      <title>flanagan says &quot;A Very Affordable Navigator&quot; about Garmin - Nuvi 200</title>
      <link>http://www.viewpoints.com/Garmin-Nuvi-200--186189-review-95024</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Garmin - Nuvi 200 is one of the best, yet affordable (currently ~$179), GPS navigators that have been available to the consumer nowadays. It comes with the an adapter for your car charger, a &lt;em&gt;dashboard&lt;/em&gt; holder (not recommended on the windshield in the State of California), the&#160;latest 2008 (now-2009) map for the USA and&#160;it has a slot for the memory card (not included). The memory card can be used to update maps, upload photos or other miscellanous information to the unit as needed.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;Garmin - Nuvi 200 is so easy to install and use. One does not have to be a techie to use it.&#160;The unit is also portable, in that one can simply carry it while walking. Unlike the ones that come installed in some cars and cost a ridiculous $1500.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;One of the major cons of this product is that it has been &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;discontinued&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;. The 2008 version has maps for the US only.&#160;I heard the 2009 map includes Canada as well. Although it has been updated recently, new changes have been added to the maps. Therefore, one&#160;would need...&lt;/p&gt;... </description>

      <title>flanagan says &quot;A Great Anti-Dandruff Shampoo&quot; about Head &amp; Shoulders Smooth and Silky Anti Dandruff Shampoo 14.2 oz</title>
      <link>http://www.viewpoints.com/Head-Shoulders-Smooth-and-Silky-Anti-Dandruff-Shampoo-14-2-oz-review-e1053</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;I have been using Head and Shoulders Smooth and Silky shampoo for so many years now and I think this is one of the best shampoo and hair conditioner products in the market.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;Head and Shoulders Smooth and Silky is an excellent shampoo that recondition and vitalizes&#160;your hair with every use. I have been using it to get rid of my dandruff, which I tend to get every few days due to my dry scalp. This shampoo helps my hair look shinier, cleaner and smoother every time I shampoo.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;Head and Shoulders Smooth and Silky shampoo looks great to the eye and also smells good. It has been manufactured by a big and well-established company. So, although the packaging may suggest the user may contact their doctor, there is really no need for that as the product is quite safe for all types of users, small and big.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;The price is very competitive (~$6) but sometimes this shampoo comes with other offers, which make it very affordable to almost everyone.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;The only downside to this shampoo is that it has not...&lt;/p&gt;... </description>

      <title>flanagan says &quot;One of the Worst Credit Cards&quot; about Credit One - Credit One</title>
      <link>http://www.viewpoints.com/Credit-One-Credit-One-review-77126</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Credit One is one of the worst type of credit cards that have been available to consumers with no, or bad, credit history.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;This card can easily be applied for through their website, but at what expense? Once you get the first bill, you will find out that you have been charged all kinds of fees:&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Enrollment Fee ($69)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Annual Membership Fee ($69)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;Annual Percentage Rate of &lt;strong&gt;(23.90%)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Online Payment Fee&lt;/strong&gt; ($7.95) (they even charge you to pay your balance!)&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;Late Payment Fee &lt;strong&gt;($32)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;Very, very low Credit Limit ($250 in CA!)&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;Credit One does not have a good customer service either, since they take &quot;risky&quot; consumers. They do not have any phisical banks or financial branches available to their customers. So, they only way to do business with this company is by calling them.&#160;If you call their center, they do not have any professional system in place. In that the customer would have to call and wait for someone to pick up the phone, rather than the other financial institutes where you expect a modern,...&lt;/p&gt;... </description>

      <title>flanagan says &quot;A Great Value for Your Buck&quot; about Britax Marathon</title>
      <link>http://www.viewpoints.com/Britax-Marathon-review-92484</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Britax Marathon car seat provides a great safety for the baby.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;This brand name&#160;is very known for their quality, durability and great value for the money. Marathon car seats are manufactured with the little rider's safety in mind.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;I have been using their (2) car seats since my baby was&#160;1 year old, and I intend to keep using them until she hits year 6! I have never had any problems with the seats.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;All Britax car seats&#160;come equipped with the factory manual for an easy installation. Yet, better, they come with a one year warantee that you can come handy, in very rare cases, if something goes wrong with the car seat.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;Britax Marathon car seats are very trendy, nice looking and they haven't been subjected to any recalls so far.&#160;They performed way above their competitors' safety check testing and have proven to be the best out there in the market.&lt;/p&gt;&amp;#13;
&lt;p&gt;This comes with a little extra cost. They tend to cost more than the rest of the other car seats and they also tend to keep their resale value!...&lt;/p&gt;... </description>
