Onset Bay Inn

The purell instant hand sanitizer dispenser that I put at the front of the store has been getting used much more than any of us anticipated. I truthfully thought that I might need to get some more before we ran out of our current stock for the month but then we had this big snowstorm and our business slowed down for a few days.

I called the gentleman who handles our purell instant hand sanitizer dispenser and our bathroom air fresheners both and he told me that it seemed that all of the stores he provides those dispensers with, has been going through it the same way. He assured me that he was going to up the amount of times he comes in to check and refill them and our stock and he would make sure that we did not run out. He had to drop off some new air fresheners that had just been delivered anyway and would be in by the end of the week.

I was impressed that he actually knew what was going on before me calling him, but he should have let us know that he would handle it prior to us thinking we would almost definitely run out before the next scheduled delivery.

I was happy to help out a friend when she had to choose the best servers to purchase to put in her new office. She did not know that much about computer products but her computer guy had given her a list of the things she would need to make her office run successfully and servers were at the top of the list.

I knew that poweredge servers were really good and so we started searching online for a place to buy them. We found several places that sold new and used poweredge servers but we really wanted to find someone who had used but refurbished poweredge servers. I think that it took us a while to find one, but we did it.

The prices for the refurbished ones were actually lower than some used ones that we had seen earlier. We placed the order for the servers and then called the dell repair shop that would be installing them to schedule the installation time for the day after delivery. This way, the dell repair man would be there, shortly after the servers arrived and not hold up the opening of the office.

The other computer products that my friend needed were easy to find around town at the local electronics stores, we had the list completed by the end of the day.

The used point of sale equipment salesman stopped by my store yesterday and tried to get me to pay the ridiculous prices he charges for some new things. I knew that I needed to replace some of my scanners and such but I could never afford to buy them new.

I had discovered a website that sells some used pos equipment that is priced much lower than what the salesman offers. I am sure that he makes commission and so his company has to add that amount on to the cost of the products. The website offers many of their used point of sale equipment at about thirty to forty percent less than the salesman, so I am betting that he makes about that much.

I really like him but I am not sure why he keeps coming back week after week to see if I want to buy anything from him. You would think that when he comes in and I have some new to us used pos equipment he would get the hint that I am not going to buy from him, and that I obviously already have a different salesman or provider that I would rather use. I always wait to see if he asks me where we get our stuff, but he never does.

I was so proud of my son for getting his first job and getting a raise the first month that he was there. He had helped the entire company run better and it was all because of a suggestion that he made to the big boss about the servers they used to have installed.

I think that he had known all about used servers for years and knew the benefits at cost saving but had not been able to convince anyone to take his advice until now. He had just walked around and checked out the equipment in the office before work and then when the servers went offline, twice in one day, he suggested to the big boss that they install some used poweredge servers that would be just like having new ones with half the cost.

The boss asked him to show him these used poweredge servers and where to get them, and my son already had the site bookmarked on his computer. Right then and there, the boss ordered the used servers from the company that my son recommended. He got the raise very shortly after they were installed and when the company stayed online for three weeks straight which had not happened for two years.

My mother told me that she was having a bunch of new servers put in at work and she would be closing the office for a week while the computer technicians worked on getting everything switched over. I invited her to spend the week with us so we could catch up on things, she had been working very hard and I had not seen her in a long time.

When she arrived, my husband started asking her questions about what type of servers she was installing and she told him that they were used proliant servers. He asked her why she went with used and she explained that one of her computer guys owned a company that bought used hp servers and then refurbished them. The used proliant servers that were being installed were just like brand new ones but did not have the new price tag attached.

She told us that she probably saved about sixty percent of the cost of new servers by going with the used hp servers that had been refurbished. She had no worries about them and was sure that they would run for many years without any trouble. I was glad to know that she knew her computer stuff and had good computer techs to help her out if she needed it.

I thought I may have found my last and final player that I need to have my own Scottsdale soccer league team. I wanted to start practice the following week since we have just over a month till our first game. I called the girl who said that she might be interested in playing and she told me that her husband does not want her doing it. I asked why and she says that it is because it is the Scottsdale coed soccer league.

I tried a few more people who I thought who might do it but they all told me that they were just too busy at this time to add it to their schedules. I contacted the Scottsdale soccer league organizers and asked to have them give me a player.

The player that they assigned to my team had signed up on the Scottsdale coed soccer league as a free agent which meant that they could be put on any team who needed additional players. The guy that they gave us was really good and I was happy that he got put on our team. We won all but one game and came in second at the end of season tournament.

I really wanted to get some boys pajamas for my niece since she does not like anything pink or frilly. I wanted her to be completely comfortable, and thought that maybe footed pajamas would do the trick. I know that my brother and sister in law were having a hard time with my niece and her wanting to wear boys clothes but I really thought that it was just a phase that she would grow out of it very soon and then be back on track about the time she hit high school.

I called and discussed the situation with my friend who is a therapist and she seems to think that getting her some boys pajamas is harmless and that maybe by wearing them at night where no one could see them, would ease the tension with her parents. I ordered some blue and green footie pajamas for her and hand delivered them to her.

She was so happy to see that they were not nightgowns and they were not pink that she gave me a big hug and kiss and thanked me for not trying to make her be something that she is not.

The entire phase of wearing the boys clothes only lasted for about two years and she is now back to wearing girls clothes like skirts, high heels and even make up.

There are only two things that my current office supply company offers for a cheaper price than what the competitors in the area charge. I only just happen to find this out when my secretary told me that she thought that the office upstairs had cheaper office supply bills then what we did. I called up and asked them who they used and they told me about an online office supplies place that had really good prices.

So, my secretary took it upon herself to find out what the online prices were and compare them to all the area office supplies places that are local also. It took her two weeks to compile everything and look it over. She came back with the conclusion that the online company was definitely cheaper than all the rest. I gave her the go ahead to switch to the online company and let the local one know that we did not need them for their office supply services anymore.

The manager called and left me three messages that afternoon and asked me why we were cancelling our orders. When I finally called him back, I told him that I had faxed him a price list over to him from the office supply company that we would be using. He looked it over and then said that he understood after seeing prices that he could not compete with.
