Fueling Up!

If any of you are anything like me you’re always on the hunt for a good burger. There’s not to many places around us were I can find a burger worth noting. When we lived in the Rochester, NY area a few years back there was a few places I would recommend, and not those chain stores.

One place I would consider getting a burger is at the ampm convenience stores. These guys are more than just a place to fuel up your car, you can fuel up yourself with just about anything you can think of. They have just about everything you want and need to be satisfied, and even satisfied everyone traveling with you. They have sandwiches, burgers, pizza, and treats for everyone, and of course fountain drinks. And lets not forget the coffee, every pit stop needs a good cup of coffee to fill you up. The ampm really isn’t like those other convenience stores, or food chains. You get hot foods prepared on-site, and a fully stocked condiment bar to make your food your way. Anyway, check out my picture of a burger, just the way I like it. If you have an ampm in your area you know what I’m talking about. Next time you visit them take a picture of your burger and post it on their face book page, just click on the secret menu tab on their Facebook page. You know what, just click on over to their Facebook page and see what others are posting, might make you rush out and get one, so be warned.

FAO Schwarz!

What in the world happened to FAO Schwarz? I had no idea they filed for bankruptcy in 2002, and then again in 2003. Then I read that not to long ago they were sold to Toys R Us Inc. I’m not sure how will Toys R Us will do with them, or if they even fit in with them. FAO Schwarz only has 2 locations, that I know of. One is their flagship store in NYC, and the other one is located in Las Vegas. They also run a catalog business, which up till today I thought they where doing very well. I guess their main customers, the rich folk aren’t buying their toys anymore. I once went to their store in NYC and saw race care their listed for over $25,000, a kids race car. Their toys are over priced, only the rich shopped there. Now with Toys R Us taken them over maybe we’ll see prices come down to where everyone will be able to afford that crap.

Movie Fun At Home!

Are you tired of paying those huge movie ticket prices, I am? Just to take a family of four out to the movies could cost well over $100 dollars. In today’s economy who has that much money to waste at the movies. So with that being said I would recommend to every parent out there to want until the movie you want to see comes out on DVD or Blu-ray, that’s what we do. One new movie that just came out that your kids will love is Alvin and the Chipmunks – The Squeakquel, which you could buy it now on DVD, Blu-ray and digital download. I read that you can get it in a double DVD Pack that includes “The Squeak Along,” a bonus disc, which as more music, mayhem and all-new sing-alongs. You can also visit their site where you can do More Munk Mayhem. I should say that when visiting their site make sure you have your volume turned down, that’s all I’m saying about that, I did like it. So you see what I’m saying, wait until these movies come up on DVD and Blu-ray, they offer so much more for your money. And don’t forget, you’re home, so make a night out of it, way more fun for everyone, and less stress.

Good Times!

Tonight I feel like a change is in order. Lately I’ve written a lot about what’s been happening in our economy. And you know what, it’s kind of bringing me down. So I have deceided to start planning our next vacation to Disney. This should help me look forward to something besides the everyday crap that happens. Planning a vacation always makes things a little better, for us anyway. I think this year we’re going to try to sneak in a few extra days, wasn’t ready to leave last year after 7 days. This year I think we’re going to try to take 9 full days, should be fun.
