Ink Tanks For The Cannon Mp 530 Printer - mx700, ink cartridge


I use these cartridges in my Canon MP970. I'm very happy with the printer and its years of good service and certainly have no complaints about the ink. The PGI 5 cartridge is larger and lasts longer than the other black cartridge in this printer. Quality has been good.



Several times I've used generic black cartridges bought from Databazaar. The cartridges are half the price of the Canons and results have been satisfactory, though the Canon inks are noticeably better.

I've also noticed that though they are the same size, the Canon cartridges do last longer than the generic types.



The ink cartridges are easy to install and easy to remove. Usually they last many weeks after the blinking warning of low ink appears on my monitor. I use them until the very end when they are totally empty. Canon PGI-5 Pigment Black Ink Tank

Where I live the sales tax is 9.2% - OUTRAGEOUS. Local government wastes so much money on their opulent city hall, crazy retirement plans, and other programs. I like to buy from Amazon just to avoid paying the sales tax, its kin of my way of protesting goverment waste!!! And besides, this is a way better price than any of the local office supply stores.

I have found that G&G ink carts are the best of the alternatives to Canon that I have tried. However, I ultimately come back to the genuine Canon ink carts. The PGBK-5 is no exception. The Canon item is expensive, but it always looks crisp, installs cleanly, and never dirties up the printer.



A word about sources. I buy my Canon cartridges from various sources, usually based on price. This time I tried an "Amazon fulfilled" supplier. It was not a good experience. Amazon had problems with a perfectly good credit card and the shipping was slow after that was resolved. The problem with Amazon fulfilled, as opposed to supplier fulfilled, is that you can only leave packaging feedback. This is the only place I could find to relate that experinece. There are better options.

Like all printer manufacturers, Canon almost gives away it's basic printers and makes a bundle on the ink. Pretty much like Gillette giving away a free Fusion razor and picking your pocket when you go to buy the cartridges at $4 a pop.



That's just the way that it is and it makes no difference if you buy Canon, HP or Epson. Whether or not the "generic" ink cartridges are detrimental to the print head is something that only the user can determine. Personally, I've stuck with Canon but I'm not totally convinced that its own brand is any better than the no-name brands that are available for half the price.



With that said, I do have to admit that I've used Canon printers for about ten years and have never had a clogged print head using their brand of ink. Would I have been as fortunate using another brand? I really have no idea. - Mx700 - Ink Cartridge - Canon Mp500 - Cannon Ink'

Great - piece


Pros:

1. great looking watch at a reasonable cost.

2. simple but noticable.

3. light weight.

Cons:

I will let you know when i find something. Baume & Mercier Men's 8780 Riviera Divers Rubber Watch

Recieved this watch today. Bought at 6:30pm friday, was on my doorstep at 10:30amo saturday morning with freeshipping.



Beautiful watch. Not light but not heavy, just weighty enough. Sporty casual buy classy enough for me to wear with a suit and tie.



Interesting thing about the price of this watch. I have heard this but never experienced it....i viewed this watch many times on amazon over the last two weeks. After a week and an unknown number of page views of this watch, the price dropped by $200. Made it very tempting but i still did not buy it. A week later, the price dropped another $100. So $300 lower in price in about two weeks. So i bought it.



Just came bqck to the page and it is back to the original price $300 more than i just purchased for. I had never placed it in my cart before i decided to buy it. Too bad they didnt drop the price of the chrono riviera, i wou,d have bought that instead.



So, if you have time and te item is somewhat expensive, keep viewing on amazon and they will drop tje price to tempt you to buy. I saved $300. - Piece'

17 Inch Laptop Bag For Women - laptop tote, travel


After hunting around online for about a week, I have finally found a great tote bag for my 15" Macbook Pro! There is plenty of space in the bag for files and textbooks. The pockets on the outside of the bag comes in very handy for a cellphone. There is even a latch inside for keys, so they don't get lost in the bag.

The only complaint I have for the bag is the lack of padding for a my laptop. The laptop divider is only a thin material. But this isn't something a laptop sleeve cannot solve.

Overall, this it a great size bag for the amount of stuff you can fit and especially for a 15" laptop. I'm 4'11 and I don't find this bag overwhelming like most laptop bags. JanSport Ella Tote (Black Cabesa Blue Perry Plaid)

I thought this tote looked like it would suit my needs when I saw it online, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was even better than I thought when it arrived. I love how much I can carry while keeping everything organized. My previous tote did not have any small compartments, and I was always losing my keys, ID badge, pens, etc. Now, everything has a place. The bag is large enough to carry everything, but not too ridiculous in size. I did not buy it with the intention of carrying my laptop, but I would probably place my laptop in an additional padded cover if I used this bag to carry it. There is not much padding in the laptop compartment. The water bottle pocket is on the outside so if I ever have a leak, my books/papers are protected. The zipper across the top of the tote is nice and keeps things in place. It is well manufactured and not "cheap" in any way. The clasps and zippers are metal (not plastic). I am beyond happy with this purchase and would highly recommend it.

i love this back pack omg its just the best thing.. ive always enjoyed jansport but this one is just great the colors they have the size the extra pockets inside.. its just the right size and i can fit all my books mini laptop papers and just about all my crap in their and theirs still room for more.. i just love it

This tote comes in awesome patterns and black too of course.

Its the perfect size and shape w/plenty of correct sized pockets to be used as an Airline Carry-on or even to carry around as a Purse/Diaper Bag combo for the mom with a toddler that wants to branch out to a bag more "HER".

LOVE THE POCKETS! Handles are great for carrying in hand or on shoulder.

I love this bag. I bought it originally as a "toddler bag" to transition from my huge diaper bag & liked it so much, I ended up buying a second one (in another color) for my work bag. I love the outside pockets - easy to access, but still secure to hold my keys, cellphone & iTouch. The inside is very spacious, but not bulky. It fits my laptop, plus tons of paperwork & it's comfortable to carry. It's a functional bag that's appealing to look at.

I bought this tote because I was looking for a decent looking bag that would be able to handle all my books, laptop, and work stuff. I have torn the straps off at leasat two bags because my books and laptop are heavy. It holds up extremely well. I can throw everything in and just go without worrying a strap is going to pop on me.

its a very cute bag, its the perfect size, and its comfortable to carry around. I placed 4 notebooks and my 13' laptop into the bag and it doesn't feel overly heavy. I am definitely glad I purchased it and it arrived remarkable fast I placed my order on the 4th and received it on the 6th. I thought the red and stripes would be over whelming but it actually looks cute in person. Thanks great buy! - Travel - Women - Laptop Tote - Bag'

Eye Glasses Repair Kit - eye glasses repair kit, glasses repair kit


Bought 6 of these for $.69 each. One for the truck, car, house, office, backpack and travel trailer. PERFECT. Received them as quickly as I would with Amazon Prime. Great price, great shipping. Thank you will buy from this vendor again! SE Eyeglass Repair Kit, Compact Boxed

Seventy-Nine cents PLUS Shipping. This product isn't worth nine cents. This was quite possibly the most rediculous thing that I have ever purchased. I actually laughed out loud when I opened the package. The nose pads are a piece of foam with a sticky side. What is the sticky side suppose to stick to??? - Eyeglasses - Eye Glasses Repair Kit - Repair Kits - Glasses Repair Kit'

Pocket T-shirt


I am a big man and it is difficult to find t-shirts that fit properly and feel good. Most shirts I have tried in the past have e tendacy to ride up and expose the pot belly we large men usually have, these shirts are long enough to not have that problem. I grade them A+++++. Dickies Men's 2-Pack Short Sleeve Pocket T-Shirts, White, Large

Dickies brand has been a long-time favorite for us. My husband LOVES these T-shirts and rather than traipse from one store to another only "hoping" to find them for him, I ordered them from Amazon.com. These are 99% cotton; seemingly hugely oversized to begin with, but they will shrink ... as with any product made with a high percentage of cotton. After the first washing/drying, these fit my husband perfectly.

As always, service from Amazon was great and the package arrived sooner than expected.

These are basically my favorite shirts on earth. I still have some from ten years ago that hold up great for what they're made for.



But some time in the last few years, Dickies pocket T's (and only the short-sleeved ones as far as I can tell) have become vastly oversized. I have some larges from a couple of years ago that fit me perfectly, as well as some mediums that are now a little too small, so recently I ordered several pairs of large pocket Ts in different colors. They were so huge it was ridiculous, and pre-shrunk so no amount of hot water and dryers would do anything to them (believe me, I tried).



Seriously huge in every dimension: chest, sleeve length, overall length. I could gain 50 pounds and four inches in height and they might fit me right. This was the case with all three packs of shirts, all in different colors, so it wasn't just an isolated mislabeling. I don't know if this is a commentary on the obesity of Americans or a shifting customer base that prefers to dress like gangster toddlers or what. Dickies calls this a "generous fit," but for as much as I love a good cheeseburger, I don't need quite that much generosity. I sent them back for mediums and we'll see how those do.



What's weird is at the same time I bought several other Dickies shirts (button up and long-sleeve pocket Ts) and they fit fine in the appropriate size, just like the old ones did. So watch out with the sizing on the pocket T's and if it's been a few years since you bought them but you know you like them, try a size smaller than what used to work.

I've been buying these tee shirts for years. They are longer than most other brands which I like. I notice now that my old ones---some two years old now---have shrunk some with repeated washings as compared to the new but still fit just fine. You get your moneys worth with Dickies tee shirts.

where i work we have to wear all white and i love the dickies tshirts they wear well for quite a few years well i needed new ones and i could only find 1 in the store i went to a friend of mying told me to try and find them on line im so glad i did they are great thankyou!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, agree with others on the oversizing BUT I don't see it as a problem. so many manufacturers are short changing the customer by skimping on fabric quality and size. These shirts will easily outlast most if not all others and they are REALLY pre-shrunk.'

Best Of The Best - micro-dermabras, skin care


The newer face towelettes that are already wet have too many strange things in them and they make my face break out. The Olay 2-in-1 is a simple cloth that you have to wet, but it cleanses and exfoliates very well without additional ingredients that may cause problems for sensitive skin. I've used them for several years. Olay 2-in-1 Normal Daily Facial Cloths, 66-Count

I received samples of these a few years ago and have been using them ever since. I use some other facial cleansers as well, but these are my to go to product for removing eye make-up and for when I travel. You can skip the toner for sure. All you need is these wipes and a moisturizer and your good to go.

I typically don't wear face make-up, but my face just doesn't feel clean w/o using them every night before going to bed. 1 side is a little rougher [like a washcloth] than the other side. Even removes eye make-up, ie waterproof mascara, w/o rubbing too hard.

The Olay facial cloths are soft yet sturdy enough to allow you to really clean your face - all you do is wet them. You don't have to worry about the package drying out since they're dry to start with, but if you don't have access to water, this wouldn't be the cloth to have. And, after using one on my face, I can rinse it out and use it to do a quick wipe up around the sink! Delivery was fast, packaging was fine, cost is good - sometimes you can find it a little cheaper on a special deal at a local store, but not often.

I started using these after one of my favorite beauty gurus on youtube said she had been using them for years. I had been using scrubs to slough off dead skin, but it was irritating my skin and making it worse. Dry skin needs to be exfoliated to keep the dead skin from clogging your pores and making your complexion dull. Anyway, these cloth wipes ended up being perfect!! They are totally gentle on your face and I can even get the soap in my eyes and it does not sting. I thought maybe I should use the ones made for sensitive skin, but these were fine. There is soap already on the cloths, so just add water and scrub :) They really made my skin soft and helped calm redness (which I suspect came from the harsh scrubs I had been using). My face didn't feel uncomfortably tight after washing, but I always apply a moisturizer anyway. Buying the 2 pack was cheaper and I run out of these all the time, so it worked out buying them online. Overall, these are great for my dry skin and they are really convenient for when I'm feeling lazy or tired. Definitely give em' a try! - Skin Care - Olay Pro-x - Cleansers - Micro-dermabras'

The boat cover fit fairly well on the Bayliner. There were two problems. The cover did not fit over the the deck on the back of the boat. The second problem was the straps that hold the cover on. They were not the quality we expected with the fine quality of the cover itself. VORTEX HEAVY DUTY VHULL FISH SKI RUNABOUT COVER FOR 17 18 19' BOAT, BEST AVAILABLE COVER BLUE

The cover is a light cover, it is descent. It does not fit like a customer one, it was tight on the bow, but got looser tward the stern. It does fit ok, and included straps to hold it to the trailer. For the price, great cover.

Heavy-Duty boat cover at an affordable price. Boat covers are one of those items that "you get what you pay for." That being said, this is still a great price for an above-average cover that should last for many years. Thanks for the service!

The cover material is fairly light compared to the more expensive covers I've purchased in the past. Will have to see how it holds up. Considering the price if I get 3 to 4 years out of it I will be satisfied. The fit is fairly good. My boat is 18' and I have two upright poles to keep the tension sufficient to avoid water puddling.

I don't have a ton of experience with boats and covers, but so far it seems to be a good cover. It fits my 19' 88 bayliner capri bowrider better than I could expect. I read a lot of reviews that complained that the straps were confusing. I figured out what works for me just fine. I haven't trailored with it on, but I'd rather not. It keeps the rain and debri out. I may try to find a way to scotch guard it as it does sweat through in the rain, but the vast vast majority runs off. Good cover for the price. Go ahead a buy it.
