Metro PCS

Ok, I know some of you call Metro PCS  (metro Piece of S&#!) but I ABSLOUTELY LOVE THEM!   

I am not one to keep up with minutes!  I like to talk when i want to talk!  Period! I like to text when I want to text!  Period.  I like to websurf when I want to. Period!

Some say the service is crappy, but personally I have never had any problems.  I have had LESS dropped calls than when i was on Verizon and Sprint.  I hear people fine and people can hear me fine.

The way the plan works is you pay a monthly fee ( mine is around $45)  that includes UNLIMITED mintues, texting and web browsing .  This price never goes up!  If it is $45, it is $45, no more..... it's set in stone baby! There are no contracts.  You receive 2 text regarding your bill.  One about a week before and one a couple of days before to remind you to pay.  You can pay over the phone, in a store, or by mail.  You DO have to buy the phone from Metro unless you have a phone which can be flashed.

Here is a link to their page which explains the plansMetro PCS plans

The plans are nationwide I think.   When my husband travels out of state, we can usually communicate unless  he is out in the middle of no where!

I never understood paying for minutes!  What a load of BS!  Their is no telling how many thousands of dollars we wasted on other cell phone providers.  Unless someone better than Metro PCS comes along, I WILL NEVER SWITCH!  Verizon can keep their network!  Sprint, AT & T, and T-mobile can all keep thier catchy phrases, CONTRACTS and over priced services!

I give Metro PCS 5 sparkles and a snap (with attitude)

Can ya hear me now????  Yep on Metro!

Laser Hair Removal

Shaving is such a PAIN!  At least it is for me.  I'm already rushed enough in the morning and have no extra time for shaving!  I'm one of those people who can shave their legs, underarms, or where ever first thing in the morning and by the afternoon i've got stubble!  It makes me mad sometimes, because I have friends who can shave and they are good for 2 days!  What's up with that!

After months of contemplation and trying to decide if I wanted to spend the money on laser hair removal, I came across a billboard on my way to work advertising laser hair removal. And for a  VERY GOOD PRICE.  I thought, "hmm, is this a scam?  why is it so cheap?"  I called, spoke w/the owner and felt very comfortable after our conversation.  I made an appointment.  Lynn (the owner) consulted with me, then we got started with my 1st treatment.

The "body part" shall remain nameless!  She gave me some glasses to wear,  took some really cold gel, placed it on the area/s and then started zapping away.  It felt like a little sting.... not bad at all....waxing hurts worse than this did.

I've been back for 2 additional treatments and can tell a difference.  The hairs are becoming more sparse,not as thick, and starting to disappear. I've still got 3 more treatments to go.  I CAN NOT WAIT TO BE HAIR FREE!!!!!!

"Laser hair removal has become one of the most common cosmetic procedures performed in the United States. Laser hair removal utilizes beams of highly concentrated light designed to selectively penetrate into the hair follicles, to be absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicles and to destroy the hair within that hair follicle."

I will give another review and final rating once i've had all my treatments......  it's just that i'm so excited with the results i'm seeing now!

Overall I give Laser Hair Removal 5 sparkles and a snap!  I would definitely reccomend this to a friend!

If you are in the Atlanta area and interested in laser hair removal or possibly other cosmetic procedures please visit BellaDerma MedSpa to learn more..... oh and mention you saw this on 2 Blondes with a Blog!  Maybe she'd throw ya a discount.

Here's to "no more razors",

KEURIG

I have found something I love almost as much as I love lip gloss and that is saying a lot! It’s the Keurig! I purchased the Keurig Special Edition Home Brewing System – B60 about two months ago.  It is described as “just 3 easy steps to choose, brew and enjoy your favorite coffees and teas.”  You use the K-Cups for brewing.  These are individual cups with a big assortment of coffee strengths, coffee flavors, different flavors of tea, etc.  The Keurig brews one cup of coffee or tea at a time.  It takes only seconds for your cup to be brewed.  I love that!
I can see some disadvantages. One would be the cost of the K-Cups.  This can get costly if you or your family  drink a lot of coffee.  However, they have a My K-Cup that you can purchase (mine came with one) that allows you to fill it with your own coffee.  Then the individual K-Cups wouldn’t be necessary.  Some may not like the fact it only brews one cup at a time.  Some may think they are too costly. They range in price from $109.99 – $169.99.  Just depends on the model you prefer and each does something a little different.  Grocery stores and Super centers are starting to carry a large variety of the K-Cups but not all the varieties that are available.  Bed, Bath and Beyond carries the largest selection.  Any of the K-Cups can be ordered online.
Overall, I simply love this machine.  Therefore, my rating for the Keurig out of 5 sparkles is……
Quality – 5 out of 5   
Product – 5 out of 5
Ease of Use – 5 out of 5
Cost – 4 out of 5
Would I purchase again or recommend to a friend – absolutely!
OVERALL – 5 SPARKLES AND A SNAP
Until the next review,
