Some Goodies



I received the latest batch of free samples from Sample Source. There are some good coupons there too, for free products or $1 coupons. After trying the samples they will ask you for your opinion on the product. Anyone can join. There is a bag of rice and lentil blend, some coffee samples, hardwood cleaner sample, some granola bars, even a small tuna pasta sample from Clover Leaf.

And I got this fun fact from Adam, who has a new blog on Wordpress these days. It is regarding the inventor of the stethoscope.
According to Wikipedia, 'The stethoscope was invented in France in 1816 by René Laennec at the Necker-Enfants Malades Hospital in Paris. It consisted of a wooden tube and was monaural. Laennec invented the stethoscope because he was not comfortable placing his ear directly onto a woman's chest to listen to her heart.'
