I received this product through the product review club, at no cost. There was no other compensation for my unbiased opinion.
My hair is slightly longer than shoulder length, fine, and very curly. My concerns have been dullness, dryness and it being uncontrollably frizzy. This product's instructions stated to brush or comb the dry shampoo through your hair application. This step is needed to allow the product to do its job of removing oilyness and so you don't have an obvious coating f the product at the roots. Unfortunately, with curly hair, that just turns your 'do into a massive round ball of frizz and chaos. Definitely not a product for me to use regularly. A time I could see it coming in handy is when my hair is straightened with a hot iron. Using as directed would be simpler, any fly-aways could be touched up, and it would allow me to keep a straight style for several more days than typical. The MSRP is $9.99 but it can be found in stores such as Walmart for a $3.47 price point. That is a great price even if you just leave it in your drawer at work for freshening up.

Coppertone Sunscreen Lotion Sensitive Skin Faces SPF 50
Light feeling and easy to apply. Fairly non-greasy feel. Good coverage with small amount of product. Price point is high for quantity, but it may be a case of having to pay for a quality brand name.

My main concern was clogged pores, and frequently noticing tiny blackheads, especially around the nose and chin areas. After the first week of use, positive results were visible with the naked eye. Skin felt smooth even if I skipped moisturizer. I was using a liquid facial cleanser with the product, while in the shower each morning.
The warning pulse at the 30 second intervals still startles me. I'd prefer if it just shut off after 30 seconds and let me turn it on again.
The battery life is amazingly great. Three weeks after a full charge, and daily use, it is still running strong. Love that it doesn't require to be plugged in constantly, especially in my tiny bathroom.
Price point is very high for my budget, and the replacement heads twice year make it, realistically, something that would be out of my reach if not receiving the product for review. So very thankful to be chosen, because it works very well.

Tried the Roasted Yellow Pepper (with garlic and lime) flavour on a spinach, avocado, tomato, havarti cheese salad. It was delicious! Very flavourful so it was easy to stick to the one tablespoon suggested serving size when tossing. No salty or bitter after-taste.
Purchased on sale with other varieties for $1.99 so it doesn't appear to be marketed as a premium in their line-up. That makes me happy - I can purchase it regularly!

This item is on the new BK value menu. It sells for $1.39 plus tax.
Non-customized burger consists of a small patty, barbecue sauce, and three onion rings. It is not very filling (but touted as a snack) and is tasteless due to lack of condiments. The barbecue sauce just adds sweetness, not flavour. The two times I ordered it, the onion rings were missing.
For 20 cents more, you might as well get Whooper Junior.

Context: has been on a promotional price of 25 cents for medium-size for the past month. Unsure of regular price.
Great taste and temperature for product. Regularly replenished supply, but it is in a thermal type of container. Definitely worth a try, and a switch if the price-point doesn't change.
I drink Tim Hortons regularly; McDonalds sometimes; Starbucks medium roast sporadically. YMMV.

Background: house of 2 adults, who wash pots, pans and plastic by hand, and run the dishwasher approximately every third day. We scrape but don't rinse. If I'm rinsing, I might as well wash it!
Spaghetti sauce, cheese and avocado (some 3 days old!) all were scoured clean off the plates during the wash cycle. Glasses had no spots on them (but we did have a rinse agent in the dishwasher compartment still). Cutlery, overall, got very clean. Some residue between tines on one or two forks, but we have a lot of cutlery crammed together.
The price point is very reasonable, if purchased on sale and with a coupon. I have several boxes of 40 tablets that were purchased for under $5 before tax. The 100% mail-in rebate Finish shared on their Facebook and Twitter accounts was honoured and fulfilled within 6 weeks. It appears that they post that offer on a regular basis.
Definite BUY in my opinion.
