Smelly Washer Review and Giveaway


With a houseful of four kids and two parents we do a lot of laundry. We wash and wash and wash and get so burned out on it sometimes we leave the laundry in the washer a little bit too long ( ok days sometimes). Well when that happens clothes get a funky smell. Come on people you know that smell. Anyways I was sent a bottle of Smelly Washer cleaner to try and it couldn't have come at a better time.
My oldest son plays football and the middle son plays baseball so their clothes really stink. They stink really bad. I think that stink makes my washer and the clothes I wash in there a little stinky too!
Since I am on laundry duty today (it's pouring outside so I have no excuse) I decided to try it out. I am impress it really does work. The funky smell is gone. So if you have stinky washing machine check them out for yourself.
From the website:
Smelly Washer Inc. was the first seller of washing machine odor remover. We are now competing with large, corporate manufacturers but still enjoy the status of being the only all natural washer cleaner available and the only clothes washer cleaner that also guarantees to remove mildew odor from towels and clothing after it cleans the washer! Another plus is that Smelly Washer Cleaner has 24 treatments compared to 1-3 for our competitors! That's enough for UP TO 1 YEAR of a mold and odor free washer, towels and clothing.
Smelly Washer Cleaner is $16.99 + $5.00 for handling

ValueRays® PINK Warm Mouse III Review



I was recently sent a ValueRays® PINK Warm Mouse III to review. First thing I noticed was the pink ribbon etched into the mouse. A portion of each purchase of the Pink ValueRays® Warm Mouse III will be donated to the American Cancer Society's Fight Against Cancer!



I opened the package and hooked it up to my computer. It took just a few seconds of using it before it started warming my hand. What a difference the heat makes if you're on the computer for a while. I have had bilateral carpal tunnel surgery and this mouse really helps.
The only downfall of this mouse is that it is not wireless.

Information from the website:
ValueRays® Warm Mouse III is a large Ergonomic Multi-Function Infrared Heated Mouse. Infrared Heat + Large Ergo Shape is healthy for the mouse hand. The ValueRays® Warm Mouse III is a healthy addition to your ergonomic work area. Use the computer to work for you, not harm you.

The mouse retails for $39.95 but is on sale for $29.95 with no sales tax and free shipping.

Holey Gourment Donuts Review



Low Fat donuts?? I mean come on people I have tried some of the pre-packaged 100 calorie donuts from the grocery store and they are 100 calories because they are tiny. When Holey Donuts contacted me and asked if I would like to review their cinnamon rolls, I jumped at the chance.

They sent me three flavors to try:
Jumbo Reduced Fat Cinnamon Buns
Reduced Fat Blueberry Vanilla Cinnamon Buns
Low Fat Cinnamon Bun Middles



While I enjoyed all of them my favorite was the Jumbo Reduced Fat Cinnamon Buns. I placed one on my plate and heated it for a few seconds in the microwave. After my first bite I was in awe. They taste decadent, I would have never known it was lowfat. It has a lot of cinnamon , just the way I like it. With the perfect amount of icing drizzled over it. It was more of a dense cinnamon roll than a fluffy one from the donut shop. On a scale of 1-10 I would give it a 10!

Here is some nutritional information:


They have all kinds of donuts and pastries to choose from!
These would be great to order and take to work to share with your co-workers. Or to just order a box for your freezer and warm them up whenever the urge hits.

So next time you need to bring "donuts" to the office check out Holey Donuts

The Snowman’s Song Book Review



I just wanted to pop in and let you all know about the cutest little snowman book I just reviewed. The book is called The Snowman's Song: A Christmas Story
Story by Marilee Joy Mayfield and Illustrations by Tracy La Rue Hohn.



The story is about this snowman who wants to sing Christmas carols to celebrate the season but is unable to as he has no voice. It's an uplifting story about believing in yourself and shows miracles do come true.

I highly recommend this book to all ages. This is a beautiful bedtime story to share with your child.

The book retails for $19.95 but is on sale for $16.95 here.

Yoplait Kids Yogurt "Less Sugar, More Fun" Prize Pack Giveaway



Thanks to the folks at My Blog Spark, I was given the oppurtunity to review a Yoplait Less Sugar, More Fun prize pack to review. I picked up a box of Trix less sugar yogurt pack. My one year old and 15 year old enjoyed them. I did try one myself and it tasted yummy. I wouldn't have even known that it was made with less sugar as it tasted great. To make it even yummier I added fresh fruit to my daughters. I liked the size of the container for my one year old, but for the fifteen year old it was 2 small.


From the website " Are you searching for a snack for the kids that tastes good and is good for them? Yoplait Kids yogurt is the perfect solution with 25% less sugar than the leading kids’ yogurt. With its thick and creamy texture that will hug your little one’s spoon, you won’t have to worry about a sticky mess to clean up afterwards. It also contains no artificial sweeteners or flavors, so you can feel good about serving it to your kids.
In addition, Yoplait Kids is a good source of vitamin D and, according to two new studies that provide the first national assessment of the crucial nutrient in young Americans, millions of U.S. children have disturbingly low vitamin D levels, possibly increasing their risk for a variety of health concerns, including bone problems. About 7.6 million children, adolescents, and young adults have vitamin D levels so low they could be considered deficient. It can be challenging for growing kids to get enough vitamin D because this nutrient is only found naturally in very few foods; however Yoplait Kids makes it a little easier to incorporate a delicious source of vitamin D and calcium in your child’s diet."






Thanks to My Blog Spark I have TWO Yoplait gift packs to giveaway to TWO Simply Me readers.

Your Yoplait Less SugarPrize pack includes the following:

1.coupon for a Yoplait Kids yogurt
2.travel cooler
3.spoon that changes colors in warm water
4.bendy puzzle and a placemat
