<p>Bunsen, I’ll have to look up what a scatmat is, but it sounds like you put in on something to deter or shock your pet into staying off! When I pull in the driveway I can see him sitting on the chair like a king, and he hops off once he sees me get out of the car.</p>
<p>D just called & asked if we could get her a robotic vacuum cleaner (both she & roommate have long hair & are not great housekeepers). I just placed an order at Costco.com and it will be shipped soon. She’s very happy! 
I told her it made more sense to put it on my credit card, just in case there is a problem with it. She was quite happy to do so. 
I have been VERY happy with AmEx Costco’s extended warranty folks–they do an awesome job! Much less stress than I’ve had with other extended warranty departments for Visa and other credit cards so far. Have told them so.</p>
<p>So I’m looking at a wedding registry and the bride wants a Miele S2180. It’s $599 and BB&B doesn’t accept the coupons on a Miele. So I tried shopping around. In the first place, it’s the exact same price everywhere. Also, few places carry the S2180. They do, however, have a S2181 for the exact same price.</p>
<p>Is there a difference?</p>
