  Get on the Express for Discount Shopping  
  Know How to Find Discounts, Get Coupons, and Save Money Shopping Online and Offline  
  Want to save money while shopping? Of course you do!  
  Why? Because nobody likes to find their wallet or purse flat-out empty from all the joy or necessity of shopping or suffer the consequences of endlessly swiping the plastic to the max on whatever they can get their hands on, then waiting for the wrath of the credit card bill to drop on their doorstep only to be filled with buyer's remorse and now swimming in debt and hanging on the mercy of creditors.  
  Finding bargains and deals may seem obvious - head to Google and click "Search", or go through the stack of mail and newspapers, hoping to grab some coupons - but there is far more to the process than people realize.  
  Also, still think getting the best bang for your buck is exclusive at the big major retailers? Think again! That's the perception they create for you to shop there in the first place. When stuff is perceived to be on sale, you just have to buy it, right? But are they really on sale? Because there are other secret underground mom-and-pop-like shops where less people know about that offer - and there are better outrageous deals.  
  In order to save money shopping, you need to do what others don't do and look where others don't look...because whenever there is word of a gold mine, it will be over before anybody else has the chance to pick up a shovel.  
  You need to approach discount shopping and bargain hunting from a different angle, like pro shoppers do.  
  When you take the Discount Shopping Express, your destination includes:  
  How to find discounts online and offline with advanced shopping strategies How to get coupons the way nobody else is doing and very few know about How to determine the best place to buy whatever you're looking for How to save money shopping like savvy shoppers do, with insider shopping tips How to handle impulsive, compulsive shopaholic behavior and break the habit Personalized hands-on exercises and applications to put everything into action on discount shopping And much more  
  Start saving and sniffing out bargains now. Hack the shopping process to always get the best deal!

  Oil in Texas - The Gusher Age...

  The dramatic story of the oil boom that transformed the history of a state, drawn from archives and first-person accounts.   As the twentieth century began, oil in Texas was easy to find, but the quantities were too small to attract industrial capital and production. Then, on January 10, 1901, the Spindletop gusher blew in. Over the next fifty years, oil transformed Texas, creating a booming economy that built cities, attracted out-of-state workers and companies, funded schools and universities, and generated wealth that raised the overall standard of living, even for blue-collar workers. No other twentieth-century development had a more profound effect upon the state.   This book chronicles the explosive growth of the Texas oil industry from the first commercial production at Corsicana in the 1890s through the vital role of Texas oil in World War II. Using both archival records and oral histories, they follow the wildcatters and the gushers as the oil industry spread into almost every region of the state. The authors trace the development of many branches of the petroleum industry: pipelines, refining, petrochemicals, and natural gas. They also explore how overproduction and volatile prices led to increasing regulation and gave broad regulatory powers to the Texas Railroad Commission.
