Tommee Tippee Sippy Cups - Review & Giveaway

A few days ago I got the Tommee Tippee Explora Sippy Cups to review.  After using them for a few days I still cannot think of anything that I dislike about these cups!

These cups are sturdy, strong, and CUTE!  We have all bought the spill proof cups that our kids managed to get all over the back seat of the car, the new carpet, the kitchen floor, their clothes, well everywhere.  Right?  Or is it just me who has a daughter who can take a spill proof cup and spill it everywhere?  Either way these cups really do not spill - I shook it upside down for a few minutes and nothing!  Plus my daughter has been using them for a couple days and nothing - now that is some actual proof!!!

Not only do I hate when spill proof cups spill - but I hate when they do not spill because it is such a pain to get anything out of them.  I mean what kid wants to suck with all their might to get a little sip of milk?  Not mine!  These cups are easy to drink out of too.  Not only did my daughter have no problem but my husband even drank out of it to verify that the drink comes out easily.

These cups are also BPA Free & are insulated to keep the drink cooler longer (another feature I love!) 

TO BUY:  You can buy Tommee Tippee items at either Toys R Us or Babies R Us!

COUNTRY BOBS ALL PURPOSE SAUCE - REVIEW & GIVEAWAY { 2 Winners }

I was recently sent Country Bob's all Purpose Sauce to review!  The night that we got it we ordered some sandwiches and fries from our local deli.  I decided to use this sauce instead of using the usual fry sauce (Ketchup/Mayo mixed for those of you that have no clue what fry sauce is - I know when I lived in Nebraska NO ONE knew what I meant, or thought I meant ketchup).  To my surprise it was great used as a dip for both my sandwich and my fries.  I was going to write my review that night but they had also sent some recipes so I decided to wait until I had time to try one of those.

Well, tonight we made the County Bob's All Purpose Sauce Meat-Loaf.  I was nervous to make it because I am pretty use to my meatloaf and wasn't sure if I would really like any other.  We all ate it so we could all give our opinions!  My son liked it but since I usually put brown-sugar in mine he said it wasn't as sweet as he liked it.  My husband is a meat loaf fan and he enjoyed it (he even had 3 or 4 helpings).  I thought it was very good but am like my son and like the sweetness with the brown sugar!  That is the awesome thing about Country Bob's though is I can make it with Brown Sugar next time - they have tons of recipes online but you can always tweek them a little if you like something a certain way!!!

All in all I really enjoy Country Bob's Sauce and think we will continue to keep it on hand in our house - not only do I like it just as much as my other sauces but when I compared the nutrition facts it had a lot less calories!

TO BUY:  You can check your local store to see if they carry (if they don't you can always put in a request that they start carrying it.)  You can also head over to Country Bobs Online to purchase some - including gift packs, etc.

TO WIN:  TWO Lucky Readers will get to try out a bottle of Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce for Free!  Just enter here - make sure to leave a separate comment for each entry & leave your e-mail address in each comment!

SMARTKNIT KIDS SOCKS - REVIEW

I recently received 2 pair of Smartknit Kids Socks for my son to review.  I was anxious to try these as finding socks that my son will actually wear is quite the chore.  They can't be too thick, too tight, to long, to big of seams, and the fabric must be soft.  Usually I have to go to the womens section in the store to find socks he finds acceptable (and if he knew they were from the womens section that would probably rule them out too).

As you can see above they have many different size and color options!  We got the Large White ones (who knows what colors my son would and would not wear so I just got white!)  Also, if you need bigger one's they carry smart knit big kid socks too, so you can get larger ones if needed.

We received the socks and I had my son try them on.  When he first felt them he wasn't too sure, they weren't quite as thin as his regulars but after trying them on he approved!

I asked him what he liked about the socks I asked him why he liked them and he said they didn't have the hard thing (the seam) and they felt good on his feet!  If your child is picky at all about their socks you have got to try these out!  Trust me, my son is about as picky as they get for socks and he approves them!  I am going to have to stock up on these now so he doesn't try to go barefoot anymore!

TO BUY:  Go to SmartknitKids.com and check out all their cool, comfy, seamless socks!  Go to the shopping tab to see where to by them!

COUPY KEEP REVIEW & GIVEAWAY

I love coupon shopping!  It feels so great to walk out of the store and have a receipt showing you saved 50, 60, 70, or even 80% off your purchase!  I just love it!  Sometimes when it comes to organizing your coupons it can be a bit overwhelming though!  I was getting 6 copies of the Sunday paper for the coupons and would use a binder with the baseball card holder plastic pages to keep my coupons in.  However, with the holiday season coming and me not doing my coupon shopping like I use to I canceled all except 1 copy.  My binder is now a little to big and bulky to carry around with not very many coupons so I was pretty excited to be able to review the CoupyKeep!

The CoupyKeep comes in many different colors - I chose black.  It comes with 15 dividers and a whole bunch of stickers so you can choose what you want the dividers to be for!  I love this coupon organizer!  It makes it simple to organize my coupons, the dividers make it very organized, and it is easy to sort through!  My favorite feature has to be that it can hang on the cart handle though!  I hated trying to put my daughter in the cart and having my binder somewhere that it was easy to look through - I don't have that problem now!

Look how nicely it hangs over (and it has velcro so it will stay) on the cart!  It makes it nice to easily flip through and access too!  If you coupon shop then this would be great for you, or you could add it to your Christmas shopping list for that Coupon shopper you know!  Better yet, you can win one below so make sure to enter!

TO BUY:  To get your own CoupyKeep go to CoupyKeep.com and order!
TO WIN:  One lucky reader will win their very own CoupyKeep - Complete ALL Mandatory entries below and any Optional/Bonus entries you want - Leave a separate comment for each and make sure your e-mail address is in each comment!!!
