			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m not even exaggerating! I do a ton of online shopping. And even when I visit brick and mortar establishments, I do my research online, before I go, so I&#8217;m armed with the latest coupons and promo news. This goes for small purchases like accessories and clothing, as well as larger buys like tech gadgets and trips.</p>
<p>Since 1998, SciTechDaily has been mostly known for their technology and <a target="_blank" href="http://scitechdaily.com/">science news</a>, but recently jumped into the coupon/promo code game. Always a welcome move! That&#8217;s what people are looking for these days.</p>
<p>And going right along with their technology theme, you can browse for a number of different deals like a <a target="_blank" href="http://scitechdaily.com/coupon-codes/newegg/">Newegg promo code</a> or even <a target="_blank" href="http://scitechdaily.com/coupon-codes/vistaprint/">Vistaprint coupons</a>. I&#8217;ve purchased from both of those companies, in the past, who are almost always running promos. As a matter of fact, a lot of my backup computer peripherals come from Newegg. I have an unopened Power Supply sitting on the floor of my room right now! And I&#8217;ve previously gotten some business cards, for a side project, from VistaPrint.</p>
<p>So, why not add another coupon code and promo resource to your bookmark list? You can never save too much money, can you? Didn&#8217;t think so!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Or at least that&#8217;s what I tell myself! Since another Mother&#8217;s Day is now in the books, with my Mom just as happy as always, I feel so happy to have her in my life. And even though I try, every year, not to think too much about the future, I do. My parents are both retired, so even though they&#8217;re both in pretty good health, I do worry about them. Why? Because that&#8217;s what good kids do! (How&#8217;s that for a guilt trip?!)</p>
<p>I&#8217;m just kidding. Kind of. I really do think about these things, even though I wish I didn&#8217;t. I also worked in a hospital, as a registrar, for a year. So, that lingers on my mind. I had to check patients in and make sure their insurance information was up-to-date. So naturally I think about my parents&#8217; medical coverage and if they have enough of it.</p>
<p>They&#8217;re just a few years away from Medicare kicking in, but I definitely want them to have a <a target="_blank" href="http://www.planprescriber.com/medigap/">Medicare supplement</a>. As is the case with most purchases we make, being able to go to a website and compare prices, plans, and other pertinent info is always important. This is no different. That&#8217;s where Plan Prescriber comes in. </p>
<p>First thing you see is a form. You can plug in your info to begin comparing plans and finding an agent. Or you can check out a chart (at the bottom of the page) that shows you the standard plans and points out the difference between each of them. This includes co-pays, deductibles, emergency coverage, and more.</p>
<p>And if you&#8217;re not ready for that yet, there&#8217;s an intro video as well. This is where I&#8217;d begin if you&#8217;re not familiar with Medigap plans.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s an inevitable thing that our parents are going to get older. There&#8217;s only one alternative to this fact, and I definitely don&#8217;t want that! So, I keep these things in the back of my head, just in case. Better to be prepared, than not, right? That&#8217;s what I thought too.</p>

<p>I have absolutely no idea why this workout is longer than Day 2&#8242;s when it should be shorter. The obvious answer is that I messed it up somewhere down the line lol. If you stumble across an error, please let me know so I can adjust it. It&#8217;s late, and I had a super busy day, so my mind isn&#8217;t quite as sharp as it usually is!</p>
