Choose where the shower will be held. Your home or a friend's home costs nothing and gives you more flexibility on time and decorating. A backyard baby shower provides a natural decor, saving money on decorations.
Determine the best time to have the shower. Plan for in-between meal times to save on food costs. A 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. brunch or a 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. tea each require simple refreshments.
Create the guest list. If other showers are planned -- co-workers, extended family -- don't feel that you have to invite everyone to yours. Keep the list as small as possible for an intimate event.
Collect guests' email or mailing addresses. Save money by sending an electronic invitation or by creating your own to mail. Request an RSVP with enough notice to adequately plan your food and beverage needs.
Purchase as many refreshments in advance, so you can take advantage of sales. Most beverages can be stored until needed and some food items will also keep.
Throwing the Shower
Shop at discount stores for decorations and supplies. Purchase non-baby-related decorations in the colors of the nursery or the theme of the shower. Add matching plates and napkins in solid colors to a few packs of the more expensive printed items. Or, for greater savings, use your own dishes and utensils.
Create decorations out of items the future mom can keep as gifts. Diaper 'cakes' are popular gifts and double as an eye-catching centerpiece. Pin baby clothes to a length of sturdy string and hang as a clothesline decoration that mom can take home.
A diaper cake is a great decoration-turned-gift.
Make light foods that guests can snack on without sitting down for a formal meal. Chips and dip, finger sandwiches, raw vegetables and cheese and crackers are easy to eat as you mingle. Mini quiches, fruit and muffins are tasty options for a brunch shower. Make cupcakes in place of purchasing an elaborate cake. Personalize them with matching frosting or the baby's first initial. Offer hot or cold teas, lemonade and a light punch for beverages. To save more money, make it a potluck and ask each guest to bring an appetizer or dessert.
Fill a clear jar with candy for a 'guess how many are inside' game. The winner receives an inexpensive gift like soap or a candle, while each guest can scoop some candy into a plastic bag for their favor.

How to Get Free Drinks at a BarIn Feburary 2016 22,
In Feburary 2016 22,
Get to know the staff. Nothing will get you free drinks at a bar quicker than becoming friends with the bartenders, bouncers, waitstaff, or owner of the establishment. These are the people who control the flow of the drinks throughout the evening and getting on their good side can lead you to free drinking faster and more efficiently than any other method.
Tip well. Although this may seem contrary to the whole concept of drinking for free, lining the palms of your bartender with $5 or $10, may get you $30 to $40 worth of drinks. The key is to combine the good tips with friendly discussion. Soon enough you'll notice that your bartender has begun to forget to charge you for some of your drinks.
Dress well. The truth of the matter is you're much less likely to have someone give you a free drink at the bar if you look as if you need someone to buy your drink for you. So, dress well and you'll be much more likely to get a few free cocktails.
Lay the charm on thick. Whether you're male or female, getting free drinks from the opposite sex as a gesture of good will is a definite possibility. Try to be as charming as possible and flirt the night away. If you charm someone enough you might get an entire night of drinks at the bar free of charge.
Become a regular. It's much easier for regulars to receive free drinks because the staff and customers are all potential buyers. Focus your efforts on place and you'll be more likely to reap quick rewards.
Find the money drinker. Most bars have a regular who is sort of annoying, comes in all of the time, and has a decent amount of money to spend on drinks. Cozy up to this person, if you can find one at the bar, and put up with their lame conversation safe in the knowledge that doing so will get you tons of free drinks.
Travel with girls. Whether you're male or female you have to realize that women are much more likely to be given free drinks. So, if you're a man, escort some women on their girls night out and then hang around and watch the guys try to get into your good graces by buying you free drinks. If you're a woman, just plan a girl's night out and watch the guys at the bar all stumble over themselves to buy you and your friends free drinks.

Changing a DNSIn Feburary 2016 21,
In Feburary 2016 21,
Log into your domain registry account with your administrator login and password. Open the records for the domain that you wish to work with. You open these records via a prompt that is sometimes known as 'Account Manager' or 'Control Panel,' or you may alternately be prompted to click directly on the name of the domain itself.
Unlock your domain. There is an 'Unlock' icon or prompt on most control panels or account managers. Alternately, you will notice an icon or prompt for unlocking next to your domain name.
Open the DNS nameserver records for your domain name. Prompts for this function include 'Change DNS records,' 'Edit DNS records,' or a simple list of two or more nameservers beginning with the letters 'NS'.
Delete the present nameserver addresses. Replace these with at least 2 nameserver addresses that were provided to you by your hosting company. The mandatory nameserver addresses begin with 'NS1' and 'NS2' and can include the name of the hosting company, the address of your site, or any other address, followed by a suffix such as .com or .net.
Save your changes by clicking the 'Save' button or icon on your registry records manager. Relock your domain.
Wait 48 hours before verifying that your DNS changes have indeed propagated. If your website is not visible after 48 hours, contact your hosting company technical support service.
