jmstroh03 says "Highly Disappointed - Don't waste your time" about The Spirit

jmstroh03 — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 21:47:48 GMT

I heard the The Spirit was going to be alot like Sin City, so I was very eager to watch it. However, it didn't take long to realize that it was not going to be one of my favorites. There are several similarities between the two, like mostly black and white and based on comic books, but The Spirit is not near as attention grabbing. The Spirit had less of a plot and was at several times, very cheesy. I fell asleep at the end of the movie and returned it without watching the ending. I really don't feel like I missed anything. I really enjoy watching movies, but I would pass on this one.

jmstroh03 says "Price is great, but pros stop there" about Luvs Diapers

jmstroh03 — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 21:38:34 GMT

I am trying different diapers to see what works best for my son. A friend of mine suggested I try Luvs. The price was less than Pampers and Huggies, so I thought I would give it a try. When I opened the package, I was highly disappointed. I was thinking "are you kidding me?" They are thin, flimsy, and not very soft. I was thinking "if these hold up and don't leak, it will be a miracle." Well, guess what, no miracle. They had much less absorbancy than Huggies or Pampers. Both Huggies and Pampers are way softer, thicker, and more absorbant. I know that Luvs are less expensive, but spend a little more and purchase a diaper that does it's job.

jmstroh03 says "Amazing product" about Mr Clean Magic Eraser

jmstroh03 — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 21:29:17 GMT

The Mr. Clean magic eraser is one of the best inventions in a long time. I absolutely love this product. I was cleaning my bathroom the other day and I was using scrubbing bubbles to clean my bathtub. After the fifth round with the scrubbing bubbles, I was about to give up on some of the grime in the bottom of my tub. Then I decided to try the magic eraser, and let me tell you, it worked just like magic - the first time. Every time I use this product, I am simply amazed.

jmstroh03 says "Not what I expected" about St. Ives Apricot Facial Scrub

jmstroh03 — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 21:24:19 GMT

I thought the St. Ives Apricot Facial Scrub was going to be the perfect all in one product, but was somewhat disappointed. First of all, it doesn't clean my face well at all. I know that is not it's main function, but I thought it was going to do this well, too. It does exfoliate, but not as fast and as well as I was hoping. Plus, it does feel alot like rubbing sandpaper on your face. I also thought that the scrub wouldn't feel quite so rough. It doesn't break my skin out and I use it about every other day. I do have to use a moisturizer (which I normally do anyway) on my face after using this product. I know it is inexpensive, but I think I am going to spend a little more money next time and maybe I will find a better product.

jmstroh03 says "Does a Great Job - Highly Recommended" about Hoover Steamvac Carpet Cleaner Vacuum

jmstroh03 — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 21:13:42 GMT

We purchased our Hoover Steamvac carpet cleaner a few years ago and it still works as well as the first time we used it. It gets used several times a year at our house, as we have 2 small children and lots of messes. It is very easy to use. We not only use it for our carpets, but also on our linoleum. It does a much better job than a mop. My husband's parents borrowed it and liked it so much that they went and bought one for themselves. The price makes very affordable. It pays for itself after only a few cleanings. It is a good size also - the same size as a vacuum - so it doesn't take up alot of space. I would recommend this carpet cleaner to anyone and everyone.

jmstroh03 says "Great carpet cleaner for the price" about Hoover Steamvac - Silver Vacuum - F59150900

jmstroh03 — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 20:41:34 GMT

We bought this from Wal-Mart and it did awesome on our carpets. My grandfather has a Bissell that we normally use and we have also rented a Rug Doctor, but the Hoover cleaned our carpets much better than the other two. We even had family members comment that "I have never seen your carpets this clean." It is definitely worth the money. The water tank is very easy to remove, empty, and refill and having seperate tanks for the clean and dirty water is also nice. This machine also seemed much quieter than other machines we have used. This machine is also great at sucking up the water. It didn't leave your carpets saturated like some carpet cleaners do. I would recommend this carpet cleaner to anyone!...

jmstroh03 says "Great Entertainment - you aren't as smart as you think you are" about Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?

jmstroh03 — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 19:09:34 GMT

I really enjoy watching this TV show. I find it very intriguing to see what 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders are learning that most adults either don't know or have forgotten from their elementary school days. There are always questions that i don't have a clue about the answer, but all the kids on the show answer correctly right away. It really goes to show that if you don't use your knowledge, you lose it. Very entertaining....

jmstroh03 says "Not worth the time" about Good Luck Chuck

jmstroh03 — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 16:09:05 GMT

This movie was extremely cheesy, corny, and just downright stupid. I thought it was a complete waste of my time and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone....

jmstroh03 says "Great snack for little ones" about Gerber Graduates Finger Food Fruit & Veggies Puffs

jmstroh03 — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 22:00:54 GMT

We love puffs at my house! I think my daughter has tried every flavor and has yet to find one that she doesn't like. These are so great to keep in the diaper bag and also great because she can feed them to herself. They dissolve easily, so she doesn't choke on them. They are not messy at all, so we give them to my daughter everywhere we go. I can give them to her in the car and know that she is not going to mess up her clothes or get her car seat messy. We have bought our fair share of these and I know we have many more to buy in our future....

jmstroh03 says "Worth every penny" about Fisher Price Rainforest Cradle Swing

jmstroh03 — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 21:48:17 GMT

I can not say enough about this swing. Love it, Love it, Love it! We had the fisher-price aquarium swing (loved it too) and were going through 4D batteries a week, so we invested in this swing instead, since you can plug it in. My daughter is now 15 months old and has been in this swing everyday since we have owned it. We even take it with us when we travel overnight. She takes the majority of her naps in the swing and uses it every night to fall asleep. She has probably outgrown it, but I don't know what we will do without it. My dad keeps joking that soon her feet are going to drag to the floor. She loves the swinging motion, the mobile, the music, just everything!! It just calms her and relaxes her and allows her to fall asleep. I highly recommend this to any parent, 10 times over!...

jmstroh03 says "Easiest way to help the charity of your choice" about GoodSearch

jmstroh03 — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 21:32:39 GMT

This is now my #1 search engine site. I use it every day. This is the easiest way to help the charity of your choice. It takes no extra effot or time on your part and both you and your charity benefit every time you search. Searching is something you are going to do anyway, if you spend any time at all on the Internet, so you might as well be doing it for a good cause. Just choose your charity, mine is St. Jude Research Hospital, and every time you search, a penny is donated to your charity. I know a penny doesn't sound like much, but they really add up!...

jmstroh03 says "Excellent Investment" about Summer Infant Baby's Quiet Sounds Video Monitor

jmstroh03 — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 21:21:07 GMT

This baby monitor was probably one of the best gifts we received. I can put the camera on my daughter and turn on the monitor which is in my bedroom. If I wake up any in the night, I can just look at the monitor to see that she is OK, without walking all the way to her room. Also, if she cries out in the night (which she often does), I can look at the monitor and see if something is really wrong, or if she is just crying in her sleep. Also, sometimes, she will lay in her bed awake and talk, and i can watch the monitor and know when she is OK, and when I actually need to go in her room and check on her. This has saved me so many hours of sleep. It is much easier to go back to sleep if you never actually get out of the bed....

jmstroh03 says "A Roaring Good Time" about Fisher Price Roll-A-Rounds Drop n Roar Dinosaur

jmstroh03 — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 21:12:34 GMT

This is a fantastic toy that we have owned now for almost a year and my daughter, now 15 months, keeps going back to play with it day after day. This is a very durable toy. My daughter has tried sitting on the stairs a few times and has yet to break the bar that goes over the stairs. At first she had trouble with actually dropping the balls in the holes, but she quickly became a pro. She loves the lights and music. This is definitely a good buy and I would absoultely buy it again!

jmstroh03 says "Love it. Love it. Love it." about Fisher Price Laugh and Learn Home

jmstroh03 — Mon, 19 Nov 2007 17:00:46 GMT

My daughter loves this house. She plays with it on a daily basis. She is now 15 months and we have had this toy since she was around 11 months old. I think she will continue to enjoy this toy for many more months before she outgrows it. She knows what all the buttons and different features do. Even though she has been walking for a while, she still enjoys crawling through the front door. I think the mailbox and letters are her favorite part. Great toy! Highly recommended!...

jmstroh03 says "One of the best investments for child entertainment" about Fisher Price Deluxe Jumperoo

jmstroh03 — Mon, 19 Nov 2007 16:50:19 GMT

This is one of my daughter's favorite pre-walking toys. It kept her entertained and always put a smile on her face. Whenever she was in a grumpy mood, we could put her in the jumparoo and she would instantly start jumping and smiling. Also, by putting her in the jumparoo, I could quickly go into the other room and know that she was going to be OK. It allowed me some freedom. However, I know to never leave a child unattended for an extended period of time. I also believe that this toy helped to strengthen my child's leg muscles to help prepare her for walking. I highly recommend this toy to all parents of babies under 1 year of age....
