My family and I stayed at the Double Tree Hotel in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania for one night a few years ago while visiting the area. It is located right in downtown Pittsburgh near several attractions. We got a King suite and the room was very big. There were two televisions, which was nice with the kids. The bathroom was very big also and everything was very nice and clean. The room had a very co...

I had run out of enveopes and borrowed some from my brother who always buys more than enough. His current favorites at that time were Redi Seal double flap envelopes available from OfficeMax. These enveoples are regular business size (#10), white, the self-stick kind that you don't need to lick (yuck) or wet with a sponge. I was used to peel-and-seal ones, but these are a little dfferent: th...

I got these DW 7000 double bass pedals for Christmas, and they are AMAZING! They are more fluid than most double bass pedals, and by that I mean that it is easy to push the pedals down quickly and in a rythm to get that new metal sounds all of the bands are playing these days.  It is easy to make the "machine gun" sound with them because they are constructed very well.  I ha...

I bought Liplicious Double Kiss for my mom as part of her Mother's Day gift. Little did she know that I would be borrowing it on numerous occasions. I know, I know. Bad Rachel! The product is two-sided, with two purposes. One side is extra-scratchy and exfoliates dead skin on your lips via a solid stick of brown sugar. The other side soothes your freshly scrubbed lips with reddish balm...

I had not considered myself a big dominoes fan... until I was introduced to the big, colorful set of dominoes that go all the way up to double fifteens. The set is called Collectors Dominoes and is available at Walmart and online. I believe the company also makes smaller sets, double six, nine, and double twelve. The dominoes are white, with colored dots that help to identify the pieces: rather...

Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara comes in a nice silvery-gray tube with a price tag of $14 - a bit high for me but quite usual for this brand. As you can see from the name of it, the mascara promises to make your eyelashes twice longer. I've found it to be an overstatement: it does thicken and lengthen eyelashes some, but not that much. One coat makes the lashes more defined, two ad...

We bought this set in March of this year (2008). We had just moved and didn’t have a bed. We wanted a King size but were running short on money for buying one. We thought we might have to buy a refurbished (ick) or USED (double ick!) mattress set. Well, just our luck! We were at our local swap meet that Sunday and ran into a guy/vender selling BRAND NEW manufacturer direct mattress se...

 Well, let me first start out with that I do love this dvd for a few reasons. One reason, is that it has both the first and second movies in the Resident Evil trilogy on disc one, which I both love. It also has some fairly attractive graphic design for the case, which in those two aspects are great for any Resident Evil fan/ collector. It does include the special features on disc two, howe...

For less than the average price of one movie, you get two movies on the same DVD!  Unfortunately, that means that there really aren't many special features (I think a music video on both).  But for the price?I loved both these movies, back when they were still fairly fresh.  So, I was happy to find them both on DVd, in good quality,  for so cheap.For any who don't kn...

Another Double Feature from Target, with two great movies.  Both are mainly drama, with romantic elements.  And, of the two, Micheal is my favorite, though City of Angels contains more special features. City of Angels is rated PG-13, and revolves around the life of a doctor (played by Meg Ryan) who falls in love with an angel (played by Nicholas Cage).  Michael is rated PG.&...

The L'Oreal Double Extend mascara is meant to "wrap your lashes" in tubes that won't  flake, clump etc., and aren't suppose to come off until you take them off  - my first go at this product had me thinking "oh crap, what have I done", as only 2 hours into my day I was chasing little black specks off my cheeks and underneath my eyes.  When I actual...

This coin comes with the certificate of authenticity and a small brochure giving you the history of this gold piece. It is radiant in shine with the beautiful Lady Liberty . These have been individualy struck by the National Collector's Mint. Every coin is in collector's proof quality. ...

I love to read, and enjoy all sorts of genres.  Once in awhile, I enjoy the challenge of older literature, particularily a good Shakespeare play.  My most recent Shakespeare read was A Twelfth Night.  The edition I read was part of a larger selection of Shakespeare plays called Shakespeare On The Double.  These books are designed to make Shakespeare more understandable, by a...

This is the newest dart blaster we have added to our vast collection. This one is similar to a double barrel shot gun in looks and operation. It fires both darts with a single full pull of the trigger or will also fire just one with a lesser pull of the trigger. The blaster breaks apart in the middle for easy loading and comes with four darts and the plastic loading sleeves. It is a little diff...

I have two little boys, one that is 2 and one that is 8 months. When we decide to go out as a family it is much easier to take one stroller rather than two. We found this Kolcraft double stroller at K-Mart for a very decent price. I was excited because we would only need one pair of hands now!I really like that the stroller has an umbrella, some double strollers do not. The kids enjoy being abl...

Since getting into photography recently, I have been spending a lot of time looking at my photos on my computer, but I haven't gotten prints much.  I kept hesitating, because I tried a few photo print places, and they all seemed to change the colors on my prints when I wanted them to be just as I had taken them.I decided to try to print out a couple of black & white and sepia tone ...

It is one great thing to have an extra mattress around the house for extra guests or camping trips. Aftr purchasing the Coleman Queen Double High Air Bed with Built-in Pump, I hoped I would never have to actually camp with it. The Coleman Queen Double High Air Bed with Built-in Pump weighs a little less than 20 pounds. This extremely heavy air bed would be perfect for those campers who plan on ...

We bought this Lane Double Reclining sofa and within less than 6 months we had problems with the springs.  The springs are attached on both ends with looped heavy duty wire (see picture), but the way it is made, the springs can easily be dislodged.  We were given a refund on the cost of the sofa, but it took 4 months to get the problem resolved.  We bought this through Direc...

Viewtiful is a side-scrolling action franchise by Capcom. This is the first version for Nintendo DS. The same basic premise is present with the DS version but in a smaller form. I found the game to be very fun in the same ways the older games are, but I also felt like the game was too short, even for a handheld. One could easily beat this game in a few hours. Another aspect that I didn't like a...

This package of paper has just about everything you can need for some craft project.  I originally bought this for some autograph book covers and backing for my 2 and 3 year old neices.  Now I want to use it for everything else.  This cardstock has a simple design on one side and is plain on the other side.  The color is the same on both sides.  There is a great assortm...
