dogzzz says "A very nice body wash." about Dove Body Wash

dogzzz — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 20:58:43 GMT

I am so glad that I discovered Dover body wash. Dove body wash is a wonderful product for dry or sensitive skin. I have dry and itchy skin, especially in the winter months. Most soaps just seem to make my skin worse. Dove Body Wash sooths my dry skin and I do not feel itchy after a shower. Unlike most moisturizing body washes that I have tried, Dove seems to rinse clean without leaving a sticky or moist feel on the skin. The body wash really does not lather, so if you are looking for more of a soap, it is probably not for you.

The scent is very mild, but pleasant. My husband also likes to use the Dove body wash, so it is nice that it is not perfumy or strong scented. The main downside to the Dove body wash is the price...it typically runs over $6 a bottle in most stores around here. The plus is that one bottle will last and last.

I highly recommend Dove body wash to anyone with dry skin. It leaves you feeling clean without overdrying your skin. A+++++

dogzzz says "Great value!" about Simply Basic Romantics Sweet Pea Body Lotion

dogzzz — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 20:50:41 GMT

I have to admit, I love my Bath and Body products...not always in the budget though. I am so thankful that I discovered the Simply Basics line at Wal Mart stores. The SImply Basics line of products is found in the beauty section at Wal Mart. The line includes lotions and bath products...all of which are wonderful!!! There are a variety of scents too...such as Sweet Pea and Moonlight Way. I cannot tell the scents from the actual Bath and Body line which is available at a much higher price. The Sweet Pea body lotion has a wonderful and lasting scent...not overpowering though. The lotion iself is fantastic. It sooths even the dryest skin and leaves a touch of scent. This scent is available in many different products and the lotion comes in several sizes which is great for travel. The only downside is that this is only available at Wal Mart. A huge plus for me is that this product is not tested on animals! I would highly recommend this product as well as any of the other...

dogzzz says "A great microwave for the price!" about GE Microwave - Spacemaker JVM1540

dogzzz — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 20:42:28 GMT

I have owned this GE microwave for about two years and have been extemely happy with the product. We are a family of two and are usually on the go...we use a microwave a whole lot cooking the majority of our dinners and reheating meals. This microwave does a great job of evenly heating food. The turntable in the microwave ensures that the food is cooked more evenly. There are lots of cooking options and defrost options which are a wonderful plus with a busy schedule. The only problem we have had is that this microwave seems to not heat as quickly if it has been used for several minutes. This is not a huge issue, we found we just need to add to the cooking time if heating back to back microwave dinners. The interior of the microwave is a good size, I have not had any problems with not being able to fit plates and bowls in this microwave. I would have liked to see more color choices, we ended up with a white which would not have been my first pick. But, for the price, I...

dogzzz says "How did I ever live without this?" about Keurig B-60

dogzzz — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 20:35:12 GMT

Keurig coffee makers are fantastic!!! I am not sure how I ever lived before I bought this. It is so convenient, something like 30 seconds for a cup of coffee...and not just any coffee, fantastic gourmet coffee. Before I owned a Keurig, I hate to think of how much coffee I wasted...I would crave a cup of coffee in the afternoon and make a pot, only to drink one cup and end up wasting the rest. I have heard complaints that the k-cups are expensive, but I have found the price to be reasonable when compared to wasting most of a pt of coffee or a visit to the gourmet coffee shop. The k-cups are becoming much easier to find, both in stores and on-line...you can even find free shipping at many on-line retailers. The selection and variety of k-cups offered is also improving...there are so many varieties of coffees, teas, and hot chocolate to choose from. The coffee maker itself is amazing, it is a little noisy, but well worth it for a great cup of coffee in about 30 seconds!

dogzzz says "Don't waste your money." about Victor Live Catch Mouse Traps

dogzzz — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 20:28:37 GMT

I live in an old far house and mice are a never ending battle. I have purchased just about every trap on the market and spent a fortune trying to mouseproof our home. I try to opt for humane mouse traps as I would prefer to release the mice somewhere where they will not bother anyone. I purchased several of these traps. I place some cracker crumbs in each trap to help to lure the mice. The traps were difficult to set as they kept on closing, but I did finally manage to get them set. The next morning, I was happy to see the traps worked at catching mice, but was extremely disappointed to see that the mice had all escaped. The traps have a small hole in the plastic that allows the mice to chew the trap. It doesn't take much for a mouse to chew its way out of a trap. I was just glad this happened before I loaded the traps into the car to take the mice to be released. I will not purchase these traps again and would not recommend them, unless you just want to offer mice...

dogzzz says "This trap really works." about Peid Piper International Mice Cube

dogzzz — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 22:08:02 GMT

We live on a farm in an old farm house. Mice are a never ending battle. Before discovering Mice Cubes I tried pretty much every humane live catch mouse trap on the market with very limited success. With most traps, I found that the mice would not enter or would escape with a free meal. A few live catch traps are designed so the mouse can manage to chew out in no time. The Mice Cube trap is wonderful, the mouse cannot escape and it seems chew proof.

Mice Cubes are inexpensive and so simple to use. I buy the cheese crackers at the store for less than $1 and crumble one in the trap. The door is a one way door, so the mouse cannot escape once in the trap. Another wonderful thing about these traps is how easy it is to release the mouse. To release the mouse all you do is turn the trap upside down and the door will open.

The only down side to these traps is that they are difficult to clean. I have soaked them in bleach water and tried all sorts of things, but after a...
