My husband and I decided to try to get in better physical condition. We found the Billy Blanks line of Tae-Bo dvds. I had taken some kickboxing classes in the past and found it to be a great workout that yielded good results. When I saw these dvds, I felt like it was something my husband and I could do together. (I just couldn't picture him doing a "dance your way fit" dvd). Billy...

 So had to purchase this for work, and did some research and settled on Point Blank. Most law enforcement agencies use this brand, so i gave it a shot.  First problem was finding out my size! It took some time but finally figured it out. I then looked online, and in catalogs i'd gotten (Galls, Quartermaster, etc.) and settled on Galls.  I learned a lot while shopping in ...

It can get quite expensive, especially for a student living on a budget, to keep up with all of the greeting card and thank you note purchases I must make to keep up my good reputation among relatives and friends.Thankfully, one area I am able to save some money on is the purchase of thank you note packs, rather than buying individual thank you cards for all the generous peo...

About a year ago we needed to replace our second car. We knew roughly our price range and what we were looking for. Honestly our credit has some black marks on it. Our credit has been clean since our black marks, but we knew it might still be hard to get a decent car loan. Sure just about anyone can get an auto loan, but you are usually paying an arm and a leg for it. I checked on line and deci...

I discovered this line of note cards in a small shop in Boonville, New York, and have now found where they can be purchased on line. The House Mouse designs are by Ellen Jareckie.These are blank cards, about 4 x 5 - the standard note card size.  The drawings of the mice are so adorable and whimsical that they just have to make you smile.  There are over 75 poses of the little mischief...

I must admit I used to laugh when I heard of anyone doing a Billy Blanks workout. I was much younger and thinner when the Tae Bo series was released.After many years and many pounds, I decided to give Billy's Boot Camp a try. I liked the idea of being in a team enviornment without leaving the comfort of my living room. I am also an Army veteran so the boot camp theme really appealed to ...

Before owning a gym membership, I was always looking for ways to get a good workout that would compliment my running.  A friend lent me her Billy Blanks Tae Bo DVD to try. The instructions were very clear, and before beginning the workout, Billy Blanks tells you how each move should look and feel. Once the music begins, the workout is fairly challenging but Billy Blanks is encouraging and ...

Billy Blank's Boot Camp Elite has three full workouts you can get it on dvd or vhs. It has three mission on the first one is to get started the second mission is maximum power and mission three is rock solid abs. Billy Blank is a really good instructor and his very motivational. The work outs really do work and you can feel the effect just after one workout. It's very up beat and i...

I use blank cds a lot, at work, at home, I used to use them everyday in college, but as we all know, walking into staples or best buy, they can be really expensive, so I was super excited when I found this great deal: I found this great deal at www.buy.com. Can we talk about a BIG bang for your buck? 100 CDs for 15 bucks, you can't beat it. I always carry blank CDs with me to burn mus...

I'm the type of person who prefers working out at home rather than in gyms. I can wear anything I want to and I can stop the DVD whenever I feel tired and I need a break and I don't need to wear anything fancy. Plus if I make the wrong moves, I won't feel embarrassed. I used to work out only with a static machine, so Billy Blanks Taebo Series are the first DVDs I've ever tried t...

If you are looking to get into shape in the comfort of your own home, you have to buy this boot camp program on DVD. Billy Blanks is such a wonderful instructor and motivator. This set comes with the boot camp total body work out, the "Billy Bands" which are weight resistance workout bands that give you an incredible workout, and Ab bootcamp which works your abs like crazy. My husband...

I can remember when Billy Blanks first came on the workout scene years ago with his Tae-Bo workouts.  They were a hit then and they are still a hit now.  Recently I picked up one of his workout DVDs to actually see what all of the hype was and to see if I would enjoy the workout.  I ended up getting Tae-Bo Cardio and it was a pretty good workout, not as intense as I would like, b...

These TDK Systems DVD-RW discs work well for me. Some users have said that these say DVD-RW on them but are really DVD+RW, which won't write and/or read in some DVD burners or DVD players. I guess I lucked out bcause these work fine in my DVD burner, DVD ROM drive, and my standalone DVD player. So, keep ths in mind when buying these. If they don't work, return them because they're p...

These Philips 16 speed DVD+R discs are the best DVD blank media that I've ever used. I have not had a single problem with these discs. I never had a writing error, as is so common with most cheaper, lower quality media.16x speed uses all of my DVD burner's maximum 16x speed potential. A full disc is burned in less that four minutes. It's so much faster than the slower 8x speed media...

For someone like me, the price of DVDrs and the quality is a major thing.  I've used them all.  Sony, Memorex, maxell, imation.  After having many problems with a lot of brands burning coasters, I needed a cheap but quality media that I could trust.  I used Imation regularly, for a cheap walmart brand, but lately walmart around here has stopped carrying them.  So of...

We use Maxell's colored cd's to record music, movies, and videos that we purchase from the internet. The compact discs are recordable and come in a pack of 5 assorted colors. Each disc is 700 mb and records up to 80 minutes of music, movies, or videos. I use the straight lines across the front of the compact disc as a convenient way of labeling with a permanent marke...

My acquisition of getting my hands on one of these started not too long ago; in fact, this was just recently on the day people like to refer to as (and has been established as a name, of course) "Black Friday". I didn't really need a pack of these since I had about 200+ blank DVDs that are waiting to be written on, but because of the price - that being at $9.99 - I figured there w...

I bought myself one of these during a time in which I wanted to compare formats and see what's "what" and whether or not they work as far as compability issues go. First off, the design on these are rather unique yet "good-looking" at the same time - definitely a vast improvement over its predecessor (former Staples DVD's on the same format - that being DVD-R which w...

In 2007, I purchased two new cars to replace my newer model car that never worked correctly to begin with.  The first time I bought a car, which was in 2003, I did what a lot of people do.  I went to the dealer found a car I liked and then applied for financing at the dealer.  After sitting in the dealership for 5 hours that day I vowed I would never buy a car that way again!&nbs...

    There doesn't seem to be much variation between DVD-Rs, but if you're looking for a reliable brand that is still decently priced, Memorex might be what you're looking for.    The DVD-R is the normal size for a single layer DVD, 4.7GB.  The recording speed is fine, I usually keep mine on 4x just to make sure there's minimal skipping and erro...
