In our area (Panama City, Fl.), Cox Cable has the best bundle price, followed by W.O.W Cable.

For zone 5, two good vendors of own root roses are Northland Rosarium in Spokane, Washington and High Country Roses in Denver. Both have carefully selected roses which can with stand the rigors of zone 5 winters, and both send out large plants which are ready to start growing when they arrive. Two good sources of grafted roses for cold zoners are Palatine and Pickering in Canada. Again, huge, healthy plants which are ready to plant and grow. I have not ordered from Wisconsin Roses, which does also have a great reputation. I think there is also a company in Ohio called Rosefire. If you want modern roses, the ones that look like florist roses, Hybrid Teas and Floribundas, you had probably best stick to grafted roses. Maybe call or email WR for suggestions. Do any of the cities near you have nurseries with good selections? The cheapest way to go is the body bagged roses which are showing up now in the big box stores. Those are a gamble, they might or might not grow, be true to name, be virus free.

The lowest prices I've found for Demeyere are at the Cozy Pineapple. They are lower than the Knife Merchant and Amazon. I believe they will try to meet any other price you find on the web. Amazon isn't too bad either if you already have their free shipping plan. These pieces are heavy. They are such a pleasure to use! Mary Here is a link that might be useful: The Cozy Pineapple

One option could be to call Comcast and just tell them that their price increase is enough that you now want to get rid of them. That should be enough to get them to counter with some sort of promotion -- maybe your old rate continued, or another discount for another time commitment, or ... something. They may offer you more services at the higher price, but if that's not what you want, stick to your objective. You should get what you want.

"How do I get the panel to match with the kitchen design I will have? Will it be custom made from the kitchen cabinet company?" You will have to have someone build the panels to match your other kitchen cabinets, whose sizes are shown on the second page of the spec sheet, and whose installation appears to be described starting on page 41 of the installation instructions. You'll also have to buy handles.

You will have to research locally.

What I have here, even if through a national company, might be very different than what is available in your particular area.

The big companies may have loss-leader rates for a few months to compete with local companies.

Be very careful about the small print and what your actual cost will be after the honeymoon introduction price ends. I just had to go through this with one of my older neighbors, she fell for all the intro sweet stuff and couldn't understand why her bill suddenly jumped way up.

I refuse to bundle just because of the slimy tactics they use and especially when dealing with the elderly.

I don't bundle either..
But then I did away with a house phone about a year ago..we all have cells..

And for high speed, I have one option Comcast/Xfinity...can't use a Phone line based high speed because the phone lines in my neighborhood have not been upgraded...which also leaves out Satellite.

I absolutely love the bundles! I sure hope I don't have to change providers to get the same rate when this one is over. I am currently with Verizon FIOS and got the 2 year bundle for $89 a month and also got a $500 Visa gift card when I signed up. I HAD been paying Comcast $117 plus the local phone company $35 each month for the same services. I didn't think I would like the Phone service because we all have cells also, but I like having a home phone and answering machine, and, of course, there is the same free long distance. Helpful when waiting for some customer service lines that aren't always 800 lines anymore. I had seen the ad for the Visa gift card bundle on TV and then went online to check it out. If they give me the option to just re-sign for the $89 a month, I will jump at it. There were NO hidden charges at all, but they DO add state tax. I have 4 TVs hooked to cable and the internet is accessible easily throughout both levels of the house - and my house has a pretty long "footprint" - it is easily 70 feet from the router to the farthest computer using the wi-fi. No complaints.

We're paying AT&T for a land line $17 (why don't I dump THAT?), wifi at lowest speed offered $28, and the TV $81. Add the various taxes and it's $126/mo.

Irksome to see more offered to new subscribers for half this. We're in the Chicago area.

Today, though, I'm just happy the electricity hasn't cut out -- almost 100F yesterday and today, with more to come.

Sometimes there's an introductory price when you become a new customer. It may last 6-12-24 months.

Sometimes you get a better rate when you "bundle" (have multiple services from the same provider). That also might last a limited time.

What's available varies significantly from place to place. There are dozens of phone and cable providers and they all don't have the same price. The same one will have different prices from one city to the next.

There's no small print. Ask for the prices to expect and then compare what you find out among your alternative providers.

We had Brighthouse w high speed internet & cable for 10+ yrs and slowly the price crept up from $70 to $90 a month. Two years ago I moved over to CenturyLink w PrismTV and top of the line internet speed for $80. The first year it was fine, 2nd year the bill was all over the place. The service is perfect, we live w/in a few hundred feet of the switch so that helps alot! The price thou is constantly changing up to $20+ higher and that would take 45 minutes on the phone to fix ea time. I do not have 45 minutes to even clean my own house enough to have a maid come clean for me, let alone waste 45 minutes mostly on hold to save a piddly $20. Last Oct I signed a "contract" so my price would remain the same but obviously they don't understand contract...I wish it would be constant so I can pay automatically but the very idea that it changes irritates me, not the fact it's $20 more LOL. If I have to pay extra to break the contract the least they can do is keep my contract price constant, otherwise I can ALWAYS find time to make their customer service earn their pay! The service has been stellar thou!

when Oct rolls around we are dropping them i think. What we are going to go to I don't know, we can live w/o cable tv mostly and have wifi thru DH's work puter from Verizon when he is actually home (4 days a week not here). DH gets 50% off Verizon stuff but FIOS is not in our area yet. DH does have a co-worker who pays $200 a month for FIOS even w the discount so that may be even more than CenturyLink... I have a friend w CLEAR internet she is very happy with. ~ liz
