ashb915 says "Bounce Dryer Bar makes laundry day easier!" about Bounce Dryer Bar

I received a free Bounce Dryer Bar from work and will never go back to dryer sheets! I either forget to put dryer sheets in or add too many and waste them. I also seem to have them all over my place after a day of doing laundry so the idea of not having to deal with them anymore made me very happy.

I simply made sure that I had the bar stuck on securely before my first load and have had no issues with the bar coming off at all. It leaves my clothes smelling great and there is no static issues.

The Bounce Dryer Bar is a time saver, money saver, and it is even better for the planet!

Matt says "The Posse Foundation identifies and builds tomorrow's leaders " about The Posse Foundation

The Posse Foundation identifies public high school students with extraordinary academic and leadership potential who may be overlooked by traditional college selection processes. Posse's partner colleges and universities award Posse Scholars four-year, full-tuition leadership scholarships. These Scholars graduate at a rate of 90 percent and make a visible difference on campus and throughout their professional careers.

About a year ago I got involved with a not for profit organization called The Posse Foundation that is headquartered in New York but also has a Chicago Chapter. The Posse Foundation was inspired by the simple insight that scholarship students from inner city schools often have a hard time college because they do not have the same support system that other kids do. Posse seeks to address this issue through a unique process that identifies through nomination 2,000+ kids throughout a city (in this case Chicago) and then puts them through a variety of very interesting and...

Matt says "The KindleDX is even better than the original Kindle" about Amazon Kindle DX

I have owned a Kindle since it originally came out but only used it a few times while on vacation. Then recently a friend bought me the Kindle DX as a present and I have to say, I like it much better than the original Kindle. The largest display really helps me feel like it is more like a book than the smaller format did. I also really like how it displays the percentage completion. I find that to be an excellent motivator to keep reading.

The display is great and very easy on the eyes. I have also been using black leather cover and a itty bitty book light both of which really enhance the experience.

For anyone who is on the edge about the Kindle DX, I highly recommend it!
