When I went to buy a black XB, the manager told me that it's out of stock but they can find one the next day. They asked me to pay a deposit first so that I don't have to make an extra trip to the dealership the next day and that if they can't find the car, they will give me my deposit back.
The next day I called, they said they couldn't find any and there are none available in/around Boston, not even other dealerships. So I asked for my deposit back. He really wanted to sell me the car and asked me to wait for few more days. I refused because I found another dealer that has it in stock, contrary to what he told me. I asked for my deposit back. It took another trip to the dealership and several phone calls before I got my money back - 1 month later.

We were able to get some good deals at Firestone because of coupons, specials that they run, and previous services that we had signed up for. Several of the employees were very kind and helpful.
If you are looking to get a quick oil change, don't come here; arrive later than about 7am, and you'll need to wait hours (yes, hours) to get your oil changed. Also, they came back with a long list of things that were supposedly "wrong" with my car that I were fine or had just been serviced. They did this when I went by myself, but then I came with my husband and it was another deal. One of the employees was hitting on me when i was there alone in the morning dropping off my car. I was pleased with the job that they did, but NOT pleased with the way that they took advantage of me as a female and tried to rip us off.

The instructors are vague and unfriendly and the staff is very unprofessional. After investing a great deal of money in driving lessons at this school, I paid to take a D&D car to the road site only to find that my road test was not scheduled for some reason. While I was trying to work things out with the RMV on the phone, the instructor just drove off, leaving me stranded at the road test site without a way to get back home. I asked for a refund for my grievances but instead, the staff yelled at me. This school is poorly managed and you will undoubtedly pay more than what you will receive. Choose any other driving school in Boston; D&D is simply not worth your trouble.

Its located in chinatown. This is not the best neighborhood, but there are only a few places where you can go for these things. I figure you get what you pay for. If this is what you are looking for, then, this is the place to be. All in all, it is a good experience and I would do it again.

I needed a rental car after i was involved in a collision. The rental was covered by the woman who hit me. Both Commerce insurance company and the Autobody recommended Enterprise, so thats where i went.
Someone from Enterprise was supposed to pick me up from the autobody where i was dropping off my car, and they were supposed to call me 10 minutes before they left to pick me up. They didn't do either of these things. We called over there 20 minutes after they were supposed to get me the man working told me that he was the only one there and they weren't able to leave the office. Someone from the autobody ended up giving me a ride, so it wasn't a big deal.
I was only supposed to get a "compact car" but they only had two cars on the lot, a Ford Explorer and a small Pickup Truck. I ended up getting an automatic upgrade to the Explorer, which was very nice.
Approximately 24 hours after i rented the car, i got a phone call from Enterprise telling me that they sold the car i rented and they needed to switch it out with another car. Now this isn't the biggest deal, but it was a huge inconvenience seeing as i was at work, my car was parked at garage a few blocks from my building and i had already paid the parking fee for the day. I was also disappointed that i was going to give up the nice rental. I called Corporate Customer Service before i agreed to have the car switched out and was able to get an equally nice car after the switch.
Overall, the service was not the worst, but i would rather not deal with them again.

The Purple Shamrock is one of the worst bars in all of Boston and should be avoided by anyone with class. Here- they make you wait to get inside even if the bar is half empty to give off the illusion that this is a hip place. Inside, you will find a scene mobbed by underage beer-swillers looking to start fights and sucker punch anyone that they may cross paths with. Also inside are the skankiest of Boston scenesters. Drink prices are unreasonable and staff is oafish. Avoid unless you are desperate!

More
Even though the Bell in Hand tends to attract a mixed crowd, it is one of the best bars in Boston. In the Summer, they open the large front windows and it has an excellent ambiance. There is often a line outside and the bar is always packed on weekends, but inside there is always a nice scene and unpretentious staff. Downstairs they often have a live band playing when upstairs is DJ'd. The happy hour specials and food is very reasonable. A good overall bar
