I am one to get fired up when I am wronged, and this time I am beyond fuming mad. Like many Target shoppers last week, I ordered the Britax Marathon Car Seat in the sale color, Granite Grey. Target.com often marks down merchandise and offers free shipping so I was totally on board with the [...]

I’m a sucker for stationary. In fact it might very well be the only girly thing about me. If it has pink swirly lines or fancy emblems, I fall for it. So it didn’t take much for Pose Prints to win me over with their custom designed cards. When I was first introduced to their [...]

I have always been [...]

The rule of thumb is that smaller packages are cheaper to ship at the Post Office and larger ones are cheaper to ship UPS. So when I found myself with a stack of medium sized boxes to ship this year, I wasn’t sure where to go.
I tried the United States Post Office first. The lines [...]

Since our son was born just over 5 years ago we have visited JCPenney’s portrait studio almost yearly. It has served our needs well by providing nice portraits for a very reasonable price.
Now, when I make an appointment for something I understand “sh*t happens” and people don’t always run on time. I expect this at [...]

Today I got one of those phone calls that leave you with a bad feeling in the pit of your stomach. “Mrs. FishyGirl, I’m from the fraud alert department at Bank of America, and we’re calling to advise you that we’ve flagged your account as possibly having fraudulent activity on it, and want to verify [...]

After scouring the internet all weekend looking at party invitations for our son’s upcoming 5th birthday I was overwhelmed. Even more so, I was shocked by the prices some companies were asking for a mere thirty pieces of paper.
I’m sure the quality was good and the designs were very attractive but spending $100 for invitations [...]

A few weeks ago we purchased a Spiderman 3 Web Slinger Water Slide for our son at Meijer. We were out of town at the time and do not have that store anywhere close to us, making a regrettable purchase also not returnable.
We had issues with this product from Toy Quest from the beginning. After [...]

When we recently relocated, we used Rent.com as a resource to hunt down an apartment in our new city and state. As a website, Rent.com offers some nice options letting you search for the features you are interested in, such as bedrooms, min/max price and or course the ever popular location finder.
One cool bonus, [...]

I’ll admit it. I absolutely LOVE books. In fact, I’m a bit nutty about them. I’ve been reading since I was four, and it is not unusual for me to have three or four (or more!) selections going at a time. I can spend HOURS at a time in the library or my local Barnes [...]

DHL, you put my family through hell! Why did your delivery man ask my children our house number? I realize the kids were playing in our yard and the delivery man wanted to know if he was at the correct address. But dude…
You got out of a van and [...]
