David and I have pretty well NEVER had cable or satellite for TV except for a couple of brief times in the last 9 years! This stretch that we are on right now has exceeded what I had thought we would keep it for because it was cheaper for us to bundle everything while I had no cell phone, and just use our home phone. Since football season is over and we both have phones again we will most def. be cutting the cord again. We are big fans of seasons of tv on DVD, streaming on a few different sites and we love the savings too! I honestly think that we were married for 3 years or more before we ever had satellite and I hated it! I finally had it out with them when they took our payment out 3 times in a row and only wanted to give me a bill credit- when I had other bills due! When I got a chance to review for Playster, I was pretty excited, because I am always excited about streaming services and sites, and I love to check them out and have different options in case I can't find … [Read more...]
Review: Schoola #ad #sponsored #review #schoolastyle
This Post Also includes Affiliate links- if you sign up on the Schoola Website you will receive $20 in credit,and I will as well! A few months ago I told you all about a site that I had found called Schoola-it wasn't even a sponsored post I had just found the site via some blogging friends and thought it was awesome! Schoola is this awesome site where you can get awesome children and womens clothes and accessories for awesome prices!I also like that everything is pretty well a brand, even though it might cost just a tiny bit more than what I would normally pay for something second hand- but i'll get into the particulars here in just a sec! I personally do not mind gently used clothing and I actually have pretty well always worn things from yardsales, thrift shops and consignment stores- and sometimes random clothes that were given to my mom or grandma from people that we know, so when I found out about Schoola, I was like great, another option for me! Another thing I really … [Read more...]
Review: Blender Boyz Smoothie & Cappuccino Mixes #ad #sponsored #review #blenderboyz
Most of you know ever since I got my Nutri Ninja I have been making smoothies right, left , sideways and upside down - but so far basically the same smoothie because I tend to find one thing that works and stick with it! I do plan evolve especially with it being spring and with all the seasonal fruits and whatnot- plus I have every intention of making some slushies and such too! So when I had the chance to review for Blender Boyz I was pretty interested. Not only do they have smoothie mixes where all you have to do is add the milk and ice- they also have cappuccino mixes- and I didn't get any of the ones for mixed drinks (but perhaps in the future!) they have those as well. I was really happy to give them a try! I was excited not only for the various flavors -3 in each line, but the ease of use as well! I like that I don't have to have fresh fruit (or frozen) for the Smoothies and I also liked that I don't have to have a ton of ingredients for the iced coffees as well! I … [Read more...]
Review: Petsmile Pet Toothpaste #ad #sponsored #review #petsmile
In case you didn't know by now- I have 2 fur babies with various personalities- they are polar opposites actually! Sam is my orange cat which we refer to as evil in a orange fur coat, and Marley is my angel, princess baby (she actually had an id tag at one point that had that written on it!) I love them to pieces and even though they are so opposite they do have one thing in common- they both have stinky breath! Now, Sam he doesn't eat any people food and he isn't going to let you brush his teeth- heck he isn't even really into letting ME hold him- and we are pretty sure i'm the only one he really likes lol. Marley on the other hand I think if we really tried she would let us brush her teeth- though we never really tried we have tried several things to help with her breath- bones, various treats, etc but nothing really has seemed to help. When I got a chance to review Petsmile I was pretty excited because it is always kind of funny that marley is such a cutie, and we give her … [Read more...]
Review: Riceworks Gourmet Rice Snacks #ad #sponsored #review #riceworks
You have probably noticed by now , if you have been reading the blog for any length of time that I am trying to get more healthy options for food around the house , especially since we have had a few incidents of David having really high blood pressure and being taken to urgent care (and even to the ER back in 2012) We don't really know what the issue is, they just keep telling him to eat better and to exercise! I like to say the bad food likely isn't what he gets at home but from eating lunch out at fast food places :( and the fact that he isn't active (neither am I ) but that is just something we are going to have to make a point to work on because I don't want anymore scares. In the past I have tried several alternatives to chips , though lets face it there isn't anything that really is going to replace that potato goodness! One such alternative that has crossed my path is one that I really enjoy so when I asked them if they would like to provide some of their product in … [Read more...]
Review: Twisted Shotz Washington Apple #ad #sponsored #review #twistedshotz #GetTwisted #WashingtonApple #HowDoYouLikeThemApples @TwistedShotz
this is a review of an alcoholic beverage. please keep in mind that you need to be of legal drinking age in your country to enjoy these sorts of beverages! You may have caught a review I wrote in my Holiday Gift Guide back a couple of months ago for Twisted Shotz (and if you didn't and you want to you can check it out here: Twisted Shotz Holiday Gift Guide Review They have so many awesome flavors already, but they are coming out with even more! I was really excited when they asked me to review their latest addition: Twisted Shotz Washington Apple ! Not only do I of course love twisted shotz, but apple flavor is flavor that I regularly like as well- I think it is because it reminds me of fall! Not that you can't have apple flavored goodies year round.. I guess I am trying to say that no matter what time of the year I like apple flavors because they do remind me of the Fall - because of apple cider and all of that good stuff. Phew. Hopefully that makes since to everyone … [Read more...]
