Saveology + Dreamforce = #awesomesauce!

Saveology’s SVP of Information Technology, Barry Newman, is vacationing out in San Fran participating in a panel at Dreamforce called “Heroku + Salesforce.com = #awesomesauce.” Yeah, it’s a funny name and probably a bit geeky, but we love geeky here because geeky is what makes our sites go round.

image

Dreamforce, which is undoubtedly the cloud computing event of the year, is happening right now at the San Francisco Moscone Convention Center until September 2. Early estimates put the crowd close to 40,000 people from all over the world. Barry and our Director of Salesforce Implementation Sara Satchel will both be presenting in panels.

Aside from delivering the #awesomesauce, Barry and Sara will be presenting in the following panels.

If you’re at Dreamforce and trying to figure out which of the 450 sessions you can attend, here’s the goods:

Session Title: “Heroku + Salesforce.com = #awesomesauce”
Saveology Executive: Barry Newman
Date & Time: Tuesday, August 30 | 7:30 p.m.

Session Title: “Building Public Web Applications with Visualforce”
Saveology Executive: Sara Satchel
Date & Time: Wednesday, August 31 | 12:30 p.m. - 1:30 p.m.

Session Title: “Building New Businesses in the Cloud”
Saveology Executive: Barry Newman
Date & Time: Thursday, September 1 | 12:45 p.m. - 1:30 p.m.

We’ll also be showing off our shiny new Daily Deals 2.0 site to those 40,000 attendees. So say hi if you see us running around.

You know what's better than coffee?

Coffee that tastes like stuff.

How about some java that tastes like sticky buns, pecans or liqueur.

If you aren’t into that, how about organic, fair-trade java from the hills of some exotic land where the growers are paid a living wage … guilt-free coffee tastes just as good as sticky bun coffee sometime.

The Thornton Adams House

I tend to be pretty lenient when it comes to hotel reviews. Pretty much the only time I’ll stay at a hotel is when driving across country and I get too tired. But, when I’m headed out on vacation, I always look for Bed and Breakfast hotspots. B n’ B’s tend to not only offer the best services and amenities, but they are almost always run by couples who care about the image and reputation of their home, not corporations cashing in on the desire for me to not sleep in my car.

image

Look at that view.

So, my go to resource for reviews is always BedandBreakfast.com. They compile reviews and are nice and honest because they have nothing invested in the individuals running the places. And, not surprisingly they got a five out of five rating along with a plethora of excellent reviews that gush over everything from the excellent attitude of the Englishman who runs the place to the amazing food his wife makes.

image

Look at that coziness.

One of the only critical reviews was written in German and included the word, “Parkplatzproblem,” which google translate says means ‘parking problem.’ But, having stayed near Boston for a few weeks once, I’m going to just ignore that because that whole area is basically parkplatzproblem.

image

Look at that facade!

The Thornton Adams House is located 40 miles south of Boston and seated right on the beach.

Get to Know Miami

One of the great things about Safari Tours in Miami is that they offer the perfect way to perk up a staycation that might be getting dull. It’s also the perfect way to spice up a vacation in a city that is pretty complex and hard to wander around in without any insider knowledge.

image

For $20, the good folks down at Safari Tours will guide you all around town and show off all of Miami’s sparkling hotspots while avoiding the not-so-shiny bits of town that you might not want to stumble upon.

The coolest thing about Safari is that they won’t just drag you around South Beach though, they offer tours in every area between the Everglades and the beach. And trust me, see an alligator at least once in your life because you’ll never get that close to a dinosaur in real life.

Safari Tours has been around since 1992 and they’ll pick you up from any hotel between Hollywood and Miami.

Check out the deal.

Keep it Clean Chicago

Dearest Chicago,

We’re not saying you’ve got dirty carpets specifically, more that it is just a really great deal and a really great idea to get them cleaned once in a while. Between cats, dogs and kids, carpets take a beating. So, treat your family room like it is part of the family.

The deal comes with a bunch of extras like odor protection, carpet protector and well, let’s just say they clean your carpet using science. Carpet science.

The coolest part of this offer though is the company behind it. This is no Joe’s Fly-By-Night cleaning service, this is Sears. They’ve been around since 1886 and Chicago is their backyard, so you know they’re going to stand by their work.

Welcome to The Hotel Anywhere

In true Saveology fashion we’re bringing you a deal that you can’t get anywhere else.

Because we’re all about travel, we want to make sure that you are saving as much money as you can when you hit the road. Unless you are one of those people that sleep in their car at truck stops, you’re going to have to pull over and get yourself a hotel room.

That’s where we come in.

image

Basically, lop $50 off the cost of a room, and depending on where you are, that might be the entire cost. But hopefully it will save you a bunch of coin and let you buy some of those swanky snow globes from the next truck stop you pop into.

Once Upon a Time in Mexico?

There’s a lot of different types of vacations, and I’m not even including staycations.

There’s the kind where you take the kids to Disney and wander around in the Florida sun buying iced tea and waiting for the line to end at the rides. There’s also the kind where you drive out to the middle of nowhere and spend time with somewhat distant family members doing things like cooking, watching TV and exclaiming about the resemblance of children that you have never seen before to their loving parents.

Then there is the kind of vacation where you see this:

image

Seriously, that is a private pool at the Los Cabos Mayan Palace.

image

And that, that’s the little island in the main pool where you can chill out and wait for cabana boys to bring you cervezas and some sort of fruity drink with an umbrella, possibly served in part of a coconut.

image

That is some sort of rock therapy. It looks relaxing right? They put rocks on you and you forget all about Bob in accounting and how he needs that paperwork for those TPS reports.

And here is another view of the beach.

image

Doesn’t that sand look better than a HoJo in Omaha?

Here’s the deets.

You can go to the Grand Mayan in Los Cabos for $792 (a $3800 value) for 7 nights.

or, head over to the Sandos Playacar Beach Resort for three nights for just $399 (an $810 value).

Look back at those pics, click the link and dust off you passport cause it’s time for your dream vacay, not just a normal vacation.

C’mon, if you haven’t bought from Saveology yet, you’re missing out. Normally we’ve got some amazing deals to offer to you all, but now, for first time buyers only, we’ve got a special treat for you.

image

Since CVS is on pretty much every street corner in pretty much every state, that’s a pretty sweet deal. It’s like a free Red Bull and bag of chips. Or a bag of rice crackers and Fiji water. Maybe a bar of soap, I mean like good soap, not just a bar of generic stuff. I don’t know, I’m sure you know how to spend free money without our advice.

Get our deal today only!

Pop-ups, finally useful

For the first time in history, make pop-ups work for you, instead of annoying you.

image

Okay, so they will still be annoying to your kids, but they’ll be a source of pride for you.

PopUPteacher is a pretty interesting software that you install on your kid’s computer, set their grade level and age, and then walk away. Then enters little unsuspecting Bobby or Suzie who log in to play their favorite game or chat with their friends, and walla, the annoying pop-up emerges to ruin their fun.

The pop-ups ask questions based on knowledge base and grade level such as state capitals or math equations. And until the kid gets it correct, they won’t be able to check their facebook or chat with their friends. The best part is it will even lock them out of google, so no cheating, unless you gave them an iPhone for Christmas, of course.

Check out our deal.

Goin' Back to Disney

People like Disney so much that we’re offering up another deal to go hang out with Mickey and Minnie.

image

This time we’re switching it up and want to put you up at the Rosen Inn in the heart of Orlando. The hotel just underwent renovation and is nice than ever. The hotel features an on-site grocery store, deli, coffee bar and sports bar where you can grab a late night dinner or drinks or rock out at Karaoke night.

The package is $199 and is good for two adults and two children to stay right on International Drive which is where all the action is. The hotel will shuttle you to the theme parks, set you up with free wi-fi and even hook you up with two free drinks, a breakfast and a dinner.

And because Disney is awesome:

Also, keep an eye out this week for some awesome stuff coming up.

What’s better than coffee?

image

Coffee with other stuff in it.

We teamed up with CafeFit for our big deal today which is half off their blends of super coffees. CafeFit has five propriety blends that combine the awesomeness of caffeine with different kinds of supplements that range from energy boosters to general wellness support.

The most interesting blend that CafeFit is selling is their Dieting Blend. This bag of beans not only packs in the standard caffeine, it also has a proprietary blend of well-known fat fighters like Garcinia Cambogia and Citrus Aurantium extract. Another blend they have is the Pure Energy formula which adds a healthy dose of Green Tea to the coffee mix. Rounding out their selection is an immune system-building cuppa that is packed with Echinacea and vitamins, a brain boosting blend with alpha-GPC and a detoxing wild mushroom blend.

Coffee already has a good rep among health foodies and scientists for its proven benefits such as reducing cancer risks and reducing the likeliness of developing type 2 diabetes. So double down and boost all that good stuff.
