Service: Pismo Beach Veterinary Clinic

Growing up in a small town, it's difficult to break the cycle of "going to the same vet your parents always did" etc., etc. However lately I was beginning to feel that no matter what was needed, a trip to my previous vet meant a $300 bill every time. It was beginning to be a financial strain. When I took our Scottie with "skin issues" and possible arthritis to Dr. Joel Conn, we were given solutions with results, and even some advice for supplements that might make her less susceptible to these things in the future!

Restaurant: Yanagi Sushi & Grill

As a busy family we frequently have to rely on take-out when the day becomes a little bit too hectic. Luckily, we have Yanagi just a few blocks from home and office.

And even something for the sushi neophytes like my dad -- a Crunchy Roll, Golden California Roll or some yummy fried rice or light and crispy Tempura ... more »

Testimonial: Bruce & Kathy Divelbiss

Retail: Mail Plus

Typically a mail box rental, notary and shipping business doesn't really call to mind "fun", but somehow the always-smiling Mrs. Teri Bayus and her staff make a necessary stop seem like a social visit. We regularly use Mail Plus for our business mail-outs, returns and so forth. But where her and her staff really shine is when advising you which last-minute shipping option will be the most cost-effective while also getting the parcel to the right place on time. And since I am almost running in the door with my parcels the day AFTER they should have been shipped, boxed in the wrong package and with a partial address, her staff has to be credited with an endless amount of patience ... more »
