Sam and his friends go on a treasure hunt set up by Clare, his babysitter.
A beloved chapter book full of adventure, mischief, and chocolate popsicles, from Newbery Medal-winning author Betsy Byars! One Saturday, Jackson and his best pal, Goat, hide treasures for each other to find with maps and clues—and it’s so much fun that the boys decide to do it all over again. Only this time, the hunts will be trickier, and the prizes will be outstanding. But somehow, the best treasure of all disappears from its hiding place. Only one person could be responsible: the ogre, also known as Goat’s older sister, Rachel. Can the two friends find the treasure before the ogre gets the last laugh?
The essential follow-up to the BusinessWeek bestseller Trading Up A BMW in a Costco parking lot? A working class family with a 50-inch plasma TV? What's going on in the mind of the new consumer? Today's consumers can seem impossible to understand, and even harder to please. For instance, the average mall shopper will spend about $100, then leave when she hits that limit. She'll probably buy shoes rather than clothing, because she doesn't want to think about her dress size. And the store most likely to get her money isn't the one with the nicest display or the deepest discounts-it's the one closest to her parking spot. In his consulting with dozens of leading companies, Michael J. Silverstein has interviewed thousands of customers, extracting fascinating patterns about what really drives their purchase decisions. His first book, the acclaimed bestseller Trading Up, has taught a generation of marketers about the "new luxury" phenomenon, and why consumers will happily pay a steep premium for goods and services that are emotionally satisfying, from golf clubs to bathroom fixtures to beauty products. But Trading Up revealed only part of the story of the new consumer. The same middle-class people who are happily trading up at Victoria's Secret and Panera are going on treasure hunts at Costco and Home Depot. And they are often getting as much emotional satisfaction in the discount stores as in the luxury stores. TREASURE HUNT shows how even the most mundane shopping-for things like paper towels and pet food-has become an adventure rather than a tedious chore. In just about every category, both the high end and the low end are growing and innovation- rich. Many middle-class consumers gladly spend $5 a day for a Starbucks venti latte; others spend forty cents a day on home-brewed coffee, feel good about their frugality, and save up the difference to buy Apple's newest Nano. TREASURE HUNT explains the success of companies as diverse as Dollar General, H. E. Butt, eBay, Commer
Have you ever wished you had a wise old mentor who could tell you where to go next in your career or your life? An “Obi-Wan Kenobi”-type of figure who could not only offer specific advice on handling day-to-day decisions, but could guide you to the people and places that would make a difference in your life and career? In Treasure Hunt, written by a successful Silicon Valley entrepreneur and investor, we can learn to tune into messages that are coming to us all the time from the hidden worlds. These messages, which take the form of synchronicity, hunches, gut feelings, visions, feelings of déjà vu, bodily sensations, and even in our dreams while we are awake or asleep, are like clues in our own personal Treasure Hunt. By learning to the use the Clue Lifecycle, these clues can provide concrete guidance in our personal lives, our jobs, our career decisions and our investments. Where do these “clues” come from? Whether they are from our “inner mentor”, from our “future selves”, or from our spiritual guides, they can help us to uncover our hidden “Treasure Map”, which shows us the work we were meant to do in this life and the path to get there. Turn your career into a Treasure Hunt and find true meaningful success in the business and spiritual worlds.
