I've been using Shein for awhile now and feel like its time to review the app, store and products (in general). So, without further ado.... The Shein App If you're looking for a cheap alternative to Amazon especially for clothes and home decor items (well, actually pretty much everything!), Shein is the place you should be shopping.  I love the Shein app, it's easy to use and super easy to filter content to your preferred buying habits and searches. I like how you can click the main category and then filter the sub categories to search only the items you're really interested in looking at and buying. Even with filtering, sometimes you still have to scroll and scroll and scroll to get to sections that interest you the most.  I do find myself thinking "hmmm... there's a lot of really risky (i.e. provocative) items here" and find it difficult to find clothes that aren't skimpy, see-through, full of holes (the latest trend) or show way too much skin. So, i

Finding a Screen Capture Tool (For Free) Back Story:  I recently acquired a new-to-me laptop, so now it's time to install programs and tools that I use frequently; one of them being a screen capture tool.  Previously I used Screen Hunter 7 , which worked perfectly for YEARS, it had all the bells and whistles that I needed; it was simple to use and saved to my computer flawlessly. BUT, recently it started spamming me with pop-up registration / pay for service screens after nearly every capture. It got to the point where, as much as I love the program for it's simplicity, I no longer want to use it due to the annoyance of the popup window. So... that brings me to the point of this article: Finding a program that works flawlessly, does exactly what I want, doesn't annoy me with ads/pop-ups, is free and requires no additional registration to use. That's when I came across this little gem:  Awesome Screenshot* https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/ If you're anything like me

 I think I might start reviewing things again, so expect to see a lot of them coming up over the next little bit. 

 Has anyone actually been successful at making money online through these "paid survey" websites?  I know a lot of them are tiered based and you have to start SOMEWHERE, but after subscribing to a minimum of 20, I've managed to waste a LOT of time and have only accumulated maybe $5 worth of "credit" - that I can't even cash out (because most sites seem to need a minimum of 200-500 credits to do so). So now my time is spent and I'm still broke. Definitely a lackluster experience.  Maybe I'm just a noob and don't know how to tier up fast enough to make the good bucks, usually I reach a certain point then have to pay money (or use my credits) to tier to the next level.... which is pointless in my eye because the amount I have to dole out doesn't even equal the amount I might possibly get in return. Definitely not a good investment.  I would love to hear your experiences with paid survey sites. Have you had similar experiences or have you cracked
