August Daily Goodie Box

{Disclaimer: I was given a Daily Goodie Box to review but all opinions are my own}

I just got August's Daily Goodie Box and here it is in all it's goodness!

 Daily Goodie Box- It's More Than Just Free Samples!   Let's see what we've got this month.

Rejuva Minerals - Sheer Tinted Moisturizer
https://www.rejuvaminerals.com/store/tinted-moisturizer.php

I've been loving this tinted moisturizer. It feels hydrating and gives me enough coverage that I can wear it by itself on days I don't feel like wearing makeup.

Nature Nut - Shampoo
http://www.nature-nut.com/index.php?dir=site&page=catalog&op=category&cs=1

This shampoo is enriched with five types of nut oils to smooth and fortify hair fibers.

We Are Rugged Beauty - Long Lasting Nail Polish

https://www.weareruggedbeauty.com/collections/long-lasting-nail-polish-colors

I like that this nail polish is made in the USA and free of ten harsh chemicals. It's vegan and not tested on animals.  The fresh white color is perfect for summer but their website is full of other fun colors.

Wholeberry - Passion Fruit Snack Rounds  https://wholeberry.com/product/passion-fruit-2oz/                                             These dried passion fruit rounds have a pop of tropical flavor and contain both  Vitamins A & C.  They are made from the whole passion fruit and picked at the peak of ripeness.  Each round contains 18 passion fruits!

Jada Spices - Vegan Chicken Salt 
https://chickensalt.com/collections/all
This lower sodium vegan chicken salt has a hint of lime and is made with sea salt, turmeric, onion powder, garlic powder and lemon pepper.   Try it on corn on the cob, roasted veggies and potato salad.
Coco Luxe - Hydration
https://www.cocoluxelife.com/collections/hydration
I've tried Coco Luxe coconut water before and it has a smooth, pure taste. It contains no added sugar and is not made from concentrate.  Get your electrolytes here!
Rowdy Bar - Chocolate Coconut Cashew
https://rowdybars.com/products/chocolate-coconut-cashew-6-bars
This is the first I've heard of yacon root. It's a prebiotic and a natural sweetener. The bars have a short list of ingredients-they are gluten free and have 8G of protein.

 NEATsheets - 4-Count Sample Pack

https://neatsheets4eats.com/products/sample-pack

Neat sheets are for protecting your shirt and lap when you're eating. I think they'd be great as sterile place mats for traveling and at restaurants.

This was another great box!! You can sign up for own Daily Goodie Box here, no credit card is ever needed!

More Than Just Car Shopping with Cars.com

Disclaimer:This is a sponsored post with cars.com, all opinions are my own.

This collaboration with cars.com couldn't have come at a better time. We've been casually car shopping but with school starting up (less than 2 weeks!), we need to get more serious in our search.  New car shopping isn't something I usually enjoy. I like to do my research at home and then go into a dealership to check out the models that I'm interested in.  Used car shopping seems even scarier!

 When researching this blog post, I found out the cars.com can be a valuable online destination for buying, selling, servicing and repairing cars. They connect consumers with dealers across the country and in your own neighborhood. We're looking for a used car so I was happy to see this screen to help narrow down our search.

It's a nice option to be able to filter used cars available by private owner or dealerships or both. Once you've made your selection, you can then search by brand, make, model, location, etc. If you're trading in a car, you can find out what your car is worth before negotiations begin. 

Another nice feature is their review section where consumers can read up on the latest car news, browse reviews and videos and even do multi car comparisons.

The section for first time buyers sounds very useful too.

I was pleasantly surprised to find such an in depth service and repair section. Not only can you find repair shops and estimate cost of repairs, there's also a DIY auto repairs section with common services you can do yourself.    There are step by step written instructions and an accompanying video. There's also a difficulty rating given to each service; changing windshield wipers=easy and changing transmission fluid=halfway between easy and medium difficulty.  Pretty cool!Pin It

Save Money with Groupon Coupons #GrouponCoupons #ad

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post. All opinions are mine.

I have another money saving tip for you from Groupon.  They offer coupons for pretty much everything you could possibly imagine.

 It is so easy to find coupons for your area.  You go to the site Groupon Coupons and enter your location into the search box(or the location where you want to go if you're planning to be away in the near future), press the search button (little magnifying glass) and you will see thousands, yes THOUSANDS of coupons for your area.

You can then sort the coupons by what you are looking for--by store, product, activity, getaway or service.  You will probably see a lot of your favorite retailers, where you shop already.  I tried it for some of the stores I have visited lately to see what I could save on. You too can get in on the deals because there is absolutely no fee to join. Groupon Coupons are completely free to use for everyone. Some of the stores I frequent and the coupons I spotted were:

J. Crew Factory

Get 15% off your next order.

Bloomingdales

Get 10% off your next order.

Walgreens

Paperless Coupon--virtually clip coupons right onto your rewards card. No coupons to carry and you don't even have to show your phone, just use your rewards card!

That was just after one quick search.  I will definitely be checking out Groupon Coupons the next time I need to go shopping for anything. 

Have you tried Groupon Coupons yet?

Groupon Goods For The Bath #Groupon #ad

Disclaimer: This is a sponsored post.  All opinions are mine.

Do you know Groupon? I signed up for a Goupon awhile ago for their great deals on entertainment and events in my area.  It's always the first place I check when I'm looking for something fun to do.  I didn't realize that they were way more than just a  coupon source for  local events and entertainment.  They are also a wonderful source for shopping for just about anything I need.  Plus, I know they'll have great prices on what I'm looking for.  If you like getting a great deal, you'll love Groupon too.

{Bathroom Paint}

I like to do a lot of on line comparison shopping before I buy something and I can head right over to Groupon Goods to see what deals they have going on.  Recently, I have been on an organizational tear around the house and it started with our bathroom storage.    I found some neat storage solutions on the Groupon website but also plenty of other products for the bathroom from shower heads, to towels, to  shower curtains,to bathroom fixtures, even toilets!  Pretty much anything I could possibly need for updating my bath.  I love Groupon because it's free to join and saves me money with the click of a button.

What do you love to save on with Groupon?

Personalized Porcelain Faux Bois Mugs

I know we all think that our holiday shopping season is over but the new year brings new occasions for gifting our friends loved ones. Sometimes the hardest part of shopping for people is figuring out what to get them!   I love ordering from catalogues and one that I've always enjoyed perusing over the years is Uncommon Goods.  They have so many unique gift ideas and products. Their website is great for shopping in your pj's on the couch or under the covers.  I've spent many hours looking for home goods and gifts on their site.  

Do you have an anniversary coming up and are on a tight budget?  This What I Love About You by Me Book is so sweet (and only $10).   You fill in the answers to the prompts given and it becomes your one of a kind love story and treasured keepsake without breaking the bank.  It also works for a "friendaversary".  Miss High School got one like this as a birthday gift from a friend and it was one of her favorite presents.

Heart Venn Diagram Linocut Print $28

Speaking of love, Valentine's Day is really only a few weeks away.  If you're looking for a unique Valentine's gift, you will definitely find one here.

Is there a hot sauce aficionado in your life?  You could give them this Make Your Own Hot Sauce Kit $34.95 so they could make their own or whip up a personalized batch for them yourself. Spicy!!

Mixed Metal Gold Ring 

I know I'll always find truly unique jewelry gifts here.  There's definitely something for everyone in their massive jewelry collection.

The Personalized Love Birch Cuff is stylish and special.  The artist hand casts the brass band from real birch bark that she collected.  Each piece has its own interesting story about the artist who created it.

This gift literally has my name on it!  It's a Custom Morse Code Necklace and it can be customized with any word, phrase or number to become a one of a kind secret message between the gifted and the giver.  

I hope I've given you some 'gift-spiration' for the upcoming year!!

{Giveaway} Powerocks Magicstick Portable Charger Review and Giveaway

They don't call this thing Magicstick for nothing!

Powerocks contacted me to review their Magicstick mobile charger and I was excited to give it a try.

There is nothing scarier than running out of power on your phone when you are stranded and sometimes it's just plain inconvenient when you aren't able to connect to a power source on the go.

The Magicstick 2800mAHbattery means that you can get two charges out of it before it needs recharging!  It's super lightweight and portable and comes with its own little carrying pouch.

It charges standard smartphones and other digital devices like Bluetooth headsets, cameras, GPS and e-readers.  

Look at all of the fun colors it comes in.

The Magicstick is perfect for vacation but also for everyday use.

We put it to the test last week when we went to New York City for the day and used our Iphones all day, depleting most of our batteries with constant use.

 We pulled out the Magicstick on the train on our way home and we were all able to individually charge up our devices so we had enough power to use them on the trip back.

I'm a fan!

You can be a fan too!

Sorry, this giveaway is over.

Powerocks has generously offered to give one of my lucky readers a Magicstick2800mAH portable power charger too!  

Leave a comment below, letting me know how you'd use a Magicstick. Please include an email where you can be reached if you are the winner.

Giveaway ends January 10, 2014 at 5pm EST.

Good Luck!

Firmoo Eyeglasses Review

We Firmoo, do you?

What is Firmoo, you may ask?

They are a global online optical store and when they asked if I'd like to do a review of their eyeglasses, 'this one' jumped at the chance!  

She's the only eye glass wearing one currently at home.

She was all over it and had fun choosing this funky pair.

Firmoo lets you 'try them on' by uploading your photo which is a great feature.

And that sweater, is from our YHL Macklemore Thrift Shop Challenge.

The glasses arrived quickly and were made to her specifications.
She is loving them!

Firmoo is offering you a free pair of glasses too.

Check out the details here.

I was given a free pair of glasses to review but opinions are strictly my own (and hers).

{Sponsor}Big Fish Games Review & Giveaway

I wouldn't call myself much of a 'gamer' but I do enjoy a few types of computer/video games when I'm looking for that kind of recreation.   I was happy to try out one of Big Fish Games multitude of game options when given the opportunity.  A very nice thing about Big Fish is that they let you download and play with the game for an hour before you buy it to try it out!  Their prices are very reasonable and the games are easy to download plus their customer service was extremely receptive and helpful (I was having an email/account issue).

 One of my favorite kinds of games is hidden object games. These games involve spotting hidden items and solving puzzles and mysteries in lush, eye catching scenes.  There were so many to choose from but I'm a sucker for Mystery Case Files so I chose Escape from Ravenhearst.   It came with a warning that it was not for the young or faint of heart! Yikes!  

  It's like watching a movie, reading a book and playing a game all in one!

This game is definitely challenging and I was stumped more than a few times before figuring out the clues.  I'm still working on some of them.

Now the good news for YOU! 

Big Fish Games has generously offered to give away 

TWO FREE games to my readers.

If you'd like to win a FREE game for yourself just go to Big Fish Games  and leave me link in the comments section of this post to the game you would want to WIN. Also please make sure to leave me your email so I can contact you if you're the winner.

Giveaway ends Friday, July 20 @ 5pm EST.

Two winners will be chosen at random.

Good Luck!
