Broward Newsletter 5.31.11
|
 Now that we have made it to the end of the school year, Father's Day is right around the corner. Many of us have the same problem; what do you get the guy who has everything? Does he really need more tools for the Bar-B-Q? So, JABBERS, I am asking you to help your fellow JABBERS and tell me how you honor the special men in your life. Do you have a fun activity or a great gift idea? Write to me at courtney@justaskboo.com this week and I will post your ideas in next week's newsletter. I am sure your men will thank you for not purchasing another necktie. Happy JABBING! |

What is JustAskBoo? JustAskBoo is an easy, fun and free way of helping you connect with your friends and theirs, in order to share information: resources, recommendations, referrals, advice, help and more. They also use it to spread the word about special events, advertise their businesses and improve their communities. It works kind of like a community bulletin in the form of an e-newsletter. It is safe, easy to use, no-nonsense, and family-friendly.
Once a week you will receive a JustAskBoo email with postings on it. Most of these postings are FREE, and are from people looking to YOU to help them find things they need.
Are you looking for something specific but don't know how to find it? A handyman? A lamp repair shop? A personal trainer or caterer or piano teacher? Wondering where you can buy a new swingset? JAB it! Simply email me at courtney@justaskboo.com , I'll post your request on the next newsletter, and other readers will respond directly to you. That's it. No strings, no drama. All I ask is that you help me spread the word. Let me know if you have any questions. I look forward to helping you.
