I was looking for a new tire for my 2006 Chevy Cobalt, and didn't want to spend alot but wanted some quality out of a tire. I purchased a set of 4 Fusion VRi 205/55/16 tires from Tirerack.com for my car. The first thing I liked about the tire was the price. The price was $68 a tire, and its hard to find a tire at that price these days. The Fusion is listed as a High Performance All Sea...

I went looking for a desk for my basement, where my computer is set up. I went to Staples and found a desk that I liked. The Z-Line Gemini L-Desk is exactly what I was looking for. I wanted a desk that would fit in the corner, as well as a desk with alot of open space. Unlike alot of conventional computer desks this one was the one for me. And at the price of $89.99, it was a steal. What I like...

My son is almost two years old but he loves Thomas to death. He knows the names of most of the popular trains, moreso than I do! We were excited when we found out that "Day Out With Thomas" was coming to the Conway Scenic Railroad in North Conway, New Hampshire. We purchased out tickets online, and they had multiple dates. We went this past Saturday. We got to the site nice and early ...

I had a smoke detector go bad on me, it was your basic smoke only detector, cheap but did its job. When I went to Ace Hardware, I was surprised how far detectors had come. I picked up the First Alert Smoke & Fire detector for 21.99 and headed to the register.The reason I bought this detector is that it has some features, I thought were new and safety can never be compromised.  The...

I have had Vonage for many years. But I was ready for a change and wanted to take advantage of eliminating one bill. So I decided I would take the plunge and get the special from my local cable company. I decided to get Comcast Digital Voice.The installer showed up to my house on time, and pulled out the Comcast Didigtal Voice modem. My first impression was that this RCA modem is HUGE. Now...

After getting my Wii, I learned that there were a bunch of shooter games out there. Toy Story Mania, hunting games etc were all something I had a interest in. So I decided I'd go looking for a gun adapter.To my surprise my local Family Dollar started to carry these. I looked at it and at the price of $5 I couldn't go wrong regardless of how it went.The first thing you will notice is tha...

We just got a new cat a few months ago. She loves to play sometimes way beyond what we want her to. I went out looking for some toys for her for her stocking and for Xmas presents. What I came home with wasn't what I expected to return with.I found this house at my local Tractor Supply Center. It is called the Cat Play Center and is built by Sport Pet Designs. The cost of this house was $19...

I have had a ear infection for over a year now. My ear just doesn't want to pop. Recently my ear became so bad that it felt like I had water in it and there was alot of pressure in my ear. I went to my doctor and he prescribed me anti-biotics. After finishing that round, I still had a ear infection which felt even worse. Another trip to the docs and another co-pay and I came out with anothe...

I went looking for a helmet for my ATV. I own a Honda TRX-300EX. My old helmet had seen better days, and I needed something new. So I started to reseach online, and found a model I liked at the Cabella's online store.The first thing I noticed was the cost of $69.99. It doesn't break the bank which is usually the number one thing I look for, without having to sacrifice safety. This is a ...

I had to borrow a friends car recently and he has a radar dectector inside. I haven't used a radar detector in ages but this one really impressed me. The brand was Cobra and the model number was XRS-R7.I loved the style it was small as most radar detectors are these days. It was mounted on the dash but also allows you to mount it behind the rear view mirror. It is a 6 band radar detector. T...

If your like myself and you have some spare time to mess around with computer games, then 7 Wonders of the Ancient World is just for you! I loved Tetris when it first came out, and this game is on the same basis but different in its own unique way. You must match up 3 or more of the same kind of blocks to get them to clear. While doing this a brick comes down and you need to get this brick to t...

When looking for a treadmill, I went looking at the local Walmart. I found a treadmill that wouldn't break the bank but would have a wife range of features. The Image 15.0 R looked like the treadmill for me. What I first noticed and liked was the fact that it cost under $500 before taxes. The next thing was that the treadmill could fold upright and not take up alot of space in my basement w...

My wifes car tends to get some "mysterious" scratches once in awhile. On a black car likes hers it sticks out like a soar thumb. You know those trips to Target or Walmart, end up giving you  more than you want! Grocery carts, doors from other cars, or just general scratching that happens when you rub against your car.I didn't want to spend 50-100 to pay someone to buff out th...

The latest craze seems to be Satellite radios. I went looking for a Sirius radio for my wife, that wasn't to bulky and was easy to run. I settled on the Sirius One radio and car kit. The Sirius One, is small, about the size of a radar detector. This is good that it doesn't get in the way, but it also suffers from a small digital screen. You can change the font size, but then its huge, a...

This is my review of the Safety 1st Bab'y Digital Reminder. What this item does is track baby's feedings and medicine dispensing. The reminder is tiny first off, so it doesn't get in the way and can be put virtually anywhere. It has three versatile attachments, clip-on so you can carry it, self standing so you can put it on a desk, and magnetic if you want to attach it to something....

Crest is trying to snag a part of the market that seems to have boomed recently. The Crest whitestrips claim to have visible whitening in 14 days. They also claim that they are clinically proven to remove up to 14 years of stain build up in just 14 days. Thats one HUGE claim that I find falls quite short. I mean 14 years of stains, thats alot of stained teeth in there. All you do is peel the st...

The Burlington Free Press is the major paper for most of the Burlington, VT area, as well as other surrounding areas.As far as content goes, well it all depends on where you are from and what you want to read. The sports section isn't so bad, but is a little short on content and length, although they do tend to have some good coverage of local schools and sports.There is a living section, a...

My wife hit a pot-hole and bent my 16" wheel on my 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt LT sedan. I went to my local dealership and they wanted $391 for the wheel! Thats right $391 for a Alluminum wheel....absolutely insane!So I looked online and found that you could get them off Ebay for about $75-$150 but who knows what you get when you order from ebay! The online GM parts store had them for $290....

It cost us $22.95, but the book is packed with a ton of information.The back page has important reminders and addresses space, so you can enter this stuff prior to your trip. Next to that page they have important phone numbers for...

We initially approached out bank, Vermont Federal Credit Union, and they were more than ready to help out. They handed a application to us, and we filled it out. Some things you might want to collect are your outstanding debts and...
