AND they are at least 30 minutes from my house, so I just flat out could not do that, especially with 3 kids to get off to school - so that was my justification to purchasing this P90x stuff.  Pure and simple it is a boot camp right in your own home.  I have loads of workout DVDs and this one is by far the best one.  Tony Horton will kick your ass and it is hard - but it is easy at the same time.  Nothing that he does is really head sratching, I think that his routines are pretty simple - but you will have to work up to doing some things.  I about died doing a few things,...

HA!  It does a great job!  Every once in a while I have to pull hairs and carpet from the bottom brushes, but not too often.  I have had to replace the hose once because my daughter ripped it (I was pissed!).  I simply ordered it off of dyson.com and I was pleased with the results. I love this...

I didn't know about this one!).  It is now day 13 after I bought this stuff and it still had not come, so I went searching for the phone number on the internet.  Upon finding the phone number (801-208-7485) I also dicovered that 14 days after the order date, you will automatically be billed an additional $90!!!!  I called right then and cancelled everything and told them that I better not see another billing on my card...or else!!  hehehe! — Here is EXACTLY what the website states (BEWARE!!!!): — CAREFULLY...

So it ended up being like $70, which is good since I have already trashed the thing!! —...
