Question of the Week: Have You Replaced Your Old TV with a Flat Screen?

Permalink
Posted by Elana Safronsky 2/8/2010 6:12:00 PM
I'm going to be honest: I have not . While I may not be a good example of someone who keeps up with the latest in electronic gadgets , I am certainly concerned with all things home, so it strikes me as odd that I've not jumped on the flat screen bandwagon.

Permalink
Posted by Elana Safronsky 1/26/2010 2:49:00 PM
Like all first-time buyers, when we were looking for a home we had a long, inflated list of 'must-haves' which we eventually had to eat. When we finally met and fell in love with our dilapidated beauty, the list of things we said we absolutely could not

Permalink
Posted by Vanessa 12/21/2009 9:30:00 AM
