If not, they are professionally bound books that showcase pictures and text. They are similar to scrapbooks, except done entirely electroni...

Check out these amazing deals on Disney and Barbie toys from Big Lots! You can get 2 items for free after mail in rebate!!! Great gifts for girls who love their barbies! These deals expire 12/31/11 but your Big Lots could be out of these items by then, so this is an offer you should jump on quick if you are interested!! Note: the 2nd toy is free when you buy the 1st one, but you have to pay shipping and handling ($3) and it takes 6-8 weeks for delivery, so there is a good chance you won't get it by Christmas BUT you can save it for birthdays or, what my family does sometimes is give New Year's presents... those are generally the ones that either don't get here on time (because we all generally procrastinate on shopping), we buy during after Christmas sales, or that we hid too well and forgot to give on Christmas (that's usually my mom's doing, though I'm getting pretty forgetful these days myself ;) Big Lots Disney and Barbie Rebates | Myfreepro...

I placed an order a while back with Born Pretty Store for a free Hello Kitty nail art plate, and while I was at their site I got to looking around and I was amazed at their prices! They have a number of free Promotion Gift s EVERYDAY! How amazing is that?!?! So, of course I started looking for stuff for my daughter (Christmas will be here before we know it after all) and as luck just had it I found an adorable little Hello Kitty necklace and ring set! This is the necklace I got her, for only $3.62 (plus they have free world-wide shipping on EVERY order!!) And the matching ring for $3.49! They also have this one, and a few other designs... for around the same price! So, if you're shopping for a girl like mine (7 year old) this season, I suggest you check out Born Pretty Store! Great products for great prices! By the way, it's taken me nearly an hour to write this because my daughter keeps coming up to me and asking for math help ;) I'm a tricky...

As a member of BzzAgent, I was offered the opportunity to try and Bzz about Burt's Bees Sensitive Facial Cleanser and Burt's Bees Sensitive Daily Moisturizer Cream , which are hypo-allergenic, fragrance free, and made with 99% natural ingredients. Check out Burt's Bees Natural Skin Solutions for Sensitive Skin on Facebook ! The first thing I noticed when I received the products was that the cleanser is a nice size at 6oz, but the moisturizer is quite a bit smaller at 1.8 oz. They have nearly no smell, just a slight hint of something that is indistinguishable to me, it's possibly cotton, as that is the image depicted on the bottles, but it is so slight a scent I can't be sure. The Burt's Bees Sensitive Facial Cleanser is a wonderful soap- free cleanser. It contains natural extracts such as: Quillaja, from the bark of the Soapbark tree- to provide a natural foaming lather, Yucca- for cleansing, Cotton- to soften, Rice- to moisturize, and Aloe- to soot...

I figured if all these celebrities , who could afford to use anything in the world, use Mario Badescu products, it wouldn't hurt for me to give them a try too. So, about a month ago, I filled out a quick questionnaire on the Mario Badescu website , and a few days later I received an e-mail that said "Thank you for your interest in Mario Badescu! According to our records you recently filled out our online skin care questionnaire. Based on the answers you provided, we've developed a full regimen tailored to fit your skin care needs. For your reference, we have listed your recommended products below.

I followed the directions in the e-mail and received a package with six of my recommended products a few weeks later. They were all nice sized samples that lasted me about a week. They came with a ...

Image Source: Extreme Couponing Northwest I received my sample of John Frieda's Root Awakening Nourishing Moisture Shampoo & Conditioner for dry hair from Wal-mart  a week ago. It was enough for 2 washes for me (my hair is short, but very thick, so depending on your hair length and thickness this number may increase or decrease). I can't pick out my favorite thing about these products! I just loved them! So lets start with the shampoo. The shampoo has a very unique smell, which was very soothing. I couldn't quite place the scent though without looking at the package, it is infused with natural eucalyptus and peppermint oil. These natural ingredients create a nice cooling sensation on the scalp, which is very relaxing. The conditioner is also wonderful! It too is infused with natural eucalyptus and peppermint oil, giving it that same wonderful smell and cooling affect. This is one of the thickest conditioners I've ever used. It's much like the co...
