Saskatoon Lingerie & Custom Bra Fitters - Angela Craig

http://theexperts.ca/blog/2016/11/18/saskatoon-lingerie-custom-bra-fitters-angela-craig/

Many people do not understand the concept of “value for dollars”. In this world economy watching our budgets and spending our dollars wisely on good quality items is what we are talking about this issue.



You should never cheap out on a good bra. A good bra can take a thrift store dress and make it look like a million bucks. Just ask my daughter who found this perfect little black party dress for $10 bucks and she put a good bra underneath and vavoom! She looked fabulous and it perked the dress up.



The old saying of “you get what you pay for” really does apply to bras and panties.



When you buy a bra from Bodacious Bustlines you should get at least a good year out of it in the $60 - $80 dollar range. When you get into your better quality or mid to high price range, $90 - $160 you will get a good 2 year wear out of it, as long as you care and wash your bras properly. Many of our customers look after their bras really well and we see them 4 years later for new bras and the old bras still look in good condition.



So back to understanding value for dollars. This is a concept my mom taught me as I grew up. She was a single mom of three kids on a teachers income. When she bought good clothes she taught me, how many wears are you going to get for the money you spend on it. So when I look at my Maxine bra I get about 2 years out of this bra and I wear them every week. $88 dollars divided by 104 weeks is .84 cents. Pennies ladies pennies.



Now take a cocktail dress which is a $200 - $400 touch or way more and you only wear it 2 - 3 times that is an expensive purchase.



So when you come in saying oh bras are so expensive, they really are not and we wear them almost everyday all day long. Again do not cheap out on your foundation garments. I have a really expensive Italian thong that is 8 years old and I still wear it a couple times a month and it still looks good. $84 thong = $8.40 a year and no I do not have attachment issues. We do offer the extra service of repairing your bras for FREE that are bought from our stores. With in reason! If the dog chews it in half you are on your own. Many of you have popped a wire or broken a wire, we fix that for free. Loose weight, we can take them in and take up straps for free. Repair back hooks, sliders or minor tears that we do for free.



If your bras are loved to death with no elastic left in them, it is time to upgrade girls. This is where we offer the recycle program of bring in your old worn out bras (from wherever) and you receive 10% off your new regular priced replacement bra.



So added value to your purchase is also very important to look for in added services provided by stores.



We have been conditioned over the past 2 decades to be the super consumer and buy cheap disposable products at reduced prices and now it is biting us in the butts. Buying 4 bras at $40 bucks each and getting 4 months wear out of them is $40 bucks a month, not good value for dollars spent. I do know this for a fact as many customers make this comment that their bras bought elsewhere stretch out in 4 months……ours should not! There is your little financial tip in bra shopping 101.



Have a boobalicious day. Angela.

Adopting a Cat?



Adopting a new cat is very exciting but before you go and pick up your new pet you need to decide if you want an older cat or a kitten. Both are loving, wonderful pets but they have different needs based on their age and maturity level. Let's look at the key differences between the two so you can make a well-informed decision.



Ball of Energy



Kittens have energy to burn. They bring life into a house with their constant running, chasing and playing. Kittens will have you laughing as they chase their tails for hours. They are bundles of fun to play with. Kittens can be mischievous though, so they need to be properly supervised to avoid breaking anything in your home or injuring themselves. If you prefer a quieter house, an older cat is a better option for you. Older cats are calmer, quieter and not as rambunctious. An older cat will adjust more easily to his new home, will often be more affectionate and will love to sit on your lap for hours. If you have  small children in your home, an older cat may not want to play as much as your children do and may have less patience.  You need to determine what works best for your family and for your new pet.



Financial Impact



Both older cats and kittens need certain items – such as a litter box, litter, collar, toys, treats and food. Just make sure you buy toys, treats and food that are suitable for your cat's age and lifestyle. For example, while kittens love a toy that they can bat around and chase, older cats need a little more enticement to play, so a catnip toy would be appropriate. Either way, you will need to purchase some essentials for your new pet. Another factor that will affect your wallet is veterinary bills. While a kitten can be given a clean bill of health, there are still expenses that will come up in the first few years of your kitten's life, such as vaccinations and spaying/neutering. Once those vaccinations are complete, the financial commitment decreases significantly with a new kitten. With older cats the initial monetary commitment can be much less. Most often they are already up to date in vaccinations, spayed or neutered and sometimes declawed. Down the road there are potential health concerns with older cats, such as bad gums or diabetes, but you can help prevent some health issues with certain foods and regular exercise. In both cases, for kittens and older cats, prevention is the key to keeping them healthy and the veterinary bills to a minimum. Keeping up to date with vaccinations and annual veterinary appointments is a great way to prevent any future health issues and ensure your cat lives a long, healthy life.



Wherefore Art



Thou Litter Box?



Older cats are often already trained to use a litter box. While the type of litter you use may be different than what they are used to, they know that their business should be done inside a litter box. When adopting your mature cat, be sure to ask what type of litter they are used to (clay? clumping? wheat? scented?) and slowly transition your cat to whatever litter you will be buying.



Kittens will most likely need to be trained to use the litter box. Initially, when you bring your kitten home, immediately take her to the litter box. If she does not start digging in the litter, help her move her little paws in a digging motion. Cats instinctively will bury their waste so simulating digging will let her know that this is where you want her to do her business. Some kittens pick up on it right away and some kittens take a few weeks; try to be patient as this is something completely new to your kitten. If your kitten is taking a little longer, it may be smart to pick up some Stain & Odor Remover!



Both older cats and kittens benefit from their litter box being placed in a safe, quiet and private place, but you also want it to be accessible for both you and your cat. Try not to place it near your cat's food and water bowls and don't forget to scoop it out frequently. Make use of these tips and you and your cat are on your way to litter box success!

Why Do Headlights Become Hazy, Cloudy or Yellowed?



You may clean and keep your car in top shape, but perhaps you notice that your headlights are becoming fogged up despite your best efforts to keep them clean. So, why do headlights become hazy, cloudy or yellowed even when you keep them clean?



Plastic



There was a time when headlights were made of glass. Those days are long gone. They are now made of hard plastics that are specifically tempered for the job. This material is known as polycarbonate plastic. It is very strong, but it also is naturally porous. To combat this, the manufacturer of your headlights covered them with a protective film. The film works well for a few years, but then starts to degrade. Given the fact it is exposed to heat from the bulb, UV rays from constant exposure to the sun and harsh chemicals that come up off the road, it probably should not be a surprise that the film eventually fades. Regardless, this allows the plastic to become oxidized, which gives the headlights the foggy look.



Big Problem



Most people believe the foggy headlight is a problem simply because for cosmetic reasons. While this is definitely true, there is also a safety issue involved. The oxidation of the plastic headlight causes the light output from the internal bulbs to be diffused. This effectively means that the beam from each headlight is weakened, and produces a reduced area of coverage. The less you can see, the more chance there is of you having an accident.



Solutions



The first thought you might have when it comes to fixing your headlights is simply to buy new ones. The cost for this can be both significant and unnecessary for you. Fortunately, there is another option that is nowhere near as expensive and it works very will most of the time.



Our headlamp restoration system repairs any hazy, yellow or cloudy headlight. The key is to remove the damaged film and replace it with a protective coating that will return the headlight to its original condition.



You don't need to go out and spend hundreds of dollars on replacements if your headlights have become yellow, hazy or cloudy. With our system, you can spend a fraction of the price and have your headlights looking – and seeing – like-new once again.
