beachbum says "loved it" about HoMedics HoMedics Shiatsu Massager

beachbum — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 06:50:24 GMT

Awesome product. Love it. I have to put a town over the rollers or it hurts my back but it gives a great massage. Works lower or upper back or full back massage. I use it frequently. Got is as a gift but would pay for it myself just for the relaxing it gives. Everyone in the house uses it and loves it.

beachbum says "Great night moisturizer" about Avon Alternative

beachbum — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 06:43:29 GMT

Avon's Alternative night renewal cream is really good stuff. I have been using it for about a month now. I don't have any wrinkles to see disappear, but it sure leaves my skin feeling really good and is real soft in the morning. Lightly scented. Very creamy but distributes well....

beachbum says "Great Agent representation!" about American Family Insurance

beachbum — Thu, 15 May 2008 18:59:23 GMT

I have been with American Family insurance for more than 10 years now. I have considered the teasers from the other internet insurance companies, but don't want to trade the personal relationship with our agent. When I have a question or need new insurance he is there day or night to help out. They have always been quick to settle a claim and get the ball rolling. I have found they are the best bang for the buck in our area in car and home insurance rates....

beachbum says "Lots of channels but little perks!" about Dish network

beachbum — Sat, 26 Apr 2008 04:08:37 GMT

We have had Dish for 8-9 years you would think with that kind of track record there would be an occasional perk of some kind. NOT! We recently had to replace a reciever and they wanted to charge me full price. Then my dish it's self got messed up and needed replaced that cost me an arm and a leg. I asked why they offer all kinds of specials to new subscibers and nothing to old faithful viewers. They didn't have an answer. I haven't had cable in over 20 years so can't rate its comparison to it. There are lots of channels but is it worth what you pay. Why can't we pick and choice our package to price packages per so many channels? We don't view over half of what I pay for but would love to have others that aren't in my package. Go figure. I guess we like it cause we are still with them though. Getting rebates takes awhile and sometimes many calls to customer service for explaination on why it hasn't been credited. Overall I would say it is a 50-50 draw....

beachbum says "Funky with a real life twist1" about Waitress

beachbum — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 20:15:39 GMT

I was anxiously awaiting the opportunity to watch this movie. The reviews were so good and the clips made it look really funny. It was but it wasn't. I am glad I didn't pay to go see it at the show. But, I did like it. It is a strange movie with a quirky twist. The actors were really good but the story line was a little strange. I would recommend this though. I thought it was a chick flick but can't really be classified as one. It is just one of those movies that you kind of shake your head at but still enjoy....

beachbum says "Easy to set up but graphics are disappointing." about VTech V.Smile Baby System

beachbum — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 20:05:28 GMT

I thought the game was easy to set up but found the graphics of the games really poor. The educational end was great and learning was easy. My daughter likes the games but I am afraid she will grow out of it sooner than I had thought. It is made very durable. I was just expecting a little better product from Vtech.

beachbum says "Very Relaxing " about Happy's Head Trip Therapeutic Scalp Massager

beachbum — Sun, 16 Dec 2007 13:30:04 GMT

I liked this item. I found it very easy to use and very relaxing. It takes a time or two to get the way to use it down, but after I found it really relaxing. Everyone in our house loves it. I got it as a gift after using a friends and so can't speak about the cost....

beachbum says "Quick Way to make a good supper" about Betty Crocker Hamburger Helper

beachbum — Sun, 16 Dec 2007 13:09:45 GMT

I like to keep several boxes of Hamburger Helper in my pantry for the days when I am short on time to make dinner. It is easy to make and you can add other things to personalize it to your families tastes. Everyone gets a nice warm meal that is nutritious and I get a quick fix for dinner and more time to relax with my family....

beachbum says "Ease of Use" about Graco TurboBooster High Back Booster Seat

beachbum — Wed, 21 Nov 2007 12:38:42 GMT

I found this car seat very easy to use. I loved the way it is easy to remove the seat covers for washing. This is great if you like to keep your carseats clean like I do. Also, loved that I could use the back piece or remove it and just use the booster seat. My son loved the cup holders, but I did find that they were difficult to keep cups from spilling over, deeper ones would be wonderful. My son puts his toys in them though so they do get use. The one thing I didn't particularly like was that I found it hard putting the back piece back on after I removed it. Would love to see it attachable in a more user friendly way....
