Coupons and discounts: We Shop Deals 4 You

We Shop Deals 4 You

A NEPA-based blog featuring coupons, discounts, and information to save shoppers money.  From the introductory post:

Hello, my name is Jennifer and I've started this blog, We Shop Deals 4 You, because over the past few months I have really "gotten into" couponing and I want to share all of the great deals I've been getting.

Blogger-Candidate Meetup on September 17th

There is another Blogger-Candidate Meetup scheduled for this Friday, September 17, at Rooney's Irish Pub in Pittston, PA.  Rather than try to rephrase everything, I'm just going to shamelessly steal the post from Gort, the organizer of this event:

Blogger/Candidate Meetup September 17th

It was so much fun last time we are going to do it again.


Candidates meet the faces behind the screen names


The next blogger meetup will be Friday September 17th at Rooney's Irish Pub 67 S. Main St. Pittston, PA 18704 starting at 5PM. There is big bar area with tables off to the side and plenty of free parking across the street where the Tomato Festival is held. It's easy to find just drive north on River Street from W-B and it's on the left. Or south from Scranton and it's on the right.


It looks like we will have a good turnout. So far I have received confirmation from about 25 campaigns for Congress, State Senate and State House that the candidate and/or supporters will be attending. That includes Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians and Pastafarians. The statewide candidates have been invited along with office holders not up for election this year and people interested in running for local offices in 2011. Some national figures have been invited and you never know who just might make it. Last time over 150 people showed up.


Our political bloggers from Luzerne and Lackawanna counties will be there along with our readers, commenters and people who are just interested in local politics.


This is an informal mixer with no speeches scheduled. There is no charge for admission.


This event is sanctioned by the Northeast Blogging Council and the Saturday OT Committee and Operatic Society.

With this blog I intend to share my experiences as a self-published author, both good and bad. Hopefully other aspiring writers will read this blog and find some of the information within to be useful.
