rmotl says "Great variety but COMMERCIALS?!" about XM Satellite Radio

rmotl — Fri, 30 Nov 2007 01:50:56 GMT

I got a 3-month trial of XM Satelite Radio when I purchased a new vehicle. I love that there are sports channels for my husband, kids channels for my little ones and an assortment of channels for me. The one thing that kept me from continuing with XM is that every night on my 12-minute commute to work, I have to listen to 3 minutes of commercials about how to control your disrespectful kids or the wonders of Pro-Active. I expect that from regular radio but I refuse to PAY to hear that garbage. ...

rmotl says "Fantastic change of pace." about Capriotti's Sandwich Shop - Las Vegas, NV

Capriatti's sandwiches are unique, generous in their portions and so delicious. I especially like the cole turkey - serious mounds of turkey breast covered in creamy coleslaw and drizzled with russian dressing. My only complaint is that there aren't more non-casino locations....

rmotl says "Save your money." about Mattel Toss Across Game

This game looks like fun, it's inexpensive and it's a great concept but the product is poorly made. The squares don't turn, the stickers peal and the bean bags leak. Ours became one of those toys that mysteriously disappeared on trash day. All in all, don't waste your money.

rmotl says "Baby loved it - until it was recalled." about Fisher Price Rainforest Baby Swing

My daughter loved this swing - it would have gotten a 5-star rating. Then it was recalled. Now we are without her swing for (going on) 4 months. First we had to "apply" for a voucher to replace/refund the product. After waiting weeks for that, we had to mail part of the swing back to them (at our expense). Now we're waiting for our refund. In the meantime, we had to buy a new swing (more out-of-pocket for us) while we wait for FP to mail us a refund. I'm so disappointed that Fisher Price compromised quality and has made us jump through hoop after hoop to get our refund....
