5 Hour Energy Pink Lemonade

Smiley360 sent me on a new mission and, I have to say, I really liked this one. They sent me 2 bottles of 5 Hour Energy Pink Lemonade in a pink bottle for BREAST CANCER AWARENESS! Okay, so that right there gives it my vote. They're donating a minimum of $75,000 for breast cancer awareness. That's awesome. It's even better that it tastes pretty darn good! I'm not usually one for sugar-free ANYTHING because I don't like the aftertaste. This really didn't have a bad aftertaste AND it works. I waited for a rainy, dreary day before I drank it.... Definitely good timing. I wasn't bouncing off the walls like a 2 year old but it did give me enough energy to wake me up and help me concentrate. LOVE IT! Thank you, for my free 5-Hour Energies, Smiley360!

Leave V.S. forever?? Just might be doing that!

So... I have always been a Victoria's Secret kind of girl. I'm pretty big busted and always swore by their bras because I could never find another brand that fit me well. I would save and save and then bite the bullet when I spent $50+ on a new bra. Consequently, I have a few bras that are a few years old. You know you're supposed to get a new one every 6 months, right?

So, when BzzAgent sent me on a new campaign to try out a Playtex bra, I was skeptical. They sent me a Playtex Secrets® Balconette bra. I have to admit, it's pretty cute. It's in a nude-type color. I pull it out of the box, pull the price tag off of it ($37 at Kohl's, by the way), put it on and... Wow... This is a Playtex? It's more comfortable than my $68 V.S. bra... Look in the mirror... No funny shaped boobies, like what the one V.S. bra does to me. Fits nice. No, I lie. Fits perfectly. Why haven't I tried the Playtext bras before? Oh, wait... Maybe it's the whole "you get what you pay for" line. No. So not true! There are some things out there that are cheaper and better than the more expensive things. Now, you might be thinking that I'm fibbing. Let me tell you, this is the only bra I'll wear right now. I love it. I really need a black one... Hey, Playtex. Think you help a girl out? 40D, please!

Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil

Okay, so... A while back I joined BzzAgent.com... Probably one of the best websites on the face of the planet. Why, you ask? Because BzzAgent puts real products in your hands for you to test and give feedback on. It doesn't cost a dime to join. The more you participate, the more campaigns you have a chance of getting into.

One of the latest campaigns I've been able to get into was the Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil. I think this is going to be one of my favorite products EVER. I use it in my hair to keep down the frizziness and make it silky & shiny. I love to use it after I shave - No more dry, ashy legs for me! It makes a great *on the go* lotion that isn't greasy! A little goes a long way for both skin and hair! It isn't hard to overdo it in your hair though so you have to be mindful of how much you spritz.

One of the best things about it? Price! No joke? I'm a cheapskate! I don't like spending a lot of money if I don't have to. This stuff is $5.99 MSRP. It's inexpensive. It works. It's versatile. Bottom line - Spend the $6 and try it!

Ooooh... My New Sleep Number Pillow ~ Smiley360`

So... I get this HUGE box in the mail the other day and, to my surprise, it's my brand new Sleep Number Pillow, courtesy of Smiley360.

The Smiley360 Mission?
Join this Mission and receive:
Smiley360 information card to bring with you to the Sleep Number store
One (1) Sleep Number 5” CoolFit™ Foam Contour Pillow ($129.99 value!)
One (1) SLEEP NUMBER® catalog featuring comfortable products to help you sleep better
Smiley360 SLEEP NUMBER® Sharing Guide
Even better -- In my box, Sleep Number 6” CoolFit™ Foam Contour Pillow -- $139.99 pillow!

Now, I always thought those ultra-expensive pillows were all hype and paying for the name... Okay, the price may have something to do with the fact this thing costs $140 bucks but... OMG It's the most awesome pillow. The CoolFit technology really does work. No more flipping the pillow over when it gets hot!!! That's one of the biggest gripes I have about foam pillows! That, alone, makes it one of the best pillows I've ever owned. Now, I do put another pillow under it because it just doesn't feel like it's high enough, but that's probably just my personal preference.

My Rating --- 9/10 Smiles
Only losing one due to the height of the pillow and the fact that $140 is still obsurd for a pillow...

New Obsession ~~ MAGNETIC NAIL POLISH!!!

Okay... So, the kids and I are at the mall last night and we walk into Claire's because they had the 10 for $10 sale going on. The girls and I do our shopping and then go to check out. What do we see on the counter? MAGNETIC NAIL POLISH!  I had heard about it (and it's usual outrageous price tag) but had never seen it in the store.
         
             Side Note :: Sephora ( I believe) was one of the first brands to come out with this type of nail polish
             and they charge at least $16 per bottle. Now, if you know anything about me... You know that I
             don't pay full price for anything if I don't have to. I absolutely *refuse* to pay that much for a bottle
             of nail polish!

That being said, I about jumped for joy when I saw that Claire's is only charging $8.50 per bottle AND they were having a buy one, get one half off sale!! I only got one bottle last night, but... I think I really want to go get another bottle (or two). If you don't know what it looks like, check out Google images. There are a few Do It Yourself pages out there... I'm thinking about trying them out so I'll let you know how (and if) it works!

Daily Freebie ~ Android Apps!

It's one of the best kept secrets out there.
  Amazon lets us have a 'paid' application for free everyday!

First thing you need to do is download the Amazon Appstore here. This not only gives you an option other than the Android Market, but you can also check for and download your Free App of the Day (FAOTD).

Now, Amazon hasn't perfected the art of pleasing everyone so there are going to be apps that you might find to be obsolete, but there are some *really good* ones, as well. I've seen MonopolyHoroscope HD ProAirport Mania First Flight, and Airport Mania 2: Wild Trips. Nothing's better than getting a great (and sometimes expensive) app for free.
