Baskin Robbins Ice Cream Scoop Nigh!!

On April 28th, Baskin-Robbins is hosting their 31Cent Scoop Night. Baskin-Robbins is reducing their prices of ice cream {like last year} to 31 cents to honor America's firefighters. The Baskin-Robbins Community Foundation will make a $100,000 donation to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to honoring fallen fire heroes and assisting their families and coworkers. Participating Baskin-Robbins stores will help raise additional funds for local firehouses by inviting fire departments to the event to collect donations.

Here's the scoop (pun totally intended..how cute is that!!):

WHEN: Wednesday, April 28, 2010 from 5 p.m to 10 p.m.

WHERE: All Baskin-Robbins store locations nationwide. To find the closest Baskin-Robbins location in your area, please visit http://www.baskinrobbins.com/

Continuous Ink System

Oh gosh, you all will love this! I know that ink is SO expensive and so it prevents us sometimes from printing things that we really should print. Well, you don't have to worry about it anymore!

You need to check out this awesome company out of the Tampa area in Florida. They have created, designed, and manufacture a continuous ink system for nearly every printer out there. The basic premise is that you will have a steady supply of ink at a fraction of the cost!

I have two personal friends who have this system. Both can't stop raving about how great this product is and how much money it has saved them!

Check out the site and let me know what you think: http://www.inkproducts.com
