Free music... that is good.

I get it... we all use spotify, pandora, and grooveshark.

Here is the thing.

Living in New York City, sometimes you need music on your ipod. Subways for example, don't pick up Pandora. Then you're left listening to the awkward conversation going on next to you.

I've gotta say, Starbucks and Urban Outfitters have some pretty rad music to download.

Drink some free coffee while you're at it!

Is there any full album out there that's worth purchasing?

Free Starbucks Coffee....Every day! No, i'm not kidding

New Yorkers drink a lot of coffee (this is not new news)...

and I've discovered a way to do it, without going broke!

Here we go...

Starbucks offers free coffee

*I'll agree, Starbucks IS NOT my favorite. I truly love Saturdays and Birch... but this works during the weekday!

FOLLOW THESE STEPS:

1. Go to Starbucks and purchase a $10 gift card in the morning

2. Purchase your beverage with the gift card

3. Go HERE and register your card

4. Go to Starbucks with your empty cup

5. Hand them your card- they will refill your coffee for 54 cents

6. Spend the $10 on the gift card, getting refills for 54 cents

7. When that runs out, reload with $5

8. After you accrue enough points (happens pretty fast) you will receive FREE refills 

* Also, on your birthday you receive ANY drink of your choice!

Enjoy! What's your favorite coffee?

5 things that put you in the holiday spirit!

Here are my top 5 things to put you in the HOLIDAY SPIRIT!

1) GO SKATING UNDER THE TREE!

Yes, it is a bit cliche. So is opening gifts, and you still do that! There is something about being under a giant tree, ice skating, and New York City that is all so magical!

2) ELF YOURSELF!

It makes you laugh to see yourself as an elf...and it makes your friends laugh! So do it! Watch mine here

3) Get a holiday drink at Starbucks

Nothing makes you feel more Jolly in the office than a Peppermint Mocha Latte...and if you are really in the holiday spirit...buy one for the person behind you!

4) Go to Santacon

3,000+ people dressed like Santa...enough said!

5) DONATE

Nothing puts you in a better holiday spirit than helping others less fortunate. You can donate your time at a food shelter, donate blood, donate toys, or donate to The world Race (hint hint)...The point is...This is the season to give! 

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

AS GOOD AS ITS GUESTS
