I purchased these for cleaning my car windows and I found out that these things are horrible. I purchased them from Fred’s Dollar Store and I paid 3 dollars for them. I don’t believe they are worth wasting the money on. They are sold in a …

I wanted a crock-pot but I didn’t need anything really big because it is only me in the house. I only use the crock-pot once in a while anyway. I found a 3-quart crock-pot at Kmart that would work. It is the Rival 3 quart round crock-pot and it …

While getting my grill ready for a nice barbecuing session, a friend of mine noticed that I didn’t have a bottle of charcoal lighter fluid nearby, and asked where it was at. I replied that I don’t use regular briquettes, such as Kingsford charcoal, so I don’t need …

I’m severely unhappy with this microwave. You’d think that a brand name —˜American Home’ ensured quality but trust me though this appliance is a disgrace! My dad bought it last year to try new cooking. It looks quite nice actually, white and very modern in design. It’s also quite …

The Waterpik dental water flosser is not something you would see very often. I got this for a price of $49.99. It is not very cheap, but it isn’t too expensive either. I think the price is perfect for this Waterpik.
The Waterpik is like a flosser. Unlike the …
