Picks and Finds

The Swiss_Mouse presents the project that he and Mrs. Swiss_Mouse have been working on:

www.picksandfinds.com

The idea for this site came from a conversation that the Mouse and the Mrs. were having one day.

She said “I like to shop (Swiss_Mouse felt a stabbing pain in his wallet at that moment), but how can I get paid to shop.”

“Well, you could be a mystery shopper,” responded Swiss_Mouse.    Mrs. Swiss_Mouse rolled her eyes.

“Or you could start a blog about shopping.”

“NOW, How could that make me any money!?!” said Mrs. Swiss_Mouse.

The Mouse then explained that if she had a blog, if anyone read it, if they clicked on advertisements, or on affilate links, she could make money.  Maybe.   The key here is that Mrs. Swiss_Mouse loves to browse catalogs.  She loves to pick out items, maybe even buy a few if Swiss_Mouse unlocks the cheddar vault and gives her a few crumbs.  Ultimately, it boils down to the fact that she goes through the catalogs and has her picks.  The Mice already have a web host.  It took less than two weeks to get up and running with some planning, themes selection, etc.  In a few weeks, the Swiss_Mouse will add some affilate links.

Hopefully she will get a little traffic.  What is the worst that could happen?  Ok a lawsuit but other than that….

Here is hoping that Mrs Swiss_Mouse’s love for shopping will translate into cheddar for the Mouse family.
