Greg Page from the wiggles is stepping down

I know this isn’t a popular subject, but I sometimes turn the TV on to let my daughter be entertained while I try to get something done.  She loves to dance so the Wiggles is the perfect babysitter for a few minutes.  However I just heard from Play Library that Greg Page is having to […]

Save On New Release DVDs

Is there a particular movie that you would like to own on DVD?  If so, then I suggest buying it the week it is released to the stores.  The first week a movie is released, you can usually save five or more dollars then you would if you bought it in the following weeks.  Tonight I […]
