We ended up buying one of those that comes with 3 phones and 3 bases, but only one needs to run into the phone jack. I believe it is a vetech phone. We have had it for months now and love it. Plus with 3 phones, as long as you hang them up, you never will have a dead phone.

We have a Uniden phone ~ it has a phone/answering machine plugged into the wall and then a cordless base. We've had a few years and have had no troubles or complaints with it.

Mine's a Vtech w/ 2 handsets, ans mach, and it's great.

There's a great site which lists what's on sale for all the stores in a particular state.

Not sure what state you're in but for Calif the url is:

www.salescircular.com/ca.shtml

For Arizona it's www.salescircular.com/az.shtml

So just put in your state's abbrev and scroll to Phones.

All I did was see what's on sale then search that model & "reviews" to make sure no1 had horrible things to say about it, since I think the technology is mature enough that just about any company CAN make a good one.

I had bad luck with Uniden, but I know others have not. I love my Panasonic.

I loved the Panasonic set we had at the office -- it was great. We have a vtech that I bought about 8 months ago -- with the three handsets -- and two out of the three already have batteries that have burned out. We're actually good "battery people", too :lol: Seriously, we do all the right things -- even though with the NiMH batteries they aren't supposed to have memory problems. Who knows . . . if 100 people buy them and ONE is going to go sour -- guess who it will be???!!! <_<

I purchased Panasonic however this happened: I callled home from work and my husband couldn't hear me...only when I called from work phone...when I called home from my cell it was Ok. I brought the Panasonic back.

Now I bought a Radio Shack and it is like two tin cans and a string! Very tin sounding and muffled. I have to return it too.

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
