Flipz Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels Review






My local Wal-Mart only had two bags of Flipz Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels on the shelf so unfortunately I wasn't able to purchase different flavors. Flipz Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels is a great combination of sweet and salty with a little crunch. It satisfies my cravings and is perfect when one is craving something that is not too sweet and not too salty.

Flipz is great out of the bag and is also great mixed with popcorn and nuts. Overall I give it a 5 out of 5 and highly recommend it.  If you are interested in purchasing Flipz you can find it at your local Wal-Mart, Target and Amazon.

I was given two free coupons in exchange for my review and the opinion is my own.

SpaceSaver 5 Jumbo Storage Bags With Hand Pump Review



I like storage bags and have them in different brands and sizes, but this is the first time trying out the SpaceSaver brand. The SpaceSaver jumbo storage bags are huge and feel thicker and more durable than the usual ones that I have purchased before. I really love how it comes with a hand pump so that you can use it in lieu of a vacuum or while traveling.

I have an extra-large handmade comforter that I received as a gift that I have been storing in a plastic storage container. The comforter fit easily in the jumbo storage bag and it still had some extra room. I first tried out the hand pump just to see how it works. The hand pump works fine, but I liked using the vacuum better because it sucked out all of the air within seconds.

Atkins/Low Carb Diet – The Ultimate Quickstart Guide: The Healthy Way To Lose Weight Review



I’ve heard of the Atkins Diet before, but did not know much about it. I’ve found Atkins/Low Carb Diet – The Ultimate Quickstart Guide: The Healthy Way To Lose Weight to be very informative and provides the basics of the Atkins Diet. I like how it explains the four phases of the Atkins diet and what to expect from each phase and I also like how there is a sample 7 day diet plan included so that you can see what a typical Atkins menu looks like and decide whether this diet will work for you or not. The ebook is well written and easy to understand although there are some grammatical errors.

RFID Blocking Sleeves review



I received 10 credit card sized RFID Blocking Sleeves and 2 Passport Protectors in exchange for my review.  I have been using the RFID blocking sleeves for approximately a week for three of my credit cards and my drivers license. The RFID blocking sleeves are made of a thin paper type material with an aluminum interior. I inserted each credit card and drivers license into its own RFID blocking sleeve and put it into my wallet. I really like how it didn’t make my wallet bulky. I also liked how there is a little cut out on the side so that you can see which credit card is in that sleeve and how easily I was able to take the credit card out of the sleeve. I’m not sure if the RFID blocking sleeves and passport protectors work as I have no way to test it, but it does give you a sense of peace of mind that come a long way.

30 Interactive Brain Teasers To Warm Up Your Brain by Puzzleland Review



30 Interactive Brain Teasers To Warm Up Your Brain in Kindle edition by Puzzleland is aimed toward beginner level teens, adults and smart kids. Each brain teaser is about a paragraph long and comes with one clue and the answer. First you read the brain teaser and try to figure out the answer. If you are stumped, you can click the link “Give me a clue” or if you have solved it you can click the link “Answer” to see if you got it right. The link takes you to another page with a short statement.  You then have the option of going back to the brain teaser by clicking the link “Go Back” or check your answer by clicking the link “See Answer”.

The answer to the brain teasers might not be as easy as it seems. I read the first brain teaser and automatically assumed the answer must be X and so when I checked my answer I was surprised that I got it wrong. If I had clicked on the clue link, I would have known that the answer was not X as it stated it wasn’t. Also the answers explain how you can solve the brain teaser to get the answer. After getting the first question wrong I made sure to read the brain teaser and double check my work.

Over the brain teasers were enjoyable and there were only a few that I’ve seen before. I like the format of being able to get a clue or the answer. The only down side is that it only has thirty brain teasers so you go through it really quickly.

Tongue Twisters for Kids by Riley Weber

I had purchased "The Tongue Twisters for Kids" by Riley Weber in Kindle edition in 2014 and kind of forgot about it until I was baby sitting my niece. I love spending time with my niece and she loves it when we do things together.  My niece loves it when I read stories to her and so I decided to make the tongue twisters a game. We each tried to say the tongue twisters as fast as we could. It kept us entertained and laughing and she was still saying some of the tongue twisters when it was time for her to go home.

If you're interested, The Tongue Twister for Kids is currently free at Amazon.com

As always, thank you for stopping by.

Daiso Carrollton, Texas review



Daiso opened up its first Texas store at 2540 Old Denton Rd #100, Carrollton, TX 75006 in August. Daiso is a hundred yen store or in the U.S. it is a $1.50 store so the majority of the items are a $1.50 unless marked otherwise.

I decided to wait a month before stopping by. I went on the weekend and the store had a lot of customers. I didn't have a chance to go through each aisle, but did check out the beauty, stationary and bento aisles. There was alot of items that was sold out and I will have to stop by again later. I really loved the bento aisles and picked up some bento boxes and, plastic picks and sauce containers. My goal is to start making my lunch for work.

Daiso has something for everyone. It has stainless steel chopsticks, chair socks, cute stationary, miso soup bowls, an assortment of strainers, Japanese snacks and aisles of beauty products. The store is very clear and has many cute and interesting items.

**I can't wait for some more Daisos to open up near where I live. 

Studio Movie Grill in Spring Valley Review

I watched Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation at the Studio Movie Grill located at 13933 N. Central Expy. Dallas, TX 75243. I purchased my ticket online and selected my seat and had the receipt emailed and texted to me. I then arrived at the Studio Movie Grill approximately twenty minutes early and and went to the automated ticker printer and inputted my receipt confirmation number and it printed out my ticket. I showed my ticket to the ticket checker and the employee gave me a menu and I headed to the theater, found my seat, sat down and checked out the menu. The chair reminded me of the uncomfortable airline seats with a little light up button on it. I pushed the button and a server came by to take my order. Another individual brought out my meal. I purchased the grilled crispy chicken tenders with honey bbq sauce. The food was okay, but I liked the fact that you can order from your seat and the meal is delivered right to you without missing any of the movie. An extra bonus is the fact that they serve alcohol.

Over all I highly recommend this theater and would go back to watch another movie.

Dollar Tree Detangler Brush Review






First off I do not own any other brand of detangler brush so I have nothing to compare this brush to. The basic solutions detangler brush by Greenbrier International, Inc. (Dollar Tree brand) is made in China and comes in four colors; blue, orange, pink and purple. The detangler brush is made of plastic and the bristles are also made of flexible plastic that is mixed of long and short bristles.

I have thick, long, slightly wavy type of hair that easily gets tangled. Normally, I usually have to use detangling spray in order to brush my hair, but when trying out the Greenbrier Detangler Brush I decided not to use any products in my hair. The brush was easy to use and it detangled my hair without any pain or snags.   The handle makes the brush easy to hold and maneuver through my hair. 

Over all I highly recommend this brush from Dollar Tree as it is only a dollar and it works wonders on keeping my hair tangle free.

imPRESS Press On Manicure Ultra Gel Shine Review



tried the imPRESS press on manicure nails for the first time yesterday.  The package came with 24 nails in assorted sizes. I washed my hands and used the enclosed alcohol packet to clean all of my nails. I then sized the nails by placing the imPRESS nails over my existing nails to see which nail would be the best fit. Once I had sized  all of the imPRESS nails, I just took off the clear plastic off of the imPRESS nail and placed it on my own nail. I pressed down on the center of the imPRESS nail for about five seconds and then held down on the ends for about five seconds and continued doing each nail until I was completely done, doing the thumbs last. The nails are really pretty with a nice shine and are not that long. It does really look like I have gel polish on. Overall I really love the way the nails look and will update on how long they last before falling off.

So I had one nail fall off after wearing it for three days, but the rest lasted over five days. I had some that lasted two weeks. I used nail glue to put the nail that feel off. The nails are very flexible and don't easily come off like the acrylic nails do. Even though I hit the door hard with the nails, it didn't hurt which is a surprise because if I was wearing acrylic nails, the nail would of came off and it would of hurt. Over all I really liked these nails.


If you are interested in checking out imPRESS press on manicure nails you can find it at your local Walmart, Target or CVS.
