I know that people will grab anything–napkin, sales receipt, even a magazine border–to record their thoughts and observations. I’ve done that. The problem is in the big picture that I either lose the scraps of paper or worse throw them away in the garbage leaving me at times without proper names, places, and dates. I know that I’m Going Places This Summer so I will bring a Carolina Pad notebook along this time to record my tourist journeys.
I received samples from The Times Square and Tiki Lounge collections, both venues work for me. I love the hustle and bustle of NYC life. It’s got everything. I love the tropical Pacific too. The best trip I ever took was to the sunny white sandy of Hawaii. Carolina Pad, thanks for sending me reminders of places in time. And good news to one of my readers, Carolina Pad is sponsoring a giveaway.
Enter now. One winner will receive two Times Square Binders (valued at $5.99 apiece) and two Tike Lounge Notebooks (valued at $3.99 apiece). Win or lose. Get a jump start on back to school supplies. There products are also available for purchase on line at www.carolinapadstore.com or in many stores including A. C. Moore, Bed Bath and Beyond, CVS, Kmart, Staples, Target, Walgreens, and Walmart nationally. You can find Carolina Pad on Facebook and follow them at @carolinapad on Twitter.
