I haven’t seen the prize pools yet for trick-or-treat bags, but I thought you were gonna mention the daily quests feature that just came out. A lot of the weekly prizes people are getting are very expensive and rare items including rare item code prizes that haven’t been available for 15+ years.
Loving the wealth redistribution.
god i wish i wouldn't have to explain the intricacies of the neopets economy to you guys to give the full context for this but. the new neopets team that took over from jumpstart pledged that they were going to curb the inflation of rare items, which is great because a lot of rare items are worth literally hundreds of millions of neopoints, they are unbuyable unless you've been playing actively for 20 years. they did this earlier with a site festival that included random loot boxes, some of which had Unbelievably Fucking Rare And Precious items worth 200 million neopoints apiece.
well.
today they have gone a step further. by releasing this year's trick-or-treat bags. and having the trick-or-treat bags be stuffed to the brim with unbelievably fucking rare stamps, weapons, paint brushes, defense magic, and other unbuyables. (all prohibitively expensive and in-high-demand types of items.)
jellyneo, the premier neopets website, has recorded prices of some items plummeting from 2,000,000 neopoints to 4,000 neopoints IN THE LAST THREE HOURS. this is when most people haven't even heard about the event or OPENED THEIR BAGS YET.
and of course. cherry on top. 20-year-old account holders are crytyping on the site events neoboard about how mean and cruel it is to make rare stamps part of the prize pool, because their entire identity hinges on being part of the neopian bourgeoisie, and they are having MELTDOWNS over their assets being devalued until they're part of the lowly proletariat.
this is a children's game for children btw.
none of the money is real.
i'm having such a good time.
#I’m so glad I didn’t collect key quest plushies as an adult lol#I did as a kid but in jumpstart era RIGHT BEFORE they removed the code redemptions I was considering shelling out $$$$$ on eBay bc it was#the only way I knew to get np even tho I’ve played since 2008-2009#cuz I didn’t save well as a child#it’s making me very happy that like. we can get these items now without all that and like even with inflation#FFQ made unachievable things achievable for me#(Also i know about food club now but hey)#(my goals center around pets and I’m having funnnnn)#Neopets

For those of you keeping up with the book of Bill and it's accompanying website and the bill cypher backstory. THE PARALLELS GOT ME FUCKED UP.
Spoilers incoming.
people love to talk about the dynamic between Stanford and Bill. Sure, interesting. But you know what people aren't talking about? Stanley and Bill. Specifically referencing the website (thisisnotawebsotedotcom.com)
If you input Stanley a bunch it will eventually open a new document instead of eBay pages. The page mocks Stanley and reveals his secrets or whatever. One of the clickable options on this page is "HOW HE BEAT ME". Each time you click into this is an increasingly deranged meltdown about how it shouldn't have been possible. Calling him a "cheap trick loving, past-denying overgrown child protected from failure only by a force field of denial and shamelessness" among other things. And when further pressed accuses you of acting like "those PREACHY INFANTILIZING AUTOMOTONS AT THE THERAPRISM who are SO OBSESSED with getting me to TALK about my "FEELINGS"." After that he spirals further eventually talking about "how much pain I'm in" and only in code admitting "I can still see through the eyes of everyone I've ever..." presumably killed.
If you don't know shit about Euclydia read the wiki page on it, it's not long. tldr Euclydia is bills home dimension, which he destroyed and killed every single inhabitant of in blood and fire. He did so (accidentally?) in an attempt to show them the third dimension which (because of a genetic mutation) only he had the ability to see (with his eye). Please also note when Stanford asks about his home dimension Bill says it was"destroyed by a monster".
In the website's many documents it repeatedly makes reference to Bill's parents and how much they loved him, his home, his childhood (he wore velcro sneakers it's actually incredibly cute), the ways in which he was different and not easily accepted.
Now knowing all these things. A pattern may emerge to you. Are you seeing it? Are you seeing the patterns yet?
Obviously Bill hates Stanley because he's stupid and still he somehow beat Bill. That's annoying, maddening even. But I believe it goes beyond that. He hates him all the more passionately because Stanley reminds him of himself. The poem at the end of the Stanley password on the website summarizes it best "always dragged his family down / One mistake, disowned, denied, / only thing to do was hide." Destruction of his own family, running and hiding from his own mistakes. "Reinvent, retry, reload" trying again in a new life. "When your actions make it worse, / When they see you as a curse," Making things worse where you have tried to make them better. "Give the wheel one last spin, / Take your chips and go all in" this is what weirdmagedon was for both of them. and this is where their lives differ "And lucky stan- the rolls on black, / he got his life and family back. / His big break it finally came, / Redemption from a life of shame." AND THERE IT IS. Stanley got his family back. Bill didn't. (Which is what it seems he was attempting). Stanley got his redemption. Bill didn't.
Stanley was a lonely kid fuck up just like Bill was. And he absolutely hates Stanley's guts for it because he hates his own guts for it. And all this time they're the same, just trying to fix those mistakes, to have their family back again, to be loved again. They both have this facade of untouchable aloof levity, the same insults Bill hurls at Stanley may as well be hurled at himself. "Protected from his failure only by a force field of denial and shamelessness"? "Cheap trick loving, past denying overgrown child"? You can see Bill goes from being outraged and insulting Stanley, to denying a deeper meaning to those feelings (and calling you a therapist), to talking about how much pain he is in (seemingly over all the people he killed in Euclydia), all without any specific prompting. Just pushing. Bill is the one that connected those things. Bill hates Stanley (at least partially) as an act of self hatred. Because he has made the same mistakes and can never forgive himself for them. AND (at least partially) because Stanley is not only just like him, but now just like him if he had succeeded. Stanley got his "Redemption from a life of shame". and in so doing actively prevented Bills.
Now do you see what I'm saying about THE PARALLELS?!
#feeling insane#did this track?#maybe I'm just projecting the classic experience of hating someone like you because you hate yourself#but i feel like the signs are there#I'm not crazy#I'M NOT CRAZY#book of bill#gravity falls#thisisnotawebsitedotcom#euclydia#bill cypher#stanley pines#the parallels#the themes#self loathing

WHATVE YOU FOUND ON THE WEBSITE!? I WANNA KNOW!!! THAT WEBSITE IS SO COOL IINDVFI)JKCNSDKNCSKJSNDC
AHHHHHHHH I NEED TO READ THE BOOK OF BILL MY BRO STILL HAS IT SO I HAVE TO WAIT IUSDNIUWEFFNJKWENDJKWENDKJEWNKDJWENKJDEWNKJ
Okay okay I’m gonna share my most favorite thing from the website (that doesn’t really interfere with the book bc OOOOOOH SOME OF THE BOOK CODES ARE CRAZY ON THE WEBSITE ASHHDJDJSJS) but when you put Stan in the computer repeatedly it takes you to different eBay pages. First to brass knuckles, then to gold chains for old men, and so on and so forth a few more pages. That is until you get to the “wheel of shame.” It’s a little page with different drop downs relegating shameful parts of Stan’s past and stuff. I’ll put a cut here if you wanna check it out yourself without spoilers.
The last little drop down is “how he beat me.” When you first click it, it says (presumably from Bill) “He didn’t beat me. I’m still here, sucker.” If you go out and click it again, it says the same thing. But if you continue to click it, the messages of Bill get more angry and desperate and the notes descend into madness and screaming and then there is a page saying “WHAT ARE TOU DOING TO ME?” then “DO YOU EVEN FATHOM HOW MUCH PAIN IM” then “SOMETIMES WHEN I CLOSE MY EYE I CAN” then “I CAN STILL SEE (followed by four different codes which roughly translates to “through everyone I’ve ever-“)” then “I CANT TURN IT OFF” then “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”
Then finally the glitching disappears and it’s just Stan’s symbol on fire with the following written:
“Stanley Pines, the conman clown,
Always dragged his family down.
One mistake, disowned, denied,
Only thing to do was hide.
One way out: the open road.
Reinvent, retry, reload.
A girdle, eyepatch, fathers fez,
"I'm a new man!" so he says
Couldn't outrun life's regrets,
Just kept placing bigger bets.
Changed his haircut, switched hotels-
Truth is just whatever sells.
When you've lost track of your lies,
When the poison starts to rise,
When the walls are closing in,
When its clear you cannot win,
When your actions make it worse,
When they see you as a curse,
Give the wheel one last spin,
Take your chips and go all in,
And Lucky Stan- the roll's on black,
He got his life and family back.
His big break, it finally came,
Redemption from a life of shame.
You really think you won the day.
You packed your bags and sailed away.
You think you left the past behind.
But trust me, I’m still on your mind.”
So yeah this part makes me go insane, especially after watching some theory videos (here’s the playlist but it has spoilers for everything) about what Bill said could mean exactly (like the pain thing and I can still see)
Video one, two, and three (I can’t remember which one covers what I talked about but I think it’s one or both of the last two)
BUT YEAH IM SO EXCITED FOR YOU TO READ THE BOOK ITS SO GOOD IM IN THE MIDST OF DECODING EVERYTHING AND AHHHHHH

What is the process to redeem a Spotify gift card in Australia?
Spotify is one of the most popular music streaming platforms in the world, offering millions of songs, playlists, and podcasts to its users. If you're in Australia and have recently received a Spotify gift card, you're probably eager to know how to redeem it. The process is simple and straightforward, and this guide will walk you through the necessary steps to get your Spotify account up and running with the gift card. Whether you’re upgrading to Spotify Premium or simply adding credit to your account, this guide will help you redeem your Spotify gift card in no time.
In this blog post, we’ll explain the process, provide tips, and answer frequently asked questions. Plus, we’ll explore the different types of Spotify gift cards available in Australia, so you can make the most of your card.
What is a Spotify Gift Card?
A Spotify gift card is a pre-paid card that gives you access to Spotify's services, including Premium subscriptions, Spotify codes for sharing, or adding balance to your Spotify account. These cards are available in a variety of denominations, ranging from $10 to $100, and can be used to upgrade your account or purchase a subscription for yourself or someone else.
Types of Spotify Gift Cards in Australia
Spotify Premium Gift Cards: These cards grant you access to Spotify Premium for a set number of months (e.g., 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, or 12 months). Spotify Premium removes ads and offers additional features such as offline listening and higher audio quality.
Spotify Credit Gift Cards: This card allows you to add credit to your Spotify account, which you can use to pay for a Spotify Premium subscription or other Spotify services.
Where to Buy Spotify Gift Cards in Australia
Spotify gift cards can be purchased from a variety of retailers, both online and in physical stores. Common places to buy them include:
Retail Stores: You can find Spotify gift cards at most major Australian retail outlets, such as Woolworths, Coles, JB Hi-Fi, and Big W.
Online Retailers: Platforms like Amazon Australia, The Good Guys, and eBay often have Spotify gift cards for sale.
Spotify’s Official Website: If you prefer, you can buy Spotify gift cards directly from the official Spotify website.
Once you have a Spotify gift card, you can begin the redemption process to start enjoying all the benefits that Spotify offers.
Steps to Redeem Your Spotify Gift Card in Australia
Redeeming a Spotify gift card is a simple process, and you can do it via the Spotify website or app. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:
1. Sign into Your Spotify Account
Before you can redeem your Spotify gift card, you’ll need to have an active Spotify account. If you don’t already have one, you’ll need to sign up. To get started:
Go to Spotify's official website.
Click on Sign Up if you don't have an account, or Log In if you're already a member.
Use your email address, Facebook, or Google account to sign in.
2. Visit Spotify’s Redeem Page
To redeem your Spotify gift card, go to the official Spotify redemption page. This can be accessed by visiting spotify.com/redeem. This is where you’ll enter your unique gift card code.
3. Enter the Code from Your Gift Card
On the redeem page, you’ll see a text box asking for a code. Carefully scratch off the protective layer on your gift card to reveal the code, which is typically a series of numbers and letters.
Enter the code exactly as it appears, paying close attention to uppercase and lowercase letters.
After entering the code, click on the Redeem button.
4. Choose How to Apply the Gift Card
Once you’ve entered your code, you’ll be given the option to either:
Activate a Spotify Premium subscription: If your gift card is for a Premium plan, you’ll be asked to confirm your subscription details.
Add credit to your account: If you’re using a Spotify credit gift card, the value will be added to your account balance, which can be used for any future payments.
5. Confirm the Redemption
After entering the code and selecting your preferred option, Spotify will process the transaction. You should see a confirmation screen indicating that the redemption was successful. If it was for a subscription, your account will immediately be upgraded to Spotify Premium, and if it was credit, your account balance will be updated.
6. Enjoy Your Spotify Experience
Once redeemed, you can start enjoying all the benefits of your Spotify subscription or credit. You can stream music ad-free, listen offline, and access high-quality audio depending on your subscription. For Premium users, the experience is enhanced with additional features, such as skipping tracks and creating custom playlists.
Troubleshooting Common Redemption Issues
While redeeming a Spotify gift card is usually straightforward, you may encounter some issues along the way. Here are a few common problems and how to resolve them:
Code Not Working: Ensure that the code is entered correctly. Double-check for typos, spaces, or missing characters.
Invalid Code Error: If you receive an "invalid code" error, verify that the card is for your region. Sometimes, cards purchased in other countries may not be redeemable in Australia.
Account Already Subscribed: If you already have an active Premium subscription, the system may prompt you to extend your subscription. In such cases, the card’s value will automatically be applied to your next billing cycle.
Code Expired: If your gift card code has expired, you may not be able to redeem it. Check the expiration date before trying again.
What to Do If You Lose Your Spotify Gift Card
If you lose your Spotify gift card before redeeming it, there is still hope. Keep your receipt, as it can be helpful when contacting Spotify customer support. Unfortunately, if the card is stolen and you don’t have a receipt, the chances of getting a replacement are slim. It's always a good idea to keep your gift cards in a safe place until you're ready to redeem them.
Benefits of Spotify Premium in Australia
Spotify Premium is one of the most sought-after music services in Australia. Here are some of the key benefits you’ll enjoy once you redeem your Spotify gift card and upgrade to Spotify Premium:
Ad-Free Listening: No more interruptions! With Premium, you can enjoy uninterrupted music without annoying ads.
Offline Playback: Save your favourite tracks and playlists for offline listening. Perfect for areas with poor internet connectivity or when traveling.
High-Quality Audio: Premium subscribers can listen to their music in higher quality, up to 320 kbps.
Unlimited Skips: Skip any track you don’t like—no limits.
Access to Exclusive Content: Premium users get access to special playlists, podcasts, and features.
Conclusion
Redeeming a Spotify gift card in Australia is a quick and easy process that allows you to enjoy premium music streaming without interruptions. By visiting spotify.com/redeem, entering your gift card code, and following the prompts, you’ll be ready to access all the benefits that Spotify Premium offers. Whether you're looking to treat yourself or gift someone else, Spotify gift cards are an excellent way to enjoy music on the go.

How do I get a discount code for eBay?
As long as the coupon is still valid and the item you want to purchase satisfies all the requirements listed on it, you may use it to purchase any item on eBay. Following your selection of an item to purchase, follow these instructions to use your coupon or promotion at the register: In the field marked "Add coupons," enter the redemption code. Since the majority of people who sell products on eBay do it honestly, it is just as safe to use as any other e-commerce website. Additionally, eBay offers money-back guarantees and secures the usage of your credit card through its online transaction services. Due to factors like these, eBay is among the oldest and most well-known internet markets.

What I Found In The Leaves
Last August, as the lease to my apartment was about to end, the roof began to smolder until the place I lived was full of smoke. When all was settled and done, my apartment had no roof. My room was spared and most of my things were okay—this part of the story being set in late capitalism, I am required to assure you that the things I purchased were okay too—and I decided to leave New York City to return to New England with my family. One of the first things I did when I arrived was look at the sky and imagine I was up there. Falling or sailing or flying. It didn’t really matter. I wanted to touch a cloud, to feel the whipping wind.
I promise… this is leading to something. In the months since, in spite of comfort and proximity to my family… in spite of the arrival of my nephew into this world—a child I would climb a mountain and punch God for if I needed to—and in spite of a happy job… I have spiraled into depression. My solution was work and writing. To throw myself into my job and to, somewhat foolishly, take on the task of novelizing my favorite game: Skies of Arcadia. Because if you’ve read my work long enough, it always comes back to Arcadia. I am proud of that project but it sparked a yearning in me. To truly connect to the world I was writing. It lit a fire. Before we proceed, let me be clear that by depression I don’t mean the woes of pandemic living or some disaffection with the reality of entering my 30s. I mean a deep and painful darkness with all the implications therein. Regardless to say, my efforts to combat it drained me. To the point that I burnt myself out and with some prodding from my boss, took a vacation. Which I am currently on. This is not the first time this series of events has played out. I made a promise to myself when I started vacation: no writing. I am breaking it because I have found, yet again, a moment where I must desperately drain the wonder in my heart and attempt to explain to you that I think there are magical things in the world, and that I believe there is some type of magic in art—in that strange alchemic or shamanistic way—that transfers to us. This will be my second attempt to explain it, and to explain what it has to do with video games. (Forgive the indulgence of this introduction by the way; an editor would surely have cut it all but I need you to understand two things: I am in pain and there's a part of that pain which I think points to something important.) This is a story of ritual and tea. Of how my senses and imagination came together to send me on a journey around a fictional world, in search of heroes who both do and do not exist. As part of my love for Skies of Arcadia, I’ve become something of a paraphernalia collector. I bought an old light novel from ebay, I used my rudimentary Japanese skills to set up a warehouse dropbox so that two fan magazines could be sent there and then subsequently shipped to America, and I have drank tea based off the game. At the time, I wanted to collect the little tins the tea came in; they seemed excellent collector’s items. What I found with my first round of tea was art unto itself; balances of flavor and spice and blends that symbolized characters and connected me to them. These were crafted by a dedicated fan and fellow writer. I don’t have the time to sit and research all the ways in which tea is used in ritual. Because I am tired and older and depressed and writing a blog post that perhaps thirty people will read. Regardless, to my delight I found that the tea-maker had created blends based off the various moons that dot Arcadia’s skies. For those who do not know the game, which I assume is many of you: each nation of the world rests under a magical moon. There are six, with one—a Black Moon—theorized to have gone missing. Here was my opportunity for a journey.
I bought teas based on each moon, and one based on the world itself. I will post a separate collection of all my individual tastings and reviews later. The important thing is this: I had been given an amazing gift. With these teas, I had something of that digital world which was actual. When we play games, we hear them and see them. Perhaps with certain haptics we can feel them. But we do not smell them or taste them or literally consume them. Eight teas, eight chances to smell and taste that wonderful world. To touch the clouds. Quem quaeritis? This is a famous question asked by an angel to the three Marys visiting Christ's tomb: his mother the Virgin Mary, Mary Magdalene, and Mary, who is the sister of Lazarus—the man Christ brought back to life after his death. It means: “whom to do you seek?” I was journeying, one tea cup at a time, around Arcadia. From continent to continent, I tasted their spices and experienced hints of their values, their cultures as expressed through the tea. The question played in my mind: Quem quaeritis? Whom was I seeking? The answer is complicated. First, I was seeking something of myself. The part of me that understood magic and wonder. The part of me that believes in the soul and believes that art, in allowing the complex interaction of creators and characters with players, performs some type of soul-magic. It impresses upon us, real and actual changes. I was seeking that piece of me; that part of me that understood that each cup was a ritual that brought about a communion with a distant world. I was searching for the younger part of me that believed in wonderful things.
I drank the teas in the order our heroes travel the world, and in doing so I was performing a sort of perseveration of their journey. I communed with some place distant and followed in their footsteps. Which answers another half of the question. Whom did I seek? I sought my heroes. I sought the adventurous Vyse and his dogged determinism, I sought the firecracker Aika and her swift rushes to action, and I sought Fina. The woman I wish I could be: feminine, slight, beautiful, kind, brave. Quem quaeritis? All of this sounds like nonsense and when I try to explain the nonsense, I feel a deep embarrassment. To care in the 21th century, particularly in America, is to be weak. To be publicly vulnerable is to make yourself a target. You must be hard and solid as a rock. You cannot believe in magic or else you are doomed. But here I was, chasing myself and my heroes one cup at a time. And I need you to know that it hurt to do that.
I went to the corner store today to buy some energy drinks. When I got back home, my father asked: “did you find what you were looking for?” I told him “That’s a very complicated question.”
Let me explain. Let me do the thing that I feel I cannot do well anymore; let me do some game criticism. In the world of games, the entities we control exist as two things. They are actors; manipulatable bodies, guided by code and controller inputs, that we guide around as we see fit. In this way, players have extraordinary power. In some ways, it is a… fraught power. We can, as Soulja Boy did, leave Braid’s protagonist in a perpetual flux state: jumping and rewinding. Back and forth, forth and back. Eternal puppets for our amusement, avatars for our power fantasies. Sometimes, as in the case of a game like Skyrim, our controllable actors are little more than flesh suits But actors are, more than anything, just… avatars. Video game actors are also characters. Within their worlds, which are fictional, they have motivations and wants and desires and dreams. They want to live and grow and succeed. Cloud Strife wants to defeat Sephiroth and uncover the truth about himself, Joel wants to protect Ellie and survive in a cruel world. Arthur Morgan wants to find a calmer life and redemption for his sins. They are, as characters, people. But since they are also actors, we can deny them their hopes and dreams whenever we want. We can have Cloud while away his days gambling at the Gold Saucer and, if we want, we can force Arthur Morgan to murder to population of an entire town. The core truth of a player's relationship to the character is this: we decide if their dreams are fulfilled. I find that troubling and I will try to explain why. But first let’s be clear: I do not think the character in games are sentient entities. I outlined this relationship of players and characters in a GDC talk a few years ago, using highly rhetorical terms and my reward was the ridicule of countless gamers who questioned my sanity. Some made videos about my presentation. It was hell. To be a woman, perhaps especially a progressively minded trans-woman, in games is to know a very real hell. To this day, I cannot go a week without some type of horrid experience on the internet. Some judgment of my worth, some assumption about my competency, or in the worst cases some proclamation about my right to live. No doubt this is part of why I needed my vacation. But here is why I find the player/character/actor relationship troubling. It is not merely the abstract notion, the thought experiment that elicits fun but meaningless philosophical natter. The reason I find that relationship troubling or at least complicated is because for all of their fiction, the characters in games can give us real things. They can, through some type of power—a deep power found in the act of story-telling itself—impart aspects of themselves on us. For instance, they can teach us lessons which we then carry into the rest of our lives. My father, for reasons I can’t recall, once told me: “the meaning of life is to serve others.” Though he does not know it, that truism has been etched into my soul. It is a “thing” that my father has given me. But my father is not the only person who has etched something into my soul. Vyse, that dashing pirate, has etched many things into my soul. For instance: “impossible is just a word people use to make themselves feel better when they quit.” That is etched on my soul too. Just as much as anything my father has taught. So we come to the heart of it: what does it mean that Vyse can so alter my being and values, and that he can do it with the same strength and “realness” of my father? What does it mean for a character, who is also often an actor that I guide, to give me such a powerful gift? Because let us be clear: values are “real” things. When I tried to explain that I believe that certain things are actually true, for instance that looking at landscapes does mean that we are looking at something real…. I spent an afternoon with former Jeopardy! contestant Arthur Chu and a cohort of Twitteristas attacking my philosophical surety. So, again, fuck the internet… I digress.. Let’s explore: I believe in the realness of things because of the depth of the emotions those things make me feel, and I refuse to believe that life is just endorphins, hormones, and instinct. That music or games or anything else can make us weep for joy is proof-positive to me of the existence of a soul; of an ineffable thing that is “us.” Not necessarily all enduring but certainly extant. And if this thing exists, it can be acted upon. I know this because my father, with his truism, changed my soul. Changed the core of me. I know this because Vyse and the others did so as well.
I’ve written that games criticism is a kindness; that it seeks the good in art and attacks the banal explicitly because art is beautiful. I write today to suggest this: art is magical. It alters us, not metaphorically, but in the ways it can affect our souls. Which brings us back to character and actors. I control Vyse since he is an actor and I am a player; but he is a character with dreams and hopes and personality. And values. Wonderful values which he shared with me. So what does it mean now that I can send actors to their doom? What does it mean that I can control them utterly when I know for a fact that they can affect and change me? I do not have clean answers for this. Perhaps there are none. Perhaps all I have written is silliness, even as I beg you to please understand. Please.
Understand the power of stories, understand it in the way that Tolkein did when he said: “Creative fantasy, because it is mainly trying to do something else … may open your hoard and let all the locked things fly away like cage-birds.” Understand that I am telling you that the locked thing is your heart and soul, and that just as a lover or parent or mentor can open that thing… so can the people we meet in our fictional journeys. Vyse is not just the captain of a ship. He is my captain. That means something. Art is ritual and play is ritual. In creation, we place something of ourselves in another thing. In play, we allow ourselves to be transmuted and changed. This is magic, of a sort. I am left wanting however. I followed the path of my heroes in as literal a way as I could, pulling on new senses to understand the world they live in and touch their skies for a fleeting moment. But I cannot reach them; I am Tantalus in the mire. Ever reaching, ever chasing. For that moment I can be the person that my heroes trusted me to become. Note by musical note, word for written word, tea cup by tea cup, I am chasing my captain. When I went back to my apartment the day after the fire, I looked up at the spot where the roof used to be. All I could see was blue sky and I thought I might fall into it. Perhaps in superficial ways I have shared something with my heroes; I have tasted something they have, even though the tea is not actually from Arcadia. It was merely a conduit to my imagination, to the transformed parts of my souls. Yet, I did not find him and I could not find myself. Which is why it hurts, in spite of how wonderful it was. Quem quaeritis? He is not here. So I will keep sailing after him.

Moving into the final week of National Coupon Month
I have concluded that the 13th annual marketing campaign of the Promotion Marketing Association has been most successful of all. With 89 percent of Americans admitting the regular use of coupons, a tough economy has turned even the most frugal shopper into a coupon enthusiast.
Coupons are a quick and easy way to save money at the grocery store. According to the Promotion Marketing Association, spending as little as 20 minutes a week clipping coupons can save the average family a $1,000 a year. Over 164 billion coupons were offered in the first half of 2010, building upon a record-breaking trend in 2009 when 311 billion coupons were distributed in the marketplace.
Coupons come in many varieties, the most common being the manufacturer's coupon. Said coupon provides a Coupons discount on a particular product and is distributed directly by the manufacturer. Most stores accept manufacturers' coupons because they will receive reimbursement upon redemption.
Most people use the Sunday newspaper as their main source of coupons. While grocery retailers currently allocate about 85 percent of their coupon distribution to a free-standing insert, Internet distribution continues to grow faster than all other media sources. Among the most popular Internet coupon sites are smartsource.com, coupons.com, valpak.com, pgeverydaysolutions.com and redplum.com. In the last few years, online promotional codes have become increasingly popular providing discounts that range from free shipping to a percentage off your purchase price.
Stores and manufacturers also send coupons to shoppers who specifically request them. Obtaining coupons from these companies is as simple as searching online for your favorite brand or store and typing the term "coupon" into your browser. (For instance, typing the term "Starbucks" and "coupon" yields approximately 641,000 results.) Most stores have a separate section for coupons or special discounts. Thereafter, it is simply a matter of printing the coupon for redemption at the retailer.
Thousands of websites exist that allow coupon users to buy, sell, and/or trade coupons. Although illegal and frowned upon by eBay, this popular auction site has become number one in coupon sales. Some of my personal favorites are supercouponing.com, retailmenot.com, coupondad.net, couponcabin.com, couponmom.com, and fatwallet.com.
When it comes to "deal-of-the-day" discounts, groupon.com is fast becoming a leader while restaurant.com is my pick for restaurant gift certificates. With more than 15,000 restaurants on the program nationally and more than 33,000 daily gift certificate options, Restaurant.com customers have saved more than $500 million through the gift certificate program. Restaurant.com also offers deeply discounted promotional codes for loyal e-mail subscribers or Facebook friends.
While finding the right coupon for specific products is easy, using them to their full potential can be more difficult. While coupons used on a regularly priced product might save a few cents, combining them with sales or BOGO's can substantially increase your total savings. The savvy coupon shopper pays attention to normal product prices and only uses coupons on "stacked" specials resulting in huge savings.
A common misconception among non-coupon users is that coupon shoppers have low incomes, are disadvantaged or are struggling financially in these tough economic times. According to the Nielsen Company, a global leader in measurement and information, the biggest coupons users are college educated Caucasian women under the age of 54 with incomes in excess of $70,000 a year. In contradicting every preconceived notion, these women are among what has become known as "heavy coupon users."
Coupons represent free money and additional income to those who indulge. Quoting from Nielsen's report, "the better educated and more affluent consumers are much better at looking for deals, as they recognize the value of money." Nothing can be further from the truth in these tough economic times where grocery bills account for nearly 11 percent of the average family budget.
Whether you shop at Albertsons, BJ's Wholesale Club, Food Lion, Publix, Save-a-Lot, Sam's Club, Sedanos, Sweetbay, Walmart or Winn-Dixie, each of these stores offer an online section for coupon savings and store discounts. Shoppers visiting the respective websites need only direct themselves to the coupon section then click and print desired grocery coupons.

Ebay's Major Nintendo Switch Deal Sells Out In A Few Hours [Update]
New Post has been published on https://gamerszone.tn/ebays-major-nintendo-switch-deal-sells-out-in-a-few-hours-update/
Ebay's Major Nintendo Switch Deal Sells Out In A Few Hours [Update]
[Update: The following deal is no longer available as all Switch consoles have sold out.] Amazon Prime Day 2019 is already underway and several other online retailers and stores have responded with their own limited-time sales to compete. Walmart has a great deal on Red Dead Redemption 2, for example, and Rightstuf is offering steep discounts on anime Blu-rays and collectibles. Ebay is getting in on the action too with its Hot Days deals, and the website is currently promoting a great discount for anyone looking for a new Nintendo Switch console.
The Nintendo Switch typically has a retail price of $300. Right now, on Ebay, with code PDEALS4U, you can knock that price down to $251.74. Of course, the final price will fluctuate depending on where you live in the US, as each state has different tax policies. Regardless, that’s a pretty steep discount, especially considering the rarity that Switch consoles go on sale.

If you’re also looking for games to play on your new Switch, Amazon’s Prime Day 2019, Ebay’s Hot Days Sale, and GameStop’s Summer Sale are all offering discounts on dozens of titles. In terms of exclusives, some of the best options are The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for $50 and Pokemon: Let’s Go, Eevee for $30. There are third-party titles on sale as well. You can grab Tales of Vesperia – Definitive Edition for $30, for instance, and the pre-order price for Wolfenstein: Youngblood – Deluxe Edition has been cut down to $32.84.
The aforementioned Switch console discount nearly cuts the price of a normal Switch down to that of a Switch Lite, a completely handheld version of Nintendo’s current generation console. The Switch Lite comes in three colors–grey, blue, and yellow–and features an actual D-pad. However, the handheld device is smaller than the traditional Switch, can’t be docked, and is unable to play certain Switch game (like Super Mario Party).
We’re compiling all of the best deals going on right now, from anime Blu-rays to tabletop games and Funko Pops to PC accessories. If you’re in the market for something new, look below to see if you might be able to buy it at a discount.
