~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


First, I wanna tell you that the shipping speed of eBags is AWESOME! These packing cubes arrived in a matter of hours from the time I ordered them. I ordered them one day and had them the very next day! Talk about Fast!!! These packing cubes are great to use for an over night trip or an extended stay at Grandmas house! I love this set of packing cubes. There is a size that is great for everything you may need when you are away from home! We travel a few times a year on our "Get away from it all" vacations. Those vacations are when we just decide we need a break from home and run away for a few days, usually on a long weekend or when every one just needs to unwind from school. These packing cubes were great for our last vacation! It has always been a struggle for me to pack. The hardest part about packing has been packing for my kiddos. They think that 1 outfit, swimsuit, pair of socks and a pair of undies will work for a week..:( This set of packing cubes has been a huge help. I used one cube for undies and socks and it keeps them all in placed wonderfully. I used another cube to hold their outfits and Pj's. The last cube was for my stuff:) I placed the outfits in the bags and zip them up and everything stayed in place from one destination to the next. Usually everything gets shuffled around and crinkled during the trip in the luggage. I don't have to worry about that. Everything is right where I put it. I love the colors and that they are vented to allow air to get into the bags.The packing cubes are lightweight and have easy to carry handles. When you are not using them they lay flat and are easy to store out of the way till you need them again! They weigh 12oz and are made of TechLite Diamond Nylon and have a Lifetime Warranty.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
eBags has many other sizes and shapes of their cubes! Check out eBags at their website HERE.
The cubes that I received for my review are on sale at this time for ONLY $20.99. Run on over to eBags and pick you up a set for your next vacation.
They come on many great colors!

Review ~Redbox now rents Video GAMES!!

Hi ya'll!
As a member of Smiley360 I get the chance to
review many great items!
This time around, I got the chance to review a Wii video game
 from Smiley360 called Go Vacation. As part of the mission I threw a small gaming get-together with a handful family and friends to explain/show to them how easy and fun it is to rent video games from Red box!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Renting more than 1.5 billion discs to date, Redbox is America's destination for movies and video games. With more than 28,000 locations nationwide, Redbox is the fun, fast, easy way to rent the latest new release movies on DVD or Blu-ray Disc® and the top new releases of family video games. Featuring up to 200 titles and 630 discs, Redbox is a fully automated video rental store contained in 12-square feet of retail space. With more than 68 percent of the U.S. population living within a five-minute drive of a Redbox kiosk, Redbox is where America rents movies and games.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Redbox is so fun, fast and easy to use. My family and friends had a great time enjoying the games we rented from RedBox.
I like that I can reserve the video game the kiddos really wanna try or movie that I wanna see on their website and then swing by the red box and pick it up when its convenient to me.
Each rental is $1 per day and rentals have to be
returned by 9PM to avoid another day charge.
Renting a movie or video game is as simple as
touching the kiosk screen, adding the item to your cart,
swiping your card, verifying your email address and
collecting your movie or game.
Returning them is even easier! Touch the "return" button on
 the touch screen of the kiosk and slipping your video
or movie in the return slot!
 Find a Redbox kiosk near you . When you find a kiosk near you, you can also see the available movie and video games at that kiosk before you even get there.
Redbox carries the most popular Wii, Xbox360
and PS3 games!



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
disclosure~ I received a Wii game to keep and 5 video game codes to be used at RedBox in exchange for my review of RedBox. No other compensation was given and reviews are my own.

Have you tried the TASKS at SWAGBUCKS?


Hi Gang!
Tasks are an EASY way to earn Swagbucks and EARN some Awesome rewards at Swagbucks!


Here's a bit more about Tasks:


"Tasks are an opportunity to do specific actions (called "jobs") and earn Swagbucks based on performance, accuracy and time spent. You can even bank the Swag Bucks you earn from a task if you have to stop in the middle and come back later. Once your task meter is filled up, cash out and watch your Swag Buck total increase!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jobs are now structured differently. You will earn credit for every assignment that you complete rather than for every 10 assignments CrowdFlower has implemented several important changes based on your feedback:


Earnings — You can earn payouts in smaller, more exact increments than before. This eliminates long work periods with no earnings payout, and it means you get paid for each task you do. Tasks typically take less than 5 minutes to complete.


Savings — You have a "piggy bank" that will persistently store your earnings. You can stop working or change jobs whenever you want without losing what you earned!


Visibility — You can track your earnings progress and your running accuracy score.


Bonuses — You are now eligible for bonus payouts! Doing good work on certain jobs will lead to bonus payouts.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You can check out the TASKS at Swagbucks HERE

If you have not signed up at Swagbucks you are missing out on some GREAT prizes! My favorite prize is the $5 Amazon gift card for just 450 swagbucks!

ARM & HAMMER™ Simply Saline™ Neti Pot Kit ~ Review


As a member of Smiley360 I get the chance often to try new products! When I was asked if I wanted to review the Arm and Hammer Simply Saline™ Neti Pot Kit I jumped on it quick! With this time of year everyone in the house has some sort of nose problem.  The Arm and Hammer Simply Saline Neti Pot naturally eases nasal dryness and helps clear congestion associated with colds and allergies. The saline solution is made with real Arm and Hammer™ Baking Soda to help prevent stinging and burning. Simply Saline’s pot has a patent pending, leak-proof design to help avoid messy spills.

•Flushes dust and irritants from nasal passages

Its very easy to use~
1. clean the pot prior to the first use. Fill the Neti pot with warm water to the fill line. That's about 8 oz of water. DO NOT use Hot or boiling water.
2. empty 1 simply saline packet into the neti pot.
tighten the cap and gently shake
3. lean forward over a sink with your head tilted to one side. Open your mouth and apply tip of the neti pot snugly against your nostril.
Allow the solution to gently flow until it starts draining from the opposite nasal passage. Avoid swallowing the solution.

Purex Triple Action Laundry Detergent~ Review

As a member of Purex Insiders I get to try and review new products from Purex from time to time! This time I was sent a FULL size bottle of the New Purex Triple Action Laundry Detergent Free and Clear to try and review!

Purex is rolling out a NEW Triple Action formula across the entire liquid detergent line. This new and improved triple action formula  delivers even better on Purex's promise to leave your clothes bright, white, and clean, and as always, for half the price of leading brands.

Over the past year scientists have been working hard to create an even better Purex formula. Not just a better formula but one that will continue to deliver the value that Purex stands for. The new Triple action formula is just that! Its an even better clean, for half the price of leading brands.

Beginning in early 2012 you can get your own sample to try the New Triple Action Purex. www.freesamplepurex.com


I love it when I receive full size bottle to review and not those little samples packages that most companies send you that wont even wash a load of clothes! The bottle I received was a full 50 Fl. Oz. of the Free and Clear formula. It is good for 33 loads of laundry!

As soon as the FedEx man dropped it off I knew what is was, I ripped open the box and ran straight to the laundry room! I had load of towels waiting in the washer for the new detergent and I was ready to try it out! I like using towels to test new detergents because if a detergent can clean your towels then its a great detergent!
My towels came out nice and clean. I liked that the towels smelled clean and didn't have the lingering smell of the detergent! note~ I also washed them with snuggle so they were good and soft! You know they are good and clean when the kiddos comment on how clean they are. All 3 of my gang commented that they liked the clean fresh not overpowering smell of their towels!

I like that the New Purex Triple Action is great for all machines including He machines.
The Free and Clear formula is Hypoallergenic for sensitive skin. It has been tested by dermatologists and is 100% free of perfumes and dyes!
I give the new formula a 5 out of 5!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Disclosure~Purex provided a free sample of their Triple Action laundry detergent so I could write a review. However, all of the opinions expressed here in this post are my own.

Renuzit® Fresh Accents Review


As a part of Purex Insiders I was given the chance to sample 2 new scents from Renuzit, the kit also included coupons to share with my family and friends! The scents were Festive Snow and Winter Berry! The Winter Berry smells wonderful! When company came over and mentioned the wonderful cherry smell I gave them a coupon so that they can get one to. I like that the scents have nice holders that fit in with the decor of my home and don't look like the usual air fresheners. I put the cherry one in my living room and the snow scent in the kiddos bathroom. The best part is the fresheners retail for around $2.50 at any store!








Renuzit brand provided free samples of Fresh Accents air freshener so I could review them. However, all of the opinions expressed here are my own.

Natural House Probiotic Cleaning Products Review and Giveaway!(ENDED)


UPDATE~ CONGRATS TO
JESSICA FROM FL
SHE WON A 30 DAY SUPPLY OF NATURAL HOUSE CLEANING PRODUCTS!
Sponsored by Tomoson.com

Natural House cleaning products are a true cleaning revolution!
Why is it a "revolution?" Because Natural House probiotic cleaning products brings you a revolutionary, new method of cleaning the most dirty areas of your home. Utilizing non-toxic, probiotic cleaning agents, Natural House products are strong enough for commercial clean-up, yet safe and gentle for all of the members of your Natural House.
•Our products use an eco-friendly cleaning method of probiotics that create a beneficial, odor eating ecosystem to naturally drive out and digest odors at their source.
•Natural House's plant-based ingredients are eco-friendly, non-toxic and biodegradable to naturally fight the toughest problems you face in your house.
•Our products, Sinky and Flushy even break down and digest fats, oil, grease, and solid waste to ensure your disposal, pipes, drain lines or septic tank run smoothly.
•Our cleaners contain good probiotics which continue to scour, clean, consume odors, grime, grease, and germs, and they continue to do so until your next weekly treatment!
•We earned the coveted Retailers’ Choice Award” at the 2011 National Hardware Show!

So how exactly does probiotic household cleaners work?
•The surfaces in your house are like a garden. If you don’t seed with good plants, weeds will grow. You have the same choice with your household surfaces: sanitize for a moment with harsh chemicals leaving your surface open to recontamination or seed with probiotics to continuously weed out the bad micro-organisms.
•Traditional cleaners “clean” a surface for a moment in time; the second the rag is finished wiping the surface, that surface is almost instantly polluted once again with ambient dust, dirt, and micro-organisms.
•Natural House probiotics creates mini-ecosystem on a microbial level that produces enzymes which break down odors, dirt, fats, oil, grease, food scraps, waste and toilet paper products on a continuous basis between applications. This creates a natural, clean, balanced environment that is safe for even the most sensitive members of your natural house.
•The action is in the foam! When using your Natural House products be sure and let it foam first to release the cleaning agents before going to the next step on the package directions.
The short and skinny of it is this... our natural probiotic cleaners keep on cleaning long after you've stopped!

I received 2 samples of the Mayesa Healthy Chocolate drink, Cacao Original and Cacao Mint. Organic, chocolate immunity boosting? I’ll eat it. In the case of Mayesa, I’ll drink it. Mayesa, pronounced “my-es-ah,” is a new drink made with organic cacao, hemp protein, and a variety of spices. The Cacao Original was Delicious. It has a much stronger coco taste than other chocolate drinks that you may be used to but I actually preferred it.  I didn't care for the mint. I like that you can drink it hot or chilled. Mayesa is just less than 200 calories per serving, a lovely afternoon pick-me-up or snack. More importantly, Mayesa is, as the company claims, an “indulgent” treat, and the taste supports that claim.

You can purchase them online at the Mayesa store HERE for $36 plus shipping for a case of 18.
Mayesa is available in stores in California, Arizona, Texas and Massachusetts!

Pyrex and Pam work wonderful together! This mission was the best I have got to try! The Pam was wonderful and my dinners don't stick to the bottom of the Pyrex pan! I have since made enchiladas, lasagna and meat loaf in my Pyrex pan. The spatula allowed everything to come out and serve all the kiddos evenly.

I have to admit this one was of the best smelling mission I have had the privilege to try! I washed our sheets and blankets more than a week ago and they still smell wonderful and fresh. White Lilac & Spring Flowers™ reminds me of spring time. Its refreshing and light. My towels were light and snuggly and great to touch! I give this product a 5 out of 5. It preforms well and the smell lingers:) Even the kiddos liked the smell and commented about how well their blankets felt and smelled.

Review~I ordered a 30 piece customized jigsaw puzzle made of cardboard, rectangular shape of my daughter in her JROTC uniform!
 
She loved it!

She hurried up and opened it and put it together:)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
She first separated the edges from the center pieces
It didn't take her long at all to admire herself as a puzzle!
I like that the puzzle is a picture of a memory that will last a lifetime. The puzzle is made of thick quality cardboard that will last years to come. The pieces fit well together and the 30 piece puzzle was fun to put together! I think these are great gifts for anyone! These would make wonderful Christmas presents!

The Great UGLee Pen! Review and Giveaway~ended



Product Description



The UGLee Pen is a revolutionary ergonomic pen that is designed, created and used by a real physician. This Doctor-inspired grip pen is redefining the way people view pens and writing.
The UGLee Pen is good for everyone who writes (even just a grocery list), and is especially helpful to people who experience pain and discomfort when writing, for example those with arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, etc.,. It's also the best writing utensil for children who are learning to write and are developing fine motor skills, as well as helpful for special-needs children who find holding a pen or pencil properly difficult. And for high-school and college students who have to take copious notes, this pen helps keep hands and fingers from cramping.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I received a pack of 3 UGLee Pens~ I luv these pens they are so comfortable to write with and easy to hold. These pens fell so great that I have lost 2 already to the kiddos! You knwo if the kids like them then they are great pens! When the ink runs out you can purchase ink refills in packs of 10 for $15.
