April 20th 2008 - As mentioned back on the 7th of this month I was working a music page, well I've gone ahead and published it with 2 favs of mine. So may I introduce to you ...... no, no not Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band but out of Santa Cruz, California "Big Rain" and from Monterey's Cannery Row in California "Kevin Kooyumjian" . Two distict musical styles Big Rain - a unique Rock, Country & Blues mix and Kevin with own unique stlye of instrumental music of Jazz, Latin, Blues, Salsa and on and on. So I hope you check these Artist out with a open mind and a full glass of Wine and enjoy.
April 18th 2008 - Mother's Day May 11th is around the corner so let's keep the Anniversary sale going and add a Mother's Day page of Wine Baskets & Packs. There are some great Mom & Mother Jewelry items under Apparel & Jewelry that are affordable. And of coarse you could splurge on her too with Chris Chaney Creations jewerly. But don't stop at these few pages there's all kinds of gift ideas here, so please browse around.
April 7th 2008 - Well, I almost "Wined" this out, this month is www.wine-fi.com 's 1 year Anniversary! So let's celebrate a little with sales on most items. Also, I'll be posting new items that should complete a Grape Theme, you have to wait and see,emm maybe a page just for that Theme??? We'll see. Oh and I'm working on a Muzak page. Ok fine, not Muzak per se, that stuff has been known to annoy people, but Music that has a Wine Theme or mention of and Musicians or Groups that I've enjoyed myself at a Winery or seems to just fit. So, again that will be coming soon. For an idea though if you're curious check out http://wine-fi.com/page/14464200 , remember it's a work a work in progress, but I think it'll be pretty cool. So, any way please enjoy my "1 Year Anniversary Sale" this month and be safe out there.

March 8th 2008 - New items and ideas are flowing here at Wine-Fi. Women's "Vintage Vino Tee's" are here! Black is the only available color but it is a nice looking Tee, is "WA" (Wife Approved, very important). There is another I'm looking at but that's a FP (Future Project). A few pages have been consolidated , new accessories added such as a classy Sommeliers' Tasting Cup, Pampered Grape items helping you with your Wine Glass & Decanter cleaning & drying solutions and old school Wine Openers under "Wine Accessories".
For you EZ Pull Penguin fans out there, I have these on sale at the moment, save yourself $9.00 per model. Tell a friend, order one for a friend, love one or to add to your collection of openers. Makes a great "St. Patrick Day" gift too (??????).... to open those Green Bottles of Wine!
So, until later updates are Wine-Fi'ed here, have a SAFE "St. Patrick's Day", a HAPPY "Easter" and Cheers to you and yours!
Feb. 27th 2008 - As I mentioned back in January I came across new Tile designs, well they're and post for your review and purchase. Some are actually new while others are slight variations to 2007 designs. Please be aware not all tiles can ship in USPS Flate Rate boxes that pretty much includes sizes 4x16, 11x14 and 12x12. The Flat Rate Boxes just aren't big enough to properly protect your Tile during shipping. The 8x8 Tiles though should be fine but if you do have a question please e-mail info@wine-fi.com with your question(s).
Now for some other Wine-Fi tid bits. My wife does Mechandising/Secret Shopper jobs on the side. Recently she's come across a few Wine Related jobs where she has to buy a bottle of Wine at Bev Mo ($10.00 max) but gets re-imbursed for it and supposedly $10.00 to do the job and write a report. Another she had to order a bottle of Wine on-line and later go to that specificWinery, take a tour, ask questions and buy another bottle of Wine. Of coarse she was re-imbursed for the purchases and paid for the job and report.Other jobs she's seen are going to Napa Resturants etc. Jobs may vary per your region but who knows what's in your particular area. Sound interesting? E-Mail info@wine-fi.com for more details if you're interested.
Feb. 21st 2008 - Well we finally have some items for you Fine Wine Lady's out there under Jewelry and Women's Wine Apperal. It's not much but at least it's a start, more to come in time. It's kinda tough finding decently priced items that are still classy. So check out the Grape Cluster Jewelry, Necklaces, Earrings, and Grape design Scrafs & Women's Wine Camp Shirts under Jewelry and Women's Wine Apperal pages. Cheers to you and yours and be safe out there Wine-Fi'ing.
Feb 7th 2008 - Recently a study was done telling participants they were tasting expensive Wine's when they weren't and then had them taste "Cheap Wine's". Per the study if a taster is told an inferior Wine is expensive they'll actually think it's great! Where as a known quality Wine is passed on as being "cheap", it's considered as such. I spoke to my friend JP and my wife about this and all agree .........they picked some lousy tasters. In our time we've all tasted expensive wines and cheap wines. We've all Wine-Fi'd about and for all three of us it's all about taste. Price never swayed our judgements (other than our budget that day). My advice is, "Don't let price influence you!" Either you'll like a Wine or not and if you're not sure then set yourself up a Blind Wine tasting. And guess what ! I can help you there too with our Blindwine Tasting Game and Ravenscroft Glasses specifically for blindwine tastings. Now you can prove the study right or wrong. Are you BLINDWINE GAME ??????
Feb 4th 2008 - Cool Wine Dogs and Cool Wine Cats by Susan Rene' are here under Wine Art! These 8x10 prints are suitable for framing and lightening up any Room or Wine Cellar atmosphere with a little Wine humor. And we all need a little chuckle or a crack of a smile to get through our hectic lives once in awhile. Cheers to you Susan!!!
