EFF YOU SNOW!
Have you seen this crosswalk sign near the Maple Street Bridge?? Love that the City of Spokane says it has somehow been modified but it's not intentional. Okay, thanks for clearing that up.
HAHAHAHA!!!!
SNOKANE SLEDDING IS DANGEROUS * SO ARE OTHER SNOW ACTIVITIES
Have you injured yourself sledding or doing any other snow-related activities?
WE MUST HEAR ABOUT IT!!
GIFT CARDS * BEST & WORST ONES
More and more people are turning to gift cards as their holiday gift of choice, and that definitely pleases shops: Consumer Reports estimates that a quarter of all gift cards go unredeemed for a year after purchase, and about 7 percent never get used at all.
If you do decide to give a gift card, know that some are better than others. Script Smart tracks gift card data, and gives tips on the best and worst to choose -- based on hidden fees, redemption policies, and replacement of lost or stolen gift cards.
Read more @ MSNBC.
Best:
* Bass Pro Shops
* American Eagle Outfitters
* Gap (along with units Banana Republic, Piperlime and Old Navy)
* Disney
Worst:
* Rite Aid
* Simon Malls
* American Apparel

NAME THAT ICE SCRAPER SONG
Nothing like a good ole' fashioned ICE SCRAPER to get into some trouble with. And this is what inspired our latest game in the Melissa & Bob Game Zone: Name That Ice Scraper Song!
Melissa scraped a melody with her ice scraper along the ice -- now you just have to guess which song it is. AND THEN YOU WIN!!
