You gotta read the fine print

A lesson I need to learn. I just got my message about my earnings from Amazon.com and as an affiliate my personal purchases do not count toward affiliate earnings. I think that is crap but it is in the terms of service and I did not read the fine print when I started buy products through Amazon and thinking I would also get the commission. So instead of having about $78 coming my way I only have $28. Well, I have put the word out to family and friends to make purchases through this site or through The BenSpark but I can’t make out with extra savings by making my own purchases. So if you an an Amazon.com affiliate and think you can save a little extra on your own purchases, I say to you, read the Terms of Service. You are warned.

That being said take a look at Amazon’s new Unbox program.

Tonight Allison and I took Mom and Dad to Fortune House for dinner. It was to celebrate Mom’s birthday. Fortune house is the best place ever for Chinese Food. The people are so nice and they love my Mom. She feels like a celebrity when she goes there. Allison and I love going there too because the food is so fantastic. I tried something new tonight. I got the Kung Pao Beef. I had not gotten that before and was very happy with my choice.

After dinner we swung by Comp USA so I could pick up the iPod cradle from my monitor because I left it on the monitor when I returned it today to exchange it for a new one. That story can be found on my other blog, Flatwater Bookstore.

Today’s photo is of the lamps that Allison and I ordered before we got our nightstands. Do you think they are too big?
