Track Your Exercise with Tractivity! 3 Win a Tractivity Bundle!

I was given the chance to test out how Tractivity  works.  I very much enjoy taking walks and then knowing how much that I’ve actually walked! There are pedometers out there, but I haven’t had my luck on them actually tracking the information of your steps or miles accurately. I’ve seen a bunch that you put on and all you have to do is shake the device a little bit and it marks every shake as a step, which doesn’t help because you can move with taking a step and it assumes that you are. When trying to lose weight and setting goals, it would make you think that you’re doing all this extra work that you’re body wasn’t actually getting! When thoroughly tracking your activities- The Tractivity Bundle makes your life so much easier! You can then track your acitivity/miles daily, weekly, and monthly to see your progress!! With their Tractivity Bundle, you get a sensor, an ankle band, a lace holder, a USB stick and a year’s membership to the site. If your trying to lose weight and want to keep track on your walking—this is PERFECT for you. Just put the sensor in the ankle band or in the lace holder (and on your shoe) and just start walking! When you’re ready to check how you’ve done, put the USB stick in to upload the data from the sensor to your account on Tractivity- EASY!

If you’d like more information on Tractivity, go to their site and they can better help you!

You can also find them on Facebook and Twitter!

They were generous enough to allow 3 lucky readers to win each a Tractivity Bundle!

Fogless Shower Mirror with Squeegee by ToiletTree Products

You don’t know how useful a fogless mirror is until you’ve tried one! First off, I had the honor of trying out the Fogless Shower Mirror with Squeegee. At first I was unsure how it easy it would be to apply in my shower, but it really wasn’t that bad! I was delayed on trying it because I thought it was going to be more complicated, but it was really rather easy! My husband at first thought it was stupid and thought that it was more in the way than anything. The reason being that he can’t see really much at all without his glasses, but once he tried it, he’s been using it every day since! It used to be when he shaved (after showering) that he’d HAVE to use aftershave because if he didn’t, his skin would be irritated by the shaving. Since he’s been shaving in the shower, I think because of the extra moisture for shaving in the shower, he no longer needs aftershave and skin doesn’t get any irritation! He’s more willing to shave in general because it doesn’t hurt anymore! So, needless to say, I’m super excited about that!   You also wouldn’t believe how useful it can be for a woman in the shower, washing your face has become easier and faster! No missing spots and if you get soap in your eyes or anything you can remove it all. It’d drive me nuts having to wipe my face off a bunch of times trying to guess where the soap was coming from. This simple product has become of GREAT use for our house! Oh yes and it stays fogless as long as you put warm water in the back of it each time you shower. It’s not that hard, it slides right off it’s base to put water in. This isn’t a problem, but wanted to state so people were aware that it’s not fogless ALL on its own with ZERO help.

Celebrate the Men in Your Life with Darcee's Hope!

For starters, I already enjoyed Darcee’s Hope and the products that she offers! I loved her alone because she was real, nice, friendly, and she was warm. Sometimes you email a company regardless of the reason and you get a business man/woman. To me, you want someone’s mother, sister, FRIEND to talk to. Someone who is going to understand your needs whether you’re making a complaint and compliment. Anyway, I do NOT have any complaints to Darcee’s Hope!

I received a shirt from her Lucky Love Club! The idea of them is that good men are hard to find, and I KNOW you ladies can all agree! We’ve been through crappy relationships, but that isn’t to say that they’re all bad! We just have to go through the bad to find the good so we celebrate them! That’s the idea of the T-shirts, I got the one that says “He Loves, He Works, He Earns <3” I through that this shirt would be PERFECT to honor him as well for Father’s Day! My husband is a pain in my rear, but I love him and he’s good to me! He works hard to provide for his family and tries to not only give us what we need, but what we want too! Last weekend, he spoiled our daughter by getting her a $30 STUFFED ANIMAL because she really liked it. She’s 4 and really hard to say “No” to sometimes. The idea is that he’d do anything for his “girls” to make them happy! I love these shirts that Darcee’s Hope offers! She also has other ones “He Loves, He Sorts, He Folds”,  “He Loves, He Grills, He Sautes’”, “He Loves, He Wipes, He Powders”, “He Loves, He Dusts,  He Cleans.” If you can find a man to do chores- you’re already golden!

“Like” her on Facebook, I don’t believe you’ll regret it!! You can also find Darcee’s Hope on Twitter!

BetterThanPants.com is Better Than Pants!

I just absolutely love shirts with different creative things on them like saying, cool looking pictures, etc. I like the funny and attitude ones the best! I had the privilege of trying out 2 shirts from BetterThanPants.com! I got to pick what 2 shirts that I was interested in trying, already I’m loving what I’m seeing so far and very anxious to try them! I have now worn the t-shirts that I have gotten from them a few times! They’re still great and holding up looking good! They didn’t shrink and I was very pleased with that or “peel” its image look- I hate that! Well, after trying BetterThanPants.com t-shirts, I have to say, I love them better than pants!!

For starters, I’m the one that goes around and tries to take pictures of everyone and everything so I can play around with my camera too! I’m always learning something new on that thing! Anywayyy, so I’m pretty sure that people get annoyed at some point because I always have a camera in my hand ready to take someone’s picture and not everyone is so enthused about it! When I found the “I Shoot People” T-shirt, I was very excited and thrilled! I thought it was the perfect T-shirt for me! It was funny, creative, and oh SO true! It was a must have, as I think any photographer would think so too or even anyone who loves to take pictures!

The next shirt that I found on there that I just had to have was a pregnancy shirt. I’m not currently pregnant,  but trying for our 2^nd and I remember how well the pregnancy hormones went the first time around! I was such a delight! Hahahaha! I think I scared my husband, but apparently I didn’t scare him enough since we both want more in our family! So, when I seen the “Due to the Influence! Maternity Shirt” I just could not pass it up! It’s just too funny and too cute! It’s just like a disclosure statement for anyone and everyone around you so they will have been warned!

A quick note about BetterThanPants.com even outside all of their awesome T-shirts, they were very quick to respond to me AND get the T-shirts to me! I would rate their customer service as EXCELLENT!  I highly recommend to “Like” them on Facebook! You can also Follow them on Twitter and Pinterest!

[REVIEW & GIVEAWAY] Radiance Collection "Waterfall" by Village Candle

Village Candle carries a lot of wonderful candles! I had the honor of experiencing “Waterfall” in the Radiance Collection! The Radiance Collection contains a crackling wooden wick. The wrap around the jar was also beautiful which is made with Lumiglow technology that brings the artwork on the jar to life, bringing all of your senses to life as well! The Radiance Collection candles come in 8 oz., 13 oz. and 21 oz. jars.  I loved the scent that I picked out, it filled most of our 2 story house within minutes! The fragrance wasn’t too strong or not strong enough- it was just perfect! I really loved the crackling wooden wick. I had never experienced a wooden wick before so I had no idea on what to expect. I was a little afraid that once it burned once, then I’d have problems trying to light it again because the wood would be gone. That was not the case in the slightest! The candle is slow burning so you don’t go through your candle quickly, but it smells wonderful and with just one candle you can fill your home with a wonderful smell!

[REVIEW] Karma Wellness Water

I enjoy how Karma Wellness Water distributes its flavor into the water. It allows you to do it by pushing in the top of the lid releasing the flavor of your drink! I received the flavors of Pineapple Coconut, Orange Mango, Raspberry Guava Jackfruit, Passionfruit Green Tea, and Acai Pomberry. For starters, I tried the Passionfruit Green Tea first, but it was a little more tart than I was expecting or hoping for. I then, tried the Raspberry Guava Jackfruit- I got the same taste of too tart for me. So, I decided to empty out a little of the water- about an inch lower than they put in the container. I then, mixed the drinks from then on like that and it was then PERFECT! So, I believe that either they put too much water or not enough flavor FOR the amount of water that they put in. I loved the Pineapple Coconut and Orange Mango! I LOVE mangos, so I was VERY excited to try this flavor!! I don’t like coconut, but the Pineapple Coconut still tasted great! Karma Wellness Water has a belief that if you do something good for others or yourself (such as drink healthy) then you’ll get a positive outcome and in this case, you’re getting good tasting water and being healthy! Feel good about what you drink! Each flavor is supposed to increase the positive effects of Mind, Body, Spirit, Balance, and Vitality! Karma Wellness Water also separates the flavor that contains vitamins from the water because they believe that premixed drinks lose their potency of the vitamins and the full effects that they’re trying to deliver to consumers! They have a video that you can see a little more about how they work so you can view it for your pleasure.

[REVIEW] Ozeri Digital Blood Pressure Monitor with Arm Cuff

Ozeri offers a lot of awesome products. I had the opportunity to try their Digital Blood Pressure Monitor with arm cuff.  First off, I believe that this is something very useful to have in your home because  it is always nice to know if your blood pressure is healthy! I’ve checked mine a few times and mine is well into the healthy range. I need to be checking my husband’s more to keep an eye on it because the one time we tried it on him, it said that he was prehypertension but I can’t remember when he took it as far as if he recently ate or not. Apparently, that’s something that can affect the outcome. You’re not supposed to check your blood pressure within an hour of eating. So maybe keep that in mind for yourself because maybe I’m not the only one that didn’t know that tidbit of information. There are a few people, at least in my family that could have use in this product!

Ozeri’s Digital Blood Pressure Monitor was very easy to use. It has the base that has the information on it, etc. It also comes with an arm cuff that has a picture of how to place it on your arm correctly.  To help you determine whether or not you’re normal, prehypertension, and hypertension- it has an automatic color-coded indicator. I love the other features like there’s a detection for an irregular heartbeat! The digital Blood Pressure Monitor also stores 80 readings which for each one has a date and time stamp. All this monitor needs is 4 AA batteries and you can find out if you have normal blood pressure. Having normal blood pressure is important for starters, if its consistently not, you would need to take blood pressure medication which you can get off of but if it was as easy as that, you would think that people would change their health habits to not be on it to begin with. Having high pressure  puts you at risk for heart disease and stroke! Also having high blood pressure can mostly be prevented.

I’m copying these facts that I seen on the CDC’s Blood Pressure website:

• 67 million American adults (31%) have high blood pressure—that’s 1 in every 3 American adults.
• 69% of people who have a first heart attack, 77% of people who have a first stroke, and 74% of people with chronic heart failure have high blood pressure.³ High blood pressure is also a major risk factor for kidney disease.
• More than 348,000 American deaths in 2009 included high blood pressure as a primary or contributing cause.
• High blood pressure costs the nation $47.5 billion annually in direct medical expenses and$3.5 billion each year in lost productivity.
• About half (47%) of people with high blood pressure have their condition under control.
• Almost 30% of American adults have prehypertension—blood pressure numbers that are higher than normal, but not yet in the high blood pressure range.³ Prehypertension raises your risk of developing high blood pressure.
• Reducing average population sodium intake from 3,300 mg to 2,300 mg per day may reduce cases of high blood pressure by 11 million and save 18 billion health care dollars annually.

You can look at Ozeri’s website to find out more information about their products! You can purchase their products on Amazon, Sears, like I said, they have a lot of products to offer people! You can also find them on Facebook.

[REVIEW & GIVEAWAY] Inbru Coffee Flavors

Inbru is a new company to me, I hadn’t heard of them or their products up until I stumbled onto their site and wanted to try their products! Inbru is a coffee flavoring made from American Rice Hulls with aromatics and essential oils. When opening it, it looks kind of similar to sawdust. You just put a scoop in with your coffee grounds before being brewed and then brew it together for flavored coffee! I wanted to try Raspberry Truffle and Butterscotch Drop as I wanted to try something that I don’t see in normal flavors or that I could get in a creamer! I put in an extra scoop of the Inbru flavors so that the flavor was strong enough. Not knowing how strong it was to begin with, I wanted to be sure that it was good and flavorful! The Raspberry Truffle was excellent and light in the flavor but strong enough to taste! It also had a wonderful aroma but even tasting it. That’s the only thing better than something that tastes good- is smelling how good it is going to taste before doing so! The Butterscotch Drop didn’t have as strong of a smell, but it sure did taste DELIGHTFUL drinking it in coffee! I could taste both flavors (not in the same cup just to clarify) very well and loved them both! I’m interested in a lot of the other flavors in the future!

Inbru Flavors:

Belgian Cookie

Vanilla Bean

Crème Caramel

Butterscotch Drop

Chocolate Fudge

Cinnamon Hazelnut

Coconut Crème

Irish Crème

Celtic Mocha

Raspberry Truffle

Danish Pastry

Mountain Hazelnut

Cinnamon Stick

Pumpkin Pie

Highlander Grogg

Raspberry Tart

Toasted Chestnut

Jamaican Craze

Inbru also carries gift certificates if you would like to purchase one especially for those who you know are coffee lovers! My husband’s family is filled with them- my in law’s, I don’t think would survive long without their coffee! Flavoring your coffee this way is a lot healthier now for you instead of the use of creamers that have additional fattening or additional chemicals that are in them. I recommend the healthier route of Inbru Coffee Flavors in which it delivers!

Inbru has been so kind to allow Freebie Frenzy to host a giveaway for them allowing one of my lucky readers to have 2 jars of Inbru Coffee Flavors of your choice!

[REVIEW] WOW Baking Company

In the past, I haven’t had much experience in wheat and gluten-free products. It wasn’t intentional, I just wasn’t sure exactly on the benefits or how it would taste versus other products that did contain wheat and gluten. Well, after having WOW Baking Company products, I’m happy with what I tried!! I didn’t like all of the products that I received, not because they tasted bad, but because I don’t like certain things such as things raisins or nuts in cookies/brownies or similar things like in this case, cranberries. I received Chocolate Brownie, Oregon Oatmeal cookie, Ginger Molasses cookies, Lemon Burst Cookies, and Peanut Butter Cookies. I wasn’t as big of a fan of the chocolate brownie or the ginger molasses cookies. The chocolate brownie was just a little more rich than I was anticipating or wanting. The Ginger Molasses cookies were pretty okay, but ginger seems to make me nauseous. The peanut butter cookies were good- I could taste the lack of gluten and wheat. Did I forget to mention that these cookies are SUPER soft??! My favorite cookies were the Lemon Burst! I couldn’t put them down, they were so soft, gentle in my mouth, and wonderful in flavor! The other flavors that I wish I could have tried was the snickerdoodle and chocolate chip. I’ve had both of these kind of cookies, but it’s different trying them as wheat and gluten-free! You don’t realize how much there is a difference until you’ve tasted it!

To purchase their cookies for yourself, go check out their website- you won’t regret it!

[REVIEW] Quest Nutrition Natural Protein Bars

I seen Quest Low Carb Gluten Free Protein Bars somewhere and their flavors sounded SO delicious! I felt compelled to write them about reviewing their products! My husband unfortunately was not a big fan, but I believe that protein bars are something that you want to eat for a purpose. They’re NOT candy bars so it’s not all chocolate and peanuts kind of thing! There were only a few flavors that I didn’t care for. The benefits of a protein bar are not only for its convenience, but also if you workout at all then it’s really great as it helps maintain and building muscles! You don’t have to workout to be eating proteins bars, but it’s best for you right before or just after a workout! I didn’t get to eat all of the bars that they sent me because there were so many, but I got to try a lot of them to know that Quest brings you premium tasting protein bars! Protein bars just like protein shakes don’t taste like other candy bars or shakes like you get through fast food. They’re to help you, which usually means that it’s not going to taste that great. Quest was nice that well, they put in some great flavors into something that typically doesn’t taste as good so that you could enjoy them more than just needing to use them! My 3 favorite were flavors- Lemon Cream Pie, Strawberry Cheesecake, and Peanut Butter & Jelly. I was getting full eating these proteins bars, which is another helpful them just after a workout. It’s putting that substance in you without being bad eating before or after working out.

Cinnamon Roll- tasted like a cinnamon bun, but not too rich so I enjoyed it!

Apple Pie- it was a little rich in flavor, I had trouble actually eating all of it because of its flavor. It also had pieces of apple in it.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough- taking it out, it looked just like the Cinnamon Roll, but not as flavorful. It was a little on the bland side so a little disappointing, but still not terrible.

Strawberry Cheesecake- SMELLED DELICIOUS! Tasted wonderful too! Definitely had a strawberries AND cheesecake taste without the unhealthiness of eating the real thing!

Lemon Cream Pie- aside from not being a creamy or pudding taste- it did taste like Lemon Cream Pie! It had a light lemon/crust taste! Loved it!

Peanut Butter & Jelly- it had a slight jelly flavor, but mostly tasted like peanut butter, which was really fitting for a protein bar!

Quest also sent me Quest Cravings Protein Peanut Butter Cups. Now, I’m a huge fan of Peanut Butter Cups- typically, anyway. The peanut butter in the cups was actually just fine and tasted great and a little normal for typical peanut butter cups. The chocolate, however, had a dark chocolate taste on it with an after taste. I was not a big fan of these. They were also HUGE in size for peanut butter cups!

The other flavors that were sent to me:

Peanut Butter Supreme

Chocolate Brownie

Mixed Berry Bliss

Vanilla Almond Crunch

Banana Nut Muffin

Chocolate Peanut Butter

Coconut Cashew

[REVIEW & GIVEAWAY] Piczzle Photo Puzzles

I’ve had the opportunity to try Piczzle Photo Puzzles out.Piczzle Photo Puzzles makes your photos into puzzles. I have a medium size of 30 pieces. Putting it together was simple enough and it didn’t seem like 30 as quickly as it was. I thought it was neat to have a picture as a puzzle though! The only thing that would have been nice would be that it felt like a regular puzzle. It just didn’t feel as soft as others did. It wasn’t bad or anything, it just didn’t have the soft natural feeling to apuzzle as others feel. I’m not all that familiar with other picturepuzzles so I have no idea if it’s so easy to be able to be made like other typical puzzles that you just regularly buy in a store. I would have to try out other picture puzzle companies, but at the present time, I am still happy with Piczzle giving me the neat product of a picture puzzle! Another thing that’s a plus with them is that they don’t contract out to have their puzzlesmade as far as these puzzles are Made in America! That may not make a difference to you and as far as the puzzle itself, it doesn’t matter to me, but it’s just our country, I think can use all the help it can get and supporting people to be able to work- makes me happy! Piczzle also has Wooden puzzlesand I think those would be pretty neat to have! They have a variety of designs and types of puzzles such as a heartshaped or round puzzles.

Like Piczzle Photo Puzzles on Facebook and Follow Piczzle Photo Puzzles on Youtube.

They have been so kind enough to offer a lucky reader a Piczzle Photo Puzzle as well!

[REVIEW & GIVEAWAY] Red Jacket Orchards Juice

After trying Red Jacket Orchards juice, I want more!! They sent me the flavors of Grape Apple, Strawberry Apple, Blackcurrant Apple, Fuji Apple, Raspberry Apple, and Cherry Tart Stomp. All of them I loved but a few stood out just a little more than others.  My favorites were the Strawberry Apple, Raspberry Apple, and Fuji Apple. I thought before trying the Fuji Apple juice that it was just going to be like any otherapple juice, but it definitely was NOT! It tasted like very FRESH FUJI APPLE! I’ve never tasted such a fresh taste inapple juice. I got the same feeling with the other juices- the Strawberry Apple- it tasted like fresh sweet strawberries with just a little apple taste. The Raspberry Apple, again, was really no different. I like raspberries, but it depends how they’re used, etc. I had never heard or tasted blackcurrants before so I can describe what it tasted like other than blackcurrants. It tasted like a mix of a pear and star fruit flavor. It was very yummy and wonderful! The Grape Apple tasted like a mix of grapes and apples. The Cherry Tart Stomp was just as it sounds- cherry flavor but TART. It wasn’t too sour for me that I didn’t want to drink it, but it was definitely tart! I so would like more of their juice! I didn’t get to try apricot stomp, but it sounds yummy too! I looked up as to what stores sold them so that maybe I could buy some. There are 2 stores in the area, both are called “The Fresh Market” so if there is one of those stores close to you, chances are that it will probably be there. Sometime, I’d like to go there to see what other goodies they may have! I can’t stop thinking about how I want more Red Jacket juice!! You can also buy their juice on their site if you can’t find them in a store near you!

 Red Jacket was also VERY nice to offer a giveaway to a lucky reader for a 6 pack of 12 oz. juices!

[REVIEW & GIVEAWAY] Thera°Pearl Back Wrap

 

THERA°PEARL sent me a back wrap to review. I was pleasantly pleased to have received this product to review. I have Degenerative Disc Disease and so my back tends to hurt more often than others. I go to the chiropractor and an ice pack or other natures help it from hurting as bad. So, needless to say, this product came in GREAT use to me! THERA°PEARL offers pearl technology for their wraps which can be used as a HOT or COLD pack! With the Pearl Technology, when cold, the pack is smooth and soft on your skin while it delivers soothing relief. After heating up the packin the microwave for the hot pack effect, it relieves stiff muscles while helping with blood flow. The pearl technology reminds me of deco beads just not as big. It feels very soft and comfortable while using it! They recommend using it for at least 20 minutes to get the results that you’re looking for.The box that it comes in is also nice enough to tell you how long you should heat it for depending on your wattage microwave! This is what they had to say that the benefits of ICE therapy and HEAT therapy were.

“What are the benefits of ICE therapy?
Ice therapy (a.k.a. cryotherapy) is one of the most common recommendations by doctors for injury prevention & recovery.Applying ice immediately after an injury or physical trauma (the sooner the better) constricts blood flow & slows bleeding/swelling. Ice therapy reduces pain & muscle spasm. Also, applying ice to the injured area decreases the metabolic rate of cells, which limits the risk of cell death after an injury and helps prevent long-term damage.”

“What are the benefits of HEAT therapy?

Heat therapy increases circulation (blood flow), effectively relaxing muscles & easing movement. Stimulating blood flow to injured areas once swelling has gone down promotes healing & speeds recovery of damaged tissue.”

I would recommend THERA°PEARL for any sore or injured muscles. They offer more than just back wraps- they have ones for knees as well as ones forkids which they also sent me! They were super cute and my daughter also sees a chiropractor because she has scoliosis. She gets adjusted biweekly and afterwards, they suggest applying an ice pack as well so she’s not in any extra pain! THERA°PEARL sent Pearl the Pig and Ping the Panda! Sometimes it’s hard to getkids, especially my daughter to have the patience with things like having an ice pack on her. These make it a lot easier and willing for her to have it on her. It’s cute and friendly looking- very kid friendly!

I suggest you checking out their website as well as their social media sites such as

 Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and even Google+!

THERA°PEARL has been so kind to offer a lucky readera back wrap!

[REVIEW & GIVEAWAY] Inchbug Custom Orbit Labels

I was honored with the chance to try out Inchbug’s Orbit Labels! I told them what color I wanted and what I wanted them to say. They sent me 4 labels and I found them useful enough and there was enough to cover all of her “main” cups! I thought they would come in handy and sure enough, they did! I babysit- and I don’t normally get the cups mixed up, but it’s always nice to know what cups go where. Then, mydaughter stayed the night when my niece and she uses the exact kind of cups. So it REALLY helped not getting them mixed up and that Layla got her cups back! I think the Inchbug’s Orbit Labels are very useful and very cute looking too! Something else I thought was neat, was there was braille written on there that said “Inchbug.” The only thing that would have made it cooler is that I had “Layla Mckenzie” written on there as my “label” and it would have been neat if THAT was written in braille as well. You can also put icons on them like a heart or a flower. The labels also help young ones to grip the cups. They fit most sippy cups, bottles, and snack containers.  Something also nice to know is that they’re dishwasher and microwave safe! It’s nice to know so that you can keep them on the cups and not have to remove them for either to use! However, they ARE easily removable for adults and not easy at all for children to remove. They have a tight grip on the cups or other containers that you would like labeled! Inchbug’s Orbit Labels are useful to any adult in charge of babies, toddlers, and other young children!
