This month’s featured business is Sid Nield, my State Farm Insurance agent.

Sid has been my insurance agent for the past nine years and has helped me resolve some pretty bizarre claims when my kids were younger, (like the time my daughter’s Honda was nearly destroyed by a U of I fraternity’s exploding ceremonial cannon!).

Sid’s extensive experience helps him provide valuable insights into the complex world of insurance.

Sid is honest, reliable, and responsive.

Give him a call at 938-5351 for exceptional insurance service.

This month’s featured business is Butch Petersen,  a (gasp!) used car salesman!

I just bought this beautiful, like-new 2007 Acura MDX with 16,000 miles from Butch last week.

Fairly Reliable Bob’s has been in business 34 years and Butch acts as your trusted advisor; not a pushy salesperson who’s out to “close the deal”.

This was my second purchase from Butch and I highly recommend him!

Give Butch a call at 724-4106 when you’re in the market for a clean, late model used car!

This month’s featured business is my own personal Master Gardener, Becky Zottarelli.

Becky specializes in creating potted plant masterpieces and will also plant your perennials and annuals.

In other words, Becky can help you get potted !

Becky is honest, competent, and has an excellent eye for what will look good in your yard.

Becky will turn your yard into a sea of color!

Becky is offering “Phriends Of Phil” a FREE consultation and 20% off her services during May !

Give her a call at 871-0960 !

This month’s featured business is my favorite carpet cleaner, Charlie Lyman (aka “Carpet Geek”).

I have personally used Charlie as my carpet cleaner for several years and he has proven to be punctual, thorough, competent, and honest.

The kewl thing about Charlie is that instead of charging by the room (as most carpet cleaners do), he only charges for the actual area he cleans.  That saves you money if you are cleaning a furnished home.

Charlie also does carpet repairs, upholstery cleaning, and grout cleaning services.

Charlie is offering my referred clients 20% off for all of his services during April, so give him a call at 559-5426!

This month’s featured business is my own handyman, Ken Weathers, whom I have labeled as “The World’s Best Handyman”.

Ken has been my “go to guy” for years and has done some pretty amazing work for me.

He returns calls, shows up, does good work, and charges a reasonable fee.

Ken can be reached at (208)870-5332.

This month’s featured business is my own personal dentist, Dr. Michael Shipp.

Dr. Shipp recently took over Richard Galloway’s practice and renamed it Bristol Heights Dental.

He’s located at 6085 N. Eagle Road, just South of the Eagle Road/Chinden intersection.

Mention my “Phriends Of Phil” special offer when you call Dr. Shipp at (208)938-9912 and get a free cleaning (a $78 value) when combined with patient exam/x-rays.
