Miracle Whip, MiO, and EveryDay with Rachel Ray...

     Hello everyone, how is the samples department going? I'm sorry if they aren't getting to your doorstep fast enough; I completely know the disappointing feeling. I wish I could get them faster to your door, but I have no control, although I really wish I did. Any who, one of the reasons why I was saying this was because I had a friend ask me how long it takes for samples to get to your address and like all of us, he wanted them to get there faster, but either way, he is still going to order some. Yay! Another member of the free samples club.
     I know you guys don't really need to know what I'm doing, but I will still share. I'm sitting down on my bed in my room while my boyfriend is playing Operation Raccoon City right next to me. Oh well, at least I have something to do while he's distracted a bit.
Now, to the real samples of the night.

     I got 2 sample packets for Miracle Whip. I believe the offer is still being given out if you click the link where it says "Miracle Whip." I think I received my free sample from there and if you notice, you could also send your friends free samples! I... honestly prefer Miracle Whip in salads, specially potato salad. I use a bit of "original" mayonnaise, a spoon of Miracle Whip, some mustard and a bit of salt and pepper. I don't know, that is just me. Speaking about potato salad, now I want some. Maybe at the park, with some sandwiches and iced tea or lemonade! Mmmmm. Now I am more hungry than I already was! Waaaaaaah! Oh well, maybe a sandwich will await me once I am done writing this blog, you know, as a reward?
     And speaking about things or more like, drinks that can go along with your sandwich and other meals and also in the lemonade- sorts of department, why don't we pair all that up with some MiO Liquid Water Enhancer? Just like, this one!

Yup! I got my sample in the mail not so long ago and as you can tell, I hope, I was really, really happy! Why? LOOK at the thing! It's an actual product sized bottle! How much more freaking amazing is that?!

That and I'm sorry, but I had to try it right away. My mom doesn't like it just because she says it's just paint! And well, even though I do agree, I have to say that I did like it, but that for me, it leaves me wanting more, or even more thirsty. Is that a good thing? I love the flavor: Blueberry Lemonade; it's sweet, and you don't have to put too much in it. (My boyfriend got the Lemonade flavor. That one is a bit more acidic, but it's sweet at the same time, but that one you do have to put enough to make it more sweet. We both liked it, but I'd much more prefer to get other flavors to try.)
     The second biggest surprise that I got was the "EveryDay with Rachel Ray" magazine. I... "grew up" watching Rachel Ray's 30- Minute Meals. (I say "grew up" because she's not old, and I was already a teen obviously, but her show was really fun and you learned shortcuts to meals that would only take, about 30 minutes.) I had gotten home late from being out of the house and when I did come home, I noticed the magazine last out the pile of free stuff, but I was sooooo excited.

     The magazine is PACKED with recipes, many of which I've always wanted to try. Specially now that we're in summer and that it's time to get the grill out which I absolutely love to use. That, and even though you have the recipes, you can change some of the ingredients for cheaper ones or just to mess around with the taste. It'd be nice and smart if this magazine, or any other food magazines came with coupons. (Just saying!) But I can't complain; I got this one for free! I actually think I got a whole year free. I just hope I don't get a surprise bill at the end and them make me subscribe to the second year! I'm broke! I never even get magazines for the same reason that they are pricey, but this one is worth it!
     So there you go; all the samples I received! Hope you guys liked this post and thanks once again for reading!

Samples/ Reviews & Everything in Between

.Emergen-C, Versace Yellow Diamond, and Poise.

     Hello guys. The samples department has been a bit faster these 2 weeks, which is surprising, but really great for me because I get to tell you guys about the latest samples and give you more offers here, on my Facebook page. But if you're reading this on the quickness, then here you go.

     As you can see, the words Emergen-C are written on what to me seems like a wallet. It was actually quite a nice little package. I'm a sucker for "cute" things, I mean, I am a girl! Either way, I had heard about Emergen-C before, about how it was obviously packed with Vitamin C and  how it was supposed to fill you with a bunch of energy, somehow naturally. I haven't really tried it, but am looking forward to, specially because I've been feeling nasty. That sounds weird, but what I mean is that I don't feel as energized as I used to and am hoping I could feel like that again. And what better way than to try the samples, right?

     So, as far as samples go, I got 2! One is the orange one which is of "Super Orange" flavor. It's got "nutrients, vitamins, antioxidants and electrolytes and enhances your energy."
The blue packet is the Emergen-C Immune+ system support with Vitamin D. It's of "Blueberry Acai" flavor.
These two sure do sound good though. And they are supposed to help our body and immune system? Sign me up! By the way, they are STILL giving out free samples!!! I didn't know until I was visiting their website a couple of hours back. Click here for your free samples!

     I know you can't really tell, and I am sorry about the quality of the picture, but that to the right is the Versace Yellow Diamond perfume sample I received in the mail. THIS is how ALL perfume samples should be, not like the other perfume samples I first reviewed when beginning to write my blog. I don't know if you read my last blog about the Target beauty sample, but in that now I have all my make up and this little Versace perfume is in it as well. It smells really good. It is a little perfume spray, if you will and in my opinion, it seems like they really want people to buy their product if they're sending samples in little sprays! They sure convinced me!

     Okay, honestly, I didn't know what these were until I received the samples these are for Poise pads, but not for what you think, unless you already knew what Poise pads were. These type of pads are for women who suffer from "light bladder leakage." You know, how sometimes someone you know might tell you that when they laugh or feel like they have to go, but can't and have to hold it, there's a bit of a leakage problem coming from their bladder? Yeah, for that problem. I honestly did not know because if you click on the link above that reads "Poise," you will see how they ask, "What absorbency do you currently use?" and well, I didn't pay attention to the "LbL" tab above and just filled out the form. But it's okay. Maybe someone who needs it might need it and I'd be able to give them these, no?

Emergen-C

     There you go; the three latest samples that I received.

I hope you guys liked this entry. Remember, as far as I know, the Emergen- C and Poise samples are still being given out and you can find the forms on the links pasted in the writings above, so enjoy! As far the Versace perfume, no more samples are being given out. Sad, but there are more samples in the world, just like there are more fish in the sea, remember?

Target Beauty Bag: the 2nd best thing I've gotten!

I received the 2nd best thing in the mail a couple of days ago. 2nd because the first best thing I ever got, specially from the samples department, was the P&G BrandSaver pack I received, where I got one of the best shampoos ever! I also liked it because I thought it was well sorted. A few days ago though, I received a box that looked like this:                          
                                                                              " Beauty for every body."

And those surrounding those words are little Target signs every where, all over the box. I was trying to remember what I had ordered from Target and it didn't hit me until I opened the box. Then, it was when I found this:




That, to the right, is a Target beauty bag they were giving out as free samples! I never knew what they were actually giving out and what the bags contained, but I was really happy when I opened it. For one, I LOVE the bag. (I needed a much smaller cosmetics bag and this one was free and looks of good quality...) Second, it was filled with goodies!
So, upon opening it, I found these:

•  The first little bottle is for Neutrogena Visibly Bright. This product is a daily wash that is supposed to "transform dull, tired skin to visibly bright and   refreshed." It is a 0.5 fl. oz. bottle. 
• The second bottle is Nivea Extended Moisture Hand Creme. It is a 1.5 fl. oz. bottle. It really does leave your hands feeling soft.
• The third and last bottle that is shown is a sample of Pantene;s Color Preserve- Volume Shampoo. I love Pantene. (I think I've already said it a lot of times and how I fell in love with their Aqua Light Shampoo.) Like I mentioned in my previous post, I don't die my hair, but my mom does, so maybe she'll like it. 

The item that was taking much of the space was the

packet to the right. These are Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes. It is a little packet that comes with an 8 count of wipes. I actually used one of these and it really removed all of my make up without making it hard for me or having me to keep scraping at my face for my water proof mascara to be removed. It was gentle and seemed to not have done harm to my skin. I also went to CVS and noticed that these wipes and the Refreshing Facial Wash Gel are sold for $2.99 each. But I didn't have to pay for both of them; I received both of them for free! 

(The wipes I actually kept in my Target bag, now my cosmetic bag, along with the Nivea hand lotion, a hand sanitizer bottle, my eye curler, mascara, eye liner, compact mirror and small comb.)

     This is actually the last sample that was given away in the beauty bag. It is a L'Oreal Magic Lumi Primer. I don't really use foundation, or anything on my skin. The only real make up I use is eyeliner and mascara. Honestly, I don't even know much about this product, so I have to do much more research. 

   And last but not least, the last thing that came along with all these samples. The little picture shown is actually a coupons booklet. And, in the first page, $2 off my favorite mascara! Of course I will use!

     I hope you guys enjoyed this post. I didn't write of anymore products because I didn't want it to get too lengthy, and it helps to be able to write more on my next blog!

Astroglide, Tums, cloSYS, Fekkai

I feel weird because I have not been writing for a good while. I wish I could hurry the samples, but I can't. Today I received 3 in a single day, which has not been happening too often. I was able to save a few samples over the past few weeks, enough for me to write a well written blog. I hope you guys enjoy this one.

     I'm going to start with probably a rather controversial sample for some people. I had to give it a try because I wanted to know if the company was really serious in sending these samples. I still have to wait for what they could and should be used with: condoms. But more on that later on. The sample I got was this:
Yup. This is Astroglide's All Natural Personal Lubricant. REMEMBER: Practice safe sex. This is parable with condoms, so if you want to try something new, I'm guessing this is a good product.
     What a way to break the ice, huh? Well, in that case, let's keep moving on to the next product!

     This little packet contains two Tums Freshers antacid and fresh breath tablets. I haven't tried these yet, mainly because I don't suffer from heartburn; at least, I don't think I do. In any case, it's a good thing to keep around just in case people are not feeling all that well with the food they ate.
     Now, these Freshers are supposed to also refresh your breath, not only soothe or help you heartburn. They come in mint flavor. But another product that I got in the mail was this one:
cloSYS mouthwash. From what I read in the packet sample, it contains no alcohol, so you do not get the

burning sensation you get with other mouth wash. It also eliminates bad breath germs and protects from them for about 8 hours. Who does not want both of those things, right?! I honestly want to try it as soon as possible, but right now I'm content with the Scope mouthwash we purchased not too long ago. I will let you know what I think about it as soon as I give it a try. Now that I think about it, it's a new month, so why not try something new, right?! By the way, I have to mention that I love the size of this sample! It's a 3.4 fl. oz. bottle which feels like it will last a good while. It comes in a none taste formula and from what I read, if and when you purchase the product, it might come with a some flavoring tasting of mint. So you can opt for a none taste or mint taste. However you want it, that's the way you need it, anyway you want it... (Get it? I made a Journey reference. That and I was watching the commercial for State Farm and well, it fit. That and you can "Have it your way." But that is already taken by Burger King.)

 
     This up above, is a sample for Fekkai Technician Hair Color. I don't die my hair, but I obviously know someone who does. Either way, I still ordered the sample and this one came from Costco. (Just to let you guys know starting from right now, if I ever post samples that you could get from Costco, you might notice that in the form, Costco asks you for your membership number. If you have one, go ahead and use it! But if you're like me who's either never been to Costco or just doesn't have a membership number, use any random 12 numbers starting with a "1".) I was reading some reviews for it. I read from a couple of people that if you have thin hair, the product will leave it without volume. It gives great shine and smells great. Some people loved it, some liked it, others did not.

     Now, these pills I ordered from a vitamin company named Swanson Health Products. The only reason I was able to was because I had read about how to get them for little of no cost from another sample website. The company was giving away $5 worth of a coupon after liking their page and using a promo code, they would take I believe 15% off and give free shipping with any order as long as both or just the promo code were used. The sample site where I had gotten the little "loop" from said to add something of $2.99 or less of value to my cart and that adding the coupon plus the promo code would guarantee a free order. Sure enough, when I placed the order, I owed nothing but a mere $0.64, which was almost nothing. These pills are for the heart and I actually got them from the "Buy one, get one free" tab. I have not tried the pills yet, but I will soon do so. I guess that the company caught on to what was going on because a day after I had placed my order, they said that these (coupon and promo code) and their effectiveness were only to be placed on orders $25 and higher, but that orders that had already been placed using these were going to be honored, so in the end, I still owed only $0.64. Yay!
     I hope you guys enjoyed this post and another new one is sure to be posted in the following days. Stay tuned! And remember to visit my Facebook page and "Like" it! Share this with other friends and help me spread the word, yeah?
