Last week I was invited to a Nintendo Switch event where we were the first to test out the new console. The Nintendo Switch hits stores on March 3, 2017.

When we walked in the Nintendo NY at Rockefeller Center it was filled with video games. We got a chance to test out Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and other games. The console looks great and it is easy to take around with you to use in the car or when you are traveling. The cost is only $299. The battery life can last more than six hours depending on the software and usage conditions. It has 32GB of internal memory. Users can easily expand storage space using microSDHC or microSDXC cards. It has 6.2 inch, multi-touch capacitive touch screen. It can display a resolution of 1280 x 720. Keep the focus on fun by using parental controls to manage how your family interacts with Nintendo Switch. Link up to eight systems together to play anywhere.

This game launches on March 3. We can’t wait for this one. The event was great and we really enjoyed it. I am super excited for the launch.

I was invited to a mystery event last week and was super excited that it was being sponsored by BJ’s Wholesale.

I love to buy in bulk and save more money in addition to using coupons. This event showcased a lot of great things.

One of the key things at this event was to showcase the home décor that BJ’s offers. Did you know that they had home décor. I got a chance to speak with Amanda Gluck, the Fashionable Hostess, as she described the how she came up with the room by room décor.

I got a chance to see what they had for your living room. I love the creative way that they bring it all together and the fact that it looks so great and reasonable priced. You can easily decorate you home on a budget and not promise the style that you are looking for. Take a look at this great chair. I just loved how comfy it was.

Also take a look at these rooms all these items can be bought at BJ’s. I was again surprised.

In addition, many brand companies will do private label work for other stores. You might buy a store’s house brand and never know that the manufacturer that you love. This is great because you can get all your products at BJ’s under the label of Berkley Jensen. BJ’s Wholesale also has a private label for their food items, Wellsey Farms. I love that they offer a variety of items for you to snack on.
