Currently in central US to visit friends and relatives from this side of the States. One thing I've noticed is that their mailbox is no different from ours back home. It is also full of "junk mail" and mail that nearby stores, restaurants and specialty shops send.
What would we do without shopping coupons! :)
I like the fact that it does save money for the home. Some even going as far as 40% off the list price. Not a bad idea to get those scissors out and start cutting away what's interesting.

Well meaning friends and relatives would be the most likely source. Let me tell you what the top ten myths are ...
I think nothing says "Go Green" more than a product that saves the greens we have left on earth. I've seen this JavaLog while watching Discovery Channel tonight. I am very impressed. This product alone must have saved millions of acres of trees. Sure, everyone needs to warm up and enjoy the crackling fire by the fireplace during chippy winter nights. One just needs to remind himself that everytime he throws a 5 lbs. log into the fire, it contributes to the environment... whatever left we have of it.
