A longtime reader asked me today if I have a tip jar. The short answer is no. But if you like what you see here, I am on the Amazon affiliate program. So any time you follow a link here to Amazon (whether it’s in a post when I mention something on Amazon, the banner ad on most of my pages, or this link: Amazon.com) and buy something–even if it’s a different product than what I linked to–you’ll get the same pricing on Amazon as you always would (promise!) but I’ll get a small commission.
The commissions help to underwrite the cost of running the site and occasionally buy a little something for the family.
