...Cassandra and I woke up early on Saturday and ordered the surprisingly delicious small breakfast of eggs, potatoes and bacon or sausage. Of course, an Ikea breakfast normally costs 99??. And after eating our $1.98 in savings, we bought $102.98 worth of Ikea products. I do not remember what a Trojka is, but I am relatively certain we did not need it. I was starting to think Tuttle's cheapskate philosophy is to trick other people into having breakfast at Ikea so he can borrow their Trojkas for free...
...recipes. With more than 30 cooking programs to choose from in Apple's App Store, you can zero in on anything from Crock-Pot specials to vegan treats.

But it'll cost ya: DRM-free tracks will go for $1.29 vs. the standard 99??.) Amazon is saying it's prepared to go skinny-dipping in the digital music pool: the company will sell all-nude, plain-vanilla MP3 files stripped...
...Janeiro one recent spring night, dozens of workers sprinted through the rain toward the company's cavernous canteen. After sandwiches and soft drinks, they sorted themselves into small groups and got down to work. In one corner, an elderly woman hunched over a book trying to figure out whether 99?? was more than or less than 69¢. In another, three men helped one another with composition exercises. And in a third, workers slapped down dominoes marked with letters in place of dots. "You can see people who have never learned anything learn something every day," says Maria Cristina Marcelino...
