If You Are A Vet Macy's Has Got Your 6

Macy's has teamed up with the organization Got Your 6 to help contribute to their organization in a super easy way that benefits you too - When you shop at Macy’s between May 12th and June 9th, you can buy a pin for just $3 to Got Your 6 at the register and in return, will receive a 15/20% savings pass for any day you choose (exclusions apply.) You can also donate $6 to Got Your 6 and receive a golden Got Your 6 pin to wear your support, as well as the savings pass. Click here to find out more. And if you go on Saturday, June 1st Macy’s shoppers will receive a 25% shopping pass when they donate at least $3 to Got Your 6.

The goal of Got Your 6 is for us "regular citizens" to find a way to show appreciation for those who have served. This includes a focus on what they call the "Six Pillars" Jobs, Education, Health, Housing, Family and Leadership. The term " Got Your Six" is a military term that means I've got your back, and I know you've got mine, as emphasized in their current PSA. Sounds like very Well Met goals to me!

So buy a pin and shop for you, join their Facebook page, and thank a current military member or veteran by telling them you've "got their 6". It's especially appropriate this time of year with National Armed Forces Day and Memorial Day coming up.

City Lights Cans Water. Why its better than bottles.

You may have seen the new trend for packaged water with brands like Liquid Death. Now a local brewery, City Lights Brewery , is getting in on the act. Except its not just an act, its not some fad, there are reasons to can vs. bottle water. Good reasons.

Make Men's Health Month About You

The month of November is (one of the) Men's Health Month(s), popularized by the Movember movement. (June is another recognized annual event but since it is November now, November it is.) It's a great foundation, it has been successful and is highly rated for its impact. But, one thing I see with the movement is that while they speak about men's health to the participants, I feel the participants themselves promote it outwardly rather than inward, at them. I personally fell victim to that selfsame issue, but no longer. As of this November, I am taking care of myself.
