Renuzit Tri-Scents

Awhile back on Social Spark, I was given an invitation to try a new product called Renuzit TriScents. I was asked to give my shipping address, which I did, and was told I would receive a free sample. Today it came!! I was pleasantly surprised, as I had forgotten about it.

The sample was actually a full size product, and it came nicely wrapped too. Inside the box was crinkly blue paper to cushion it. You don't normally see that kind of detail, so that made me happy. I received the "Seaside Breezes" collection of scents in my package. That includes "Relaxing Waves", "Beach Breezes", and "Ocean Oasis". Now normally I am not an air freshener type of person, I don't really care for them, nor do I care for ocean type scents. But once again, I was very surprised and I actually do enjoy it quite a bit.

I decided to put the Renuzit TriScents in my living room because it was the closest outlet to where I opened my package. Where my desk is, is actually quite far away from the outlet, and I can still smell it clear across the room. It is not strong, smells very pleasant and distributes the fragrance nicely throughout the room. I am very happy with it! And nothing beats free stuff in the mail either.

Renuzit TriScents is a really innovative product. What it does is have three different scented oils, which I listed the names of above, and every forty-five minutes, the unit will switch scents. They say on their site that once you get used to a fragrance, you stop smelling it (this happens to me all the time with my perfume). That is why I really like this, because every forty-five minutes, you get a new fragrance in the air.

With my package, I also received some coupons to put towards any Renuzit products. One is for $2 off any one Renuzit TriScents Air Freshener Kit. If you visit their website, Renuzit TriScents, you can also print out some coupons for the Renuzit TriScents starter kit.

Out, damn'd spot! out, I say!

That is always what I seem to be saying to my carpet. With four kids, two adult cats, and one large eighty pound Black Lab, my carpet takes a beating. There is constantly traffic in and out of the house, so the carpet needs to be taken care of regularly. Our pets shed as well too, and I hate to see pet hair laying around, so I vacuum a lot.

I have to admit though, I have not always been this diligent with keeping clean. The kitchen floor is what I hate to clean the most though, and our dog gives the floor regular baths with his tongue. He is our canine vacuum and mop, all rolled into one. That is how I like to save energy by not cleaning. Why should I mop when the dog does it for me, right?


Just kidding!!!

Now-a-days, it is wise to be as energy-efficient and earth friendly as you can. One company that is striving to be more energy-efficient is Dirt DevilThey have developed a new cordless vacuum that is the first cordless vac to receive Energy Star Approval! The new AccuCharge Stick Vac and Hand Vac use 70% less energy!!



I have actually been looking for a vacuum that is a bit easier to use, instead of hauling out my regular one. It does the work I need it too, but it is so bulky, and I like how the AccuCharge Stick Vac is so inconspicuous. It also looks easy to use and maneuver around tight places. I really like the fact that it is energy efficient though, it helps me to save on our bills, and does good for the Earth!

I think I'll be looking for this soon!

Tying in with my last post about the Dockers contest, I am now going to share with you my favorite video in the Dockers contest. I picked it out of many because it seems to be the funniest, most creative and most original video in my opinion. Some of the other videos that have been submitted lack all of the previously mentioned aspects. Ok, they aren't all that bad, but I do think that the entries could have been a lot more interesting.

When I heard that I could watch some of the Dockers Contest videos, I expected to see some rip-roarin' funny stuff, and this was the only one that came close to it. It describes in detail, all the ways Dockers can be used and places they can be worn. Dockers Video

If it doesn't come up, click on the red arrow and scroll down to the one that says "Do It In Dockers", I think it is the 6th video.

I would love to see more entries, so why don't you submit a video? It is fun, and you get to win a chance to see your add on Jay Leno!!! Wouldn't that be fun? But you better hurry, because the contest ends on May 29th, so you only have a couple more days to enter your video submission. The clock is ticking! Use your creativity people!

A Day In The Life Of My Pants

My jeans certainly don't live an exciting life. In fact, my favorite pair of jeans probably hates me right now because it was sitting in a pile of dirty laundry for over a week. But today however, they had fun! They started off the day, clean, dry and unwrinkled. I think they must have been confused, because they certainly don't experience that every day. They were put on, and secured with a new leather belt they helped me to find last week. Then we went shopping together! They stayed with me as I searched the bins in Gymboree for good deals, and complained when I threw them on the floor of a dressing room so they could be usurped by a newer, better pair. Well, lucky for them, they weren't. Jeans such as this are not easy to come by. Now we're home, and they are once again sitting in a pile of dirty laundry, awaiting the glorious day that they can accompany me on another "exciting" adventure. I feel though, that I shall have to break the news to them that they are about to be replaced, as they are becoming to big for me.

I bet if my pants were Dockers then they wouldn't have to suffer on a day to day basis.



Right now, there is a Dockers contest, where you can submit a video about your favorite pair of pants, to the Dockers TV Commercial Contest. It is a really neat contest, and you can win a chance to see your add on Jay Leno!!!

Why not head on over there to the Dockers contest and submit your video! You never know, you might win!!!

Do You Like Horror Films?

Me? Not so much. I have seen The Exorcist, and to date, that has been the scariest movie I have seen. I wasn't able to sleep properly for weeks! And I had to have my hubby come with me every time I went somewhere at night, or in the dark in our apartment.

There is buzz about a new movie called Frontier(s) that has movie critics everywhere talking! Apparently, it is a new Horror movie in the "gore" genre, and was classified Unrated. There is quite a bit of controversy over that, simply because it is unrated and extremely, extremely gruesome. Most movies of it's kind don't even make it to the theater, because of the violence and gore. But Frontier(s) did! It was shown in select theaters on May 9th, in only 10 cities across America, and went straight to DVD on May 13th. Seeing as it is now May 18th, you can purchase it uncut and unrated on DVD.


I am not into this type of movie, so I won't be seeing it. But I did watch the trailer, and found it to be a very suspenseful film. So if you are into the whole horror, guts and gore movie scene, this one is for you. To see clips, the unrated Trailer, and get general information about the movie, head to Frontier(s) Unrated to get your gore fest going on!

I Signed Up With Social Spark

If some of you recall, I signed up with Social Spark exactly one week ago! I actually wrote about it here in my blog last week.

Being as this is my first official Social Spark post, I am not quite sure what to write, I just want to tell you I signed up with them. I do get paid to blog with them, as I do with PayPerPost, but with SocialSpark, 100% Audit-able In-Post Disclosure is required. So ANY posts that I do for Social Spark will have a "Sponsored By Social Spark" banner at the end of them.

Once you are accepted for a post at SocialSpark, you have twelve hours to complete it. Customer Love is pretty quick about getting back to you if you need to correct anything, and they do allow you to re-submit your posts if need be. Social Spark has some great opportunities to blog about, as well as offering "Sparks".

A "spark" is for those of us with writers block, like I often get. It is not a paid opp, but more often than not, the sponsor will blog about you on their site in return. This is called "Blog U Back". Even though I wouldn't get paid for doing this, it actually does give me some sort of "return". See, if another blogger writes about me or my blog on their blog, that will generate more traffic to this site. Which in turn will raise my rank, and get me more Opps, and therefore, more money!

Once you have submitted your post, and as long as you have followed all the required posting guidlines, as well as the Code of Ethics, you will be paid. But don't forget, your blog has to be 90 days old before you can sign up and start posting with Social Spark.
