If you are running a school or preschool, you can get your school equipment or playground equipment from PlayTimeUS.com. They have a variety of playground stuff. They delivered nationwide in US.

By the way, their equipment is very lasting and they do have replacement parts. It is always fun to see children enjoying themselves at the playground. I love those spinners.

I wish such online store is available here.

Recycle At All Times

I support recycling, trying to create less trash. One of many ways is to use rechargeable batteries and charger. I am glad I got a good rechargeable batteries brand. I have been using it for many years.

Besides rechargeable batteries, I sent aluminums cans, junk mails papers, newspapers and other recyclable materials to recycle centers. I am glad that I found one collection center not too far from my home. Let’s recycle to reduce waste.

Guaranteed Issue Life Insurance

Insurance is getting expensive as age goes up. Most insurance do not cover you for life. Now you can and you can get an online quote for life coverage. You also will beguaranteed issue life insurance without any medical questions, tests nor examinations. If you ask me, that’s a great deal!

Now should I surrender my current insurance which only covers me until age 65? I do hope I can get some money back from paying it for so many years.

Oh Libra Cruise!

I thought of treating my family to a 1 night cruise with Star Cruise Libra ship but it turned out to be a disappointment. Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t board the ship yet. I was surveying the price on internet to see how much I needed to spend.

They have standing rates for adult, anyone above 12 and do not need a cabin. It costs $142 per person, all inclusive during low season. The cheapest cabin rates are $202, all in.

Strangely, they do not have children rates! Yes no children rates below 12. The management force you to take a cabin and the rates charged to children is the cabin rates. If 2A and 2C go, it will be $202 * 4! What a rip off!! Ooops, cannot be a rip off if I didn’t make a booking. Children rates are more expensive than adult rates. Only Star Cruise Libra does that.

I wonder why SC management do not provide any children rates? They do it for Star Cruise Pieces and for Star Cruise Virgo, children travel free. Maybe they just want adult on board.

I feedback this to Star Cruise and they hit around the bush. Lastly, they told me that’s what management gave. No valid reason.
