2 Coverages today!

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (128031) • United States 25 Sep

The rate this year is $47.17 for 40 minutes. That’s an easy extra $94 for sitting here when I have to be here anyway. I’ll take it!

Quite A Day

Juliaacv @Juliaacv (57707) • Canada 22 Sep

Today was my appointment for my cystoscope. I have to have it done annually for a cancer recheck. Thankfully, I got the 'all clear' again this time around-nothing that I ever take for granted that's for sure. My husband and I...

The Eye Doctor Has Approved My Getting Eyelid Lift Surgery

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (53) • United States 23 Sep

He's 100% certain that insurance will cover it. He documented it very well and said that I totally qualify for it as a vision issue (not a cosmetic issue). He was a very nice young eye surgeon. He just moved here from Oklahoma...

Do spelling errors on products bother you?

Amber @AmbiePam (128031) • United States 22 Sep

That was fun!

snowy @snowy22315 (213344) • United States 22 Sep

I just got a 20 00 bonus on a survey I did. Not that it will dramatically change my fortunes, but free money is good money. I was checking my balance and saw almost 30 bucks in there when I had already cashed out earlier..so yay!...

I bought two bars of soap at Dollar Tree for a quarter

snowy @snowy22315 (213344) • United States 22 Sep

Although they aren't quite as big as typical soap bars they are full size. I guess people don't go for generic soaps. They kind of look like an ivory knock off. Anyway, I was pleased with the deal. I am not a soap stickler. Would...

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (63403) 21 Sep
