mmommiz says "Great fit at a Great Price!" about Basic Editions Short Sleeve Top

mmommiz — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 20:12:22 GMT

I purchased a Basic Editions short sleeved v neck top from my favorite K Mart. I purchase one in a light colored olive and another in a beige. These V Neck short sleeved tops have ribbon details at the neck, and the V neck ties in a lace up in the front. The lace ribbon detail is also on the bottom. It is a very simple, cool, classic top that goes well with jeans or my favorite skirt. i look dressed up but I am very comforable, as they are made from cotton and are very, very soft. I love when K Mart has sales on Basic Editions clothing. They have Basic clothing that goes anywhere, easy to care for and they continue to look great, wash after wash and as many times as I want to wear them.

mmommiz says "Matte Mousse is light & silky" about Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation

mmommiz — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 19:34:21 GMT

I usually wear makeup a few days a week. My youngest daughter bought Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation and I asked to borrow some. I loved the way the mousse formula glided over my face. I did not have to use very much to get good coverage. What I really liked about this mousse is that it did not settle into the fine lines & pores on my face! My face also looked radiant with a subtle glow. The color was a very good match to my tru skin color. It is very hard for women to match their skin color to foundations. The foundation looks one way in the bottle then is either too light or too dark when applied to the face. This mousse however, is a very close match to my skin color. The price is reasonable because this mousse foundation will go a long way! Be careful to stay out of the heat. Any foundation will literally be wiped off your face with a heavy sweat! The great thing is, you can easily re apply it with the same great results as professional makeup!

mmommiz says "Check terms & conditions" about Geico

mmommiz — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 19:02:40 GMT

I admit I have been entertained by those clever Geico tv ads, the ones with the cavemen getting upset because they feel slighted or the little gecko getting chased around by people and also the money with "eyes". So when I decided to call to find out if I could get a better car insurance rate, I was very dissappointed. Granted, not everyone will be dissappointed, but I tried to get the best rate I could. The downpayment was much more than I had made with my present insurance company. The monthly rate was also more. So I told them I had no intention of switching. I told them I got the impression from their ads that I would save money by switching. The Rep said that I would save money in the long run but did not explain how. I assumed the bill would eventually go down once Geico understood I was a low risk. Still, I have a great driving record and I like to be rewarded for that every once in a while!

mmommiz says "Silver Insanity has great Silver Jewelry" about Silver Insanity - Sterling Star pPost Earrings

mmommiz — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 19:04:00 GMT

I purchased a pair of Star shaped posts from Silver Insantity. They are made of sterling silver and were the size I expected according to the description given. When they arrived they were given to my daughter as a Birthday present. She loved them immediately.

They will not tarnish and the small size looks great. Silver Insanity makes it easy to order from their site and they also sell several items on Amazon.com, which you can purchase with Amazon gift certificates. Their return policy is the same with or without gift certificates, which is convenient when you give a gift that someone does not like.

mmommiz says "Dell Inspiron 1521 Laptop could be better" about Dell Inspiron 1521 Laptop

I purchased the Dell Inspiron 1521 for my daughter for college. When it arrived, it would not read cds. We called tech assistance immediately and ended up having to send it back. When she got the new one, she upgraded the memory, following the instructions, because after all, she did own a laptop with Windows Vista. 5 months in the memory failed due to Vista compatability problems. Then she started getting blue screens, pixelated desktop and video, and even microsoft word started acting erractically. Again we called tech assistance and they sent a new harddrive 5 days later. They are obviously trying to save money if you are familiar with pcs, but if a person is green or "pc challenged" good luck trying to send it back. They would insist you talk with a tech to do an installation. Replacing the hard drive turned out to be 1,2,3, and it was ready to go again. So far so good until she has to add a program from one of her classes. Then it will be more calls to tech assistance, which take alot...

mmommiz says "Works when I need it to" about Samsung - S600

mmommiz — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 03:04:11 GMT

I purchased this Samsung s600 from Big Kmart 6 months ago. I wanted a camara that had a zoom, which it does, good memory capacity, which it does. I also purchased 2gs more to take more pictures at one time. It also has a short video feature, with sound, which is fun, but not equal to a good digital camcorder. I am finding it takes up alot of the memory to store several short clips on the memory, so I make sure to download them right away so I can free up the memory. There are many other features, recall, slide show and customization of the subject before you take the photo. All in all not too bad for $139....

mmommiz says "Dell Inspiron 1520 could be better" about Dell Inspiron 1520 Laptop

mmommiz — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 02:56:48 GMT

I purchased a Dell Inspiron 1520 Laptop ( in Ruby red) in October of 2007 and no sooner did I take it out of the box, then it did not work. It was supposed to have a dvd player, but this did not work. Of course I called Dell and they had me stay on the phone for two hours trying to fix the problem. I dare say I am learning to be a techie, because they went over the same steps over and over and over. Finally, the tech suggested I get an RMA and return it because the problem was not able to be solved. After waiting 3 weeks, I recieved the laptop back and used it From February to June. Then more problems began to surface. The screen began pixelating when I would start it up. Then it refused to shut down and claimed it did not finish installing updates, then when I would type, it would jump to the beginning of what ever I was typing, in hotmail, in gmail and in text documents., and the audio and microphone options did not work. This was very unnerving!!! I called Dell again and I spent another...
