Laser Hair Removal for a Good Price? by Glamorous
Can someone recommend a reasonably priced laser hair removal place? I used to go to VITAMIN CLINIC but they raised their prices to 400 for just the face and no retouch :sosad: Plus they always give me a lot of grief and speak ZERO ...
Thank you. Was 750 for the face only? That seems kind of steep. Although, thinking about it, VITAMIN CLINIC would be 800 for the face now, because retouch is the same price as the initial visit. I'll check them out in any case. Read More

Hyndai accent Car keys damaged by kaleemimran
My dear friends, my car key have completely damaged after falling from three-storey staircase and it broke open into many pieces. I patiently joined the pieces one by one and luckily I am able to unlock my car door manually but the remote sensor ...
You could maybe try going to a hyundai dealer, just do a search. But I would think only the car rental place would be able to replace it, being a car remote and everything. I can't imagine they would charge you more than the cost of the remote. Read More
