I'm using Gain now, but when it gets out of the dryer it doesn't smell as good anymore.

I'm trying to find an online retail store for bathroom furnishings kind of like kinglinen.com (which is a wonderful site but doesn't have much for bathroom furnishings). I've found a few that have like sinks and toilets and stuff but I'm looking for a site that has more of the rugs, curtains, wall decor, soap dishes, etc. that are name brand at the retail price. Please help because I am having no luck!

We've tried clay owls (they just become friends), tried the sticky glue stuff, even tried spikes. Is there a sure-fire way to get rid of them??

I want to re-do my son's room with the Disney theme. I don't want to buy one mural, as they are all specific to one Disney movie, rather than many. And I don't want to paint the characters myself, as they look tacky when you do that. Does anyone know where I can find life-size stick ups of Disney/Pixar characters online?? Any info would be a great deal of help! Thanks!!

I recently purchased a new Kenmore range with a ceramic cook top. The range itself is bisque colored and apparently the cook top now only comes in bisque even though the website for Sears shows a black ceramic cook top. Our last range was also in bisque but with a black cook top.

After the first couple of uses, I noticed a brown stain that seems like it was baked into the cook top. Nothing spilled over from the pot, but when it was taken off the stove, there was the stain. I tried the scrub pad that came with the oven with some soap and water, but the stain doesn't appear to be on the surface. I'm ready to have Sears come in and take back the oven. Its only 2 weeks old. Any comments would be appreciated.

I have a PC, Monitor,Modem, TV, Cable box and a mini-fridge plugged in. I go to plug in the Christmas tree lights and the breakers trips. I unplug the Christmas tree lights and reset the breaker. I go into the laundry/storage room (also in the basement.) Turn on the light switch and the breaker trips again. Reset the breakers and experienced no troubles the rest of the night. Do I have too much power going on and not enough power to support it?

I don't know if they even exist, or what they are called. I want to unscrew a light bulb and then screw in this adapter that looks like a wall outlet, so I can plug christmas lights into it. Any idea??

My friends and I just rented a house that has two fireplaces, and we're wondering if anyone knows how much it costs to get an inspection and a cleaning if nescessary. Can they be separated, or are they just included in a package.

Also, since we're renting, is the landlord required to make sure the chimneys are in good, clean working order, or will we have to pay for it.

My parents have galvanized plumbing in their home. The house was built in the early 1900's. They have fixed up alot of the home, but the plumbing is last on the list.

Today they lost their hot water - right before Christmas. Super bad timing.

My husband and I want to give them a monetary gift to help cover the cost...if not the whole cost.

Does anyone know how much this will cost?
Or, if you've had similar work how much you paid?

THANKS!!

I am making 12 shirts for a work function. I have been looking all over the internet but need a cheaper alternative. I have heard that printing off my own screen prints and ironing them on will not last. Any ideas or suggestions?
