Great place to find information on healthcare services - Wanted to investigate the cost of getting some elective plastic surgery and this place was a great resource at helping me figure out what the "real" cost would be before going in for consultations.

Probably one of the most useful sites I have recently discovered as it has the prices of just about everything you would want to know all in one location. Sure, prices do vary across the country, but it is nice to have a ballpark figure when you go out to bargain with someone. In this economy, I am pretty much haggling with everyone from my dentist to my auto mechanic. I even printed out a page on this site to show my mechanic :)

Good site for researching the cost of services - I had to replace the toilet in my master bedroom and had no idea what a good price was. Costhelper.com gave me an overview of the process and cost so I felt more comfortable getting quotes from plumbers. http://www.costhelper.com/cost/home-garden/replace-toilet.html

It's really a great resource for all sorts of services.

I had to hire a roof repair guy and had no idea of how much it would cost. It was very useful to read this site and learn about the different costs of the various types of roofs before speaking to the repairman. I haven't used it for much else yet, but it seems to have costs for just about everything.

Outdated contents
February 19, 2019

The contents on the website are all outdated. If you buy something based on their recommendation, you're going to lose money. The website design itself shows that the entire site is outdated.
