Always Update Your Links
If you run an internet business based on websites and in particular affiliate ads you need to stay ontop of your ads and links. I had some sites that likley lead to proper payday loan ad leads but failed to update the links so maybe I lost some revenue. My
Coon Rapids Pawn America site went neglected for far too long also another link in Minneapolis to a Minnesota Pawn America page was also not up to date. I've now updated them to use the new affiliate links but I know i'm at least six months behind. Moral of the story. Always keep your links up to date, especially the way profitable links like those for payday loans and pawn loans.
New TLC Show Family Flip
Last night I saw a new great house flipping show called Family Flip. TLC pits two families against each other to flip a house and compete to see who gets the most profit. The families are in separate states and even have non-similar real estate to work with. I'm not sure if
Family Flip is a one time show or a weekly series, it seems to be built off of the Flip That House like of real estate shows. I cought Family Flip at 10:00pm ct but my schedule shows it being shown many times this week both morning and in the evenings on the TLC channel.
Avoiding Eviction
I was reading the for rent section in the StarTribune today and in the Q&A section there is a tenant that believes the landlord may be out of business. Since no one showed up at the business downstairs the tenant had not yet paid the rent for the previous month. The writer of the article smartly pointed out that even if the landlord never asks for the rent the tenant should get the rent paid to avoid an eviction. I can see where the tenant doesn't believe they are withholding the rent since it was never picked up but if the lease states that the rent is due on the first an eviction can proceed even if the tenant has misunderstood. Smartly the writer advised the tenant that to
avoid eviction they should read their lease for the information on where to send the rent and to do so by registered mail to ensure they have proof of the rent payment.

Restaurant Review Gasthaus Bavarian Hunter
My sister had her reception at Gasthaus Bavarian Hunter in Stillwater Minnesota. The restaurant is a cool place, I could see visiting for a reception, fine dinner or just a beer after a nice bike ride. The parking lot is huge so there's room for everyone. Out back there is a nice tiered wood deck where you can dine casually outdoors. Out front is a nice social area that goes in to the lower level, perfect for wedding receptions. The German beer offered at Gasthaus Bavarian Hunter makes for a great opportunity to taste various high quality German beers. Just note asking for a large isn't like Applebees, you'll get a massive mug I believe in Munich they call a mas. The food at Gasthaus Bavarian Hunter is awesome. During the reception we had excellent chicken, flavorful beef and awesome potatoes, rice and vegitables. Out back you'll find a pen with a goat, chickens, ducks and a huge goose. All this combined makes visiting Gasthaus Bavarian Hunter a unique experience for everyone. You can find Gasthaus Bavarian Hunter at 8390 Lofton Ave N Stillwater MN 55082.

PayDay OK Payday Loans
I recently had a tennant that was short on the rent. I gave them an extra two weeks to pay but they just couldn't come up with the money. I didn't want to do it but I told them if they didn't have the full rent by the 15th i'd have to ask them to leave or they would be evicted. As it turns out the county has a crisis program that provided the last $500 of the rent that they needed to pay. But for the county they might have had some serious issues. I didn't mention it to them but another option for a short term loan would have been to check out PayDayOK.Com which provides a $500 dollar loan until the next payday. This can be a great way to get some emergency cash until payday. Basically
PayDayOK offers online payday loans that can usually be funded in 24 hours. They recently changed thier name to PayDayOne but their level of service and easy to use website remain the same. There are some critics who would say that Payday Loans charge too much interest. I think they aren't considering the value that someone who needs $500 overnight or they are out of a house places on the ability get that fast cash. As in all things in life, that person has to be responsible and
pay back the payday loan as soon as possible to incur the lowest possible cost.
Ford Dealers
Long ago I started a blog about various Ford Dealers. I wanted folks to know what I thought of Ford dealers around the country and by visiting their websites I sure wasn't finding it. If you look at the websites of many Ford dealers you'll find fluff and not alot of critical information. Many times just to get past the coupons and flash movies to see the hours of operation you'll need to click many times past the ads. In my opinion these
Ford Dealers just don't get the web and throw up whatever website is done for them. My Ford dealer websites give just the core information, a short review and address and phone number info and many times hours of operation. In my opinion, if Ford dealers just offered the basics they'd draw plenty of customers who otherwise may turn off their browsers for other websites.
Ford Employee Discount On Again!
My favorite time of the year, Ford Employee Pricing time. For the past few years Ford has offered a once per year sale called the Ford Employee Discount sale. What is this? Well simply you and I can shop for that Ford car or truck and pay the same price that employees pay. Hence the name Ford Employee Discount. Now this year the sale ends June 30, but in previous years Ford has extended the sale into the next couple months but this year it's anyones guess. If you've been thinking of getting maybe a smaller car or maybe your one of the few who want a new SUV you won't get a better price than what you'll find at your Ford dealer during the
Ford Employee Discount sale.
Great Movie The Slasher
If you ever wanted to see some inside scoop on the way a car dealer works, check out the movie called The Slasher. This is a great documentation about a guy named Michael Bennett who is known in the car dealer industry as "The Slasher", he is flown in and has obnoxious sales commercials on the radio and TV with a chainsaw adversiting sales where he slashes prices. In this documenatary they follow the slasher as he prepares for a sale at a Toyota dealer in Memphis. The staff at the
Toyota dealer seem to just turn over the Toyota dealership and inventory to the slasher as he preps and then sells the cars. They get folks in to the dealship advertising the $88 car one of which is sold each day of the sale. I've heard of these promotions and it was really cool to see how they work in the real world. Very good movie i'd highly recommend watching it.
