25% Big Skinny Wallet Coupon

It’s the standard Father’s Day gift - the ubiquitous men’s wallet, and wallet companies are rejoicing. The Big Skinny Corporation is no different, and it’s chancing upon this special day to launch a promotional offer, which I got as an email because I bought a wallet from them in the past.

The Big Skinny is not a bad wallet, but I think I could have been happier with another model or brand. Check out the other wallet alternatives that I researched.

Anyway, if you’re interested in the Big Skinny, you should just get it now because they have a coupon for 25% off classic style models (classic, sports & formal styles). That brings it to only $14.96 instead of the regular price of $19.95 until Father’s Day or while supplies last. The promotion coupon code is FD2008 (non-affiliate coupon).

My bet is that no matter what you’re getting, you should order early so that your gifts can arrive in time. Actually, it does make it interesting because seeing how thin the wallets are, it PROBABLY could fit into a Father’s Day greeting card too.

Edit .htaccess to increase PHP’s max file upload

To increase the upload file size limit on your website, you need to edit PHP’s configuration settings. Unfortunately, not everyone has their own web server, so most of the time people are constrained by the limits of shared hosting. But you can still modify your base php.ini file by creating your own php.ini with the edits that you want.

Your php.ini file needs to be in every folder that’s going to be affected, or at least in the folder where the php script is being called from. Unfortunately if you have dozens of folders that need this edit, then you’ll need dozens of php.ini files.

An alternative is to then use .htaccess. By just placing a.htaccess file in your root folder, all folders beneath it will also have the change. The code to change your PHP max file upload size is:

RewriteEngine On
php_value post_max_size 1000M
php_value upload_max_filesize 1000M
php_value max_execution_time 6000000

You can edit it to suit your needs. 1000M = 1GB, so edit accordingly. Do note that your host will need to allow PHP edits though.
