They nickel and dime you to death. If you're moving here because the rent is lower, look elsewhere. You pay more living here than in a comparable place that costs more.
Office staff is totally disorganized and leaves paperwork in your door (without even using tape—which they'd charge you for, I'm sure). My eviction notice was in a bush next to my door. (The eviction notice was because they credited my rent check to another apartment.)
The parking situation is terrible.
Repairs take forever. Broken garbage disposal took three months. (The last time I went in before it was finally replaced, they told me it was done already....) Leak in the exterior wall between the bedroom and the common area took months—three times my closet was soaked.
Learn from my mistake and stay far far away from this place.

Since Henkle's started selling their knives at Wal-Mart, they moved production from Germany to China. The knives are now much lower quality.
So if I, as a consumer, would prefer to pay more for a well-made, durable product that I can use forever (instead of a cheaper one that I will need to replace), I am losing that option.

Price is not the only factor in buying.
(And if you really want to save money, stop buying crap at all, instead of buying it cheap.)
Yes, they employ a ton of people, but their salaries and benefits are not ones that I would clamor for.
Yes, their prices are cheaper, but the cost of low prices is not worth it. I have not shopped in a Wal-Mart (or Sam's Club) for seven years, and I don't plan to start again.

In the house, I have a convenient spot where the purse always goes. If my cell phone rings, I know right where it is ... and when I'm done on it, I put it back (unless it's charging).
When I'm out, if I drove, I feel free to take the purse off and leave it anywhere safe — I can't get far without it, as my keys are inside. If I didn't drive, I keep it on. The strap is long enough that it's out of the way.
My husband has a spot where he empties his pockets. It's a huge mess, but his wallet, keys, and phone are always in that mess somewhere.
