New review policy

Just a heads up. My product review policy is changing. As of May 1, 2021, I will no longer be accepting offers that ask me to pay first and submit for reimbursement later. Instead, products can now be mailed to me directly at the address below. This will help me speed up processing time and get reviews or feedback to you much faster. Email me at gayle@gaylecrabtree.com if you have any questions. 

My address is 

Gayle Crabtree

448 Cummings St. #173

Abingdon, VA 24210

Blessings,

Gayle

You've Been Reviewed .net contains my copyrighted material

You've Been Reviewed.net is running my copyrighted material on their blog. This is plagiarism. Please disregard the You've Been Reviewed blog for that reason. I worked for years to create content that you enjoy. You're probably wondering how You've Been Reviewed is displaying my content (without permission no less!)

Earlier this year my domain name of www.youvebeenreviewed.net accidentally expired. I tried buying it back but the system said it was processing and not yet available. By the time I checked it again the domain had already been purchased.

Domains like www.youvebeenreviewed.net are essentially forwarded from a generic url to another location. It's a lot like when you forward your home telephone number to your cell phone. People can get you at either number but you have one that you prefer and that's why you forward. It doesn't take away from the old number. It's just more convenient. 

In this case my old "number" is the address for this blog. The content here was being forwarded to You've Been Reviewed because that url is easier to remember. 

The problem is that although the url was purchased by the existing owner, the content was not. What is on their prior to their purchase are of the domain only does remain mine. They would have needed to get in touch with me for that and of this date the have not done so. In some cases, they have added some of their content and made other tweaks without changing or buying the work on the site - my work. 

We aren't just talking about my written work but my photographs and other creative content as well.

I have left several messages in the comments on some of my articles over there but You've been Reviewed owners have yet to respond. I'm sure you can imagine how frustrating this is and appreciate your patience. 

Please be assured that this blog, Gayle's Glimpses is the blog you've come to trust through the years. It's been here for over a decade. Even though the name has changed a little, I'll be looking at Reviewed items and creating more content on reviews and restaurants soon.

Thank you for handing out with me. I look forward to more good times ahead. In addition to Gayle's Glimpses, you may also enjoy the www.bodaciousbroadstravelblog.com where I share great travel pieces and advice from the road. You can also follow me on Instagram and Twitter @gaylevlogs

Thanks again for journeying with me along the road of life. I think we're in for more of the great moments that you've been coming here for. I hope you're looking forward to it as much as I am! 🙂

See you on the road!

Will I fly on Spirit Airlines this summer

Believe it or not, I am thinking of flying on Spirit Airlines this summer. Spirit Airlines is an ultra low cost carrier. The nearest airport to me that the airline uses is in Nashville. It's not exactly close, but it's close enough. I'm looking to see how the airline handles passengers who have a disability. A friend is going on the same flight so we can better compare.



A friend send me the video that's linked below. It gives me a good idea of what I can expect as a regular passenger.Im linking the video here so you can get an idea as well. Let me know if you've flown with them before. I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
