COSTCO

I decided that when I got here, I would buy a LCD monitor, having gotten used to the one on the laptop. I looked at the 17 and 19 inch models and opted for the 17 inch at $400. I could not see paying another $200 for a 2″ increase as they both had the same resolution. Back in Georgia I might have been able to find a better deal, but this is cheap enough. Actually, after mentioning that, I logged onto MicroCenter.Com (a favorite store) and found that I did quite good on price.

My real estate agent was at COSTCO and had just been snowboarding all morning up on Mauna Kea. Remember I said it had been snowing up there the other day :)

I drove down to Kealakekua Bay today and looked tolwards Captain Cook’s Monument. No dolphin were seen but there were lots of Kayakers in the water.

As mentioned in a previous “episode”, I have talked myself into propogating my new coffee plants rather than buying them. The cost for them will drop by 2/3 that way. Gotta love it! It also appears I have plenty of time to get the new plants ready.

In the meantime I continue to work on the shopping cart and website. I was going to have someone create the site for me, but I still have time due to the constant wait for a closing date. In my quest for cost savings, I found a cart for free. The credit card link and billing system is about the same cost as COSTCO’s and I think I will be ready to sell things soon.
