Hattie Garlick has a plan.
For 2013, she decided on a unique New Year’s resolution, to try to raise her son Johnny as cost-free as possible for a year.
That’s right — she’s not going to spend any money for anything that’s specifically geared towards her 2-year-old son.

We’re now deep into New Year’s Resolution time, with the most popular resolution being “to lose weight”.
And what better way to motivate your man (or your woman) than encouraging with a “if you meet your goal, I’ll / You’ll wear THIS” reward?
Hey, for the movie nerd in your life, that’s the best kind of motivation there is! It’s all about gamification.

So you’ve been following Web Watch on Twitter, and while scrolling throu our amusing Tweets, you’ve seen a Tweet from a worldwide celebrity talking about their favorite whatever of the day.
And as a consumer of said item, or as a possible advertiser of a similar (but significantly better one), you’ve often wondered what is in it for the celebrity doing the Tweeting?
Well worry no more.

Web Watch was on a trip recently, and as we often do, we found ourselves chatting with others in the airport.
And we sometimes find ourselves inquiring about people’s destinations and plans. You know, to live vicariously through others ont their adventures.
One couple, for example, was on a month-long tour of Australia and New Zealand, and they were travelling lightly through the airport – as they shipped their luggage overseas to meet them at their hotel upon arrival (it was less expensive overall than flying with the oversized/overweight bags, and they already had confirmation that their bags were waiting for them).
Another person was going to spend a week in San Diego on business, and he was travelling with just his oversized computer bag. He claimed that he had everything he needed in the one case for a week; he prefers to travel with as little complication as possible.

WHAT DO MEN WANT FOR CHRISTMAS?
It’s a commonly-asked question. If you believe retailers, all men want during major gift-giving season are the following:
These are the types of things that get stacked up in the Men’s departments of various stores, and women are expected to buy these crappy-plastic items in the hopes of pleasing their needy, child-minded partners.

The other day, Web Watch was walking through an office when we – literally – stumbled upon an unusual sight: on the floor in the middle of the hallway was a crumbled pair of women’s underwear.
Hallway panties, as it were.
Nobody was around that location at the time, although this was the middle of the morning and the office was thriving in other parts of the building. And yet there that underwear lay, waiting for its owner to come back.

As Web Watch has mentioned previously, we were done with this year’s holiday shopping weeks ago. And let us tell you – there really is something about having that big checkmark off our list to really take a load of stress off of our shoulders.
We can drive by the mall or to the local Target or Wal-Mart and laugh and laugh at everyone else struggling to push their shopping buggy through the crowded throngs while we saunter around with our one or two items that we just happened to need to run in and get.
Like, we CAN go into Home Depot for a pack of light bulbs or batteries, and not be concerned about wasting time wondering what to get Crazy Uncle Dan this year that he won’t injure himself with.

If you’re like Web Watch, you probably did all of your holiday shopping online this year. We were done, paid for, and shipped before December 1st even rolled around.
Shopping online has never been easier, less hassle, filled with more deals than ever before — and its gaining in popularity year after year after year.
