''My search is over. I finally found someone that can color my hair. Jaymie listened to me, made suggestions, and went to work. She gave me highlights that look natural, not cheesy. I love it and I love showing it off. Thank you Jaymie...''

''I live near here and won't go back-
I have been a couple of times and each time received terrible service - once even took a few friends from work for a birthday lunch - was embarresed later I made the suggestion -- everyone complained....''

''I always value customer service over anything and you will get the best at Bradley & Co. Paul and Dawn are great and can always get what you need. They always have the most unique pieces....''

''I had a very pleasant experience at Head To Toe Day Spa recently. The staff was very professional and very accommodating. They made me feel like a queen !! I encourage anyone to go and enjoy !...''

''Britt's is famous all over for their donuts. Anyone who has ever been to Carolina Beach has had to at least experience the delicious aroma. Of course, once you've smelled them, your taste buds will hold you hostage until you actually eat ''one.'' However, you can't eat just one. Luckily, their prices are excellent. They accept cash only and ring you up on an old fashioned cash register. You can even watch them make the donuts through the window the same way they have always done, and not on a co...''

''I love Rose's stores but this one in particular really needs to cleaned up. It just looks so junky when you walk in. It almost makes you want to turn around and go right back out....''

''I often summer at kure beach, as well as indian beach. Every time I go to kure, I always make a point to stop. The shop is fun, and it also has an arcade. But beware of pelicans out on the pier!...''

''My husband and i were married five years ago and we used Danny's for our wedding cake. It was an incredible value and tasted wonderful. We brought it back for our anniversary and Danny re-frosted it with ''Happy Anniversary''. I was told by friends to buy another cake since a year old cake in the freezer wouldn't taste that great, but it was as good as i remembered from a year ago!...''

''I prefer going to the Lowe's Foods on Oleander Drive to any other grocery store in town. Their meat counter is always showing great selection as is their cheese selection and I have found the butchershop employees to be very polite and knowledgable. Their prices are competitive on most items and if there were any complaint I would have it would be that the produce section, while providing very fresh produce, is somewhat limited especially with a Harris Teeter right across the road. They also see...''

''WOW! We had no idea such a place existed. We attended one of Toni's winemaking classes and now we make our own wine at home! She's a gem! The wine is absolutely fabulous with excellent price points. Definitely a destination of distinction!...''

''I discovered Lumina Winery at a Wine festival. Most of the wineries in eastern North Carolina were there and I liked Lumina Winery the best. If you havn't tried them you are missing out. Everything that was said in the other reviews is completely true....''

''I have been able to find almost all I need at Wal-mart. From socks to tires, from soda to meats. Prices are right and of good quality. Friendly service and GREAT return policy if ever needed, plus layaway....''

''I walked into Fountaine Bridals, and had such a great time, not only because they offer everything from gowns, to mother-of-the-bride, to pretty much your whole party, but the staff was soooo nice and helpful. I didnt feel rushed or felt persueded to buy anything. They just let me look and htey didnt bother me until I asked for their help! It was nice not to have a staff breath down your neck until you felt guilty to try something on! I loved those 2 women are wonderful!- Thanks for letting me b...''

''A great family owned feel and quality DeBeers diamonds compliment the friendly staff in this very professional store!...''

''If you like little shops with a quaint atmosphere, then this is the place to be. It has many little shops, with a variety of merchandise to purchase. It's never crowded like the malls, but still provides the quality one might find in the merchandise from the mall. Actually, probably better.

So go shopping in the quaint little cotton exchange, then have lunch at one of the little resturants down by the river. On the cobblestone streets, you can't go wrong....''

''This store opened about 6 months ago in the Landfall Center with a new concept in wine. Very good wines at excellent prices that are organized by personal taste. If you are a novice or an expert this store can help you find wines that you like at the right price. They can also do wine by the glass so you can browse and enjoy wine at the same time....''

''went today and found an enormous amount of variety in homemade,lovely and well priced items....''

''Wont shop WalMart anymore! Target has much better quality items, sure Walmart may be a few cents cheaper on some things but you get what you pay for there. Ever noticed how the returns lines are sooo long at Walmart. Target is cleaner, better laid out, Wider Isles, better quality selections, cleaner and nicer employees, nicer people to shop with, better designed parking lot, easier to access from the road, gosh I could go on forever. Always leave Target happy instead of feeling like a rushed hea...''

''They have the best ice cream downtown has to offer!...''

''The staff are excellent and knew exactly what I would like.. Didn't feel overwhelmed at all. Thanks especially Tara!!...''

''This is an excellent thrift store. Every time I walk in there's something new and something on sale. The owner always remembers who I am and helps me find the Nora Roberts books that I'm looking for! It's clean, organized and funky. It's everything I want in a thrift store, check it out, you won't be disappointed!...''
