kcook509 says "The best insurance company" about GuideOne

kcook509 — Sun, 31 May 2009 15:29:50 GMT

I am a newlywed and have been with State Farm Insurance since I turned 16 years old. I was happy with State Farm until I purchased a new car and my insurance went up. I continued paying about $250 a month for car insurance only. After i got married, we decided to see if we could save on my car insurance by switching my insurance from State Farm to Guide One Insurance (which is who my husband uses). We save a whole bunch of money. Our monthly bill is under $100 for both my car insurance and the house insurance. I love saving money (who doesnt theses days). I was absolutely shocked on how much money I have been wasting on auto insurance. I know i got a better deal beacuase my husband has home owners insurance with them. So we qualified for the multi discounts. They are so easy to work with. They are very friendly and I am actually getting more on my policy than I did with stae farm. It haas been a true life (and money) saver. I would recommend them to anyone.

kcook509 says "a money waster" about ChefMate ChefMate Toaster

kcook509 — Wed, 06 May 2009 15:09:55 GMT

I have been reviewing products on this website that I love so I was happy to find something that I dinn't like so much so I could complain for a change. I need to vent about this toaster. I purchased the ChefMate Toaster at target a few months ago because it was on sale and if you have read my other reviews you know that is the only way that I shop. i regretted this purchase big time! It doesnt work good at all a complete waste of money even if I did only pay like ten bucks for it. It could have been ten bucks toward a toaster tha actually toasted . It toasts one side okay not great but the othe side doesn't toast as well. The crumb tray that it was bragging about on the front of the box doesn't even work so there are always crumbs left behind. The dials on the toaster are not accurate. We have tested every possoble setting and we cant find the perfect setting not one even close. We have only had it a couple of months and it already looks old and sounds old . The noise that it makes...

kcook509 says "Great For Kids" about Vtech Vsmile Console

kcook509 — Wed, 06 May 2009 14:57:14 GMT

I am a proud mother of a six year old! I purchased A Vtech Vsmile for her for Christmas about 3 years ago. Although it took her some time to start getting into it and learning that wasmy mistake for buying it early. i am so glad I did. We do not have any other game systemsin the house and i am pretty strict about what information gets to her. She is not allowed to watch that much tv or on the computer but she can play her games as much as she wants to. She has about ten game cartridges so far. We buy her a new one for every birthday or occasion or when they are on sale or clearance. I know Target has them on clearance quite a bit. i always reccommend to friends or family members buying her a gift that it was they need to get her. All the games are fun and educational and have popular characters in the games (which is a good thing). We loved the system so much that we even bought the handheld game which is great for trips or grocery store visits etc. When you buy the game system it comes...

kcook509 says "a great time saver" about Remington Wet 2 Dry Hair Straightener

kcook509 — Wed, 06 May 2009 14:43:56 GMT

I have naturally curly hair but straighten it every day with a flat iron or straigtener. I know all of you people out there with straight hair think i am crazy but it really is true when people have straight they want curly, when they have curly they want straight. Women cant be pleased. I have owned quite a few of them over the years. I have heard that the Wet 2 Dry arent good for your hair but I think it is great! I used to have to wash my hair, conditon my hair, brush the curls out, put a whole bunch of defrizzing creams/junk, blow dry it with a round brush, and it took forever. I finally got the message and said there has got be an easier way. I can not spend about 3 hours to get ready in the mornings any more and I want my straight hair. So I started using flat irons but I would still have to do my morning routine that I mentioned above. it was getting ridiculous because this added about 20 minutes to my ritual. I then saw this Wet 2 dry straigtener on sale (thats about the only...

kcook509 says "A great shampoo for the cost" about Alberto Vo5 Shampoo (All Varieties)

kcook509 — Wed, 06 May 2009 14:29:50 GMT

I think Vo5 is one of the best shampoos out there and it is probably the cheapest. i love the scent of the original and extra body. they have probably been around longer than any of the other shampoos on the market today. I used to pay big bucks for my shampoos and cnoditioners only buying them at department stores or salons like matrix and biolage (which now most drugstores sell the lines). i was over at a friends house and they used this and I tried it and really liked it. Then the next time I was buying shampoo and conditioner I saw the price and was shocked. they are less than $1 at most places. Actually Fred's Dollar Stores has them on sale for 69 cents this week ( so I would stock up if I was you). I have naturally curly hair which I straighten everyday and i do color my hair and this works great on my hair. It feels so clean every time I use it and smellls great . I feel like it actually detangles my hair. When I use it my hair is so much easier to comb through. Most shampoos I...

kcook509 says "The Best razor" about Schick Intuition Razor

kcook509 — Wed, 06 May 2009 14:18:32 GMT

The Shick intuition razor is the best razor I have came across yet. It works so weell and has a moisturizing bar built in around the razor so you don't have to use shaving cream with the razor. it lathers you up automatically. It comes in differnt colors and fragrances. they even make one for sensitive skin types. I love it. the only thing I can think of that I can complain about is the moisturizing bar runs out too fast for me. Which I guess the company knew that and wanted to sell the blades more. Other than that it works so welll! i have tried so many razors from disposable to the refillable type but this one is the best that I have found yet. I only wish the refills lasted longer. they are pretty big so it would seem like they would. The shape of the design is great as well, The handle is very chunky so it doesnt slip out of your hand like most razors do with the skinny handles. The fragrance is great too. my favorite is the green one it smells like cucumber melo but they all smell...

kcook509 says "I love BZZAgent" about BzzAgent.com

kcook509 — Wed, 06 May 2009 12:17:15 GMT

I am a huge fan of BZZAgent. If you love getting freebies and coupons this is a good site for you. It is a little difflcult working your way up the line from status to status but it is worth doing. They send you free products to try. they are not samples of products they are full sized products. They also send you coupons for all kinds of things and on their website they have a list of good websites that you can try out. You can help your status by doing surveys which are fun and not long and boring. you can also write reviews like you can on this site to help other agents learn about the website. it is not a waste of time at all. Everything is very fast except working on your status. It does take awhile for your reports to be accepted. you can also work on your status by referring people, taking polls and posting options on their site. I love it not only for the campaigns where you get free products but learning about all of the good deals that are going on and learning about products...

kcook509 says "The best chocolate ever" about Lindt Lindor Truffles

kcook509 — Tue, 05 May 2009 21:21:51 GMT

Lindt makes the absolute best chocalate in my opion ever. I know they are a little bit more expensive but if you ever have a little bit of extra money to buy I would try some of these if you are in the mood for something sweet and delicious. The outer part is sort of like a shell and inside it has a Melt in your mkouth center. I love the white chocholate ones they are my favorites. I also like the milk chococalte ones. They are both so good. i am not a huge fan of dark chocholate so I have not tried those when I get a bag tht has the mixed ones in it I always give the dark chocholates to my sister and she loves them and she is a picky eater. I do wish they would come down on their prices, though but they are worth every single penny that you pay for them. They remind me a little of Dove chocolate so if you are a fan of Doves than you should absolutely love this little candies. Although Dove is probaly my second choice in the chocolates nothing can even compare to Lindts chocholates....

kcook509 says "A great and cheap Make-Up Remover" about Clean & Clear Make-up Dissolving Facial Cleansing Wipes

kcook509 — Tue, 05 May 2009 21:12:11 GMT

i am a member of the BZZ Agent reports so for those who are familiar some companies will send you products to try and you rate and report the products. i was one of the lucky ones to get These wipes. They sent me about 4 packs of wipes and a full size bottle of the makeup remover in luquid form. I tried it out and immediately fell in love with this product. It works better than anything I have ever tried. I have tried othe clean and clear products but have never been too impressesed I dont have a problem with acne and usually thats what their products are all about. These wipes dissolve the makeup right off your face so there is no scrubbing and scrubbing trying to get the makeup off . you barely touch the wipe to your face and it comes off so easily. I am addicted. I have even gave my mother some and she is addicted so if you think this line is mainly for younger aged people these wipes are not. My mom is in her fifties. i have given samples to people ranged from 12 up into the 60s....

kcook509 says "The Absolute Best Mascara EVER" about Cover Girl Lash Blast Mascara and Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara

kcook509 — Tue, 05 May 2009 21:02:19 GMT

Hello all makeup lovers> I just wanted to give you a little tip in case you have not tried this product yet. I was hesitant to try it at first because I have never been a huge fan of Cover Girl products. For some reason I decided to give it a try and I am so happy I did, I will never use another mascara again or at least until they come out with something better or it gets discontinued ( which as all of us cosmetic junkies know happens more than we would like). It works so well. It does everything you would want a mascara to do (lenghtens, multiplies, does not smudge or clump). It is the absolute best ever! I have tried all of the different kinds the orange tubes of waterproof and non waterproof and also the pink tube that has a shimmering effect to it. I do not like the pink tube as much as I do the orange tube. i went into a CVS they had them BOGO free plus I had $2 off coupons so I stocked up and decided to give the pink tube a try since they were on sale. I wore it on my wedding...

kcook509 says "I llove it" about Visa - Debit Card

kcook509 — Tue, 05 May 2009 20:47:34 GMT

I love my Visa debit card. It comes in so handy when I am online or out in about town. I never leave home without it. One of the perks that I have cam across is Visa extras. You can try to enroll your card there (if your bank permits it) and every dollar you spend creates into a point. Once you save up your points you can spend your points and pick out some of there rewards. It is a great site. It is worth looking into if you have a visa debit card! I absolutely love it. The only down part to the visa rewards is some banks are not participants so you might need to check with your bank prior to enrolling. i believe most banks do participate. i have only found some local credit unions are not particpating as of yet so hopefully eventually all financial institutions will because it is a very good site to get more for your money. So based on all of the major credit or devit cards that i have come across Visa is the absolute best. I have never had a problem with this company and with all the...
