Tue, 21 Nov 2000 21:52:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - I came across this site recently when following a link from an auction on ebay. I had been using Honesty.com counters, and uploading my pictures on ebays new hosting service. Both of these took extra time and effort, and were getting kind of tedious...

Great Money Saver

Wed, 25 Oct 2000 15:48:58 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - This all started because my husband and I work together. Every day at lunch time, we would go out in search of something. There aren't too many decent places to have lunch around here, so we ended up eating junk almost every day, not to mention how...

Winding Hill Golf Club

Tue, 24 Oct 2000 11:05:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - This is a beautiful executive course, great for beginners who can't drive very far yet (like me), and challenging for better players to work on their short games. Great views and landscaping throughout, and goes a long way in preserving the natural...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - In the last two weeks since we bought our KitchenAid convection oven, my family has eaten better than they have in years. We bought our house three years ago, and the kitchen appliances that came with it were about 25 years old, and it showed. Anything...

Tue, 22 Aug 2000 11:58:46 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - First of all, I must start by saying that I am a freelance Spanish Translator, and I have to point out that no machine translation tool is as accurate as a human translation. This has been argued many times, and I have definitely noticed that over the...

You learn something new every day

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - A while back, I wrote a review about our local M&T Bank branch, and how wonderful and personal the service there is. All this is still true. But, today I learned about another down side to this bank (in addition to the high and very prolific fees...

LendingTree: Low on my list

Fri, 21 Jul 2000 15:37:32 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - Recently, we decided to refinance our adjustable rate mortgage. Our first thought was to try some of the online mortgage programs. Two years ago, we got our auto lease online, and had a pretty good experience with that. I tried two web sites right off...

Can't beat their customer service

Thu, 29 Jun 2000 11:54:11 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - We have been with M&T Bank for just over two years. We first put our accounts there simply because we got our mortgage from this bank. Several months later, our mortgage was transferred to another company, which kind of took us by surprise, but we...

How did they know???

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - Ever since we moved into our house just a little over 2 years ago, my husband and I have been creating tremendous lists of projects we would like to work on around the house. Just last weekend, after literally two years of discussing it, we went out and...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - About a year ago, we bought a DVD player. We searched all over for DVD rentals, but couldn't find them anywhere. Just within the last few months, our local Blockbuster, as well as our more local Video Treats, started to carry a very limited supply of...

So easy a teenager can use it!

Mon, 24 Apr 2000 16:17:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - We bought this blender about a month ago. Our two teenagers are suddenly on a protein shake kick - you know, those health food powders you mix with milk and ice cream for a "healthy" drink. Let me preface this by pointing out that these...

Great machine for those with lots of dishes

Mon, 24 Apr 2000 16:01:31 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - We have had our Bosch dishwasher for about two years now. In that time, it has served us well. With two teenage boys, and often many of their friends, in the house, we use the dishwasher A LOT. In fact, sometimes I have to run it up to three or four...

Tue, 4 Apr 2000 10:31:04 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - I tried Priceline.com for groceries for the first time several months ago. The first time I used it, I paid about $30, and the bill at the register came to about $70. Can't beat that, right?

While I am still using Priceline, and still...

Plastic Coffee?

Mon, 20 Mar 2000 14:49:46 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - I got this product as a gift. The first one was great, and we loved it, until it broke after about 2 weeks. After moving the coffee maker from one spot in our kitchen to another, it must have shorted out or something, because when we plugged it in...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author EliN68 - I recently read Isabel Allende's new book, Daughter of Fortune, and some of the reviews written about this book here on epinions. While Daughter of Fortune was a good book, the depth of character development does not compare with Allende's earlier...
