Amanda Sells the Shirt off her Back, Kinda

Amanda Bynes launched her clothing line with the store Steve & Barry last August and is still promoting her line.

Unlike many of the Hollywood personalities that have their own "line" of clothing, Amanda has really impressed me. Instead pushing clothes that are too grown up for the pre-teen girls and young teens, she has offered a sensible, mix and match line of clothing that is ACTUALLY AFFORDABLE for the average person. There are no $40 sweatshirts or $75 pair of jeans that are being sold to girls who will outgrown them within a year (if their parents are lucky). All the clothes are under $20!

On both design and price, I will be going out of my way this crazy holiday season to purchase some items from her line for my own daughter this year.

Reported as rumor yesterday, it is now confirmed that Comp USA will be closing their brick and mortar stores!

It's sad to see another physical store close like this. Where else am I going to get a power supply when I want it RIGHT NOW!?!?!

Yet ANOTHER car recall

When the heck are the car manufacturers going to get their act together and figure out how to make cars that work!

Chrylser is recalling over 575,000 cars because "in a limited number of cases, long-term wear on the shift assembly can erode the height of the shift blocker, creating the potential that the vehicle could shift out of park without the key in the ignition," Chrysler said in a statement.
