the only real design features of my room while I lived in the boarding house. Later when I moved in with my girlfriend, who soon became my wife, the carpet came with me.

Unfortunately the carpet went through a lot of wear and tear over the years – mostly in that old boarding house I lived in, and when my wife and I moved to the house we now own we got rid of the carpet.

Now I’m looking at the handmade Tibetan and Armenian carpets at Tufenkian. I see that there is a Los Angeles, New York City and Scottsdale Arizona Carpet Sales. It’s Tufenkian’s semi-annual rug sale.

The quality of their hand made carpets is superb, and I’m seriously considering ordering a new rug online. I really miss our old carpet and my wife liked it too. I also found out that if we register online at the site we can get an additional 10% off. That sounds like a pretty good deal – a sale and a discount on top of that just for registering.

Hmmm I think I’d better start to seriously look at these carpet designs.

Great deal on T-Mobile Phones

February 13, 2007 by Chris

I don’t know if you’ve heard of Wirefly.com yet or not but it’s an online company that sells cell phones and wireless service plans for all of the popular cell phone providers and cell phone services.

Since they carry such a large quantities of cell phone brands and styles they are able to offer their customers great deals on a regular basis. One of their current great deals is on T-Mobile phones, but it’s for a limited time only.

So what’s the deal? Well, when you order a new T-Mobile service plan online you’ll get a $50 rebate. It’s that a fantastic deal? This deal is only applicable if you are purchasing a $34.99 / month + service plan and it’s only available to Wirefly.com customers until March 31st.

You can get many of the most popular mobile phones with a T-Mobile service plan. For instance you can get two different colors of Motorola Razr cell phones, a T-Mobile MDA or choose from three different types of Blackberry. I’m sure there are more cell phones that include the T-Mobile service plans but the cell phones that I’ve listed are some of the most popular.

If I was in the market for a cell phone at this time I’m sure I’d be visiting the wirefly site and checking out this T-mobile deal. It sounds pretty good doesn’t it?
