Free Dunkin Donuts Coffee

Is there any other PG way to wake up in the morning then to the smell of fresh brewed coffee? How about the invigorating aroma of free coffee? I just received my free bag of Dunkin Donuts coffee earlier this week. Somehow free always tastes better. Click and enter your information and as the website says - begin unbearable anticipation! It didn't take very long at all. Let me know what you think!

Until next time, this is Farmer Jane saying - wake up and smell the free coffee!

Free Things from Walmart

About every month or so I go to the Walmart website to see what samples they are giving away. This month they have a wide selection. There are two different lotions to choose from, feminine products, Nutrish from Rachel Ray, Crest Whitestrips as well as a few other items.

At any given time there are at least 3 items and from what I can tell after a few years of following their samples, they seem to complete rotate about every four to five weeks.

Here is the link to the sample section of the Walmart website.

Until next time - Go get something for nothing!

Collecting Comics



Comics. So entertaining. Such diversity. Heros. Villians. Anticipation. Money. Conventions.

If you have never picked up a comic, try it. No one has to know. Buy one on ebay. There's more to comics than Archie or Spiderman. Sure there are X-Men and The Hulk, but there is so much more than even those seen as of late on the big screen!


I've never been big into comics, but I understand the love of them. Seems I've always had friends that are deep into comics - those that read them... those that collect them... those that are just plain manic over them. They bring such joy and pains to those that gravitate toward the hobby. Not enough time, not enough money, too many choices, so many good things...


Comic enthusiasts I salute your diversion!

Those that think it's just geeky in a bad way - I invite you to pick up a copy of something that strikes your fancy and read it cover to cover. You do and decide you don't like it, well you gave it a fair shake. I'm thinking you'll have  greater sympathy and perhaps even find yourself sneaking into the comic shop at your local mall... it's OK, I'll keep your secret! (Just let me borrow your latest copy to read!)

Find your inner child; pick up a comic!

Get Smart with Lumosity!

Have you been out of school awhile and feel like your brain is slowly decaying? Do you worry about mental diseases and memory loss taking over your life? Have you had a stroke? Are you recovering from migraines or fibromyalgia and need to get those brain cells snapping again?

When I found this website I realized that this is exactly what I absolutely needed to get that fresh from high school feel back to my mental functioning. I just found Lumosity yesterday but I feel that it has potential. Energy drinks and coffee; crossword puzzles and Jeopardy! can only do so much.

I signed up for a 14 day trial. I plan on hanging around for at least a month. They have monthly memberships and yearly memberships.

Lumosity has games that are specially designed and tested to improve a variety of brain functions including working memory, attention, verbal fluency, reasoning, spatial memory and visual cognition.

I have taken a few tests that measure various brain functions right from a psychologist. These weren't ink blots mind you, but highly specialized sometimes silly looking tests that when the results were processed a detailed report could be made. These games seem to be those tests taken one step further. This is something that insurance companies should be paying for to help people who have had strokes or oxygen deprivation get back on their feet.
