MaryJC83 says "Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop computer has given me many problems." about Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer

MaryJC83 — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 18:23:41 GMT

A friend ordered the Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer for me since my old one was a dinosaur. When I first started using it, it was wonderful not to be slowed down by an old computer. Love the Samsung widescreen. My previous computer actually caught on fire with no warning. Dell was a new area for me. I hesitated on Dell because of all the problems I had heard about, but my friend is a computer person and knew what she was doing.

I have had this computer two years now and it has progressively grown slower and given more problems than I can even list. I've had to wipe the hard drive twice and start over since January of this year. Since I cannot afford a new computer, I'm stuck with working with the Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer.

My computer use to turn on and reach the main page within two minutes. Now it takes almost ten minutes. I don't have a lot of documentation or photos on the computer as I like to save them to a CD.

I worked on a MAC at my previous job and miss it. Unfortunately...

MaryJC83 says "Pantene Prov-V Restoratives Mask works wonders on colored hair." about Pantene Pro-V Restoratives Time Renewal Replenishing Mask

MaryJC83 — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 18:10:34 GMT

During the winter months, my hair was a wild ball of frizz. I know part of that problem is growing older, but I do color my hair. Other conditioners were not doing the trick for me. I saw Pantene Pro-V Restoratives Time Renewal Replenishing Mask and decided to give it a try. My dry color treated hair just drank in the moisture!! The longer I left it on, the more conditioned my hair became. Once a week I wash my hair, put the mask on, wrap it in a towel and read email for about 20 minutes. Then when I wash it out, my hair feels like it is 20 years younger!

The cost of the item is a bit high for me, but it lasts a LONG long time. I would highly recommend trying this Replenishing mask if you color treat your hair on a regular basis. It doesn't flatten the hair, but volumizes it instead.

The smell is light and airy. It is the perfect complement to any shampoo. I would highly recommend it considering the results I've had. I am 48 yrs old. The damage is gone.

MaryJC83 — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 01:33:43 GMT

Was happy to replace the old dinosaur microwave I had. My dad received it as a gift many years ago. I never knew what a difference the Kenmore microwave would make until I used it. Easy to use, cooks thoroughly, and it is a wonderful energy saver. Very pleased....

MaryJC83 says "I paid on time and they increased my interest for no reason! " about Chase - Chase Visa Card

MaryJC83 — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 01:25:23 GMT

My credit card company was purchased by Chase. I saw my monthly payment increase by $10.00 and the interest rate increase even though I've always paid on time. Chase bank received stimulus money and still finds it easy to punish the card holders who pay on time. Not recommend....

MaryJC83 says "Infusium 23 Shampoo for color treated hair is perfect for me!" about Infusium 23 Shampoo for Color Treated/Permed Hair

MaryJC83 — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 01:17:20 GMT

I've gone through a bottle after bottle of shampoos looking for the one that would not strip the color from my hair. The shampoos for color treated hair tended to dry out my hair even more. There was no lather when I used them. I began to think my color treated hair was doomed to use the regular shampoos just for the moisturizing. Not coloring wasn't an option at my age, so I looked further for a better shampoo.

I found Infusium 23 Shampoo for Color Treated Hair on the walmart shelf, had a coupon for discounted price and decided to give it a try. Was I ever surprised in a nice way! THe shampoo was moisturizing, lathered well, and rinsed well. My hair was not stripped of color. The shampoo was WONDERFUL! I still keep it on my BEST SHAMPOOS list and use it when I get a coupon. The bottle goes a long way. Using it with the conditioner makes my hair feel silky and shiny.

I recognized Infusium 23 from their leave in treatment a few years ago and decided to try it for the conditioner and...

MaryJC83 says "Infusium 23 conditioner works wonderfully for colored hair." about Infusium 23 Leave-In Conditioner

MaryJC83 — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 01:10:19 GMT

During my search for the perfect conditioner, I went through very heavy, non-working brand names. I have a collection of conditioner bottles that were not used for long. Then I tried Infusium 23 Conditioner. It was great for my color treated hair and I was thrilled to see they had a conditioner just for that problem. My hair was light, not flat, after use even in the Summer months. With humidity being so bad here, the real solution for us is not use a conditioner during the summer, but with color treated hair you would have the frizzies! So that is not an option for me.

I recognized Infusium 23 from their leave in treatment a few years ago and decided to try it for the conditioner and shampoo. I was nothing but pleased with the conditioner for the color treated hair. Not only did it condition, but it repaired a great deal of over processed hair problems for me. I recommend Infusium 23 conditioner for everyone.

MaryJC83 says "Pantene Volumizing Shampoo Really DOES give volume to hair." about Pantene Volumizing Shampoo

MaryJC83 — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 01:03:18 GMT

I've tried them all...shampoos for hair color, dried hair, name brands, cheap brands. Pantene Volumizing Shampoo has been one of the best shampoos I've found to hold true to their promise. After taking medications for so many years, my hair has grown course, fallen out, and is flat. I use to have full thick hair before illness. After using Pantene Volumizing Shampoo, my poor thinning hair had quite a lift to it. I'm thankful to have found this brand. Pantene has always been a favorite, but when the summer heat sets in, my hair goes flat. Other Pantene shampoos didn't help with the problem. Pantene Volumizing Shampoo did just the trick through the high humid summer months. I am very please with Pantene and their shampoos but would greatly recommend the Pantene Volumizing Shampoo to anyone who is having problem with thin hair and wants their hair to look full....

MaryJC83 says "These really work without the high cost of name brands." about Equate Laxative pills

MaryJC83 — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 00:55:06 GMT

I developed a chronic constipation problem due to all the medications my doctor put me on for a chronic illness. All of the meds caused the constipation. Not finding any relief with fiber pills, stool softeners, etc., I turned to the Equate Laxative Pills. They worked wonderfully! Whenever I have a problem instead of spending more for a name brand, I go to these pills. They have always been reliable and effective. Never had a problem with them.

With the high cost of medications, over the counter meds shouldn't have to be so expensive. I'm thankful to Equate Laxative pills for making them work for someone like me and making them so affordable. I have tried all the over the counter laxative pills, but the expense was way too much. Equate not only makes good over the counter medications, but remembers the consumers need a break in the price department.

I will continue to purchase Equate Laxative Pills for as long as I have a chronic problem.

MaryJC83 says "Visine A.C. Eye Drops are great for allergy season!" about Visine A.C. Eye Drops

MaryJC83 — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 00:43:17 GMT

Living in the South brings blooms year-round. When Spring and Summer come, the pollen and blooms are multiplied. My allergies are usually sinus related, but this Spring I found myself going to the grocery store in search of eye drops to ease the pain of my sore, itchy dry eyes. I tried the cheap over the counter ones, but they did nothing to help. I tried another name brand eye drop, but it didn't help either. So I tried Visine A.C. Eye Drops. I was amazed at how much these drops helped my allergy, dry, itchy eyes.

From now on, I won't leave on any trips or suffer any allergies without my Visine A.C. Eye Drops. They soothed the dryness, got rid of the scratchy sand paper feeling, and helped me sleep so much better.

It is now Spring in the South again and my allergies are in full bloom. Along with taking my allergy meds, I keep the Visine beside my bed. I also keep one in my purse in case I need them on the road.

MaryJC83 says "The Frigidair Dyer electric dryer is very good on electricity!" about Frigidaire Dyer - Electric Dryer - Gallery Series model# GLTF2940FE

MaryJC83 — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 00:18:33 GMT

I found the Frigidaire Dyer - Electric Dryer the perfect solution to my drying needs. Not only does it cut the drying time in half, but it also reduced my electricity consumption. I am very pleased with this purchase and would recommend it. I am not an expert, but I know what I like.

My old dryer ran my electric bill up so high that I finally switched over to the clothes line. Lucky for me, my old 16 yr. old dryer finally bit the dust and I was able to get another dryer. I noticed how much lower my electric bill was while using the Frigidaire Dryer. Never expected that! It was a wonderful surprise. Now I don't hesitate to use it instead of dragging wet clothes out to the line. I have health issues and this was becoming a big strain. The New Frigidaire Dyer - Electric Dryer not only made a huge difference in my drying problems, but I've never been so happy to have one that cuts my electric consumption.
