pennytwo says "Best for stocking up and small business, large family..." about Sam's Club

pennytwo — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 19:26:23 GMT

Sam's is a good place to shop for certain items. You need to be wiling to stock up and spend more to save money over time. Not a good place for a quick visit of any type. You can buy better quality items sometimes for the same or less money that that brand would usually sell for. Small business owners and large families can realize savings here. Some nice gift items too. Good place for folks that smoke to buy their expensive items too. Not a place to shop where you need helpful or knowledgeable sales folks....

pennytwo says "Good cook book but needs to be bigger or contain more recipes.." about Forrest Gump: My Favorite Chocolate Recipes Mama's Fudge, Cookies, Cakes, and Candies

pennytwo — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 19:19:13 GMT

I have two of the Forrest Gump cook books, this one and the shrimp recipes. More of a novelty than a true search the cook book type of book, great if you are a movie collector or great fan of the movie, of course, or a cookbook collector. Good recipes but the books is too slender and therefore doesn't have enough variety. More photos would have greatly improved it too. Hard to mess up any type of chocolate recipe....

pennytwo says "Match the photo paper brand to the printer, for best results" about Hewlett Packard Photo Paper, Premium, 4"x6", Glossy, 60/Pack

pennytwo — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 19:10:55 GMT

I have two photo printers right now, an HP and a Canon. I get the best results by matching the photo paper brand to the printer. I have had some hit and miss results with non name brand papers and generic ink refills too. In the past, I have owned an Epson photos printer too and had the poorest overall result with that model. I think the Canon is best overall with the HP coming in second. I stock up on photo paper when its on sale too so I get good economy or cost per print.

pennytwo says "Still one of best presents EVER..." about Apple iPod Video 80 GB White (MA450LLA/K3) Digital Media Player

pennytwo — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 19:03:50 GMT

Such a good music and video player that you take it for granted right from the start. Very useful for travel of all types. Makes a lower scale hotel room more entertaining too, when the choices are limited. I travel by car and commute so I use my iPod all the time. I also like the iTunes method of buying individual songs, video, tv shows, movies etv instead of buying the whole CD or album. The IPod is also a good way to carry a library for two or more peoples tastes.....

pennytwo says "Very expensive but very comfortable, a big ticket item...." about Tempurpedic Classic Mattress

pennytwo — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 18:56:55 GMT

Seem my other reviews, we didn't pruchase the Tempurpedic but wanted to. Very expensive and beyond our budget. If back problems worsen or budgets expands, I would buy one of these. I would also love to buy one for my Mom as it would increase her comfort greatly. I was able to try the mattress at the downtown Houston Sheraton, a good trial idea before you splurge for one of these.

pennytwo says "Good all around choice for the price" about Simmons Beautyrest - Black Rosalyn Mattress

pennytwo — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 18:51:39 GMT

Not the most expensive but certainly not the least. Very good and comfortable choice. Seems silly but go and try all the mattresses before you spluge and buy a really expensive one. You can use a hotel stay to mattress shop too as I got to try a Tempurpedic brand at at a Houston Sheraton downtown. This Simmons is a better price value wise compromise than the very high end mattresses.
