Jaybird Bluetooth Wireless Headphones for an Active Lifestyle - & Sponsored GIVEAWAY


 
 Are you always on the go but love to listen to music, podcasts, or radio?  If you are looking for a new product to go with your phone, tablet, or other device Jaybird has a great product for you.
Jaybird creates state of the art headphones for active lifestyles!!  This is great for us because it seems like we go through many headphones in our household. My husband and I use headphones while we work out at the gym.  Sometimes the chord can really get in the way.  Jaybird created a Bluetooth headphone that is a great choice for any active person.

A little about Jaybird's Sound:
Traditionally when sound is compressed on a phone or music player,
sent through the air by Bluetooth connection, and decompressed by the
Bluetooth headphones, there is a substantial amount of packet loss.
It means your music comes through lacking some soul, lacking some
punch, and with a certain amount of static-like white noise.
Through perfecting a custom implementation of the native Bluetooth
SBC codec, which we call Shift™, we deliver a level of purity and
sound that rivals and challenges the very best in wired headphones.
A great feature of Shift™ is that it’s pair and play, meaning, nothing
special is required on your phone or music device, just standard
Bluetooth, Shift™ takes care of the rest.
Do you have trouble with normal ear buds falling out of your ears? Jaybird headphones are made with a very secure fit.  I love the secure fit of these headphones because one of my main problems with ear buds is having them always fall out. 
 
Jaybird Bluetooth headphones are $169.95 USD.  This may sound like a lot of money for headphones but you really have to consider what kind of product you are getting.  You are getting a top of the line headphone with great sound and a great fit.  The best feature about these headphones is that they are Bluetooth so you don't have all that extra wire in your way when you are living your active lifestyleif it be running, biking, hiking, lifting weights, or whatever activity your heart desires.  For as much money as we have spent on headphones for my husband we have spent well over the amount that Jaybird headphones cost and could have probably bought 2 pairs by now.  We have had bad luck with many of the cheaper brands breaking.
Jaybird Bluetooth headphones have an 8 hour battery life.  They are rechargeable via micro USB so no need to buy any expensive little batteries.  It also will give you a 20 minute warning on your device when your headphones are low and need to be recharged.  Such a nice feature on these headphones!!

Card.com Review

Card.com offers a great product.  Are you looking for a prepaid debit card that is not linked to a checking account?  Maybe a prepaid debit card would be a good option!  Check out what Card.com has to offer.
A Little About Card.com:
  • This card is a debit card, like the one from your bank, and you can use it EVERYWHERE where Visa is accepted.
  • Free to order, activate, and load
  • Free app and check deposits from your smartphone.
  • Free direct deposit
  • Free card-to-card transfers, any time, anywhere, in seconds
  • No overdraft fees because you can never go in the negative
  • Safer than cash - 24/7 support, Visa fraud protection and 100% FDIC insurance on funds
  • No debt, financially responsible, no interst/credit/APRs
  • No credit check and approval in seconds
  • 22,000 in-network ATMs
  • Thousands of cool, unique card designs to choose from, including brands like: Garfield, Popeye, Betty Paige, James Dean, Care Bears, Walking Dead, Star Trek, Autism Awareness, Breast Cancer Research, Shark Week, Where's Waldo, Doodle Jump, Three Stooges, Nancy Drew, and many many more.
  • Free for 30 days - then $5.95 montly fee, which is waived when you direct deposit over $800 in the previous 30 days.  This fee is the same as the Walmart prepaid card and much less than many of the other competitors.  It's also much less than overdrafting your bank account, paying for a checking, or using a credit card.
 
  I really like that they have the option to let you pick your card design from many different options.  I chose the galaxy print for my card.  I thought it was very different and fun rather than my boring old bank debit card.  I also really love the French Couture, Paris, Doodle Jump, and Zorro card designs.
 
 At Card.com they offer a prepaid debit card that is very easy to use.  There are many prepaid debit cards out there.  I have personally used this card and really like the convenience of this card.  This card is very easy to load your money on to.  There are many different options to do so.  I also really like that this card does not have an overdraft.  It is really helpful when you are debt free and want to keep it that way.  It helps with those temptations of the impulse buy to buy things that you really don't have the money for.  It is a lot easier to say no to buying stuff when you know the possibility isn't even there.
My husband and I have worked very hard to become debt free.  We have been debt free for over 2 years now.  That feeling is so freeing.  We no longer use credit cards because there is just too many temptations.  This Card.com option is so great.  It can really help you if you are trying to just get things under control.  Not having an overdraft is huge!!  This helps you not create more debt when you are trying to get out of debt or trying to stay debt free.

If you are looking for another way to help you stay on budget I recommend you check out card.com!!
Check out Card.com and leave a blog post comment telling me your favorite card design!!

Suzie's Kamut Breadsticks & Flatbread Crackers - Review

**I received the featured product free of charge in order to give my honest review.  No other compensation was received.  My thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.** 
Suzie's Brand - Brooklyn, NY 
Suzie's makes many great products as I have already shared some with you.  This is another great product from Suzie's.

A little more about Suzie's

Good Groceries Company under its Suzie's brand has originated products and helped to grow consumer awareness for ancient grains such as KAMUT (R) and Spelt which can be found in their flatbreads, breadsticks, puffed whole grain cakes, thin cakes, and thin wafers.

Suzie's products are sold nationwide in natural, specialty, supermarket, convience, and club stores as well as on the internet at amazon.com and goodgroceries.com.

They are always looking to offer customers healthy, unique, and tasty food products.

Our hope is for you to visit our site regularly to view our latest new products and share the excitement with your family, friends, and co-workers.


Suzie's makes many great snack products.  I have really liked the Suzie's products I have tried in the past so I was excited to have the opportunity to try another great product. 


 I always love the way Suzie's takes the extra time to package their products.  This makes for a fresher product and also helps the product in shipping to not get broken.  These specific crackers were in a plastic tray and had the plastic wrap around the outside. This is a nice gesture especially if you ordered this product online because it would help in the shipping for your product to arrive in a good condition.


 The flavors of Suzie's flatbread we tried were 7 ancient grains & flax flatbread, multi-seed spelt flatbread, and the sesame kamut flatbread.  We also tried the sesame kamut breadsticks.  We gave all these flavors the good ole taste test.   My children weren't too fond about the sesame kamut breadsticks.  I myself thought they were pretty good.  I think they could be even better if I had something to dip them in. :)  The favorite flavor for my children of the flatbread crackers was the 7 ancient grains flavor.  My favorite flavor of the flatbread crackers was the sesame flatbread.  These crackers have a great crunch to them. I really like the texture and flavor of these crackers.  We did try these crackers plain so that we could taste the whole flavor of each cracker.  I would love to try them with a dip of some sort.  I was thinking I would love these crackers with a spinach dip.  The multiseed flatbread flavor had a lot of flavor.  One of the spices included in the multiseed flatbread is caraway seeds.  This gives this particular flavor of crackers a special flavor along with the dried onion flakes, garlic, and sesame seeds.  All these flavors were pretty good.  If you are looking for a great snack that is pretty healthy, find the Suzie's flatbreads or kamut breadsticks and give them a try.

Holiday Gift Guide - Red Cup Living Review and GIVEAWAY

**I was provided the featured product free of charge in order to do an honest review.  No other compensation was received.  My thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.**


A little about Red Cup Living

RED CUP LIVING is a company that was founded when a husband and wife team decided to rekindle their neighborhood’s sense of community by holding more gatherings with… red cups, and the concept of what it stands for, camaraderie, chilling out, hanging at parties, tailgating, relaxing with friends and family

Their mission is to inspire others to get together with friends, family and neighbors to create good times and great memories. There’s no better way to do that than sharing a red cup and conversation. 

No matter what your red cup holds, we say “Cheers!” We encourage you to check out our products and use them for your own patio parties. Who knows the change you could start?

Add Some Extra Holiday Cheer with the Fun, Reusable Red Cups from Red Cup Living




I was very excited to have the opportunity to do a review for RED CUP LIVING.  I am always looking for new products to use around the holiday times.  This product is perfect for those opportunities of getting together with family and friends.  I chose the RED CUP LIVING Mugs to review.


 I really appreciate the courtesy these mugs were packaged with.  These mugs were packed in individual boxes with bubble wrap around each cup. Then they were placed in the larger box all together.  This tight packaging kept the mugs from breaking.  I really appreciated this simple gesture.


These mugs are so perfect for a hot chocolate bar!!  If you are a coffee drinker they would be great for coffee at a party as well.  I myself and family do not drink coffee so the hot chocolate bar it is.  These mugs are made from a thick glass like other mugs are usually made.  RED CUP LIVING mugs just look extra special.  These mugs are so much fun.  It does give you that feel of having a great get together or party.  I really love these mugs.  Red Cup Living mugs are very sturdy and durable.  Of course you wouldn't want to drop them or they could possibly shatter.  I really love that these cups are reusable.  I have a hard time buying things and having to throw it away.  Every time we have a party for my kids birthdays I always feel like I am throwing money away with all the cups that go into the garbage.  My kids were also very excited about these cups and felt very special using them for their hot chocolate.  I look forward to being able to use these cups continually for getting together, and for daily use when cold weather is about.

Holiday Gift Guide - Wigglo Pets Review and GIVEAWAY

**I was provided the product featured free of charge in order to give an honest review.  No other compensation was received.  My thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.**

 

A little about Wigglo Pets

Maya Grace is the founder of Wigglo Pets. Wigglos are pets that create no mess, need no walks, and that you never have to take to the vet. More importantly, though, is that Wigglo Pets respond to your touch. That's right! Just pet your Wigglo and it will wiggle. The pets are handmade by me, soft, cute and adorable (the pets...not me). Your order would be for a packaged adult Wigglo Pet which comes with an adoption paper.

A portion of the sales of Wigglo Pets will be donated to The Santa Barbara Humane Society (Pets Helping Pets). 




The holidays are now starting to near and we are all starting to look for gifts for our kids or loved ones. Wigglo Pets are a simple, small, and easy gift for the holidays.

My kids were very excited to have the opportunity to help me review this product . We are always looking for stuff for our children that helps them use their imagination.



Each Wigglo Pet is individually packaged and comes with its own adoption certificate.



Once seeing how the Wigglo Pet worked my kids were very excited to each have a turn with it.  They were so excited that my daughter was giggling.  My kids also really liked that the Wigglo Pet is made by a child like them.  My son is 9 and thought it was really cool that these pets are made from a girl that is close to his age.  This pet even has even already been given a name.  They were so excited about this simple toy that they gave it a name right away.  It is really fun to see what kinds of things my kids get really excited about.  This Wigglo Pet has inspired the imagination in them.  I really love to watch them when they are playing and using their imagination.



My kids don't usually argue over toys but they have argued a little bit over this one and who's turn it is to play with it on a couple different occasions.



If you would like help a child pull out their own imagination check out Wigglo Pets.  You can also help the Santa Barbara Humane Society by buying a Wigglo Pet.

Wigglo Pets would also make a great stocking stuffer for the holidays!!
