AmazinFan says "Compact, lightweight, easy and fun to use" about iphone - 16GB Cell Phone Cell Phone

AmazinFan — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 22:41:09 GMT

So I finally broke down and bought an iPhone. The new 3G model. I can't decide what I lik best about it. Everyday it's something new. I like the full qwerty keyboard and that I can flip the phone to enlarge the view. I like that the phone allows multiple numbers to be stored for the same person. No more having to find different names to use for home, cell, work, etc. Also allows for storage of more than one email address to go along with the various phone numbers.

Downloading my own music was a bit tricky and mistakes are costly ($.) Also, if you want to download a specific ringtone you have to buy the music twice so that was a bit of a turnoff for someone who loves to have different ringtones for everyone in my phone.

AmazinFan says "Windex Outdoor Window Cleaner is convenience with attitude" about Windex Outdoor All-In-One Window Cleaner

AmazinFan — Thu, 28 May 2009 01:40:47 GMT

I was a bit skeptical because I've tried outdoor window cleaners before and was never satisfied with the results. But I decided to use the money saving coupon I found and try this new Windex product. The window mop works great. Very easy to use, very nice clean windows without the all day project fuss.

Thank you Windex for remembering that not everyone is over 6' tall, likes to climb ladders or has someone to do the outside windows for them. This is a product with serious cleaning and no mess in mind.. Attitude gotta love it.

AmazinFan says "Very good for home use and protecting your personal information " about Fellowes Powershred®SB-97CS Shredder

AmazinFan — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 00:56:01 GMT

Over the years I have purchased several shredders for home use and have never found one I was truly happy with, until I purchased Fellowes brand. This is a shredder capable of handling up to 12 sheets at a time. With its cross-cut design your personal, confidential papers will be useful to anyone trying to steal your identity.

However, since I am a bit hard to please I have to admit I do find it very cumbersome to empty the basket without making somewhat of a mess in the surrounding area. The basket is a very generous size making it great for not having to be emptied too frequently, but the drawback is a full basket that is difficult to manage without help.

AmazinFan says "Hong Kong Cafe offers excellent service, food, prices." about Hong Kong Cafe - Stratford, CT

AmazinFan — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 23:03:46 GMT

Hong Kong Cafe has been voted Connecticut's Best Restaurant in previous years. This is a small, quaint little place with a huge atmosphere, exceptional good food at really reasonable prices. It is a family owned, operated business and is always busy. Located on Main St in the Paradise Green section of Stratford, this is the place to go for fresh Chinese food whether it be lunch or dinner. They are open 7 days a week. You can eat in or take out. No delivery, but the food is definitely worth the drive there. Lots of free parking in the back lot, across the street or in front....

AmazinFan says "Best All Purpose Plant Food " about Scotts Miracle-Gro All Purpose Plant Food

AmazinFan — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 00:08:03 GMT

Miracle Grow All Purpose Plant Food is a must have staple in my gardening shedding. 3 years ago my husband and I undertook the enormous project of re-landscaping our entire yard to get ready for a garden wedding/reception. We planted new everything and my husband took great pride in watering and weeding the new plants, shrubs, flowers, bulbs and grass. I will admit I was not expecting much by the summertime wedding, because he bought all small plants, and flowers. By the time the wedding rolled around we had a thick green lush lawn, very healthy sturdy large plants, and bright vivid flowers, beautiful in bloom tulips, gladiola's, etc. I was shocked how quickly everything grew.

Every guest commented how gorgeous our yard looked. In fact even today, some 3 years later people still comment about how beautiful and healthy our plants look. All this thanks to my husband's tender care for our yard.

Little did I know at the time, he was watering every day using Miracle Grow. ...

AmazinFan says "Best thing to happen to TV since color" about AT&T - UVerse Service

AmazinFan — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 23:55:42 GMT

I recently switched from my local cable provider to Uverse and could not be happy. After years of paying high monthly fees for programming that I did not want I finally found a provider that offers me everything for a very reasonable monthly price. I love the DVR ability, the exceptional terrific picture quality and of course the cost. ...

AmazinFan says "Comfortable but small rooms. " about Doubletree Hotel Little Rock - Little Rock, AR

AmazinFan — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 21:34:15 GMT

I recently (April 2008) stayed at the Doubletree Hotel in Little Rock AR while on business. The hotel was undergoing major renovations on the top 3 floors of the hotel. The rooms are small, but comfortable. Although the hotel proclaims to be environmentally friendly I did not find that to be true. Although I asked that my bed linens and towels not be changed daily they always were. I went as far as to make my bed, but housecleaning unmade it and changed the sheets. I refolded my used towels and put them back on the rack only to find all new towels when I came back that evening. However vacuuming was not done the entire week I was there. The hotel restaurant is a bit pricey and has a somewhat limited offering. Breakfast buffet was very unorganized and not well planned. They have a tendency to run out of the main entree (scrambled eggs) and restocking is a long wait a luxury not available if you have a morning meeting to make or a plane to catch....

AmazinFan says "Largest No Kill Shelter - Lots of pets looking for forever homes" about North Shore Animal League - Port Washington, NY

AmazinFan — Sun, 30 Dec 2007 02:30:58 GMT

Over the years I have made the 3 + hour drive to Port Washington several times and each time I have found the perfect puppy/dog to fit into my home. I have brought my current dog(s) with me so that once I found a dog I liked I could make sure they would bond with the new addition. My shelter dogs have been blessings to me and my home. Each has been a treasure to own. Although it is very difficult to leave with only one, there are so many choices and each tugs at your heart. The adoption cost is minimal (currently $130) and a donation is always appreciated, but the money spent is well worth the investment. You will have a faithful, devoted companion that will be grateful to you each and every day. The actual adoption process is a bit slow and cumbersome (especially if you have been through it before.) If you decide to rescue a dog or cat, puppy or kitten plan on spending at least 3 hours at the shelter from the time you enter the building to the time you leave with...

AmazinFan says "Terrific- inexpensive all in printer. Incredibly quiet operation" about Lexmark X1240 All in One Printer

AmazinFan — Sun, 30 Dec 2007 02:06:33 GMT

Don't be fooled by the low price. This is one incredibly great all in one printer. It is very quiet, very easy to set up and use and produces outstanding copies. The scanning function is also very easy to use and again produces great looking images. Ink cartridges, black and color are standard and are available every where. This is a definite buy.

AmazinFan says "Outstanding service. No hassles. Absolutely the best company." about Nationwide Insurance

AmazinFan — Wed, 21 Nov 2007 07:49:27 GMT

I have tried several auto insurance carriers over the years, and have found Nationwide to be the best of them all. With five drivers in the house, I have never had to hassle with Nationwide about any claim. I have always received courteous, friendly service from every Nationwide agent or representative with whom I have spoken. And unlike some other companies who raise your premiums because of an accident or ticket, I can honestly say Nationwide has NOT raised any of our rates. I would recommend Nationwide without hesitation to anyone who needs auto insurance. ...
