How to Save $$$ When in New York City

Mon, 5 Nov 2001 21:45:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - If you are planning a trip to New York City do NOT use your car in the city. Besides driving at snails pace (less than 5 miles per hour on most streets,) the cost to park a car would be one of your biggest expenses. Depending on where in the city you...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - Review Topic: Sights & Attractions

Wed, 1 Aug 2001 13:34:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - Sometimes I wonder about myself. As you can see on my Epinions profile page, I am an animal rights activist and I donate all the money I make on Epinions to animal rights. But when it comes to my own pets I must be real dumb.

Fri, 1 Jun 2001 10:57:16 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - I have been very lucky in the past with my pets, but last year was a different story. Nikki, my furry family member started acting very strange. She wouldn’t play with me as she usually did; she became very lackadaisical, and even stopped eating. I...

Tue, 22 May 2001 14:27:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - Well I knew it would happen. When my daughter arrived home after graduating from college she started to eyeball all my electronic equipment. One thing I was pretty sure of was that she would want my DVD player. Why not? She already “stole” my VCR, a...

Wed, 21 Mar 2001 14:57:31 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - When my cordless phone recently went belly up I decided to look around for a replacement phone that had some additional features associated with it. I wanted one with a built in answering machine, Caller ID, and a lighted keypad. I'm not picky...am I?...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - I have been looking at DVD Players for a few months so when my wife bought one for me for the holidays I was quite happy. She really must have been listening to me because I really did not want one with all the fancy extras. A simple player would do...

MCI Worldcom is NOT a Cellular Phone Company

Sat, 5 Aug 2000 13:57:53 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - MCI Worldcom is not a wireless company. Even though they try to pass themselves off as one, they are in reality a reseller. They purchase bulk time from either Verizon (formally Bell Atlantic) or AT&T and then sell it to the end user at a premium...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - We purchased this Sable in June 1994 as what the dealer called a "demo."

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - When my daughter decided to do her internship in Los Angeles during her junior year in college, we were told that in order to get around she would need a car. We looked into many options including letting her drive to LA (we live in New York City.)...

Sat, 1 Jul 2000 10:55:14 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - ...and then off to get it repaired! At first I thought the battery went bad so I purchased another battery. After charging the battery overnight, (even though we are told it takes only four hours) the phone worked for less than 30 minutes. I then called...

Mon, 26 Jun 2000 11:13:07 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - The promotions to set up an account with X.com was great, and the thought of having one debit card to use on internet purchases was even greater. That was until I exceeded my balance by a whopping 7 cents!

I went onto the X.com site and saw...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - After being insured with Allstate for almost 17 years, my daughter finally reached the age where she could get her drivers license. She was so happy and so was Allstate. Why? Can you believe a 33% increase on my policy?

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - The time had finally come. I promised my daughter that when she became a senior in college she would get her own car. So as her junior year came to end she spend many hours "researching" different cars. And to say the least I was so...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Nikjdog - I have been a member of this program for just over 2 years now and I can't believe all the ways I can earn miles. Besides the standard miles earned for flying with US Airways or their airline partners (which I have never used), I have gotten mile credits...
