Microsoft discounts for Education…

I have some good news for all those people who visit my blog and who home school their kids. Did you know that home schooling qualifies for a discount on Microsoft products like MS Office. So you don’t need to be a student in college or a teacher in a public or private school to qualify for this discount (however those folks certainly do qualify) but you can run your own home school program and get the discount.

You can purchase 100% Authentic Microsoft products at academic discounts from the Authorized Education Reseller CostCaptain.com. This means that you can get the full version of Microsoft Office for $129.00 and the Vista upgrade for only $89.00. Users must provide proof of academic eligibility but that should be easy with the friendly customer service of Cost Captain.com. You can even give gift certificates during this holiday season. I know an educator who just got a new laptop and could use the new Microsoft Office. That gives me an idea…

Warriors in Pink…

You may have noticed that this blog has gone pink for the month of October. That is to promote Breast Cancer Awareness. My wife was in a sorority when she was in college where that was their cause. She is still active as an alumni and has done the 3-Day walk and volunteered at the Race for the Cure. Both worthy causes to help raise money for the Susan G. Komen foundation and breast cancer research.

I found a website called Warriors in Pink, this is a program sponsored by Foard. They have the Warriors in Pink special edition Mustang, that looks really sweet. You can even enter to win one. And the sale of each mustang will give $250 to the Susan G. Komen foundation. That is a small percentage of the purchase price but still a good donation.

However, if you would like to make a 100% donation and still walk away with something you can buy the $250.00 30GB Warriors in Pink Edition Zune. The donation is 100% thanks to Microsoft and Ford. A pretty sweet deal and I am totally loving my Zune these days. Maybe Allison needs one. It would be great to carry all the baby pictures on.
