Product Reviews by Me

My husband and my 2 boys love chocolate milk.  Me not as much but I like to try new foods and drinks.  Well, thanks to the drinking chocolate milk monsters in this house, I was fortunate enough to get one glass of the Horizon Low Fat Chocolate Milk.  Need I tell you that my picky husband refuses to drink Low Fat Milk but he liked this before he knew it was low-fat so…hahahaha!

And, how about some links for more good information?

First of all, I’m carry out the rules of the FTC and telling you that yes indeed, I did get a flatiron from Misikko and if you have ever read any of my blog, you know that my dang hair is a major pain to deal with.  So, when I found out I was getting a pink fllatiron, I was definitely shaking my fits at the heaves saying “thank you” a girl product in this house, take that star wars and shoot ‘em up, blow ‘em up games.  I have a pink flat iron.

What does a pink flat iron look like?  Just check it out…

And, just so you remember, you can win one of these if you hurry.  Go to I have really bad hair, and products really do matter Go now and enter the contest.  But, come back and let me tell you some more…because yes, there is more!!!!!

Let’s talk about the other great items that showed up in my box.  Sure, the flat iron was a huge hit.  I also got

• 1 two-ounce bottle of Hana Shine Shield
• One tube of Dana Michelle lip gloss
• One heat mat to lie the iron on and a traveling case for the flat iron.
• And, yes, there was a case to use when packing up the iron to travel.
• Finally, there was one more important piece item in the box…it was hand sanitizer and fingernail files in a pretty satin bag..tooo cute…

All of it is so lady like!  I love it!

i also received a blank check to make out to a charity of my choice.  And since son’s school sends notes home asking for paper towels and baby wipes for the classrooms.

I am trying to keep my product reviews here pretty scientific.  Meaning that, if you wanna read about how my family devoured the POM juice, you can read the post Pomegranate – POM Wonderful on Mom~E~Centric.  And, if you want some more information, this is the place to get it.

For instance, POM Wonderful is the only juice guaranteed to contain 100% authentic pomegranate juice.  That basically confirms that it the juice is all natural and no sugar, preservatives, colors or cheap filler juices are added.

Pomegranate has a nice little history too.  The fruit was one of mankind’s earliest cultivated fruits and many scholars suggest that it was the pomegranate, not an apple, depicted in the biblical Garden of Eden.  And, many cultures believe that pomegranate holds mythical healing powers.

So, if you are wondering, yes indeed, I received some POM Wonderful to try out but you also know that I’m open and honest and my reviews aren’t reflective of the fact that I obtained something solely for the purpose of saying something nice.  I just give you the facts about the juice as they pertain to my family and what I have found online or that has been provided to me by the company.  So, there you go, give it a try, my kids loved it and my husband and I barely even got to give a try because they managed to drink it up faster than we could get our hands on a bottle.

In all FTC considerations, know that I have already written my post on this matter and you can find it at OxiClean = Boys?  I’m just sure of it and OxiClean Max Force Power Pak and OxiClean Max Force Gel Stick all with full

This time, I’m writing just for the pure sake of telling you that this stuff is amazing and I haven’t even received any more for “free”.  Just so you know, this story is real and in full Campaign style, “it has been approved by me!”. Ha, I crack myself up.

Anyway, while we were in Disney, my five-year-old was sporting a brand new white shirt.  And we left Disney with a brand new white shirt that had some type of juice stain, some form of tomato paste stain and some form of stain that I am still clueless about.  We arrived home on Monday and as I try to remember exactly when he wore the shirt…I’m thinking it was maybe Friday night.

Anyway, here we are a week later and fully had no intention of scrubbing this shirt like a mad woman to get it clean.  If it came clean with a little pre-treatment of the Gel Stick, then so be it, if not, tough luck, it was a cheap shirt in the first place and honestly, I didn’t see anyway it would come clean regardless of what I tried.

So, I gelled it up and put it in the washer.  I gelled the matching shirt that belonged to my seven-year-old.  His shirt wasn’t quite as stained but I put the OxiClean gel stick on it and left it for a bit before tossing all of the items in the wash.

I pulled them out and checked for stains, just for giggles, because really, I wasn’t about to scrub and gone….just like that, stain-be-gone and mommy-be-happy!

Just thought I’d throw that in there…….I wish I had made a photo of it because really, spaghetti something another, red juice and something un-identifiable?  Yea, for reals!

Actually I have been here posting a bit o’ this and bit o’ that.  I’ve got contests and I’ve got video’s but let me tell you about a few other folks I know.

As you know, I’m headed to Orlando next week for the Social Media Moms Celebrate Disney and since I’m headed that way, I might as well get there in style, right?

And, with that, General Motors will be delivering this beauty to my house on Monday of next week (and let’s all pray my husband cleans up the front deck and lawn before then)

I mean, really, you can catch it all here because we will be live streaming it.  If something bigger happens (and trust me, it might), it may or may not be streamed on Facebook an/or UStream.  So, keep up, follow the Twitter feed @The_Jerri_Ann and @GMBlogs

And, you know, the goodness just get’s better around here.  I’m getting some new hot designer business cards for this event too….wait to you see me break out these bad boys…

And for those of you at the conference, the goodies just keep getting better…….

I’ve got temporary badges for your children’s safety from My Precious Kid and right now she has these awesome new car seat ID cards you need to check out too.

So, if you catch me in time, you can have a safety bracelet for your kiddos to sport at Disney.

I’m also going to be sporting this awesome T-shirt……I’ve been working with these folks and I love it…

And really ya’ll, can you say awesome awesome awesome!  And, there’s more…..yea for real, there’s more!

I have some of these…

I have one Otterbox to give away for someone with an iPhone.

I have one of these for the iPhone…

And, I have one of these for the iPhone

And, I have a cover like this if you have a BlackJack II

And, honestly, you never ever ever know what else I might come up with???

Like maybe….some Vital Earth Traditions…..????  you think that would work?

I have already discussed this a couple of time and you can read it.  Otterbox, Otterbox, I got an Otterbox

But what is the topic that I have in mind?  My iPhone and the great and wonderful Otterbox covers that I received.  Not only was Otterbox kind enough to give me the chance to use the Otterbox cover for my iPhone and reap the benefits of the cover but..they were kind enough to let me give one to my reader. 

And, then when i asked for one to give away in a private giveaway for my son’s teacher’s at Christmas, they were right there to support me again. 

Thanks Otterbox!  You really are the number one cover out there…I mean, you know, if you ask me.

Because, yes, I did receive one but trust me, I wouldn’t tell you these kind of things for you to believe me and get one and then break your phone within days of purchasing it..because…well, that’s what I did and well that’s what I do a lot….so there….
