I feel from my experience Zoosk@ https://www.zoosk.com/ Zoosk.com is full of players and no one comes across as serious on Zoosk in looking for a real relationship. What do we expect for free? Sometimes we get what we pay for. I recommend trying a paid option to see if your chances improve in having better luck with chemistry in finding a soulmate or partner if that is what you want.

Tip for consumers:
Zoosk offers no refund on paid dating services. Think before you pay Zoosk. Is it really worth it?

Habanero Mexican Restaurant on 501 Van Houten Ave, Clifton NJ has the most scrumptious shrimp tacos and meals with fresh toppings and seasonings. I love the shrimp tacos with Mexican style rice, beans, a bit of cucumber salad, Mole and a side of taco spicy seasoning. The 2 shelled tacos are both soft and hard filled with fresh slaw and radishes. You get good sized portions of food here in a welcome clean environment on the border of Clifton and Passaic New Jersey. You can get a variety of delicious Mexican foods and drinks here whether you eat@ the restaurant delivered thru Uber eats or for take out!

Tip for consumers:
Do not expect restaurant to be open on Sunday or have their own driver.

Revlon makes quality hair care including hair tools. I love my wet and dry Revlon hair brush. This plugin hair brush with 3 settings is so useful keeping my hair shinier and more manageable. This Revlon wet and dry brush makes combing hair a breeze.

Tip for consumers:
Amazon.com sells almost everything @ better prices including name brand hair tools like my Revlon wet dry hair brush.

In 2022 I visited Schweiger Dermatology in Rutherford NJ a few times for an arm rash I could not get rid of. My arm was so enflamed. I had a rash and growth that was causing more irritation all under one arm and sometimes left my skin peeling and cracking. Sometimes the rash would clear up briefly. Than it would return and got worse spreading. No Dermatologists would see me for months. I kept searching. I got blessed one day when I got a quick next day appointment with the Dermatologist Mimi Oloff in Rutherford NJ@ Schweiger Dermatology. Mimi Oloff was so helpful and she accepted my insurance.

On arrival@ every appointment the receptionist let me go in quickly. After a few visits and failed medication treatments a skin sample was cut out of my underarm rash area a biopsy for a medical evaluation to find what was causing the arm rash.

The underarm skin growth was eliminated with this skin cut/ biopsy. I was sent to another office of this practice in Hackensack in a few weeks. By the time I had the Hackensack appointment my rash I had ongoing for months cleared up. It has been a few months with no rash returning yet. I highly recommend Schweiger Dermatology

Tip for consumers:
Schweiger Dermatology is high recommended for attentive prompt Dermatology skin care.

Products used:
Over the counter Monkey butt non chafing powder and Hibiclense skin cleaner for follow up care.

I went to the Krayzie Melodies VIP music event on February 25TH, 2022@ the Aloft hotel in Secaucus New Jersey on 460 Harmon Meadow BLVD. My trustees and I both paid for it. This was a Uniquely Coordinated LLC/ Eventbrite event. I had a VIP lanyard/pass scanned@ the event earlier in the evening. The event started very late after the 8:00 PM listed time.

My friend had a VIP lanyard pass as well. When the actual VIP came up my friend and I were both rejected. I was told loudly by the security guy no more pictures. Security said loudly to get back. It looked like others who were males of another race went up after me with no problem. Others got pictures with the celebrity I paid to get VIP pics for close to midnight. The VIP was mixed in close to the regular crowd in the same big room. It looked like Non VIP people who did not pay got into the VIP area for pictures with the celebrity I was told to stand back from after I paid.

After my VIP rejection. I tried to talk to someone later@ the Aloft hotel front desk who pointed to an empty area towards the front lobby area. It was noisy there and very disorganized. If the hotel cameras were checked for that night it would likely show the security person gesturing for me to move back close to midnight. Then my friend was rejected his paid VIP access as well soon after me.

Any footage or images I got there for my blog were taken before the paid VIP. I believe these two VIP rejections were discrimination. My VIP lanyard/pass was scanned prior to the actual VIP. My VIP lanyard was scanned but the security still rejected me@ the actual VIP later. So the VIP lanyard pass was useless.

I watched a vase shatter near me and water spilled on the lobby floor which took several reminders for the hotel to get someone to clean it up when my friend went up to the front desk a few times within a few hours. The whole event was too cluttered together with no specifics on what the paid VIP actually offered besides 1 complimentary free drink per guest which I never saw or received. The event was very disorganized. Uniquely Coordinated scammed me out of over $200. I am still trying to get back@ least half of this money paid out that came from my own pocket. An email to someone working for this organization has gotten me no refund. I will do my research on future VIP events before paying and will not be paying Uniquely Coordinated for any more VIP events.

Tip for consumers:
Avoid Uniquely Coordinated LLC paid events and event planning.

I purchased a Tacklife water vac through Walmart.com. The Tacklife spread dirt and water around more than it picked up. This wet vac is more of a dust blower more than a wet dry vac. First I used this wet vac as regular vacuum. I received no filter to use this as a wet vac as shown in the included accessory image. I waited a long time to use it looking for a filter. No filters were sold specifically for this wet vac brand or model. By the time I attempted to use my wet vac to suck up water on my carpet it never picked up any water.

I emailed Tacklife customer service about the missing filter. I receive a reply in broken English wording that was not clear to me. I never received any refund or filter. I sent accessory included images to show what I needed. I thanked Tacklife in the email reply thinking I would be sent my requested filter. This is a foreign company that only understands dollar signs because I was never sent the wet vac filter I requested that was supposed to be included with purchase. My wet vac never picked up one drop of water. I had to buy another brand name wet vac that worked with accessories listed in purchase that were actually included. I will never order anything from Tacklife again. I wasted $43.96 on this reject wet vac.

Tip for consumers:
Buy name brand reputable products. Do not buy unfamiliar brands including Tacklife to save money because paying less for unfamiliar names can backfire and end up costing more $.

  • Eventbrite

I paid to go to an EventBrite event recently. I had two paid VIP's. I am lucky I got my video footage for my blog before the actual paid VIP. My VIP was scanned prior to event. When the VIP started in the same room as Non VIP around midnight, the security rejected me and my friend from the actual VIP yet let other sgo around me to VIP. I did not get my paid time with the celebrity I paid to get pics with. There was no specifics on what is included in the VIP except 1 free complimentary drink per ticket holder. I never saw nor received the complimentary drinks. The whole event was very disorganized. An email to customer service got me nowhere. I am still trying to get my money back. Beware of these scammers hiding out online.

Swagbucks works if you have free time to earn gift cards and do tasks such as advertising tasks such as watching ads in videos.

You can also deal with the hassle of screen-shotting and adding details for proof you were not credited customer support when surveys do not pay which is a regular occurrence for me.

Swagbucks beats other sites that only offer sweepstakes and make have you do more work for less.
