Free ebook by U of Chicago Press: on Ambergis

It is 232 pages long, published in 2012. It is not a DRM-free e-book, it requires a reader app compatible with Adobe’s DRM abomination.

Staples Rewards now offers free $50 Copy and Print Services for Premier members

One of the side effects of the merger of Office Max and Office Depot is that now the rewards programs at both the combined Office Depot/Max and Staples are worse than they were before. Both have decreased benefits, while camouflaging some of the changes. For example, at Staples, you no longer get the full 5% amount, since you only receive rewards in $5 increments. Sneaky bastards!

50pk Bentley’s White Tea bags for $3 (YMMV at B&M)

At Ross brick and mortar stores, you may be able to find 50pks of Bentley’s White Tea for just $3. I spotted a “White Tea – Earl White” and a “White Tea – Ginger Peach”. Inside, you will find a sealed tinfoil pouch, with fifty tea bags inside. Each tea bag has a string and tag. The tag sadly has a staple on it. The tea bags are not individually wrapped. And after you drink it all, you get to keep the tin they came in. You can see pictures of the packaging at amazon.com.
