Steals and Deals-A Modular Bar

I'm a big online shopper. I guess you can even say I was an early adopter of online shopping. When I discovered online shopping it allowed me to improve the efficiency of my shopping technique over the usual approach of browsing from store to store until I found the very best price for whatever it was I was shopping for. The trouble with the brick-and-mortar store search was that shopping took forever.

With online shopping, the time I have to spend searching out my deals is reduced exponentially. At least, the time I save seems like an exponential improvement to me. I also appreciate the wider variety of options I can find online and the ease of making pricing comparisons. Occasionally I score a deal I want to share with all of you. My new modular bar is one of those deals.

My Modular Bar

I first saw this modular bar at Pottery Barn. You may have seen it as well. It has been prominently displayed in various Pottery Barn catalogs over the past few years. It can be configured multiple ways and the cabinets can be purchased with glass or solid doors. I checked online today for the current price of the Pottery Barn unit configured like the one in the picture above.

Pottery Barn Modular Bar

The Pottery Barn modular bar unit is on sale for $1349, with an $80 shipping surcharge that brings the item charge to $1429. Add the standard shipping charge of $160.40, plus 7% sales tax and the total price is $1,689.43.

My online shopping search found this modular unit with the same configuration and dimensions at Overstock.com for a total delivered price (including today's 12% coupon discount ) of $1,088.11, a savings of $601.32.

Now that's a deal and this is the one I chose to buy.

Coffee and Dessert-A Perfect Pairing

Coffee and dessert go hand in hand like peanut butter and jelly, night and day, or Thelma and Louise. I've teamed up with three blogging friends who love coffee and dessert as much as I do to bring you three of their favorite fall desserts to pair with three specialty coffee drinks I've made in the Ninja Coffee Bar System. I was very excited to receive this Ninja Coffee Bar System (Model CF092) to review. I am by no means a coffee snob but I do like a good cup of coffee. I also like a coffee maker that is easy to use and can be depended on to produce a consistent cup of coffee day in and day-out. In the past few years, I have used a Keurig single-serving system, a French press, and a Cuisinart drip coffee maker. The Keurig is sitting on a shelf in my basement, the French press is on a high shelf in the kitchen and the Cuisinart sits in my beverage center waiting for me to return to it while I take the Ninja Coffee Bar System for a test drive. I have...
