COOL WEBSITES

I recently came upon a pretty cool site where you can buy, trade, or sell your gift cards. Check it out at Plastic Jungle.

The Fashion Fantasy Leauge (FFL) is back just in time for the Oscars. “FFL Beauty Edition is the girlie girl’s answer to fantasy football. Instead of tracking whos scoring touchdowns on the gridiron, FFL players are busy tuning in to see who scores big on the red carpet. Make-up, jewelry and hair styles worn by celebrities are tracked by the FFL staff on a daily basis. Thousands of players all over the world log on to www.FantasyFashionLeague.com to create teams, play against their friends and see what’s what in the world of beauty. The FFL Red Carpet Season runs this January and February, highlighting the Golden Globes, Grammys and the Super Bowl of Fashion - the Academy Awards.”
