    What is the value of a "deal" if you didn't need it to begin with?

      So wise! And, it's no secret that a lot of companies offer deals practically every week. Take a breath, step back, and evaluate the true need. High five!

    Took our son ocean fishing for his 10th birthday.  Gifts of experience elevated over "stuff."  This is the future I want to create for my kids and everyone!
