Review: Prince’s

4 Feb

With Valentine’s Day only 10 days away, many guys will definitely run into cold sweat at the cold hard cash that we have to spend to please our other half. If you are the typical guy that feels that flowers on Valentine’s Day is a must-have for girls, look no further than Prince’s. Prince’s is my florist of choice and I find their prices to be reasonable and value for money. They are amongst the cheapest and yet well packaged selection that I have seen so far. Some online florists actually dare to charge an extra surcharge of around $60 for Valentine’s Day period delivery. Prince’s deliver free of charge for two time slots which is 9am – 5pm and 5pm – 11pm respectively. While the time range is really wide, as long as my girl get her flowers, I don’t care that much. If you want to have the flowers delivered at a specific time slot, be prepared to pay $20 or more.

When buying from Prince’s, remember to register for membership which entitles you to 5% off non-promotion selection and 5% rebate points to claim on future purchases. Currently, Prince’s is having a promotion for early orders for Valentine’s Day period. The discount is up to 20% and definitely looks better and more worthwhile than many other bloodsucking florists. Go order some roses for her now! She will definitely look better with a bouquet of 20 roses instead of 3 pathetic roses…

LiveJournal – FlowerPatch

27 Jan

I came across FlowerPatch through a MSN personal message of my friend so I decided that it is about time to do another short review with Valentine’s Day approaching right after Chinese New Year. The first glance on the web page is the quality of the images used on the website. The closer shots are taken with some blur so it makes the flowers look not as attractive. For the bouquets of 1 or 6 stalks of roses, FlowerPatch did not showcase the photos of the full bouquets so it is harder to judge. The bouquets for 24 stalks of roses looks good but the price definitely turned me off. However, I guess that’s the price you have to pay to give flowers on Valentine’s Day.

The lilies photos looks not bad but I think the packaging of the bouquets can be improved. There are no photos for their sunflowers so I can’t comment on that. Prices-wise, FlowerPatch is quite average for the bouquets they are offering. Personally, I will prefer Prince’s since my experience with them so far has been excellent.

Protect Gadgets With invisibleSHIELD

23 Jan

Most people I know has a mobile phone at the very least and a good many of them are iPod owners as well. ZAGG Inc. is offering a 50% discount on their usually pricey products. invisibleSHIELD is made from a material that was created to protect the edges of military helicopter blades so that’s how tough your invisibleSHIELD will be. I have seen the demo videos on their website as well. So far, it is very impressive just by throwing a mobile phone protected by invisibleSHIELD into a box of screws & nails and shaking the box around. The result? No scratch or damages done. You can get the discounted prizes through http://www.zagg.com/showspecial. By using that link, all of the prices shown will be the discounted prices. Grab a piece before the discount ends! I managed to get my order in a few minutes ago for my iPod Nano 2nd Gen.

Did I mention that invisibleSHIELD carries a lifetime warranty and also free international shipping? However, international shipping will take a longer wait unless you want to switch to the faster UPS. If your piece of invisibleSHIELD becomes scratched, torn or damaged, you can send it back for replacement. There’s also a 30-day Money Back Guarantee included though shipping cost is not refundable. For people who need protection of other gadgets, ZAGG offers custom orders as well especially for newer mobile phones or laptops.

Hollywood Fashion Tapes

14 Jan

Have you ever bought a really nice dress and was preparing to wear it for an event, only to discover at the very last minute that the dress is so much more low-cut than that time you first tried it on? Happens to me all the time! Well, I have learnt to be smart, and now’s your turn.

Hollywood Tapes

I present you:

Hollywood Tapes

Hollywood Fashion Tape is no-fuss clear adhesive tape, which is really so much more convenient and useful compared to safety pins. Don’t even get me started on my experience with safety pins – They just spoil the appearance of my outfit and the outfit itself. I have encountered enough embarrassing situations about wardrobe malfunction (there’s no Nipplegate incident, fortunately) such as having my friend nudging my friend (who was sitting beside me), who whispered to me that my scotch-tape was showing. Yeah, go on and laugh. I have attempted to put safety pins, scotch-tape (folded so that the tape stick both ways) and even having those thick green double sided tape taped onto my skin. Ouch!

Those days are over!

Each strip of Hollywood Fashion Tape has a removable backing on each side. All you have to do is to peel off one side of the tape, press the tape onto the area you want to secure, remove the other backing and stick it onto the other surface. The tape’s adhesive is hypo-allergenic so no worries on getting rashes, but do be slow and steady when removing the tape as the adhesive is really sticky. I gave some strips (from my second pack) to my girlfriend to secure her tube, and she immediately exclaimed, “So secure! Why didn’t you give me earlier?” after sticking it on.

What are you waiting for? Put an end to all the embarrassing moments!
