Dropped 34 lbs. before I got married AND changed the way I eat forever

Mon, 17 Apr 2006 18:55:00 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I can't say enough about this book. At first, I wondered if I'd REALLY ever get used to something called "ricotta creme." But after seeing the results, I can't knock it! My husband and I tried this before we got married... in the eight weeks it took...

How life changes with an iPod

Sat, 8 Jan 2005 16:56:48 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I used to think the concept of paying $400 for what is, essentially, a jacked-up Walkman was ridiculous. Then, as my bridesmaids and I were driving across Colorado Springs in April to get from the salon to our hotel, I was thinking, I really want to hear...

The best camera for frequent photogs

Thu, 8 Aug 2002 20:06:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - The Olympus Brio D-230 was an impulse buy... I'd wanted a digital camera, so I picked this baby up online. The few reviews I'd read were good, and it had the main qualities I wanted - the ability to crop and the option to switch to black & white and...

Cleansing was never this dirty

Fri, 30 Mar 2001 03:06:54 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - So, I'm a big fan of the BASIS face wipes. Since no store near me carries them, I stock up with in other parts of the country. Finally exhausting my supply, I decided to try Biore. BIG MISTAKE.

Before meetings, I wipe my face with one of these...

Motorola Talkabout T900 2-Way Pager (Black): How to get the most out of your T900

Fri, 3 Nov 2000 00:42:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I recently purchased the Motorola T900 instead of a Blackberry because I'd heard really good things about the T900 from coworkers. I'm thrilled with it, but while they didn't lie about how wonderful it was, they didn't truly realize how many great...

A free ticket in only one month!

Fri, 20 Oct 2000 21:09:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I couldn't believe it when I was told I had already earned an award ticket. I had only booked three flights, but since I booked them online I received double credit! Southwest requires 16 credits for a free ticket. A credit is considered a one-way trip,...

The ultimate college football experience

Fri, 20 Oct 2000 20:01:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I spent four years at Mizzou cheering on the Tigers with the best of them. During those four years, I saw great improvements made to the stadium -- both on the exterior and the interior.

First of all, I must tell you that there's no such thing...

Perfect technique for the perfect mascara

Sat, 9 Sep 2000 22:18:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I've always been good with mascara. I was taught a simple technique by a makeup-artist friend of my mom's when I was younger, so I've always had good luck with even the cheapest of products. That said, however, the Clinique Supermascara has made me a...

Tangerine Goodness Worth Every Penny

Sat, 9 Sep 2000 20:18:31 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - Talk about bliss. I'm one of those people that could LIVE in the bathtub, and because of it, we've added shelf beyond shelf to my bathroom to house all the product. This, however, never made it to the shelf -- I keep this next to the tub. In fact, I'm...

A good product... but he still left

Sat, 9 Sep 2000 19:48:13 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I tried the cream in the store, and it felt fantastic on my hands. So I forked over the $18 (a little pricy for a jar of cream) and took it home in preparation for my date that night.

Lesson # 1: If you like being noticed for your perfume, DO...

Non-beer-drinker says: Bring it on!

Tue, 30 May 2000 03:08:26 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I do NOT drink beer. I just don't. I made it through college by nursing a Bud Light all night long. Then I found Two Dogs, and while people made fun, I still got to have a beer with the crew.

Enter the SF Bay Area. I moved two weeks ago, met a...

Quintessential College Movie

Sun, 28 May 2000 06:29:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - As a college road trip fanatic, I felt it necessary to see this movie. Despite the fact that I've since graduated, and despite the fact that I now spend my days representing Fortune 500 companies in a suit, I went. And I laughed SO HARD because a good...

Yahoo! Mail: How to get the most out of Yahoo! Mail

Fri, 26 May 2000 22:05:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - Essentially, when you use Yahoo! Mail you've got everything you need at your fingertips -- lots of free space, an easy-to-remember email address, a solid brand name behind your own. But the best way to utilize Yahoo! Mail is to incorporate it into the My...

Samsung SCH 3500 CDMA / AMPS Cellular Phone: A sexy, functional techno toy

Fri, 26 May 2000 02:03:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - Admittedly, I didn't want to spend $200 on a cell phone. But as a PR rep, I've become an image junkie. And this cell phone PROVES IT! I get at least 2 compliments on my phone each day, as stupid as that sounds, and that doesn't even BEGIN to describe the...

Wed, 24 May 2000 04:57:48 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - Okay. Bank of America SUCKS. But instead of giving you all the sad stories I've accumulated, I'll run it into a nice list for you, giving you all you need to make an informed banking decision.

PROS:

1. BofA ATMs are EVERYWHERE.

Shutterfly Online Store: Friends can get copies, too!

Sun, 21 May 2000 03:45:48 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - Finally. A company that thinks ahead. A company that KNOWS my best friend Liz and I can never quite get the pictures we want to send each other sent off in a timely manner.

The way it works is this: You send them your film. They develop it --...

How to ensure success with the Princeton Review

Sun, 7 May 2000 22:01:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - The Princeton Review helped me raise my score -- by an unusual 300 points. But I also made an EFFORT to learn the techniques, do the homework and go to ALL the classes and lab sessions and ALL the practice tests.

You see, the Princeton Review...

Entertaining, but not worth the hype

Sun, 30 Apr 2000 04:06:44 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I loved the previews for this movie, so I was one of the first in line to see it. And afterwards, I realized a few things:

1. The acting in the beginning is fairly flat. Matthew McConaughey, while gorgeous and talented, is not at his best...

Gotta love a Jetta? Maybe NOT.

Thu, 6 Apr 2000 04:42:58 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I LOVE my car. At least, I did. I bought the car during Summer 1997, and I didn't really have any problems with it until the last month. In the last month:

1. My airbag light has come on and will NOT come off.

2. My cigarette lighter got...

Thu, 6 Apr 2000 04:26:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I received a Discover Classic card in the mail recently (an offer I applied for on Priceline.com) and was THRILLED at the introductory APR. 2.9 percent!! UNTIL SEPTEMBER! I transferred the balance from my Citibank card (which was costing me a fortune...

Videos on MTV?!?

Thu, 6 Apr 2000 04:17:41 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I've been an avid viewer of MTV since Mazzy Star headlined the MTV premiere empire with "Video Killed the Radio Star." Yet over the past several years I've found that videos are going the way of the dinosaur.

At least on MTV.

MyPoints.com: MyPoints DELIVERS!

Thu, 6 Apr 2000 04:07:02 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I joined MyPoints last year. I also joined BonusMail, so when the two merged I ended up with two accounts, one of which I can't access for the life of me. Nonetheless, I LOVE THIS PROGRAM!

I get approximately 10 emails a day, and the programs...

Hair Care Products: Physique is PHantastic!!

Mon, 3 Apr 2000 04:51:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I generally don't believe the hype. I mean, if this is SUCH a revolutionary product, why aren't other companies jumping on the "science and haircare" bandwagon?

I can tell you, with complete honesty, that they just don't KNOW. I have...

Sat, 1 Apr 2000 05:03:36 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - So, I read through all of these comments and I figured I should just try it for myself. So I did. I spent ten minutes on the site, and in that time I got a free box of hair color, a 10-minute prepaid phone card, a set of business cards (for 1.10 in...

Nightmare on the ground

Fri, 31 Mar 2000 00:13:54 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author MUGirl - I've flown TWA for YEARS with no problems. An occasional delayed flight here and there, no big deal.

It became a big deal recently, however, when a flight was delayed "for maintenance" and ended up canceled. This, in itself, would...
