My orders have been left just inside the gate, not brought to the door. I shop elsewhere now. For older people that is very bad.

Fairly good shopping

I like to see what my local store may have and read reviews. I have only had one minor disappointment. Towels bled, badly in COLD water!

  • Forever Missed

6/6/19

There are four memorials from my family. My dad, father-in-law*, Mom, and my husband. The asterisk is an account that I paid for, but my husband set up. After my husband died, I was unsure I could ever sign into my father-in-law's page again. I e-mailed the site, giving them as many details as I could, and got control back. The customer service was excellent. The site seems very reasonable, to me. For a one-time payment of seventy-five dollars, you may use many more songs and pictures. For free, the limit is three songs, three pictures. I have a dozen pictures and one song that I uploaded. Wallpapers are very nice and may be changed.
It can really help to set up and add to a memorial page.

Products used:

  • Shari's Berries

I got these on the day promised. They were a birthday gift from my brother. They were fresh and delicious. I had to place one berry on a bowl and cut it in half. Still a mouthful! Keep refrigerated, eat fast. READ pamphlet!

Very inexpensive IF you're using a home network, as I am. I love it! I'm getting a new phone, as the first one finally died.

I do know someone this site worked for. My experience was that nobody really wants to answer any simple questions, like "what IS it you like about my profile" [or photo]. BEWARE some appear to be stock photos, and will attempt to follow you to FB. Very scary. I left. I'd rather be alone.

Shave been double-billed for months after asking to have my account closed. I was told one figure, around $25.00, but was actually billed about $55-$60.00 in total, monthly. I FINALLY got it closed a couple days ago, and received an e-mail saying that they issued a refund. I'm in a small rural town and never get the phone working right. Customer service, in my case was very poor. Go to Tello. They are great!

You need to pay for Data in order to send photo messages. Didn't know that. Otherwise my previous review still stands. I love the phone I bought, a kyocera, Cust Service is almost too good! 24/7! I'm still VERY happy with Tello! I highly recommebd them for wireless on a budget.

I went thru all the red tape, got my free smartphone. It kept getting overly hot and could not turn off. Tossed it. Service could be better. Changed to Tello.com, and love it!

  • Consumer Cellular

8/9/16

I have been with Consumer Cellular about five years, now. I previously had Tracfone. My husband had Great Call. I like the Doro phone. Very simple, but loud enough and the emergency button is great! My hubby bumps his "5-Star" [Great Call] constantly! Mine [Consumer Cellular] must be pressed three times, making it far better, in my opinion. Their customer service is really great! It's one place that you are not charged for a SIM card. My bill is always under thirty dollars a month. I can't find anything better, and I have looked! Square Trade was worth it to me. I fouled up my phone and had to have a new, refurbished, one sent out. Definitely glad I pay for square Trade.
My husband just received his new phone and he is beyond thrilled! It has been easy for him to get used to, and he transferred his old Tracfone number. We highly recommend the Doro phone over the less expensive one. It is worh the extra $20.00.

I've ordered and like the clothes. Far nicer than Walmart. Very good customer service,

Know the retail of the item you buy. Not their idea, but what you'd pay! Got a deal of the day tablet and saved one dollar! Have not been shopping there as much. Used to have great bargains, some still are. Just know what you'd pay elsewhere.

  • Ancestry

8/8/16

I've had a tree at Ancestry on and off for eight years. I have even keyed (transcribed) some of the records. I understand the spelling errors, as they use members to read and type the information. I am not connected with the LDS church or the company. Just someone who enjoys researching my family.
My best advice is to be wary of other member's trees unless you are lucky enough to know the owner is related to you. I have seen many people just stick in names and dates, adding no records at all. Each census, military, birth or death record, will give your tree the chance to be more accurate!
Bottom line: a bit pricey for me, but I love the searching.

  • MyHeritage

3/22/16

I still receive e-mails from My Heritage. I can not re-set my password, nor can I keep paying anyone monthly fees. It has not been easy to communicate with the site.
In fairness, I must add that I had been at Ancestry for two years, so that may have been part of my problem.
We are all different, so don'y let my opinion stop you, if you like them, great! I am STILL getting e-mails with no way to unsubscribe!

I have ordered several times, and always had a great experience. Site to home shipping isn't always reliable.

  • Amazon Prime

3/22/16

Amazon is my first place to go. I love that I know that the reviews are written by customers. I've written some, myself. I have saved myself money and aggravation by shopping here. Prime offers two-day shipping on items Amazon has in their warehouse. Always have had great service.

  • Amazon

Excellent products and service. Reviews are real customers' opinions. I may not buy there every time, but I go to Amazon weekly. I get better reviews, because of the number of them, than at Walmart. I often buy heavier items with my Prime membership, just to make it easier on my hubby. We can't drive.
