Top Gear: Season 12 Premiere

The boys of Top Gear are back and better than ever. Just when you think their producers couldn't possibly come up with anything more ludicrous for them to do they come through with this: Drive a "lorry" (semi-truck, 18-wheeler) through an advanced mountain course made to test road cars. But there's a catch, they have to do it in three minutes with fragile loads in their trailers. Enjoy this segment and tune into BBC America and catch next week's episode when they travel to the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah to test out some American muscle.

RetailMeNot.com

I found this site about a year ago and I cannot begin to tell you about the savings that I've received from them. I generally use it when I am booking on a travel site like Orbitz.com, traveloctiy.com, or Expedia.com. But naturally as you can see in the video they have coupons and codes for virtually any and all online retailers you can conceive. I want to pass these savings onto you, my loyal followers and spread the word by telling everyone about ExpectOddThings and RetailMeNot. Below the video I have the instructions from the RetailMeNot website.



Here are the instructions from RetailMeNot.com :

Thanks for taking the time to learn about the RetailMeNot service.

During the payment process many online stores will have a field to enter a coupon or promotion code. Entering a special code will give you a discounted rate or free extras.

Instructions

Or even just:
amazon.com

STEP 3: Enter the address from step 1 into the box and press the "Get Coupons" button

STEP 4: You should now be presented with any coupons available for that store. Make a note of them.

With any luck you should now have a great discount or bonus!

Ernest Ranglin & the High Notes - Surfin' (Live)

I often hear Ernest Ranglin on Sirius Satellite Radio's reggae station The Joint. If I'm not mistaken I believe all of his music is instrumental. I absolutely love his version of Satta Massagana.

Check him out live in Belgium with the High Notes.
