or $5000 package deal, including a standard CPAP BRICK.

Best DEAL - Rent for only $410.00 a month for 13 months, and we will convert it to full ownership for only $899.00.

By the way, it may be cheating, but I stopped and started my PRS1 Pro when I was going to go on my back. thought if the numbers were bad, I would echo off the session. turns out all that prevention was unnecessary as I scored well for once.

I cannot bloody believe it. Now 2 days in a row CA 0.0 RERA 0.0! What!!!??? Nasal spray for the last 4 days. I have no idea if that was it, or if it was that cute little alien pixie with the magic do-well wand!
