"Twin Cities Consumers' CHECKBOOK Can Save You Big $$$"

Checkbook is very useful, and I have no complaints on that score. I saved $100 from it yesterday, in fact.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

Thanks for your outstanding service to our Twin Cities community.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

Love Checkbook because all the hard research work is done! It saves so much time!

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

Consumer Checkbook provides a rating for both price and quality of work for many plumbing, electrical, and computer repair companies in our area. I use it every month or so. As valuable to me as Angie's List.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

Great place to turn to when in need of just about everything.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

Sample Subscriber Comments & Reviews for Bicycle Shops in the Twin Cities Area
CHECKBOOK provides subscriber comments on their experiences with the firms they use. Please remember that individual subscriber comments are informal. Subscriber comments may give you insight into the types of features and problems that exist in a service field, but are not the best basis for selecting or rejecting a specific firm. To assess the quality of a firm's performance, we recommend that you give more weight to the percentages of favorable ratings. Those percentages are generally based on much larger numbers of consumers' ratings (the number of consumer ratings is noted above).

As You Can See Below, Some Bicycle Shops Get High Praise from Their Customers.
Some Others Don't. So Choose Carefully.
