Weathertech floor mats
by Susan Ryan 20 Jul '23

20 Jul '23

Thanks to all 30-some people who replied to my query about floor mats. Overwhelmingly, Weathertech floor mats are popular. I decided to read reviews online and I am curious to know how recently everyone bought theirs. This is important because the reviews of Weathertech were, in a word, awful. The site is "sitejabber" and there were 297 reviews; a few were positive. All sounded legitimate I disregarded the reviews about cup holders, and other products and concentrated on floor mats. (One of my concerns was how easy are they to remove for hosing off. I was picturing that they wrapped over the hump between the 2 front seats. How could they be removed if you had to lift them from both sides? Then we looked and realized that the "hump" as it was, is no longer. Instead, our hump contains the gear shift, SO, no hump to lift the floor mat past. Instead, there are 2 floor mats--one for the driver's floor and one for the passenger side. So they should lift out easily for cleaning. The reviews can be summarized as follows: 1. They used to be rubber and are now some sort of plastic. 2. They curl up at the edges and so don't fit snugly and dirt can get under and around them. 3. The laser measuring isn't giving a good fit. 4. When you try to clean them they don't get clean even with scrubbing with a brush. 5. When they dry, they look awful (there were photos). 6. The call-takers are surly, rude, and unhelpful. 7. It costs some $50 to return things. So, what to do? Some of you were kind enough to send photos and we even went to see someone's mats this morning. As I said, everyone here seems to love them. But the reviews did sound legitimate. Quite a few are from 2023 so maybe there has been a change from when you bought yours. I couldn't find reviews on the Weathertech site but there are sites that mention Weathertech. We are torn. But we appreciate all your messages and will let you know if we get some. Thanks so much. Susan

ISO 5 gallon jugs
by Nicholas Miller 20 Jul '23

20 Jul '23

This is a long shot but if anyone has empty 5 gallon jugs they don’t use and don’t know what to do with or where to get rid of them, let me know and I can take them. Ideally they’d have lids too, not just ones you can unseal and flip onto a water dispenser. Lemme know. Thanks. Nick --

Hi. I’m an experienced pet owner (and mother of 3 teens) who is available to house/pet/plant sit while you are away. If you in Highland Park and need someone to check on your animals once or twice a day, send me an email. I’m not available for overnight stays but can do dog walks or yard playtime as well as hang out with cats etc. I also have experience with lizards, snakes, fish and other exotics and lots of houseplant and garden care. -Joanna Elsas 412-973-1847 Sent from my iPhone

New Apple Watch Band
by Lorraine Chesek 19 Jul '23

19 Jul '23

Could anyone out there use a brand new pink mesh Apple Watch band for the larger size watch? I bought the wrong size and didn’t realize it until it was too late to return. It should fit any series, but it needs to be a 44-45 mm watch size. I am not looking to sell — just looking for someone who could use it. Email me if you are interested. Thanks, lmchesek(a)gmail.com <mailto:lmchesek@gmail.com>
