For quite a while I had really long hair. If I used a towel to dry my hair, it was so wet that I wouldn't want to use the same towel on my body. I recently cut my hair really short, but I have very thick hair so it still leaves a towel really wet. The turbie band is from the turbie twist brand and it's a microfiber band with lots of elastic that goes around the head. For people like me with really short hair, it basically covers all of my hair except for the very top of my head, as it's rectangular Read more [...]

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of MatchBook for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. Wow, if you've been to college or sent a child off to college it probably only took a few days to take the first trip to the bookstore and realize how much books were going to cost. I'd guess that aproximately half of the textbooks i've needed for classes have cost 100.00 or more at the bookstore. When you need five or six books per semester, the cost can get out of hand really quickly. Read more [...]

Sponsored by Tomoson.com I've been couponing for about eight or nine months now. I have taken some online coupon classes and chatted with couponista's. Most people have told me that binders are the best system. I don't care to lug a 3 ring binder around in my cart, and I don't feel that it's neccessary to clip out every coupon from every insert, to take with me from the store. Truthfully, I, like most people I would assume, use less than 1/4 of the coupons in any given insert. So why spend all Read more [...]

I've worn eyeglasses since age 11, so I thought that I was probably as knowledgeable about vision care needs as the next person. However, I learned a few things while checking out the Zeiss educational tools website. For example, I had no idea that ALL children should get an eye exam at age 6 months, 3 years and again right before starting school. Most people I know don't take their kids to an eye doctor at all unless they suspect some vision problems or their school age child has a vision test Read more [...]

You might recall my rock bottom t shirts review from july. I discussed how rock bottom t shirts offers clothing at truly rock bottom prices - prices that are so low that they are as cheap as clearance clothing at mass merchandisers stores. I know lots of moms who buy winter clothing for their kids in the spring, when they are on clearance. Of course, this means that they have to guess how many sizes their child will grow before next winter, which sometimes works and sometimes not. Rock bottom t shirts Read more [...]
