Mike Selvon asked:




Wedding reception table decorations add a great accent to your big day. Since the guests will be sitting around your table decorations, you want them to be memorable, while still being inexpensive, so you don't spend a fortune on them.

You can find many resources and other ideas to make great decorations that are sure to keep your guests talking for weeks or even years. With a creative mind, your choices are limitless.

One of the most impressive decorations in recent years is the fresh-cut fruit centerpiece. At Fruitstoremember, you can find amazing centerpieces made solely of fruits. More brides are adding these creations to their list of wedding reception centerpiece ideas because they are a great conversation piece at the event.

This is also one of the best wedding reception table decorations because guests can use it as an appetizer while they are waiting for the happy couple to arrive at the reception hall. These decorations come in a variety of arrangements and they are a tasty and attractive addition to any marriage reception.

Balloons are another impressive, but cheap, idea for wedding reception table decorations. You can choose from a variety of colors and easily move this particular centerpiece around.

Balloons are ideal for them because they can be made up ahead of time and they are suspended in the air, so they do not obstruct anybody's view. Since you can buy a pack of balloons for only a few bucks, these can be included on your list of marriage reception centerpiece ideas when you're planning inexpensive marriage receptions.

For cheap marriage receptions, many brides can go to local Dollar Stores and find great products and ideas for their marriage reception table decorations. Many of these stores sell stylish glass vases, small mirrors, candles and marbles.

If you're looking for centerpiece ideas, you can combine marbles, water, and a floating candle in a large vase to create an impressive display. These decorations are elegant but inexpensive, making them ideal choices for receptions on any budget.

Whether you're trying to plan an inexpensive marriage reception or an elegant one, you can find the decorations to fit your budget. Many marriage-based websites will give you centerpiece ideas, as well as ways to do them yourself to save money.

Wedding reception table decorations can range from something as simple as balloons to something more unique and creative as a fresh-cut fruit arrangement. Either way, your reception will be something you will remember for a lifetime, regardless of which decorations you use.

Koolatron - Koolatron Voyager Cooler Koolatron - Koolatron Voyager Cooler
List Price: $159.95
Sale Price: $107.00
Used From: $117.93

Ideal for road trips, camping excursions, boating trips, tailgate parties, and just about any other away-from-home activity, the Koolatron Voyager thermoelectric cooler keeps your food and beverages cool without requiring you to stock up on ice cubes every few hours. The Voyager plugs directly into your car's 12-volt cigarette lighter, where it draws less power than your headlights. Once plugged in, the cooler's thermoelectric cooling module--which takes up less space than a matchbook--maintains a constant temperature of approximately 40 to 45 degrees F lower than the temperature of the surrounding air. At a temperature of 80 degrees F, for example, the contents of the cooler will stay at 38 degrees F. As a result, you can store cool drinks for weeks on end, preserve leftovers for a couple of days, and even keep ice cubes whole for three or four days longer than traditional coolers. No more costly stops for soda or snacks, saving you both time and money while on the road. As an alternative, you can also use the Voyager to heat food up to 130 to 140 degrees F--hot enough for a potluck dinner or a picnic. Or you can split the difference and keep infant food and bottles warm while on the road. Explaining Thermoelectric Refrigeration Thermoelectric refrigeration uses a principle called the Peltier effect to pump heat electronically. Named after a French scientist who discovered it in 1834, the Peltier effect describes the process of electrical currents passing through a series of tiny metal cube junctions, thereby transferring heat from one metal to the other. When connected to a heat-absorbing device on one side and a heat-dissipating device on the other, solid-state thermoelectric modules are capable of transferring large quantities of heat. The Voyager cooler applies this technology through its internal aluminum cold plate fins, which absorb heat from the contents (food and beverages), and then use the thermoelectric modules to transfer it to the heat-dissipating fins under the control panel. The only moving part is a small 12-volt fan that disperses the heat into the air. Thermoelectric modules--which are ideally suited to recreational applications because they are lightweight, compact, insensitive to motion or tilting, have no moving parts, and can operate directly from 12-volt batteries. Voyager Benefits The Voyager offers a number of benefits to anyone who travels frequently in a vehicle. While it's not quite as portable as a traditional cooler, it still offers plenty of on-the-go freedom, making it great for day trips, long overnight journeys, pleasure boating, fishing, and camping. It's also extremely efficient, continually reducing the temperature within the first three hours depending on the contents of the unit and the surrounding air. And because there's only one moving part (the 12-volt fan), virtually nothing in the cooler can wear out. The Voyager also proves invaluable as an extra fridge in a recreation room or basement bar, the main fridge in a dorm room, as a medical cooler for samples or temperature-sensitive drugs, and as a storage case for heat-sensitive camera and film equipment in extreme climates. Specifications: Capacity: 29 quarts, or up to 48 12-ounce cans Power usage: 12 volts / 4.5 amps DC Interior dimensions: 12 by 12 by 12 inches (W x H x D) Exterior dimensions: 16 by 15.5 by 17 inches (W x H x D) Weight: 13 pounds

The Koolatron Voyager 29 quart 12 Volt cooler is ruggedly designed with plenty of room to store and cool all your favorite travel snacks and beverages. Your family will no longer need to stop for food or soda while on the road. The time and money saved by eliminating stops at the convenience store while on trips will more than pay for the Voyager over time. A 12 Volt plug is included with your Voyager Cooler and plugs into your cigarette lighter to keep all your favorite snacks and beverages chilled up to 40ºF below the ambient temperature. The Koolatron Voyager can also keep food warm up to 135ºF. With the optional AC adaptor the cooler can be plugged into a standard 110 Volt household outlet and used indoors or on the patio as a compact refrigerator or bar fridge.The perfect gift for RVers, boaters, outdoorsmen, hunters or college students!

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack: Grand Theft Auto III / Grand Theft Auto Vice City Grand Theft Auto Double Pack: Grand Theft Auto III / Grand Theft Auto Vice City
Sale Price: $39.98
Used From: $7.52

Praised for brilliant scripts and open-ended gameplay, vilified for unapologetic violence and mature themes, Grand Theft Auto has deservedly become one of the most popular game franchises in history. This double pack contains the full versions of both Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto III: Vice City, enhanced for Xbox. Xbox gamers can rejoice that the grand king of video games--The Sopranos with a gamepad--is finally available on the big black box. Grand Theft Auto With Grand Theft Auto III Rockstar proves that not all developers are concerned with toning down the violence in their games. This sequel is even more bloody, violent, and sadistic than its popular predecessors, offering up an enormous 3-D city in which nearly any criminal act is possible. Players are free to steal cars, beat up the local population for their money (or weapons), make time with prostitutes, or simply roam to their heart's content. Those seeking more structure can embark on dozens of missions driven by a genuinely interesting crime-story plot or steal cars that let them play minigames. Nab a cop car and you can go on vigilante missions. Grab a cab and you can play a deadly version of Crazy Taxi. Take a fire truck and you can earn money putting out fires. The minigames are a good way to unwind after a particularly difficult mission. With so much to do, the game just never gets boring. As you'd expect, there are consequences for criminality. As your random acts of mayhem mount up the police start hounding you, eventually calling in SWAT trucks, the FBI, and even the army if you continue down the path of destruction. Shaking these pursuers is easily the most fun part of the game, especially when a bunch of friends are packed in the room to witness your narrow escapes. Grand Theft Auto III is fine-tuned to near perfection in every category. All the vehicles, from slick sports cars to lumbering dump trucks, handle exactly as you'd expect and smash apart realistically when abused. The three islands in the game are rendered in terrific detail considering their size, and are packed with traffic, pedestrians, and hidden jumps. The audio is equally amazing. Pedestrians talk, cops scream at you, and you can tune in nine different radio stations whenever you are in a car. It all adds up to a monumental achievement: the rare console game for adults that manages to get everything right.--T. Byrl Baker Grand Theft Auto III: Vice City How big is this game? Even publicists for other games end up talking about Vice City when they call our office, babbling in the same helplessly intoxicated way that afflicts everyone who plays it. The achievement of Vice City (which, as everyone knows by now, is set in the 1980s and offers an all-new, Miami Vice-inspired story) is not only that it manages to live up to an absurd level of expectation, but that it takes the game places that fans of its predecessor Grand Theft Auto III never dreamed of, and that it achieves this astonishing level of innovation without losing anything that made GTA3 the bestselling PS2 game of all time. After a brilliant homage to the era of the Commodore 64 in the opening credits, the first thing you'll notice is the improved graphics, which are smoother and more detailed, and--with effects like neon lights reflected on rain-slick streets, and intense Florida sunlight--have a lush, tropical look that immediately gives you a strong sense of place. The architecture is more fabulous by tenfold, with art deco buildings, high-rise hotels, and believably seedy back alleys. The control scheme is essentially the same as in GTA3, but the cars handle much better, and in pedestrian mode there is a new crouch move. You will have access to fast, great-handling cars right away, as opposed to GTA3 which made you unlock the second island before you could get your hands on any respectable wheels. This game has such riches to offer that there is no need to be chintzy with the vehicles. Cops are more vigilant this time--minor offenses like whacking innocent bystanders will more often than not get you a two-star wanted level--and are harder to elude (though they still can't seem to climb stairs or negotiate sharp turns). So while free-roaming exploration is as fun as ever, there is more incentive to perform the missions instead of randomly raising hell. Not that that's a bad thing: even lazy criminals like myself (in GTA3, I would rather toss hand grenades into traffic than follow orders from some rude Mafia boss) will be quickly caught up in the vivid characters and hilarious, fascinating story, in which you play an acid-washed-jeans-wearing thug named Tommy Vercetti. Where in GTA3 missions were blocky, schematic affairs only nominally connected to the story, this time tasks move the story briskly along and deftly blend cinematics and game action. For example, there is a scene of a character throwing Tommy a gun, at which point you are suddenly thrown back into the action and must make an instant decision about whom to trust and what to do. There are more, and more detailed, indoor environments, including a hotel, police station, and mall (a slight downside to this is that some of the more elaborate indoor environments require load times). The layout of the city, with tons of backyards, narrow alleys, and fire escapes, encourages creativity when eluding pursuit, as does greater access to rooftops. Get your motorcycle up the fire escape and a whole new world of action is possible, including... well, use your imagination. This overview barely scratches the surface of the Vice City experience, its colorful explosion of music, clothes, combat, and brilliant voice acting, not to mention the plot twist midway through the game that changes the very nature of the game itself. Though it was the outrageous, amoral violence that got all the press, the essential genius of GTA3 was its intoxicating blend of script and open-ended action. In Vice City this is--to use a cliché that is for once apropos--taken to a whole new level.--David Stoesz Pros: Open-ended gameplay; player can chose to be relatively law-abiding or engage in wanton virtual destruction Varied missions Brilliant scripts with Hollywood voice acting Rocking sound track (also available in our Music store) Xbox-enhanced graphics Cons: As the The Sopranos of games, GTA 3 draws unwanted attention from overzealous legislators No multiplayer

The infamous GTA series doubles up and delivers twice the car-stealing, hood-capping, trash-talking larcenous adventures. Includes Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

View larger. A wide array of vehicle classes. View larger. Easy to use controls. View larger. 12-player multiplayer support. View larger. Real-time environment deformation. View larger. Gameplay Similar to earlier games in the MX vs. ATV series, gameplay in Reflex revolves around multiplayer racing (12-player), across a wide variety of off-road race event types. These events encompass everything from motocross, supercross, omnicross and others and also feature a high level of trick completion, judged with several parameters in mind. Vehicles used in the races run the gamut from specific MX bikes, and ATVS, to super buggies and trucks. Gameplay in the dirt-covered environments faced require skill and guts to master. Along with the new Rhythm Racing 2.0 physics engine, MX vs. ATV: Reflex helps players achieve in these areas with a new control scheme, Rider Reflex. Rider Reflex Build around dual stick controls, the Rider Reflex control scheme built into MX vs. ATV: Reflex is designed to revolutionize the way you race in several different ways. The first of these is by improving precision turning when you need it. With the left stick controlling the bike and the the right the direction that the rider leans, tighter and faster turns are possible by jerking the two stick in the same direction, carving the player to a stop or changing direction in a instant, just as you would on a real bike. Similarly this ability to use the rider's weight, also impacts more subtle abilities to control a bike, both on the ground and in the air as the rider uses his weight to slow, or speed up his momentum at crucial times and change the angle of his bike to correct a bad takeoff But Rider Reflex is not just about steering. It also has a major role to play while while you are in the air, allowing players to pull off tricks like never before. There are several tricks and freestyle variations possible, all of which will take some time to discover and master, but the basic trick performance mechanism is simple. To pull off a trick just hold down the left bumper and indicate direction on the right stick. Players can hold the stick in the final position to hold the trick longer. The tougher the move, the more movement is required of the stick. Tricks can also be combined for extra style. Wreck Avoidance System No matter how sick attempted tricks might seem, they aren't worth much if you can't stick the landing. With this in mind MX vs. ATV: Reflex helps to get you back on the ground, safe and sound with a wreck avoidance system. In the event that players can't manage to use the Rider Reflex control system to right themselves as they come back to earth, this automatic system provides a last chance to avoid the disaster by alerting you to your danger with an onscreen arrow as the ground rises to meet you. Players must quickly flick the right stick in the direct of the arrow for the rider to regain his balance and keep on going. But expect to be challenged. If you are too slow you will wreck, and the harder the impact the less time you have to react. Terrain Featuring a new terrain engine, MX vs. ATV: Reflex provides unprecedented terrain deformation that create ever-changing courses as off-road vehicles carve lines and deep ruts that have a real-time impact on gameplay and remain persistent through the full length of each race. Ride With Your Favorite Motocross Stars More than just a game, MX Vs ATV: Reflex allows players to share the track and race against their favorite top athletes in professional motocross and supercross. Just a few of the top riders that players can expect to cross paths with include, James Stewart, Ricky Carmichael, Jeremy McGrath, Josh Grant, Ryan Villopoto and many more. Key Features Rider Reflex Battle for position with new independent rider and vehicle control. Wreck avoidance system lets you wrestle your ride back from the verge of catastrophe – if you can. Terrain Real-time deformation continuously changes the track beneath you with every lap. Dig up the track and force the competition to carve a new race line. New terrain engine provides unprecedented driving surface detail never achieved in any other racing game. Stunts Dual controls let you tear it up with death-defying stunts and high-flying freestyle action. Intuitive gestures in the Reflex tricks system lets you push the limits to pull off the most extreme stunts ever. Vehicles New event specific MX bikes, ATVS, super buggies and trucks. Flaunt your latest battle scars as truck body panels shatter and break away. Customize and tune the fiercest MX bikes and ATVs. Multiplayer The mayhem never ends as you string together your own series of events. Streamlined 12 player multiplayer interface lets you challenge your friends and brings players of all skill levels together with competitive mini-game.

BECOME THE RIDER. Dual controls separates man from machine to give unparalleled precision and ability to perform death-defying stunts. Grip tight and hang on, racing has been redefined. LEAVE YOUR MARK. Battle for position and avoid catastrophic disaster as you blitz through motocross mayhem. Fight for traction and dig up the track to force the competition to carve new race lines.
