Are You Participating in the Swiffer Giveaway?

If you didn't already know, Swiffer has been giving away duster kits this month. They give out 12,500 two times a week, and they will give out a total of 100,000. The next giveaway is TONIGHT, May 26th. No specific time, but you should be watching out for it. I'll try to keep an eye on it for my page on facebook, but I have so many things to do today.
I managed to get one the first day they gave them out. Then two nights ago they held a giveaway and I signed up all of my relatives that asked me to sign them up for one (because they couldn't be online all of the time, they weren't fast enough at these giveaways, or for other various reasons.)
And on a side note I finally managed to be fast enough for the Scrubbing Bubbles giveaway which is awesome. Been trying each time for that one.

Playtex Sport Body Wipes Review

I am a member of a website called Crowdtap, where you complete actions and answer questions to earn money for gift cards and charity, while letting brands know certain things about a wide variety of people. Sometimes you get to sample products. I was selected to try out, review, and let some of my friends try out the Playtex Sport Body Wipes.
I must admit that at first I was a bit confused at first, as to what they were. When you think of Playtex, you first think of feminine...products. So I had to read what others were saying and I realized the obvious--- they're just body wipes.
The Playtex Sport Body wipes are a quick refresher for anyone who has worked up a sweat or become dirty, whether due to being in a sport or doing any other demanding activites. It saves you the time of having to take a shower to feel clean and refreshed. They have a slight scent of cucumber, and it's not overpowering. I'm sure if guys don't hear the word "Playtex", they would give it a try as well. I was able to get some male friends to try it as well and the opinion was favorable.
Let me honestly save that I love these things. I've used them quite a few times, after my main activities being- taking long walks in the country, or really working out by playing Just Dance 2 on the Wii (yes, I REALLY get into that game). They feel cool when you use them, which is great when you're feeling hot and sweating like crazy. Unlike most body wipes, they don't leave your skin feeling sticky. If anything, it slightly felt like my arms were smoother/softer. The scent is pleasant, but it isn't strong. They do leave you feeling clean.
Some other great things about them would be their size. They can easily be packed in a purse or bag without taking up much room. They are easy to dispose of- you can either flush them (only one wipe at a time though), or throw them in the garbage.
They are definitely a keeper.

My Latest Mail Call

As you can see, my mailbox was a bit full a few days ago when I received:
Nutrition First Pancake and Waffled Mix
Shout Color Catcher
Emergen-C samples along with a coupon and some stickers
Zapzyt Sample
TRESemme bzzkit with shampoo, conditioner, and coupons
Coupon for a free naanwich
and H20 Pure sample

I'm currently trying out the zapzyt sample. Have a few stubborn acne spots that my daily Clearisil routine hasn't gotten rid of yet.
I plan on trying the Nutrition First mix this weekend the morning of our garage sale we're currently setting up. That way I can make my relatives and myself breakfast before the long days ahead of us, and more people will be able to sample it and give their opinion.
The TRESemme is an ongoing thing. I'll post a review in a few days, hopefully.

Have You Joined Recycle Bank?

This is a website that allows you to earn points while learning about basically "going green", and you can also earn points by buying certain products that have codes on them. The points you earn can be used towards coupons, gift cards, or % off certain purchases at places.
So far I've gotten coke coupons, coupons for free pistachios, and coupons for free cat food. In fact, I just used the $1/any Coke product to get a 2 liter bottle of Sprite for free at Target, where Coke 2 liters cost $1.
The site isn't too hard to figure out and it doesn't take up a whole lot of your time to complete activities or take quizzes for points.
I only ask that if you wish to join, you use my referral link below, because I get 10 points for everyone that registers because of me. You might need to copy and paste it. Thanks!
