Attention healthcare professionals & new grads: stethoscope sale!

If you are a healthcare professional, then you know how expensive stethoscopes can be!  From your first purchase to replacing a lost or broken stethoscope (yes newbies, give it awhile - the tubes love to crack in half!), the cost of a stethoscope can run you a pretty penny.  And unfortunately it's not something you want to skimp on.

I came across a great site, Stethoscope.com, after having mine literally snap in half.  Oh, I did what every ThriftyGrl would do at the first sign of a crack; taped it, held it in place, all while urging patients to hold very still while I listened to their lung sounds.  And then finally, one day, it totally snapped in two.... along with my heart.  I knew I had to break down and buy another (I tried replacement tubing from Littman, but it just wasn't the same.  It's thinner and not as good of quailty.  So much for the warranty and/or just buying the tubing to save money!)  Fortunately, Stethoscope.com has AMAZINGLY low prices!  I have shopped around, both in-stores and online and have found them to have some of the cheapest prices! 

Even better is the fact that they are having their "Graduation Sale", making prices even lower!  For example, their Littmann® Limited Edition Breast Cancer Stethoscope is only $69 (the cheapest online price I could find was $72.95) and the Littmann® Cardiology III (the one I use!) is a steal at $139 (the lowest online price I could find elsewhere was $158!)  If you need one of the big dogs, like the Littmann® Model 3200, snatch it  up for only $370, which still beat out all the other online retailers! 

Click here to visit Stethoscope.com now and see these deals (plus many more)!

Dinner with Tyler Florence!

Last night's dinner with Tyler Florence was simply amazing!  Wish-Bone sponsored the event and there was plenty of good company; other bloggers, PR staff, magazine staff/editors, etc. all joined us for the evening.  The dinner was at the Rustico Cooking School in NYC - the perfect location for such an event!  Live music filled the room while the aroma of good food teased and tempted us.  Hor d'oeuvres and wine were circulated by the Rustico staff while we had the chance to mingle and network amongst everyone.  The man of the night, Tyler Florence, was so impressive; comfortably hanging out and talking with all of us. He looked you in the eye, seemed genuinely interested in what you had to say, and didn't rush you away.  I am also excited that he gave us some tips on tweaking our pasta salad (which never seems to turn our right).  There was even a professional photographer capturing the evening (I cannot wait to see how the pictures turned out!)

By far the best (and main) event was when we all crowded around the stainless steel tables and Tyler showed us how to make 3 different salad recipes.  He was candid, helpful (answering any questions we would holler out), and had quite the sense of humor, cracking jokes along the way.  The smell of each dish was so delicious and mouth watering that my stomach kept loudly growling in anticipation!  Tyler showed us showed us how to make Arugula, Roasted Cherry Tomatoes, and  Bocconcini Salad, Grilled Tuna, Arugula, Fennel, Black-Eyed Peas and Tomatoe Salad, and Grilled Italian Chicken Salad with Romain Spears and Red Peppers.  Each one was easy to prepare and tasted phenomenal!

Afterward there was an open session where we could experiment in the kitchen and ask any questions that we wanted.  Finally, it was time to be served some of each of the 3 salads Tyler had prepared.  At the conclusion of dinner I walked over to thank him for a delicious dinner, for teaching us how to make such simple (yet amazing) dishes, and to express how shocked I was that the salads were so good that I had eaten foods I normally wouldn't touch.  Yes, they were that good.

The night ended with photos with Tyler, another round of food (a pasta and mozzarella dish and to finish, biscotti and a decadent chocolate dessert), and more mingling.  We finally said goodbye and were given very generous goodie bags (that contained Italian and Balsamic Wish-Bone salad dressing, salad tongs, salad keepers, and Tyler's cookbook, "Stirring the Pot"). 

Truly an amazing night!  A huge thank you to Wish-Bone for the event!  Also a big thanks to Tyler Florence, who has inspired us both in the kitchen and with our business!

We are still in NYC, but as soon as we are home I will upload pictures, videos, and the recipes to share with you all!

Good Morning America!

So we just got back from Good Morning America and we had a BLAST!!  Although we didn't get interviewed, we did get some MAJOR airtime with our signs!  I also was inside and got to tell the entire studio audience and some of the staff who we are, what we are all about, and why we are in NYC.  I am so excited!!  I bet some of you are excited - ThriftyGuy was there with me (so you can finally see the guy behind the hat!)  I also had the opportunity to take a picture with George, Juju, and Robin!  Robin asked about ThriftyGrl (which was very exciting!)  I also thanked her for being such a positive role model for cancer patients and she passed along the message for my good friend Susan to hang in there and fight! 

Thank you GMA for such a wonderful time and the opportunity to get our word out - the more people that know, the more we can help!!  What a great morning!!
