Cart-Stopper - Review & Giveaway! (CLOSED)

Are you asking yourself the same thing I did? What is a cart-stopper? Well if you are one that deals with run-away carts then this might just be for you.

The Cart-Stopper is a handy little device that connects your shopping cart to your vehicle so you don't have to worry about it running away with your groceries or worse - your children. How it works is with a heavy duty suction cup that sticks to a clean flat surface on your vehicle while the the latch connects to your cart. It really does work if your asking yourself that question and it's pretty simple to use. I tried this out and though simple to use I'm not sure how often I would actually use it, especially in the cold. Don't tell my husband but I usually just cram my cart next to my car (oops) and get both my children out at the same time, but I have had to deal with my cart escaping because of the wind which is totally annoying. I absolutely think though if you are looking for something to help out with this, and from Dyanne experience from My Lil Monkeys (the inventor of the Cart-Stopper) she definitely is happy to have this. You can read more on the Lil Monkey Blog.
My Lil' Monkey's and the Cart-Stopper have won some great awards and got great approval for this product. Order your Cart-Stopper now.

Pedipeds - Giveaway! (CLOSED)

With the new Spring / Summer '09 on it's way out it always gets me excited to browse and get ready for cute sandals for the kids. As you may have read in the previous post about Pediped's Sneak Peek, they are having a great selection of sandals that are coming out - for sure something you are going to want to get your hands on.

I have been very happy with the pediped shoes we have and will continue to get them as they are good for my children's feet and the selection is great. You can read my pediped review here.

Pedipeds are have been accepted from the American Podiatric Medical Association. This is good information that you can never hear to much. - "According to the American Podiatric Medical Association, "Allowing the youngster to go barefoot or to wear just socks helps the foot to grow normally and to develop its musculature and strength as well as the grasping action of the toes." Doctors also recommend that children first learning to walk go barefoot or wear soft flexible shoes. Walking around barefoot is not always practical, as little feet need protection from rough surfaces and dirty floors. Soft-soled shoes provide the health benefits of being barefoot, with the added protection of a padded sole." Read more here about why you should choose Pedipeds.

Win It!

Pedipeds would like to give one Momma In Flip Flops2 reader a pair of pedipeds originals in your choice male or female and the specific size you would like (0-24months). They will pick the style you get. To Enter.

*Let me know the pedipeds you like the best and another shoe brand you love.

Seriously if I were to guess how much something like this was - it would have been 3x's what they have for pricing. The things they have to choose from are amazing too - I had such a hard time picking out something because I wanted everything and thought of all these places everything would look amazing in my home. After ordering mine and getting it up - my husband was so impressed he even said we needed to add some to our other rooms. I chose the Welcome sign in white for my door. I had to add a picture of it because I love it so much. I keep sneaking looks at it (while freezing from opening the door) because I love it that much. It was super easy to put on and the instructional video on the site is great. I honestly would recommend these to anyone!

Scribble It has tons of things to offer - Attitude, Front Door sayings, car decals, Home and Family, Inspirational, Religious Monograms, Vintage, Wall Art and much, much more. Cammi is so nice to work with as well - she wants it to look and work great for you, which is so nice to find in a business. Not to mention they make custom work for you.

Country Bob's - Review & Giveaway! (CLOSED)

I'm definitely a barbecue sauce type of girl. I really could eat it on most anything! My family is always up for trying a new kind of sauce as well - something to dip in is always yummy. We were excited to try Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce!

Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce spoke to our taste buds - yummy! Good on pretty much everything and has a delicious flavor. Honestly we aren't all that picky when it comes to sauces, but this gave a delightful flavor that not only my husband and I enjoyed, but our children as well. I honestly cannot wait to get the grill started and use it on all of our outdoor cooking favorites. I would definitely recommend Country Bob's sauce and would love to try the others - spicy, seasoning salt and the barbecue sauce. I don't think anyone would be disappointed. =)

I really like how Country Bob's thanks God for all that they have and have done. It's not everyday you read about a company who has it stated on their homepage as well as there about you page. Read more here. Is your mouth watering for something delicious with some Country Bob's Sauce on top?

Mustela - Review!

Awhile back I did a review on the Mustela, Stelaprotect skin line and was very happy with the samples I received. I was able to review more of the Mustela skin products on myself and family.

I got some great samples to try out - unfortunately with samples is that you don't get to see how they work long term. However for short term, I've been happy and satisfied. =) Some of my favorite samples was the Massage Oil - I love a back rub (especially when I'm pregnant), it was gentle and soft. It didn't leave me feeling really greasy or cause break outs like some massage oil does. I also liked the No-Rinse cleansing fluid. I mostly used this for on the go clean ups. The only bad thing is that it's a pour bottle and I tended to dump too much out. The Facial Cream I am still using - it's thick and works well on myself. It's kept my face clear of dry areas so far and I like the smell. We received many more like the milk bath, stretch mark remedy, post baby lotions (haven't used those yet), as well as other lotions and rinses. I do like the Mustela lines, but I gave it the ultimate test with my daughters skin. She really broke out this winter, her back literally looked like someone took a whip to her and her shoulders were itching so badly that they started to bleed. Nothing I got touched it. These are good for everyday use and to maintain, but we didn't get anything to really heal what had already happened. (Note - I did find something and she was almost completely healed in three days!)

Be sure to check out what Mustela has to offer for the intolerant sensitive skin and definitely the Parents Corner, which I think is helpful. I would love to know what you use for difficult skin. What works for you? Have you found anything yet?

Marshalls - Review & Giveaway! - (CLOSED)

I am all about finding stores that have super deals and great products. I about flipped a lid to have the opportunity to review the Marshalls store and products. I had heard of Marshalls before but have never taken the time to actually go into one and browse around.

My experience was less enjoyable than what I anticipated it. I am not sure if all Marshalls are the same but the one I visited wasn't all that appealing. It was dirty and very cluttered - but I dove in with a smile and was ready to find some amazing bargains. Being the shoe person I am - that's exactly where I headed while my husband ventured to the small toy section with the kids. There was a pretty big selection of shoes for woman and lots of name brands, the prices were good but I wasn't super impressed. The clearance made me excited though - an entire wall of shoes for $6. Find a pair you want and pray they had your size. I was also excited to find Robeez shoes for less than half the regular price - if my daughter wasn't out of the soft soled shoes and I knew what gender my next baby was I would have been stocking up. I also liked they had lots of Stride Rite shoes, all my son can wear with having large feet. We will definitely be checking there in the future for shoes. The clothing section was overwhelming to me, the clothing was packed tightly and hard to even pull something out. With a lot of time and patience though you would be able to find something good at a great price. The coats were at a great price and after sifting through them I was wishing to be thin again because I had a stock pile. Did I ever mention I have a coat obsession? Marshalls also had home decor, accessories, kitchen gadgets, bedroom things, sports apparel, children, men's, seasonal and more. You did have to check out what you were going to buy for rips and tears. It seemed like a lot of things were seconds, marked down to sell. My tip - take your time and you are going to find some great name brand products at discount prices!

Even though my experience wasn't great; I hope it was just the Marshalls I went too. I will be visiting again to check it out again and hopefully another in a different town, especially for those hot deals on shoes. What's your experience? I also had the chance to review T.J. Maxx, but not knowing our closed down, and I thought I would share. You can shop On-Line!

Win It!

I have a $25 Gift Certificate to T.J. Maxx for one Momma In Flip Flops2 reader! To enter.

Audeo Earphones - Review!

Everyone has mp3 players, ipods and what not anymore. I feel like if you don't have one then you're like falling behind on technology or something - but just to get the record straight, it's my hubby who's got one here, not the mommy of the house! My hubby was thrilled to review the Audeo Earphones - for a more intense music experience (and let me tell you - he's all about music.)

My hubby reviewed the Audéo Perfect Fit Earphones and thought with using the different filters for sound style was a unique feature, easy to change but didn't make that big of a difference. The cord works well if you are jogging and have your player on your arm, but for sitting at a desk with the cord in your computer it's not long enough. The earphones are comfortable and with the different size adjustments you are sure to find a good fit and won't fall out when jogging. These earphones block all outside noise, which he thought was great if you have no reason to hear other noises! Overall he thought these were good.

You can purchase and read more about these at Phonak . A little bit of information from Audeo, and Phonak -

"The Audéo earphones are the first consumer-ready device launched by Phonak, and if there is anyone that understands the human ear - it's them!

Audéo provides exceptional comfort and top-notch sound quality without sacrificing the health of your ears, allowing users better control of listening levels by isolating sound.

There has been a growing buzz about the link between mp3 players and hearing loss. Recently, the European Union issued a warning to its citizens regarding the potential risk of hearing loss associated with unsafe listening levels of mp3 players. A study conducted by EU scientists suggests that between 2.5 million and 10 millions Europeans could be at risk. The study has implications in the U.S. as millions of Americans are not aware of the dangers of listening to levels over 89 decibels."

Sunglass Warehouse - Review & Giveaway! (CLOSED)

I love a cute pair of sunglasses, just another accessory to make you look fabulous and they're good for your eyes. I was super excited to find out about Sunglass Warehouse because they have stylish sunglasses at one heck of a discounted price.

Before I had kids I remember finding the perfect pair of sunglasses, spending the extra money on them and they never got ruined. Now, however with my little sunglasses lovers for children I just can't bring myself to spend a lot of money on a pair when I know the chances of them getting ruined it far greater than before. I usually just grab a pair that look good at Wal-mart and occasionally the dollar store. However, that will not be the case anymore because Sunglass Warehouse has sunglasses at a better price than Wal-Mart (if you're getting anything with style - in my opinion) and they look amazing! I absolutely LOVE the pair I got. I'm still into the over sized craze and the pair I have (pictured) look so good, have a unique twist look to them and are only $15.95. What? Plus they come in five different colors. They look hot! They have a great selection for men and woman and there are so many good looking ones for whatever your style you are going to have a hard time picking out a pair. Don't let yourself settle for those cheaper glasses that don't look fabulous. Sunglass Warehouse has what you want at a great price!!! Don't forget Free Shipping on orders over $25.

Enter to win a FREE Vacation worth $3000 right now at Sunglass Warehouse. Who couldn't use that right? I know with how cold and nasty it's been here I'd jump on the chance to get out of here. The vacation is being given away on February 17th, so be sure to get entered. Click here!

Milkbomb - Review & Giveaway! (CLOSED)

Doesn't that name just get you wondering what it's all about? It did me anyway. Milkbomb offers unique tee's and snap suits for your little boy or girl with sassy attitude.

I really like the tee shirt I have for my son from Milkbomb. It's super soft, and the fit is absolutely fantastic. The letters have yet to fade, no shrinking and it's one of his favorites because he is obviously rockin' with attitude. Ha ha ha! I don't particularly like all the shirts, but some are definitely cute and I would think you would be able to find something that suits your child's attitude. Sizes go up all the way to 6T, so maybe something for the older child? I like shirts that are just a little big longer, they don't ride up and you can wear them under shirt better.

Check out Milkbomb and let me know which saying you like.

Swami Baby Boutique - Review & Giveaway! (CLOSED)

I love hip, stylish clothes but I really love something cute and comfortable at the same time. Not just for myself, but for my children as well. Swami Baby has just that; Yogo inspired infant and adult clothing.

I was able to review the toddler clothing as well as the adult and I was thrilled with both. My daughter got the cutest shirt that fit's great, is super soft and didn't shrink. I absolutely love her little yogo pants she got, I really want a pair of those for myself - especially with being pregnant. They are so cute, soft and comfortable. I got the hooded sweatshirt and it's so soft and comfortable. It's long too so I don't have to worry about it riding up and showing midriff, or making me cold in the winter. I love it!

Swami Baby has great clothing for woman - shirts, hoodies and pants. Children - caps, shirts, onesies, pants and more. I like the yogo inspired feel too and it looks so natural. Definitely check out too the custom embroidery for kids - cute! Katie is the owner of Swami Baby and is super nice to work with. "Swami Baby is a clothing line for infants and toddlers designed to give voice to our wise little ones.
As a yoga teacher and mother of three, I began to see that kids already possess much of what we as adults are striving to achieve; they have the innate ability to live in the present, to take time to enjoy life, to be aware of their surroundings, and to be direct." Read more about Swami Baby here.

Paula Deen Candles - Review!

I'm a candle lover; seriously I have a candle burning somewhere everyday. It's tricky now I have kids, I have to have them pushed back and up high so we don't have a fire. I even have candles in our fire place, it makes it look so lovely. I wanted to introduce you to Paula Deen's Candles.

I first discovered these at Wal-Mart, they weren't that expensive and since I'm used to buying just Yankee Candle, but was sick of the price anymore I thought I'd give these a whirl. I love them! They burn long and have some yummy scents. Then I had the opportunity to test a beautiful candle from the Paula Deen company and it was even more scrumptious. I definitely recommend trying these out - small, medium, or large. They smell and look great. Not just regular candle jars, but have a cute little country twist to them with a cute handle and all. They're cute to sit around.

They are not available on Paula Deen's site; or at least I was unable to find them. You can purchase them at selected Wal-Marts, Giving Gallery.com, and Linen N Things! If you do try them, I'd love to know what you think.

Mineral Concepts - Review & Giveaway!

I will admit I'm not one that goes a day without make up. Pretty much everyday I have it on - it makes me feel good and look great. I'm not really one to go out and spend a fortune on make up though. I have my definite favorites and have been with them for several years. It does help when I have several sisters who are all the same way. We all use and test and let the others know which is great. When I had the chance to review Carol Jeanne - Mineral Concept make up I was thrilled.

I've heard rave reviews about the natural mineral make up but the thought of going and purchasing it was a bit overwhelming. After all I already had make up I liked, why bother with something new. I was wrong! This make up is absolutely amazing and reviewing it while having a horrible complexion from being pregnant, it has really proven itself to me. I received the sampler kit to try and after just a few times and a few questions that were gladly answered from Carol Jeanne I feel pretty good at it. It definitely takes a little practice and a great brush, but once you got that down it's easy peasy. I'd love to try the Velvet Matte for those with more of an oily face, I have that problem right now - dry and oily at the same time. Ugh! I love how fresh my face feels with using this product, at first I was getting to much on (it doesn't take much) but afterwards the small amount you use does excellent coverage and really does hide blemishes. I couldn't be more happy and would definitely recommend to others.

Carol Jeanne - Mineral Concepts has tons to offer and lots of colors to help match your skin. She's excellent to work with and answers your questions with great suggestions. Check out all Mineral Concepts has to offer and I suggest trying a sampler kit to see just how great this maybe for you.

Win It!

Remember the fabulous giveaway I did for Handbag Planet? Well Handbag Heaven is part of Handbag Heaven and I have some fabulous things to say about them as well.

Handbag Heaven has discount handbags and purses that look amazing. High fashion without that big price. You can get pretty much whatever you want, all the way from large to really small, colors, styles, etc. The site is set up great and being able to shop by price is great as well. I was absolutely thrilled to find this site and can't wait to do more shopping with them in the future.
