Problem: What would be an example of an positive review?

Answer: Inside, it looks just like a mall. But what gives it its charm is that it's underground! I felt like I was exploring an underground city that thrived after some horrific disaster that occured above ground. For a few seconds, I thought 'Waterworld' meets "Blast from the Past". There really is no logic behind it, but that's what I felt, and what I feel is a result of my feelings. That makes sense. There weren't many chain-retail stores (they were all above ground, those snooty bastids), mostly off brands and family-owned businesses. But browsing through mom-and-pop shops made me feel warm inside. Some of the shopowners tried their best to push merchandise, and I was a victim of their puppy-face guilt-trip sales pitches. But no worries, I needed another pair of faux-shearling-lined cowboy boots.

Answer: I'm a die-hard Hoodlums fan. I was there in 1998 when they started up, and I'm happy to say that I still can shop there in 2008! After the disastrous ASU Memorial Union fire, I saved up all my CD-buying until Hoodlums relocated from the MU to their current location on the southwest corner of Guadalupe and McClintock in Tempe. I don't know how they do it, but there is musical magic going on at Hoodlums. The staff there truly know their musical stuff ~ if you are in need of musical advice, they will actually make recommendations based on your tastes. The range of the CDs available is joyfully eclectic. I'm always in the mood for a treasure hunt at Hoodlums to see what new and cool music I can find, and they never fail to have in stock some artist that I have never heard of but that is a worthy addition to my collection. So, in summary, go to Hoodlums, enjoy the in-store music, browse for a while, buy a few CDs (I attempt to limit it to 6 or less on each trip!!), and then stop by the Trader Joe's for some wine to go with your new musical selections! Repeat as needed.

Answer:
If you don't have alot of money, you're best choosing a different dentist. I'm writing this review after a very uncomfortable and unpleasant experience with Harris Dental. I am super disappointed that I won't be going to this dentist for my dental health and cosmetic work because I was so excited when I first started the process. I can tell you Dr. Brian Harris and Dr. Joe Harris are amazing, kind and very professional. It was Dr. Joe's manner and thoughtful nature that had me take on two jobs just to be able to afford the $6000+ in work that they quoted me. The staff? Not so much. The thing is, most people, especially in this challenging economy do not have affordable health care much less affordable dental care. Like me, many are not able to finance the high cost of dental work and definitely no cosmetic care. I am someone that, as a single mom put off and put off my own dental needs instead choosing to take care of the needs of my family. Now that they are grown I finally felt this was the time I could allow myself the joy of a beautiful smile and healthy teeth - not so fast. Even with budgeting these high priced procedures and working multiple jobs to take on the expense, the $400 and $500 cash out of pocket is difficult so I had to phone the office today to try and either reschedule or to see about other payment options - I wanted badly to make my appointment as I have waited so many years for my new smile! I needed to pick up another client to cover the costs as my savings was asked of for family needs this month - what did I get when I called the office? I was scolded by the receptionist, told by the assistant, "you didn't know 48 hours ago you didn't hav e enough money? Now you are causing us and the doctor to have breaks in the day we won't be able to fill and that's costing us money." I realize if I could I should have contacted them sooner, but seriously? Have you been to Harris Dental? The decor and equipment alone is worth more than most salaries. Anyway the point to my post is I'm really disappointed I won't be continuing with Harris Dental and I wanted to tell anyone here that they are probably the best in the city, but if you are working class or a single mom with a tight budget and responsibilities, your better off choosing a lesser known dentist that might be sympathetic to your situation and be willing to work with you on the upfront costs. I'm determined to get the new smile I've always wanted! If you have a dentist to recommend please share with me!
