Giveaway - Black Diamond Floor Cleaning System - 2 Winners - Ends 11/17/09

Black Diamond Cleaners

"We make cleaning easy"

Black Diamond Stoneworks was founded in 1997 with the simple belief that quality, value, and performance never go out of style. We started with five cleaning and sealing products for natural stone and ceramic tile. Due to their huge success our product line has continued to grow and now numbers over 30 superior products!

Somewhere in the last few decades products have really shifted to disposables. This is especially true of cleaning products. Things that used to be made to last for years are now made to be thrown away after a single use. It may be momentarily convenient, but huge amounts of trash are being generated from all of these single use products. 

I was happy to find the Black Diamond Wood Floor Cleaning System - a good choice for the environment AND it's really easy to use and get my wood floors clean :)

It comes with:

*Wood & Laminate Floor Cleaner - works great on my wood floors and it's plant based and non-toxic!

*Reusable Microfiber Cleaning Pad - cleans my floors without streaks and it's washable!

*Mop - very easy to screw together and the long handle is built to last - this is definitely not going to a landfill anytime soon.

SPECIAL DEAL ALERT - Click on the Walmart logo on their home page to get a $2 off coupon :) You can purchase Black Diamond products in retail stores and and they have some special offers available when you buy online.

PRIZE ALERT - **2** of you will win a Black Diamond Floor Cleaning System :)

Giveaway - Lucan by Susan Kearney - Ends 11/17/09

Lucan 

by Susan Kearney

Paranormal Romance

Pub. Date 9/5/09

Publisher's Description: Healer and high priestess of her people, Lady Cael is fated to life without a mate. But a mysterious explorer named Lucan Rourke doesn't know her secrets, and his touch makes her crave a future that her extraordinary birthright has forbidden her.

Lucan has just one mission on Pendragon: to find the mythical Holy Grail, Earth's only hope for survival. His powerful attraction to Cael is a distraction he can't afford, unless he convinces her to join forces with him. Yet working so closely together only heightens their passion . . . even when the terrifying truth of Cael's heritage threatens to shatter Lucan's every belief-and the galaxy itself.

Paranormal romance is not usually my first choice, but there was just something about the cover of this book that called to me ;)  So, for me, the book itself is ok. Someone who really likes paranormal romance (and I do know that many of you do) will probably think this is more than just 'ok.'  Either way, it is a beautiful book!

SPECIAL DEAL ALERT - Lucan is available on Amazon as part of their 4 for the price of 3 promotion (there are over 100,000 items that qualify for this promotion)

PRIZE ALERT - ***5*** of you will win Lucan - Thank you, Hachette Book Group :)

Here's what ya gotta do to enter to win ....

Giveaway - SnuggleBug NapSac - Ends 11/16/09

SnuggleBug NapSac

First of all, I love the name of this - think most of us have referred to our kids as 'snuggle bugs' :) This is one of those clever products that is so handy that I'm surprised someone didn't invent this many many years ago.

The SnuggleBug NapSac is a portable sleeping bag, pillow and carrying sack. It's sized for kids ages 2-5 and is perfect for taking to daycare, grandma's house, on vacations and outings ... or even at home when your child needs a special quiet place.  The outside is nylon and the inside is a super soft fleece. It doesn't have a zipper like a traditional sleeping bag, so it's easier for little hands to use and your kid won't get poked by a zipper.

And - one of the best features of all - it's machine washable! Easy Peasy.

This is very easy and very fun for a just barely 2 year old - light enough to tote around and easy to open and get set up.  At her age she needs some help getting it put back together for storage, but it will be much easier with practice and age. And it's roomy enough that she will be able to continue using it as she grows.

PRIZE ALERT - 1 of you will win a SnuggleBug NapSac - arv $39.99 :)

Here's what ya gotta do to enter to win ....

***Main Entry: For your main entry,  check out SnuggleBug NapSac and comment with something you saw on the site*** (If you are not a blogger or if your email address is not publicly available on your blogger account, please post it in your entry so that I may contact you if you win)

Ecostore USA

No Nasty Chemicals

Our eco friendly, plant-based household cleaning products are as effective as the leading supermarket brands, and our body and baby care ranges are gentle on your skin and are simply beautiful to use.

All of our products are made from plant- and mineral-based ingredients, free of toxic chemicals that bring people closer to nature with non-toxic, environmentally safe solutions that also help to reduce our carbon footprint

So - who wants nasty chemicals in their cleaning products? Anyone? Anyone? ;)

Maybe this beautiful video will help you feel good about choosing products that are good for your family!

Ecostore has cleaning products for your home, your babies, your pets and you.  They also have some helpful information on green living - these people have done a lot of research. And I enjoyed trying out 2 of their products - yes, I enjoyed doing laundry and washing dishes!

* Front Loader Laundry Powder - First, this powder did a great job getting our laundry clean. And I love that it is made out of natural stuff - mineral salts with other plant based ingredients. It has a very light scent, but wasn't anything strong that was noticeable to my kid with a sensitive nose. I love that using this product won't put harsh chemicals next to my family's skin.

* Dishwash Liquid - I wash all of my dishes by hand and have used lots of dishwashing liquid over the years .... the Ecostore liquid does a great job of getting my dishes clean without leaving a soapy residue that many other brands do. There is citrus oil in it that gives it a light citrus aroma and it's gentle on my hands.

Ecostore products are available online and if you're in the midwest you can look for them at Meijer stores.

PRIZE ALERT - 1 of you will win a $25 e-gift certificate to EcoStore :)

Giveaway - Fall To Pieces by Mary Forsberg Weiland - Ends 11/16/09

Fall To Pieces 

A Memoir of Drugs, Rock 'n' Roll, and Mental Illness

by Mary Forsberg Weiland

with Larkin Warren

Pub. Date 11/10/09

Publisher's description: In March 2007, twenty-four hours after Mary Weiland dragged her husband Scott's pricey rock-star wardrobe onto their driveway and torched it, she was locked up in a mental hospital. Watching all this were her frightened extended family, a conflicted husband wrestling with demons of his own, and a tabloid industry gone gleeful at the "Bonfire in Toluca Lake!"

To the outside world, Weiland had led what seemed to be an enviable life. A successful international model in the nineties, she married her longtime sweetheart—famed lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots and, later, Velvet Revolver, Scott Weiland—in 2000. Mary was the sane one, went the story—it was the tempestuous, unpredictable Scott who was crazy. In her gripping memoir Fall to Pieces, Mary Weiland reveals that the truth is somewhere in between.

Mary Forsberg Weiland is a familar figure to me - her modeling career, her husband's music career and their public tabloid life... and I was very interested to get this book and learn more. I enjoy memoirs, but sometimes they end up sounding like a 'brag book.'  That is NOT the case with this one.  The author comes across as a very real, genuine person who is wanting to share her honest story to help others understand her personal situation and the nature of addiction and mental illness. She's even working towards certification for drug and alcohol counseling to further help others.  The book is interesting and would be an inspiration for people who are struggling and their loved ones.

SPECIAL DEAL ALERT - Fall to Pieces is available at a 46% off discount on Amazon!  And you can also read an excerpt of the book.

PRIZE ALERT - 1 of you will win Fall To Pieces :)

Here's what ya gotta do to enter to win ....

***Main Entry: For your main entry,  check out Fall To Pieces and comment with something you learned about the book or author*** (If you are not a blogger or if your email address is not publicly available on your blogger account, please post it in your entry so that I may contact you if you win)

Giveaway - Striking Skin Care System - 5 Winners - Ends 11/15/09

Striking Skin Care

In November 2008, Striking Skin Care with SmartPeptides launched as a new skin care line marketed to women over 40. We know fine lines, wrinkles and loss of firmness are a concern for women dealing with changing hormones. As we age, our skin thins and collagen breaks down. Firmness is lessened and wrinkles start to develop appearing gradually over time. Skin can appear dull and less radiant than before.

Hooray!!! Skin care products that are designed for women who are over 40!  There are many days when I feel like I still belong at the children's table at family get togethers, but then there are those other days when reality sets in and I'm feeling my age and then some. Either way, I want my skin to look young and fresh.

I was really impressed when I read about the scientific research that has gone into creating the Striking Skin Care line. You can read about it on their website and watch it in this informative YouTube video.

I got to try out the Striking Daily Essential Kit.  It's an easy 4 step process that includes:

* Multi-Vitamin Cleanser * Multi-Peptide Serum * Rejuvenating Eye Cream * Restorative Moisture Cream *

The system is really easy to use - nothing tricky to remember - and the products are conveniently sized.  I was pleased to see that their products are all paraben free, fragrance free and have no artifical colors.  Fragrance free is a big plus for me - doesn't interfere with my other products and would also be great for people with fragrance sensitivities. 

 

I'm enjoying using all of the products in the kit as a part of my 'over 40' routine. The product that stands out as my favorite is definitely the Rejuvenating Eye Cream.  I apply a little bit of the thick cream in the morning and a little in the evening and my eye area is feeling refreshed. :)

SPECIAL DEAL ALERT - Striking Skin Care offers free shipping on orders over $75.

PRIZE ALERT - ***5*** of you will win the Striking Daily Essential Kit (arv $50) :)

Here's what ya gotta do to enter to win ....

Giveaway - Gummy Lump Melissa & Doug Cupcake Set - Ends 11/15/09

Gummy Lump

Toys that make sweet memories

This store has such cute toys!  I wish there had been a Gummy Lump when I was a kid, because I would have wanted one of everything ;)

I received the absolutely adorable Wooden Bake & Decorate Cupcake Set by Melissa & Doug.  

It includes:

* Cupcake Tray * Cupcakes * Icing Tops * Cupcake Sleeves * Candles * Icing Markers * Oven Mitt *

All that's needed is your child's imagination to bake and then decorate these cute realistically sized wooden cupcakes.  After assembling the cupcakes, the cupcakes are decorated with markers that are made to look like real icing tubes.  Then the candles are added and stay in place with velcro.  The designs can be wiped off with a dry paper towel and reused again and again.

Many times when I see that a toy is marked for ages 3+, I just kind of roll my eyes and think it would be ok for a smaller child.  But in this case, I agree that 3+ is a good thing.  The child needs to be careful when using the markers so the design won't smudge - so the pieces and the difficulty would not be good for a little one.  But for the 3 and over crowd, this is a fabulous creative toy :)

SPECIAL DEAL ALERT - Gummy Lump is having a Buy 3, Get the 4th Free sale on Melissa & Doug play food - and there is also a 20% off sale :)

PRIZE ALERT - 1 of you will win a Melissa & Doug Cupcake Set :)

EXTRA PRIZE ALERT - Gummy Lump is having a giveaway on their blog. You can enter to win a Melissa & Doug multi-level wooden doll house. Giveaway ends 11/22 - see their blog for details. 

Here's what ya gotta do to enter to win ....

Giveaway - Pretty Please Press Children's Book Set - Ends 11/15/09

Pretty Please Press

Children's Books

Pretty Please Press publishes children's books that are designed to be read aloud and talked about. Each book contains a message about character and values that helps parents and children think and talk about a variety of issues. 

I received a wonderful assortment of hardcover books from Pretty Please Press.  Each of the 4 books has a unique story and unique illustrations with a good positive message.

* Bella Basset Ballerina - teaches perseverance

* The Scritchy Little Twitchell Sisters - teaches resolving conflicts

* Kick Block Punch - teaches setting goals

* Pynx -  teaches tolerance

The stories are great to reinforce positive character and to spark good conversation as you are reading with your child. The illustrations are beautiful - I especially like the expressive dogs in Bella Basset Ballerina.

There is also some bonus material for each of the books that you can download for free at their site - vocabulary, concept and character building cards.  These would be ideal for home schooling or just for fun. And I appreciate the 'regular' text in the books. Often children's books use flashier fonts that can be difficult for early readers.

SPECIAL DEAL ALERT - All books are discounted 20% on the Pretty Please Press site and when you buy 3 books you get one free !

PRIZE ALERT - 1 of you will win a set of all 4 Pretty Please Press children's books :)

Giveaway - Flash Drive Keychain - Ends 11/15/09

Wholesale Keychain

Hooray! I had so much fun doing a review and giveaway for a digital photo keychain - now I've got another great keychain to giveaway.

The keychain flash drive is a great little accessory.  It looks nice and is very handy.  It holds up to 64 mb and is perfect for my teenager to store research and homework projects on and transport them between computers. The little cover slides over to protect the flash drive when it's not in use. And it was really easy to use - no advanced technical skills were needed - just plug it in and follow the instructions.

Wholesale Keychains has a huge assortment of products available - products to fit the unique style of even the hard to shop for people on your Christmas list.

And ... I found it interesting that when I did the digital photo keychain giveaway, many of you commented that your favorite other item is the Pepper Spray Keychain. :)  I'm not giving one of those away, but they are available on their site for only $14.99 and the cases come in some fun colors.

SPECIAL DEAL ALERT - Sweeps4Bloggers readers can save 10% when you use the promo code - sweeps10 . This code is good through November 30, 2009.

Scary info from the Earthlust site:

Giveaway - Bum Boosa Eco Gift Basket - Ends 11/14/09

Bum Boosa

Natural Biodegradable Bamboo Baby Products

I love bamboo and was so happy to find a company that is using it to make baby products! I've seen bamboo baby clothing, towels and accessories but this was the first time I've seen bamboo wipes. It's great to have an eco friendly alternative to traditional baby wipes.

Bamboo is a sustainable resource that can be grown without pesticides and with very little water. You can read more about this wonderful resource on the Bum Boosa site.

And in addition to being good for the environment, Bum Boosa wipes are very very soft which is good for your baby's delicate skin!

The soft Bum Boosa wipes have a beautiful natural scent.  Instead of smelling like chemicals, these wipes contain lavender and sweet orange essential oils, so your baby gets clean and gets the benefit of the oils.  You'll want to use these wipes for more than just your baby's behind ;) And it's so nice to know that they are 100% biodegradable!

The Bum Boosa Diaper Rash Ointment is another good smelling bamboo product. The lavender and chamomile aroma is very relaxing and the cream goes on smoothly.  They use a fine bamboo powder in the ointment - I'm amazed that hard bamboo can be turned into such soft products.

Bum Boosa products are available online and in some retail stores. 

Their Eco-Gift basket is available online and would make a fabulous gift! 

It includes:

3 packages of wipes - diaper rash ointment - lavender essential oil - recipe card for making your own natural baby products 

PRIZE ALERT - 1 of you will win the Bum Boosa Eco Gift Basket  (ARV $39.99) :)

Giveaway - True Blue by David Baldacci - 5 Winners - Ends 11/14/09

True Blue

By David Baldacci

Fiction/Suspense/Thriller

Pub. Date 10/27/09

From the publisher: A mysterious high-profile homicide in the nation's capital collides with the dark side of national security in David Baldacci's new, heart-stopping thriller. TRUE BLUE Mason "Mace" Perry was a firebrand cop on the D.C. police force until she was kidnapped and framed for a crime. She lost everything-her badge, her career, her freedom-and spent two years in prison. Now she's back on the outside and focused on one mission: to be a cop once more. Her only shot to be a true blue again is to solve a major case on her own, and prove she has the right to wear the uniform.

What fun!  Suspense/Thrillers are typically my favorite genre.  I enjoyed Baldacci's First Family a few months ago and enjoyed True Blue as well.  The story is gripping from the beginning. I enjoyed the DC setting and the female lead character.

SPECIAL DEAL ALERT - True Blue is available at a 45% discount on Amazon :)

PRIZE ALERT - ***5*** of you will win True Blue - thank you Hachette Book Group!  :)
