My cousin Cindy, who is planning on opening up her own spa, sometime next year, is recently spending her time looking at the items that will be necessary to purchase when the time comes. Using the Internet is certainly helping in her search, while knowing a few people all ready in the spa industry who have given her some leads as well. The saying of “It’s all about who you know and who you are related to” is so very true, which can be a good thing.

Right now she says that she is busy looking at lockers for sale, a subject and a product that most people are not familiar with and not something that most people have used since their school days in the hallways along with their funky smelling athletic locker. School lockers used to be a big part of our lives back then, everything that you owned and needed to get you through the school day was crammed in those way too small steel lockers. For the most part each one had a mirror strategically placed in and decorated with the latest fads, with stickers, pictures, posters and the like.

It never ceases to amaze me how much printer ink we use in this household!  It seems that I have to put in at least one new cartridge every two weeks.  Considering how much time I spend away from home, I think that is a lot of ink!  The cost of ink is quite high when you compare it to the cost of a new printer.  I’m sure that the printer companies are also in the ink business and that they price their printers really low just to reel in the consumer; the real profit is in the ink that the consumer has to buy to keep that printer going!  I feel that is backed up by the fact that most new printers come with at least one cartridge of black, and one cartridge of color ink to get you started, and when you do some price comparisons you see that the price of the printer is not much more than the price of just buying the ink cartridges separately!
