Super affordable prescription glasses

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Zenni Optical for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. If you or someone in your family requires prescription eyeglasses and you're still triyng to save money by getting them in your brick and mortar eyeglass store, you're likely wasting a LOT of money. I've been wearing glasses since I was 11 and from 11-16 I went through several pairs of glasses due to immaturity or irresponsibility. I had two pairs (a few years apart from each other) Read more [...]

Smoobee Magic No Cry Brush Review

Both of my Daughters have fine hair that tangles easily. Getting them to brush their hair each morning is a battle; I urge them to brush it themselves before I do, thinking this will reduce the knots and tears but, it doesn’t. It is a constant battle with them whining and me threating to cut it short. I wondered if there was a brush on the market that would not only help with the knots but would also be fun for the girls to use. I was really excited when I stumbled upon the Smoobee Magic No Read more [...]

Gumball Machine Review and Giveaway (6/23)

By Betty

June 7th, 2012
When I was a kid I always wanted a gumball machine. I remember going to the local drug store with my grandparents when I was a little girl. And when I was good, my Grandpa would give me a nickel to put in it and give myself a treat. I could not imagine ever having one inside my home; so when Gumball.com offered to send me a Carousel Junior Gumball Machine Gift Pack I was excited. The gumball machine was heavy and sturdy and came with 2 bags of gumballs that tasted really good. It has a glass bulb Read more [...]

Lego Summer Brickation Coming to Traverse City & Giveaway (6/21)

I had a friend as a child who had a little brother. They had a finished basement and it was essentially lego-land down there. While I wasn't a huge lego enthusiast myself, I remember thinking that they must feel so special to share such a neat interest with their dad who was really good at making most anything out of legos. Even for non-lego enthusiasts its really awesome to see life size lego models because it's incredible how much time and effort goes into them and how neat they look. This summer Read more [...]
