EcoZip {Review & Giveaway}

I have recently had the chance to review the ECOzip bag. This bag is a very green product, made with less plastic but yet has 3 times the value and strength of other plastic bags.

These bags are unlike any bag I’ve ever used before. It has a zip in the middle that you can use to separate your items or you can unzip it to use it as a full bag.

ECOzip Sandwich bags

For me, it has been an organization makeover in my house with these bags. Before- I was keeping all my craft, crochet, and sewing stuff in separate totes and really couldn’t sit down and get anything completed because I was spending so much time looking for a tool or something I desperately needed. Now I can keep everything together in the ECOzip.

This is a product that I will definitely continue to purchase, and one that I would recommend to you. You can use these bags in the kitchen for snacks, keeping leftovers fresh, or separating pre-prepped foods from the seasoning.

They are great to use around the house to separate or store your items. They are great to use for make-up, baby items, or just about anything. There is a larger bag that I use to separate my hot glue gun from glue sticks. It is a handy bag that is nice to use on the go. I can just put everything in my bag and not have to worry about them coming open and spilling.

Amazing, awesome, and eco-friendly. They use less plastic to make their bags and the design allows you to use less bags for your organization and storage needs.

Plus, they can be recycled.

Whether it’s packing your kids lunch in the morning, snacks to munch on after an intense workout, pre-prepping dinners, storing leftovers or packing toiletries and make-up for travel, Ecozip is versatile and convenient while still being kind to the earth.

Ecozip is a new multi-compartment storage bag that allows you to separate and organize multiple items all in 1 bag. Just zip and flip it! It’s 2 in 1 technology allows you to use the bag as a split bag where you get to separate and compartmentalize or by opening it’s middle zip and use the entire bag.

"Ecozip uses 20% less plastic to produce the bags and the 2 in 1 technology
helps you cut back on the amount of bags you use, with 3x the value.
Ecozip's "Zip n Flip" technology also offers convenience and versatility to
everyday storage needs by helping you separate and organize multiple items
all in 1 bag"

Suggested retail is $2.99 at a retail store/3.99

Street Moda {Review} Brand Name Shoes & Apparel for Cheap

I was lucky enough to get to review a pair of diesel shoes from Street Moda.

These are the most comfortable shoes I own and I wear them all the time now. They are lightweight and go with everything. They are practical yet extravagantly designed. These shoes retail for $90.00 but are sold for $29.99 at Street Moda. Which price would you prefer to pay?

I definitely would pay the $30 before the $90. Being a mom means putting the kids before myself and so I don’t have money falling out of my pockets to be able to spend tons of money on a pair of shoes or anything for that matter. I want a reasonable price for the shoes I want and that’s exactly what Street Moda has provided.

Street Moda is a cutting edge retailer of authentic brand name footwear, apparel and accessories at prices that can't be beat on the street.

I love Street Moda because they have a wide variety of brands to choose from which are all sold at cheap prices that you wouldn’t even think about seeing in shoe stores.

 

About Street Moda:

We carry the top junior and street wear brands in the world. The company was founded in 2005 by Internet entrepreneur Matt Kubancik, who was 18 at the time. Matt founded the company because growing up, he always wanted to the latest and hottest designer gear but could not afford the exorbitant prices retailers were charging. Coming from a very humble background, Matt wanted other people who came up from the same type of background as him to be able to access the latest and hottest designer gear at prices 50-80% off normal retail prices. Today, streetmoda.com is one of the largest independent footwear and apparel retailers on the web. Staying true to his roots, Kubancik devotes a lot of his energy to giving back. He works closely with Safe Place Services, which helps and shelters runaway kids, kids with bad family situations and kids with no where to run to. He can often be found giving out shoes to the kids at the local shelter, and also holding fashion show fundraisers for the organization.

Other products I ♥ from them..

Love these boots

These Coach Rainboots

These Doc Martin Boots

and this hoodie..

 

I was not paid to do this review. Street Moda was nice enough to let me review their products. The opinions expressed in this blog are purely my own opinion and is in no way persuaded..

Thanks Street Moda..

You can follow them on twitter

& you can friend them on facebook

SuperMarket Smarty {Review} The New Dry Erase Grocery List

It is so much easier getting items  you need when  your organized. My shopping experiences used to result in chaos because my shopping lists were unorganized. Not to mention the items I would forget to put on the list that I remembered I needed later...after leaving the store...my luck..lol

supermarket smarty - re-usable eco-friendly grocery list

But this SuperMarket Smarty is an amazing dry erase grocery list that helps you come home from the store without thinking “how in the world did I forget that”?

This list has everything grouped in categories such as:

*Dairy-where milk, eggs, and butter belong

*Deli- where cheese, sandwich meat, and salads & dips belong

*Fruits & Veggies- Not letting you forget the healthiest and most essential foods (not to mention delicious) including fresh herbs, nuts, and dried fruit.

*Whole Grains- helping you decide a healthier lifestyle of eating choices such as whole grain cereal, bread, muffins, tortillas, and rolls.

It also includes list of grains (rice...), pasta, and snacks in healthier choices such as suggesting oatmeal raisin cookies, baked chips, granola bar, air popped popcorn, pretzels, and crackers instead of chocolate, candy, and regular chips.

*Condiments-(extras)

Steak Sauce, Ketchup, Peanut Butter, Jelly, and Canola Oil..

*Beverages- Juice, coffee & coffee filters, tea, water, hot cocoa, orange juice..

*Spices-Salt, soy sauce, peppers..

*Frozen-fruit, ice cream, fries, pizza, waffles, hamburger, veggies..

*Canned-applesauce, beans, peas, tuna, broth, soup, veggies, fruit & more.

*Fish/seafood- catfish, shrimp, salmon....

*Meats-which include chicken, turkey, beef, pork...etc

*Supplies-Baking (flour, honey, sugar, breadcrumbs) Kitchen (Foil, Freezer Bags, Garbage Bags, Plastic Wrap) Paper Goods (Cups, Toilet paper, Tissue, Paper Towels..) Cleaning Supplies (Bathroom Cleaner, Detergent, Bleach, Dish Detergent, Furniture Polish...)

*Personal Care- (conditioner, shampoo, deodorant, soap, lotion, toothpaste..)

*Other- Batteries, Ice, Tape..

It has a notes section in case they have forgotten something you  need like poster board or new thread or whatever..or you just need to write a personal note to yourself such as..

Rack up on canned foods

We need glue for School art project

Pens and Pencils needed.

 

it also comes with a daily meal planner, so that you can plan what you need for meals on that day/week.

It has a pocket to hold coupons and the meal planner.

It has a symbol key to show you what each little icon means such as

lean protein, healthy fat, superfood, potassium...

This is a great way to eat better foods that you make you feel better instead of running in and grabbing random things. It helps you to stay organized and helps for a better shopping experience.

The SuperMarket Smarty has a magnifying glass right on the front to help read nutritional values on your food instead of squinting or tossing the food in the cart without looking at it.

This is an amazing reusable list that I will never go to the grocery store without. It fits in my purse perfectly and I don’t have to worry about it getting crumpled up and ripped because it is laminated.

It comes with a magnetic clip that holds you list on your refrigerator or filing cabinet.

I would definitely say this is a product worth the money. It has already been a great help to me in the short time I’ve had it. Saving me double trips to the store or not having something I need for breakfast.

W.H.A.T? What about it? If you can ask yourself WHAT? before choosing a food, you’ll be good to go.

W-Whole Wheat?

H-Healthy Oils?

A- Added Sugar?

T-Trans Fat?

Supermarket Smarty™ is a new Reusable Dry Erase Grocery List created by Patricia Tritt, a stay-at-home mom who wanted to help her family eat healthier.  The dry erase list, which opens up horizontally like a pamphlet uses fun, colorful symbols to highlight the nutritional benefits of foods like fruits & vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, healthy fats and more.  The symbols remind you to check off the best choices, taking the thinking out of healthy food shopping!

The list evolved out of Patricia’s own grocery list/nutrition ‘crib sheet’ that she brought to the supermarket each week to help her remember all the healthiest foods to include in her and her family’s diet.  She eventually had it laminated for dry erase (making it reusable) and added a coupon pocket, meal planning insert and embedded magnifying lens on the front cover to help people read fine print on packaging and labels.  It’s a complete system that can be clipped to your refrigerator (it comes with a magnet clip and dry erase marker), and items can be marked as you think of them throughout the week.  Now Healthy Food Shopping is as easy as Write, Wipe & Erase!

Order Supermarket Smarty™

The Smarty package includes:

  • Supermarket Smarty reusable dry erase grocery list
  • Retractable refillable dry erase marker.
  • Free magnetic clip (to hang on your refrigerator) free magnetic clip with every order

    $9.99 + shipping & handling

BrytonPick {Review & Giveaway} The New Way to Floss.

I got a chance to review the BrytonPick. It is a new and innovative way of flossing your teeth without all the hassle of regular floss.

I would have to say that I am not a floss carrying  person. I wish I could say I was, but I’m like those other people who don’t have time to run into the bathroom to look in the mirror- find the floss in a heap in my purse and actually floss. I don’t. It’s takes too much time and is inconvenient.

This is great for those times. When you’ve just ate- need to run somewhere and suddenly noticed you’ve not brushed and you haven’t had time to check whether you have leftover tuna salad in those choppers. Smile nicely and with confidence when you have this. It is great because it comes in so many colors, has a credit card size carrying case, and comes in an amazing array of colors to choose from.

Not only that- but it is reusable for 30 days. The stainless steel flexible ends kills germs so that it is okay to reuse. This eliminates how many flossers you have to throw away.

It is a very new and inventive way to floss. Who wants to carry the stringy floss around anyway?

The BrytonPick is a quick solution when there is no time or place to floss. Floss in seconds, a new and unique interdental cleaner.

*It reduces plaque & bacteria build-up.

*Prevents bad breath

*Stimulates proper hygiene.

It has flexible germ resistant stainless steel edges, that make the BrytonPick reusable for 30 days. It is convenient and potable because it has a go-anywhere credit card size carry pouch that make it easy to carry in your wallet, purse, or pocket. It is ultra-flexible and thin as floss reaching all areas to get the bacteria out.

People with braces will also find this to be an amazing product because the wires aren’t an obstacle for the BrytonPick. The rounded and blunt edges reduce the risk of injuring the gums, dental work and teeth. BrytonPick is strictly an interdental cleaner, it will not injure the gums since it is not forced.

DID YOU KNOW:

ADA statistics show only 12% of the population flosses regularly, mainly because floss is not convenient or easy to use. With today’s busy lifestyle there is rarely time or a proper place to floss after meals. As not many products are reusable or comfortable to carry, people often use dangerous improvised tools like; a pen cap, paperclip, staple, fingernail, edge of paper, or worse!

SO:

BrytonPick  is a stylish, convenient and discreet new innovation to get people flossing. It is easy to use, designed to be used daily, when on the go, to remove food debris and plaque from between the teeth after meals and snacks.

BrytonPick is made in the USA from completely recyclable materials. An additional environmental benefit is that BrytonPick is reusable (because of its germ-resistant stainless steel cleaning strips), thereby reducing the waste stream.
