Anna @snowy22315 My husband is a very slow eater. I am trying to slow down because I hate to finish everything a lot before he does.

A Feature I Love

Amber @AmbiePam (97383) • United States 12 Apr

I don’t know what kind of smartphone you have, and some of you don’t use a smartphone at all. What I love about having an iPhone (got a steal on that sucker) is that when someone texts you a picture you just put your finger on...

Sometimes, negotiating does pay off!

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (42942) 10 Apr

For those of us who used to have cable TV, or maybe you still have it, you know that most of these companies are rather sneaky--they raise the bill constantly unless you have negotiated for a better price and have managed to snare...
