I bought this product when I was trying to get the permanent marker off the wall. I wasn't expecting much, but it worked amazing. The marks were completely gone without too much effort. Be careful though. I suggest when using the eraser on walls, use it on a small test spot first, as some paints might not hold up as well as others. Overall, I recommend this product for the tough stains on walls, counter tops, bathtubs, tiles, etc. -

I have mixed feelings about this product. The game itself is very well made and includes a great variety of activities to keep you motivated and gives you a choice between how high level of a work out you're after. It also includes a "How do you feel today" type of quiz. My problem with this package is the accessories. The tension strap is very loose and gives next to no resistance, which is not very useful. The leg strap to hold the nunchuck slides out of place very easily. Both myself and my roommate had problems with it. We tried it over clothes, on bare skin, tighter, looser. It just did not want to stay in place. If there was an option to not use the nunchuck, that would be preferable.
Overall, this is a satisfactory product. However, due to the flaws in the accessories, I will not be purchasing this myself.

This is an addictive game. I loved the Mario Kart games for N64 and the Gameboy DS, so I was eager to play this one. I like that I can steer by turning the wiimote. I have no use for the wheel, personally. It's just to make it feel more like driving. I just hold my wiimote sideways kind of like handlebars. There is also an option to connect a nunchuck and use controls similar to the N64. This game is a little bit pricey, but you can pick up a used copy for a decent price. This is a game that will not be sitting idle on your shelf for very long. I highly recommend this for anyone who enjoyed the other games in the Mario Kart series. -

I purchased my Netbook in July of 2009. I was surprised by how small the box was even. Other laptops that I had purchased had far too much packaging, I think. It took a little bit of time to get used to the smaller sized keyboard. It's about 95% the size of a standard keyboard. It is amazingly light and portable. I have the smaller power battery and even that lasts a number of hours. I used to dread having to lug my larger laptop to school, but this is so easy. I have not had any problems with crashing or anything. It runs on an updated Windows XP.
The only problem I've encountered with it is sometimes the built in webcam in mine gets choppy. I plan on taking it to the store to get it looked at, as it's still under warranty.
Overall, this is a great product if you're looking for portability and simplicity.

I found that this book was not well written. I've read all of the Twilight series. This was my least favourite of them all. It seemed of lower quality that the others. It felt repetitive and drawn out in parts. I also found that the ending was extraordinarily anti-climatic. If you've already read the other books, might as well read this one too, but don't expect too much. -

I really enjoyed this product. The balance board is well built and can hold around 300 pounds. The exercises are fun and I really enjoyed the mini games. It tracks your progress overtime, which is pretty cool. It has a built in scale, which isn't exactly accurate, but it's relatively close. There are a handful of other Wii games that incorporate the Balance board (some fitness and some other), so if you're bored with the disk, you can switch it up and still be up and active. -
COVERGIRL Outlast Lipstain

I bought this because I was intrigued. I had never seen such a thing before. It looks like any felt tip marker, which was entertaining. I find that it tickles putting it on, but not too badly. The colour was really bright. I chose a plum/red colour. It does wear off quickly sometimes. I suggest wearing a lipstick of a similar colour over top of it. That way, as the lip stick wears, the stain makes it less noticeable. I believe that this is the intention of the product. However, I do believe that you're better off with a long wear lip stick. -
Rimmel London Stir It Up Cream Eyeshadow

I didn't realize this was a cream make up when I purchased it, but that was my own fault. The colours don't blend very well. It's messy and difficult to apply well. I found that it looked caked on and I've never used it since trying it after purchasing it. Not worth the purchase, unfortunatly. -

I have a few different colours of this eye shadow. I originally purchased them, because I was looking for some interesting colours at a low cost. The quality was better than expected for the cost and I was impressed. It had a high colour pay off as well, though I suppose that will vary depending on the colour you choose. I highly recommend this product. -

I bought this from the 'As Seen On TV' Store in my local mall. The shopkeeper had said that she used it and it worked well for her. I had seen the ads and it looked promising. However, this product did not work for me. It had patchy results on my legs and I have rather fine leg hair. This was a waste of my money, unfortunately. -
