Give the gifts of affordable wine and healthy headrests.

Stretch Your Wine Dime

Bin Ends wine is a fine-wine retailer out of the Boston area and nationally online at www.binendswine.com. Their pricing structure uses auto-markdowns, similar to the strategy of off-price retailers, and offers potential savings of up to 45 percent. Every three weeks, anything still in stock gets marked down. The Reserve Bid Option allows customers to place an "option" to purchase a product at a specified future price, based on availability. Orders over six bottles are shipped for 99 cents per bottle, and orders over $500 are shipped free of charge.

But here's a simple solution to avoid the uncertainty on your next adventure. JetHeads provides comfort and cleanliness to passengers with a line of disposable airline pillowcases. Just slip one over the existing pillowcase provided and avoid any unwanted hassles. With JetHeads, a soft, white pillowcase made out of disposable fabric, travelers can rest their heads comfortably.
