"Green Dot Visa WASTE Credit Card"

Needing a credit card for an online purchase, I decided that I would try out one of these reloadable credit cards. I wanted to see what the rave was all about. Needless to say, I was less than amused. Ever since I've gotten it, I've had nothing but trouble. In order to receive my actual card, I have to fax a couple of things to the company. No where on the cardboard card does it say I have to send information to the company to confirm my identity. Then I have to wait for them to send me the card before I can make my purchase. Every s...

"Unisom SleepTabs- Sleep Away!"

For that past couple of weeks, I had been having trouble falling and staying asleep. My friend suggested I try Unisom SleepTabs, so she went to bought some at the store. That night, I took the recommended dosage. I had no trouble falling asleep within 30 minutes to an hour after taking the tablet. I slept the whole night through until it was time to wake up the next morning. The only problem I had with Unisom SleepTabs was the side effects. Upon awakening, I realized there was a problem. I couldn't fully wake up! The rest of the day, I f...

"IPod Docking- Ready For Liftoff!"

When I recently received an IPod Nano, I realized that I had NOTHING to place it in so I could listen to it while I'm cleaning or such. So I went to Sears to pick up an IPod docking station when I saw the Jensen Universal iPod Docking Station with Full Scan Radio. I thought it wouldn't be of good quality since it was only $50, but needed something that could make due until I was able to get a nicer docking station. Well, I got home, plugged it in, and plopped my IPod inside. THe sound quality was imaculate, and the ease of using it w...

"Disney Princess Walkie Talkies- No Workies"

I bought my friend's 2 young daughters the Disney Princess Walkie Talkies for their birthday. They were so excited to get it, because now they could talk to each other if they were in another room instead of yelling or running back and forth. They wanted to try it out while I was there and were disappointed at what went wrong. We could only hear static through both handsets and we tried almost every possible length to see which one gaves us better reception. Thinking I had picked up a defective set, I returned it to the store and exchang...

"OTC Zyrtec- 2 Thumbs Down!"

I suffer from terrible allergy problems. This winter, my area has been plagued with high Mountain Cedar counts and my allergies went haywire. I tried over-the-counter allergy medications from Wal-Mart as well was Walgreens. But the side effects left me little desire to continue taking them. I had heard that Zyrtec was a great medication to take and would help almost all symptoms. So I went to Wal-Mart and was floored when they sold Zyrtec over the counter. Though $15 is a little steep for allergy medicine, I was willing to pay that price to ...

"Shania Twain Starlight lights up the night sky!"

I don't enjoy strong perfumes that make you turn away instead of embracing it. When I received Shania Twain's "Starlight" for Christimas, I was a little intimidated. I have heard some nice and not so nice things about this fragrance. So when I needed it, I dabbed a little on myself. My party around me kept asking me what perfume I was wearing, so it gave me a great sense that it wasn't over-powering or not strong enough that you couldn't tell if I was wearing any perfume or not. With some perfumes, the smell can rea...

"Bath Body Works Pleasures"

Having really dry skin the winter and spring, it's hard for me to find lotions that aren't oily/greasy but moisturize my skin. When my friend suggested the "Pleasure" line from Bath & Body Works, I had to see what all the fuss was about. So I picked up the Black Raspberry Vanilla Body Cream. I was a little surprised that it cost me almost $12 for 1 bottle, but I was ready to try anything. The minute I poured some in my hand, the aroma of black raspberry and vanilla filled my noise. It wasn't too overpowering, and it...

"No Energy for Snickers Marathon Energy Bar"

You know our world lately has become about having more energy without the fat. When a friend tempted me to try the Snickers Marathon Energy Bar, how could I deny? It has chocolate in it! When I first took a bite, the taste intriqued me. It tasted like bland oatmeal with a thin layer of chocolate at the bottom. So far after 1 hour of finishing off the bar, I have a little more energy but not enough to jump for joy. The bar itself was a little on the firm side. Someone who has problems biting into foods like hard cookies would probably not enj...

"Nexium- Miracle Purple Pill!"

To make a long story short, I was diagnosed with GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) this past week. Went to the hospital because I didn't know what was going on, and the doctor prescribed Nexium. After the first time upon taking it, I noticed a major difference. I had less pain and could eat without feeling like my chest/stomach was gonna blow up (I know, a little grotesque). While the Purple Pill did it's work, I wasn't estatic about the side effects. I had a lot of the side effects and when I called the doctor about them, h...

"Daewoo DVDVCR Player- Woo, good deal!"

A while back, I realized I needed a DVD player. Sure, I had a PlayStation 2 but couldn't really rely on it. After my family got a surround system for their main room, I decided to check out a small one for my own. I searched on Amazon.com and found the one of my dreams! I found the Daewoo DV6T811N DVD/VCR for the perfect price and bought it immediately. Once I got it in my home, it was super easy! My boyfriend suggested that he hook it up but by the time he was finished explaining why, I was already finished. The picture and sound qualit...

"Say Goodbye to Allergies in Bed!"

The ultra-thin, extra soft and super absorbent mattress protectors will not detract from the comfort of your bedding, and they are easy-to-use and machine washable. So say goodbye to a wet mattress due to accidents! I actually tested the “wet mattress theory” with a spray bottle. I sprayed a small area twice. I was surprised when I lifted the mattress protector. It was virtually dry! While the terry cloth upper was wet, you couldn’t tell it came from the same bed! As a sufferer of allergies, I have noticed a di...

"Saxon Rocks!"

This CD is a win in a contest from  House of Hair (hosted by Dee Snider). “Into the Labyrinth”- which was actually recorded in Germany and released this year. I love heavy metal and British band Saxon falls under that category with being progressive metal. From my point of view, progressive metal is melodic melodies with lyrics rich in riddles and fantasiful undertones. Progressive metal bands include Kamelot, Epica, and Queensrÿche. But Saxon doesn’t stop there with songs like “Slow Lane Blues”, whic...

"HP Hey, 'puter!"

At the beginning of the year, our 5-year-old Gateway was starting to take a turn for the worse. But it had lasted us a good 5 years and we had the money to buy a new computer. So we went to Best Buy, and while my sister and I wanted a computer that was on sale last time we were there, it wans't on sale anymore. So we had to keep looking and found the HP Pavilion Elite. I looked it over and thought it was a great deal! Not even 2 weeks later after getting it set up, it turned itself off. Come to find out, the power supply had pretty much ...
