Buy These And Say Goodbye To Bread Clips

Unplug the fax, and the clock turns off.  Unplug the printer and the hard drive shuts down.

The solution sounds easy-- label the wires dummy.  But how?

Do you know how long we saved those plastic bread bag clips just because some lifestyle guru told us to?  And then the bag closures sat around in our tool kit for 2 years gathering dust until we ate enough bread to label our own office.  And then we never labeled anything.

Now, we guess that's our fault.  But who new we could never find a permanent pen with a sharp enough point to label those little suckers.  So, years of hunting and gathering went into the trash.

Well, those days are now gone because we've discovered these pre-printed ID labels for the legions of plug-in's around the crib.

Eric Stromer Gives Us His Home Tool Must Haves

Eric Stromer, the hunky carpenter from TLC's television show Clean Sweep, visited the Rachel Ray Show today to showcase do-it-yourself tips for non do-it-yourself'ers.

He's also hawking his new book, Do It Yourself Family.

Eric's must-have for your home:

• A power-drill.  Ditch the screwdriver.
• A tool bucket.  Store your gear 'round a barrel

Clean Sweep would help hurried homeowners de-clutter their junky mess, in a two or three day process, with a three-person team including Stromer, a host, an organizer and an interior designer.

GE To Begin Consumer Financing For Storage and Cabinet Dealers

You've always wanted that sophisticated New American Closet or S-T-R-E-T-C-H Garage.  To get it, would you finance?

GE Money's Retail Sales Finance unit is hoping you will.  A new consumer credit program for Phoenix, AZ-based Slide-Lok will help more than 100 garage storage and cabinet dealers nationwide to offer consumer financing.  The dealers will offer the financing through General Electric's Projectline private label credit card program.

We assume they're hoping more consumers will shape up instead of shipping out.  Would you take advantage of such offers?
