Hi Everyone,

Save those receipts for returns - your return to the store, that
is. Many businesses offer promotions to customers who simply bring
back a receipt from a previous purchase. Starbucks, for example,
regularly runs a Treat Receipt offer: Go in the afternoon with a
receipt from earlier in the day, and youll get an automatic
discount. Other retailers offer a percentage off for customers
who've held onto receipts.

stress hormone cortisol. No tree nearby? Try lighting a pine-
scented candle.

Hint 2:

If you have to go out in the snow and ice, stay safe by driving
at least five miles per hour below the speed limit and even
slower on bridges and overpasses, which freeze faster. Also,
leave four car lengths between you and the car in front of you.
