This is a wonderful dumpster company. They were prompt, efficient and friendly. I would definitely use their services again. Also, they did not have a "drop off rate" or miscellaneous other fees like some other places I called. Just a straight forward price, and excellent service.

We needed to get rid of a lot of concrete. So we ordered the 15 foot container. We called on Thursday mid-day and requested for it to be delivered Friday around the time I got off work and they did. What was nice is they picked it up first thing Saturday around 9am, that way I didn't have to "guard" the container to make sure others don't throw their junk in there. Because it costs more if it's mixed material and I was just getting rid of concrete only.

It was a flat rate of $225, but I used a coupon off their site which made it a even $200. Even at $225 it was a much better deal I found by calling around. Plus other places couldn't pick up the container on Saturdays.

If I ever need a container again, I'll give these guys a call first.

My husband and I were introduced to the classic Tempurpedic mattress while house sitting for a friend of mine. I was not expecting to like the mattress. I noticed over the week of sleeping on it that I was sleeping sounder through the night. I am a side sleeper and also noticed that I wasn't loosing circulation in my arms like frequently happens with the regular spring style mattress.

During a stay at a local resort, we were offered the chance to upgrade our room to one with a Tempur mattress, which we did. Once again I had the same experience. The normal pressure you feel laying on a more solid spring mattress is so reduced by the Tempur, it is an interesting and for me a very comfortable sensation.

We didn't order our Tempurpedic Classic for about another 6-8 months, just because of financing. We read a lot of reviews before actually ordering and so had a pretty good idea what to expect. We ordered our mattress direct from them so that we could take advantage of 0% financing option then offered, which was a much better deal than any local store.

The Tempurpedic site mentions that when the mattress comes it will "gas off" for a couple days. We decided that we would put our old mattress in the living room and use it till the gassing was over. This was NOT a pleasant experience, and I wouldn't recommend this mattress to anyone that doesn't have the option to sleep somewhere else till the smell is gone. I believe our mattress smelled strongly for at least 10-14 days.

There is no way I could or would have slept in there with that strong chemical smell. After that, I am always careful to wash sheets very regularly and now I do not notice any smell.

I read a lot of reviews about people not liking how they "sank into" the mattress, one person felt like it was a "hot coffin". My husband and I have never had that experience. I tend to wonder if this style mattress is preferable to people that are not overweight? I wonder if that was why they had that experience... My husband and I weigh 150lbs and 135lbs respectively.

We have had our mattress over one year now, and I am still very pleased and glad we invested in it. I am a little nervous as to how it will age over time... only time will tell.

The comments I read about owners trying to make use of the warranty were not reassuring, I just figure when it dies, it dies. As long as we get a good 12-15 years out of it, I will be happy.

Another thing I love about this is that since there are no springs, if myself or my husband roll over in the night, the whole bed doesn't respond. Our motions are deadened by the foam.

Our home, built in 1910, runs on the cold side. We use a heated mattress pad which we only turn on in the winter. We only use it on the lowest setting, and turn it off as soon as we get into bed. Without the initial heating, it feels like an ice block in our chilly upstairs. Mind you, our room only has electric baseboard heat, so it is much colder than your average bedroom. Once in the bed it retains heat well and is very comfortable.

Our house does not have any air conditioning and I was concerned about comments I had read about the mattress being hot. We have not noticed any extra heat in the mattress in the summer.

I will update if any issues present themselves...

This film is definitely more of an art film and nothing at all like what the box description says. We picked our copy up at a video store that was closing. My husband and I watched it together and were entertained but puzzled. But I didn't hate it by any means.

I re-watched the film about a month ago and now knowing not to expect the standard Hollywood type plot, I was able to take away a lot more from the nuances made in gestures and dialog. I quite like the film and I am glad we bought it. The unique style of the film almost gives you the sensation of being a voyeur into these episodes of the main characters lives. We don't know the "whole story" just what we see and hear in this present moment with them. I actually thought Defoe did a great job with his backward, secluded character. He is a delight to watch.

Yes, there is a horn type toot at one scene that is odd. After reading the review which mentioned it as being like an elf under a toadstool, I think of that when I see it and chuckle, but enjoy it none the less. The ending of the film is a bit of a shock, but it is meaningful. I think when you first see the film, you don't realize the importance of the opening scene...

I checked this out from my local library, now I am thinking of adding it to my collection. I personally quite like the use of "modern technology" mixed with the older clothing. The industrial office type scenes brought Winston Smith's office in 1984 to my mind. The styling of the costumes and sets were well done and I felt like it added a lot to the story.

The mystery of the film is interesting, although I wasn't quite satisfied with the ending. I wanted just a bit more for Donovan's character. There is a bit of humor laced into the film as well - the desk on the track scene. My husband and I still laugh about that now and then, and whenever I hear a snappy saxophone playing something similar to the music in the film at that point, I see the scene in my minds eye, what a hoot!

This film is definitely not for everyone, but if you enjoy seeing something different, with an artistic approach as opposed to the cliche Hollywood model, I think you would appreciate this film.

Customer Service has become a thing of the past - no one wants to help - HOWEVER, Ticketsinventory came through with professional service. I am very impressed with their service from start to finish.Great Service! Great Prices! My friends and I used Ticketsinventory to pick up 4 tickets to Red Sox Opening Day !! On the ticket page I selected the number of tickets I wanted and it displayed all the selections that would fit my needs. I ended up getting lower level seats on the third base line close to face value. Never going to buy tickets from anyone else again! Go Ticketsinventory ! thank you for your business . You saved us money!!

Before I discovered Ticketwood.com , I had to harry in purchasing my tickets for any event, because I never imagine missing an important event I’d like to attend. But, this is a year ago, a friend has recommended me this site and I really find it valuable and very helpful. They gave a new option to compare prices provided by each broker before deciding where to complete the purchase. Since then, I can say that my eyes have opened widely on ticket prices, and I’m starting to pay reasonably. Thanks Ticketwood !

It's a shame places like this are so rare. I didn't have time for a full meal so we just tried some drinks. We had:

Chocolate Goji ... Full Glass $7, Half Glass $3.50
Creamy chocolate drink made with chocolate, Goji berries, baby coconut, almonds, agave nectar, and love.

Ginger Aid ... Full Glass $7, Half Glass $3.50
A lemonade blended with ginger, Goji berries, cayenne pepper, sea salt, and love.

Me and my wife shared them. It was very different from anything I've ever tasted but in a good way. Both of them where excellent! After I finished the Ginger Aid I felt the cayenne pepper a little bit.

Next week I'll go back for a full dinner and I'll update this review.

I compared prices at SSB to the Home Depot. For the same thing, SSB was less expensive by around 25%. With the prices and great reviews, it made choosing them a no brainer.

Installation of the blinds is amazing. I was surprised how easy these install.

The quality is good plus they are made in America.
