Moonlight Madness at Southside Goodwill tonight

by Evan on Aug.19, 2010, under Consumerism

If you’re like me and you can’t get enough cheap junk from Goodwill and other various thrifty stores, then you have no possible choice but to head down to the Southside Goodwill (900 E. Fort Ave., Riverside) for their INSANE moonlight sale tonight from 6-10pm. Everything in the store is 50%, meaning you could literally pay $0.50 for a velvet painting of Road Runner. Hop to it!

DeBois Textiles – go there.

by Evan on Jul.22, 2010, under Consumerism

Ever been to DeBois Textiles (1835 Washington Boulevard, Carrol-Camden Industrial Area)? Better set of questions: are you into incredibly awesome vintage and thrift clothing, as well as a ludicrously wide selection of inexpensive fabrics for your household and clothing needs? Have you ever wanted to see a mountain of shoes? If you answer yes to any of this, check out DeBois whenever you possibly can and feast your eyes on one of the single largest warehouses of clothing I personally have ever seen. Seriously, this place is insane. There are corded bales of clothing in the back, piles of fur coats, square dancing outfits, boots, shoes, and couch covers all at rock bottom prices. They’ve been in business for 50 years selling fabrics to people from all over, so at least you can rest assured they know what they’re doing in that department!

Not only that, but apparently this summer they’re running 50% all vintage, which essentially means you’d be an idiot not to stop by and pick up a few zany shirts or sun dresses.

EDIT: And when you go, ask for Emily, who will help with your sassifying needs.

Canadairman, Axe Dry, Brilliant

by wgatsum on Jun.07, 2010, under Consumerism

Been seeing this Axe dry commercial on the telly lately, and while I normally wince at the blatant and clumsy grab at the 18-34 that Axe tends to go for, these commercials apparently are from Europe a few years ago so that automatically makes them not as stupid (#swpl). Enjoy!

The greatest bail bonds card ever? Or: Explosions improve everything

by Evan on Apr.06, 2010, under Consumerism

Now, I have seen my fair share of bail bonds cards, Big Boyz Bail Bonds pens (I have 40,000), bail bonds bumper stickers, child safety seats and toilet brushes but this, this card, this magnificent bastard is my new favorite. Why? Because it has an explosion. Plain and simple. You don’t think explosions make for a better business card? You’re an idiot. In fact, explosions make pretty much any form of advertising better by 10,000 times.
