user: Article: If you only have a handful of coupons, you can carry them alongside your grocery list in your hand. If you have a few more than that, you can place the coupons you plan on using in a separate bag or envelop and stick it in your purse or pocket. You may not intend to use that pasta coupon this week, but if you get to the store and see a sale running that would increase you savings, you may change your mind. Keep your entire stock available nearby, like in your car or purse. Do not attempt to carry all your coupons out at once, however, since doing so may overwhelm you and cause the process to drag on. Look through your grocery store’s advertisements to find out what sales they have going. If you have coupons for any of the sale products, now is your best chance to use them. You might have enough duplicate coupons to clear an entire shelf of a certain product, and you may be able to do so for free, but that does not necessarily mean that you should. If you have no intention of using that product or if there is no humanly way to consume it before the expiration date passes, do not buy that much of it. Only purchase what you intend to use. Otherwise, you deprive other customers of that product for no good reason and risk cluttering up your home with useless products. Not every store will accept every coupon. Restrictions on Internet coupons are the most common. Some stores also set limits on the number of coupons you can use. Others have very friendly coupon policies and may even double the value of the coupon or accept competitor's coupons. Make a check-mark, “x,” or “c” next to each item on your grocery list that you plan on using a coupon with. Doing so makes it easier for you to keep track of whether or not you have used all your intended coupons. Even with a coupon, some brands may be more expensive than their competitor’s. Do not be afraid to forego the coupon if you find a better deal that exists even without coupons.

Article: This method involves using water to dampen eyeshadow, and then applying it. Most eyeshadows become hard and unusable when they get wet. Fortunately, there are some eyeshadows that are designed for this "wet" type of application. Most of these types of eyeshadows will say on the package that they can be applied wet. Here is what you should keep in mind when choosing eyeshadow:  "Wet-to-dry" eyeshadows are the best for this sort of application. "Baked" eyeshadows and loose pigment powders are also suitable. Regular eyeshadows are not recommended, because they will get hard and unusable if they get wet. If you must use regular eyeshadow, go for the metallic ones.  Keep in mind that the eyeshadow will look powdery when it dries. If you want something that always looks wet, click here. Make sure that the brush is dense and thick. If you don't like to use brushes, you can use a foam-tipped eyeshadow applicator instead. Make sure that the brush or applicator are clean.

Article: It can be easier to get a piece of jewelry authenticated if you can find a signature of the designer somewhere on the piece. Many designers leave something like their initials engraved in a piece of jewelry, so scour the piece for any markers of the designer.  There may also be hallmarks left on the jewelry. These are stamps left by a specific company. For example, Cartier jewelry is stamped with an eagle head. If you can designer signatures, this is a good start. However, more information is needed. There are forgeries in the jewelry world, so a stamp or signature may not be enough to authenticate a piece. Cut, clarity, carat, and carat weight are referred to as the 4 C's of gemstone certification. This information should be included on a certificate of authenticity, as it can help assess how much the piece is worth. Take your item to a local jeweler for appraisal.  The cut refers to the shape of the gem, as gems and diamonds are cut into a variety of shapes. The clarity is the gem's purity. Diamonds, for example, are easier to see through when they're purer. Diamonds, and some other gems, are graded on color. In general, less color variation means the gem is worth more. Carat weight refers to the weight of the piece. Heavier jewelry is generally worth more. It's vital to work with the American Gem Society (AGS) at some point when authenticating a piece. You should hire an appraiser associated with the AGS to examine your piece.  You can find a legitimate authenticator in your area through the websites of the AGS.  There is a search tool where you can look for reputable appraisers in your areas. Not all appraisers will provide you a certificate. However, having an appraisal and confirmation of a piece's legitimacy from an AGS appraiser is important. You may have to hire a private authentication company to issue the certificate, but information from a qualified appraiser should be included. This can help your certificate look professional when you try to sell your jewelry. When working with an authentication company, make sure you include all the necessary information. Do not work with companies that hand out certificates lacking certain details.  Your certificate should include the 4 C's of your jewelry, and verify the diamonds or gems used are legitimate. The certificate should also include the origin of your gemstone. For example, it should say whether it was made authentically or found. It's very important your certificate include all this information. Buyers and dealers do not work with sellers that cannot provide legitimate certificates of authenticity.
