The Typical Cost of a Wedding (UK)

The Cost of a Wedding can be expensive; costs can spiral out of control quickly. But a wedding does not have to be an ultra-expensive affair. We recently did some research into average wedding costs here in the UK. The results we got were interesting…

Paying for a wedding is especially hard for young couples, often they have to decide between marriage or a mortgage. Some may have to borrow money to pay for their wedding.

Couples sometimes even have to cut their Honeymoon short because of the wedding costs. Choosing to spend a long weekend in the country rather that the traditional Honeymoon Holiday.

Designing the Perfect Office

In a recent study published by the Journal of American Medical Association that surveyed roughly 29,000 computer users and found that 52.7% were working with at least one form of daily musculoskeletal discomfort which lead to a loss of productivity. Increasing productivity in the office is what every organization strives to achieve. Organizations have noticed that there’s a link between worker discomfort, lost productive time and cost. Addressing these discomfort levels with the right ergonomic furniture is an important business strategy.

Millions of Americans are suffering from lower back pain and having ergonomic furniture in the office can help fight this problem. For instance, ‘hands in lap posture’ is the ideal position for using a keyboard and mouse. An ergonomic office chair is also important so that you’re able to adjust the chair to your liking. Monitor positioning is another important factor and should be adjusted so that the top of your monitor is no higher than eye level.

The Guide to Buying Happy Online

Everyday millions of people around the world spend time and money shopping online, 370 million hours and $1.5 trillion respectively, more often than not they’re leaving money on the table. In fact, 80% population who shop online overpay 19% on average per transaction. This is shocking since when asked what their top motivational factor was for buying online, 72% said price. 

We all try to do our due diligence and compare prices before we finally decide to checkout. However, this process can be time consuming with an average of 10.4 pieces of information being viewed before making a purchase. 

The process to find the best prices shouldn’t be this hard, thats why sites like Coupons.com, RetailMeNot, Groupon, and Livingsocial exist. However, you always end up jumping from one to the other to make sure you have the best deal possible, that’s where apps like BuyHappy come in. When you have the browser app installed, you just shop like you normally do, BuyHappy searches for the best prices, and lets you know if you have the best price or where you can get it for less. It’s that simple.

Now the science to saving online hasn’t been perfected, but whatever your method, we hope you buy happy!

Real Estate Trends in Parker and Lone Tree for June 2014

With summer now in full swing, and as we approach the mid-point of 2014, we decided to put together an infographic featuring real estate and lifestyle statistics about the cities of Parker and Lone Tree, Colorado where our Heritage Hills and Pradera communities are located. Based on data published via Realtor.com (which is compiled from MLS and the National Association of Realtors data), this infographic shows that the average home value and recent home sales price in Parker, Colorado is slightly above the state average and well above the national average.

Parker residents are largely affluent, but not super wealthy, with average household incomes mostly falling between $75k and $200k. Most residents of Parker are married (over 80%), although the majority of married residents also have children, suggesting that there are more young families and less retirees.  The average individual in Parker is married with kids, is a college graduate owns a home, and works in positions such as sales jobs, administrative roles, executive leadership, and also the construction industry. With average summertime highs of 89 degrees, affluent residents, and a family and pet-friendly environment, this infographic shows that Parker (and Pradera) is a great place to call home.

An Introduction to Crowdfunding

In the last several years, the concept of “crowdfunding” has experienced explosive growth and has emerged as a new avenue for raising funding alongside venture capital, angel investors, and traditional bank loans. Through crowdfunding, inventors and entrepreneurs can appeal to large groups of small, independent investors to raise capital, as opposed to seeking funding through a small number of deep-pocketed benefactors.

The Housing Bounceback

The housing market as it stands has been quite a hard nut to crack for some individuals, especially those who are trying to upgrade to a more suitable setting. However, it would seem that in recent studies all is not lost within the housing sector and the latest figures suggest that the market is finally taking a turn for the better. The folks at Buy Homes Direct have noticed the change too, and with that have made a new and informative infographic titled “The Housing Bounceback” which shows us exactly how well things have been from pre-recession to the present day.

GetAwayGrey vs. Hair Dye

Each year, millions of people spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on chemical dyes that conceal gray hair. But, is it really worth it, and at what cost to your health? Would you rather color your hair with chemicals that are then absorbed into your body, or use an all-natural solution that costs significantly less than hair dye? Even if you spend less money and color your hair at home, the gray hair always comes back and you are still allowing all of those artificial and harsh chemicals to enter your body. And, if you have ever dyed your hair at home, you know just how easy it is to do it incorrectly and not only get bad results but severely damage your hair.

GetAwayGrey’s super-vitamin contains catalase and other natural ingredients that help replenish catalase in the body so that hair can produce pigment, naturally. It is important to take care of our bodies, especially as we age. GetAwayGrey contains all-natural ingredients which minimizes the potential for side effects. That is incredibly different than hair dye which is full of chemicals and has many potential side effects. The many harsh and toxic chemicals in all hair dye are being studied and have been shown to potentially be cancer-causing. Most people would say they would rather have gray hair than cancer. But, with GetAwayGrey you do not have to choose, you can use a safe, all-natural product while eliminating and preventing gray hair growth. No more worrying that your gray roots are starting to show, or being embarrassed that you look much older than you actually are. Chemical dyes are just a temporary solution but GetAwayGrey solves the problem at the root of your hair.

With GetAwayGrey, your natural hair color will return so that you can look like yourself. With hectic and busy lives, GetAwayGrey allows you to simply take a pill each day, rather than trying to schedule hours of time for hair coloring appointments every few weeks. GetAwayGrey simplifies your hair color routine because it is as easy as taking a pill and allowing your own hair color to shine through. Start taking the best care of your body possible by avoiding expensive, chemical-filled hair dye and use an all-natural solution to reverse and prevent gray hair!

Car Insurance: Don't You Just Love Finding Ways to Save Money?

Saving money is so much fun, especially when it is on car insurance. Don’t you just love to see those discounts add up and your premiums go down?

 Ask About Discounts

Getting cheap car insurance is all about knowing how to reduce your rates. You can save money in so many ways yet you may not be taking advantage of all of them.

  • Get rewarded for being a safe driver by having a car that has special features like anti-lock brakes or anti-theft devices.
  • Don’t forget the importance of being a good driver, too. Take a defensive driving class and tell your insurance agent about it.
  • Keep adding up the years without a traffic violation and you’ll lower your rates even more.

 Think about other aspects of your lifestyle and how they can help you save money on car insurance quotes. For instance, if you bike or walk to work, you may get rewarded. If you happen to have home insurance or other policies with the same provider, that can help even more. You can also ask another person in your household to insure their car with the same company so that you get the multiple car discount. Add up all of these discounts and you could save a lot of money.
