Didn't think they were cheap. I've never used one. 😀 😛

I got a medium one, the big ones can cost a 1000 or more. It was 400 it was only 200 from Amazon since its an older model. 🙂

That sounds like a fine bargain. 😀 😛

Yea its an older model but reviews said older model is actually better then the new one. LOL

😀 😛

 

[milagros317]

That's not surprising. They come out with a new model just to boost sales, not because they necessarily improved the product. 😀 😛

Yes often they just add stuff to add stuff so they can charge you more. Many times the additions cause more problems and so the newer model is just not as good.

It is the same with textbooks. Often the 5th edition is worse than the 4th edition, just thicker with more graphics and more expensive, having eliminated a chapter. 😱

Oh my that is awful. You would think they would realize the content comes first.

Nope not really. Battle was postponed till this friday or so. 😀

The big textbook publishing companies care about sales, not content or quality. 🙁

Real life comes first. Though often we wish it didnt. 😛

Zod, I gather that Clorox is not your favorite client. 😱

Not when they seem to ship just about everything by the rails


Screw them I am boycotting their crap I will use my own spit to clean the floor of my truck before using Clorox

😀 😛

 

[milagros317]

I will refrain from using Clorox also. There are plenty of other brands of bleach. 😀 😛

That's the nice thing about the free market. You can boycott a product and buy from their competitors. 😀 😛

You are most welcome.

Indeed that is quite true. 🙂

 

[milagros317]

You can even boycott a whole country, like not buying French wine when they are acting in their customary anti-American fashion. 😀 😛
