Artist Brush Set – 18 Piece Set
18 Brushes For Less Than You Would Pay For One…
List Price: $17.99
DEAL PRICE: $7.99
Get Two for $13.98
If you’ve ever bought, even a mildly good quality brush then
you know just how expensive they can be.
When we came across this super buy… I flipped. For less than
1/2 of what you would pay for just one brush you get a whole
set of 18! It’s a whole assortment of flat and round bristled
brushes for any painting occasion.
If you think that’s all… you’re wrong… it even comes with
a canvas case for storage.
FEATURES:
- 18 Bristle Brushes, Flats and Rounds
- Brush Sizes 1-8 and 10
- Natural Wood Handles
- Bonus Natural Canvas Brush Case
- Perfect for Painting, Arts, and Crafts
I have to emphasize what a great price this is for 18 brushes.
For the price of one brush you can get 18, plus the sturdy
canvas carrying case.
Grab one for $7.99 or get two (The set is perfect for gifts)
for $13.98. VISIT: http://pd.gophercentral.com/u/14514/c/120/a/620

============================================================
* Carry a printed card that explains your food allergy and
show it to the waiter in a restaurant (or maitre d’ at a
cocktail reception) and ask about what you order or what is
on the buffet table. If traveling abroad, have it printed in
the appropriate language. Visit http://babelfish.altavista.com
to get free, simple translations in advance and print them
out.
* Insist that the waiter shows your card to the chef. Don’t
just let the waiter say that he or she gave the card to the
chef – insist on a response.
* Some experts suggest avoiding buffets altogether, as diners
move the serving utensils around from bowl to bowl, for
instance, or ice cream parlors, as servers may use the same
scoop or confuse your order.
* When dining out with friends, don’t sample their dishes
unless you have specifically asked the waiter/chef about
their safety, too.
* Always carry your medications with you, and an epi-pen if
your throat swells or other life-threatening reactions ensue.
* It’s a good idea, if possible, to check out where the
nearest hospital is located and make a note of it.

* Read up before you go. There are also several other
websites that can provide assistance, like Food Allergy
Connection (www.foodallergyconnection.org/index.html) and
Food Allergy (www.foodallergy.org), which also offers books
for sale.
* Go Vegetarian. Many people have allergies or aversions to
certain meat products, fish, or shellfish (myself included)
and vegetarian restaurants can help take the guesswork out
of what is and is not in the food. A strictly veggie
restaurant will not cook in any meat or seafood-based oils
or stocks.
* Know your numbers and names. Additives may be called
something else in other countries or labeled differently. In
Australia and the European Union for example, the law
requires that only a number be listed as the ingredient –
Food Additive #621.
* Make sure that you learn the necessary words to be able to
explain your dietary restriction.
* Pack all medications you will need on your trip in your
carry-on luggage and make sure you always carry them with
you in a bag or in your pocket when you reach your
destination. Make sure you bring more than enough for your
stay and store them in their original containers (in case of
questions at customs), plus if possible bring a prescription
or note from your doctor.
