LG DoublePlay™ Phone

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of LG DoublePlay™ for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

If you like the convenient of QWERTY keyboard, Swype or touch screen the LG DoublePlay™ is the perfect phone for you.  This phone is available exclusively at T-Mobile. This phone works simultaneously.  It means that you can text, check your email while browsing the web at the same time.  That makes your mobile activities easier than ever. 

The LG DoublePlay comes with a 5- megapixel camera with a video recorder.  It makes sharing photos or videos with your family and friends a lot easier.  The Android system allows you to access thousands of apps at your fingertips.  The device also gives users the ability to send and receive texts from either PC or tablet.   It also gives you the ability to quickly create group chats on-the-go. 

I don’t have a working cell phone at the moment.  When I send text messages to my family in the Philippines, I use the web.  Though I spend a lot of time online every day, I use either my desktop or laptop.  My hubby is thinking about dropping our car phone and gets a cell phone instead.  I will suggest to get a LG DoublePlay because it is a very handy device for keeping in touch with my family and friends and for updating my blogs. 

Now, I do this with my laptop, which takes up a lot of space in my bag and is much bigger than me.  Can you imagine what it would be like for a 4’11 woman carrying a 17 inch laptop?  If I had the LG DoublePlay, life would have been so easy. What about you? Would this phone makes a different in how you engage with social networking sites or would you send more texts with the convenient of keyboard? Leave me a comment below and let me know!

Samsung TVs

TVWe bought a 37 inch LCD HDTV a couple of years ago for our living room. I keep bugging my hubby that I want to put it in the bedroom and buy a bigger one for the living room. We are thinking about changing our satellite provider over to a local cable company for our TV viewing needs so we will need to get our house rewired at that time.

When we do that, we will probably buy a new TV for the living room and move the one we have to the bedroom. We have been looking at several different brands of TVs including Vizio, Sanyo and Samsung but haven’t made up our minds yet. I like the samsung TVs, especially the 70 inch one but for $11,000, we probably won’t be buying it anytime soon.

HDMI Cables

My hubby and I recently bought a new laptop. We made sure that it has the capability to connect to his big LCD desktop so we bought a laptop that has HDMI connector. We have not bought HDMI cables yet neither tried connecting dvi to hdmi cables. We might give it a try one of these days because we have other important things that need to be taken care of soon but it is nice to know where we could buy those kinds of cables online.

Save Money on Your CellPhone Bill with Straight Talk

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Straight Talk for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

I am a thrifty shopper and that frugality carries over to most of the services that I use including our phone service.  I like the idea of having a cell phone but I don’t want to be locked into a contract and be restricted to a certain plan.  In the Philippines, where I come from, I could buy a cell phone and then separately purchase minutes according to how much I needed, there were never any other charges involved. 

Straight Talk plans are as good as what I had in the Philippines.  You can cut your cell phone bills in half and you don’t have to be on a contract to get everything you need in a cell phone.  There are no contracts, no surprise bills and no credit checks. Straight Talk has great nationwide coverage, excellent reception and only uses trusted phone manufacturers like LG, Motorola, Kyocera, Nokia and Samsung.  You can now get Android on Straight Talk as well. 

Straight Talk unlimited monthly service is only $45 a month.  That includes calls, text, picture messaging and web.  411 calls are also included at no extra charge and since there are no activation fees, there are also no termination fees. 

When I Call a friend in the Philippines, I will only have to pay for the minutes that I use.  If we do decide to get a new cell phone plan, it will definitely be the prepaid no contract kind.  I don’t want to have to endure a repeat of my hubby’s bad experience with a cell phone service contract.  He felt sucked in Hook, line and sinker after he signed up for a what was supposed to be great service but later found out it was terrible.

I Want Another Digital Camera

My hubby bought me a new digital camera last spring just before my trip to the Philippines. It was on sale for $60. It has more pixels than the last one we had that cost four times as much. It is a good camera but has some minor issues. I don’t know if it is the camera that has some issues or me. Probably me because I am still trying to get used to it. Anyway, I am thinking about buying a new digital camera if I can get a good deal. I am looking for samsung digital cameras this time.
