Chariteas is the Best Tea We’ve had in a Long Time!
2021 Valentine's Gift Guide , Reviews , women / January 28, 2021

CHARITEAS I’ve recently tried Chariteas, and it is awesome.  My 23 year old, daughter, stole some, which is okay, because she wanted to try it too.   It’s loose-leaf tea, with so many perfections!  The herbal selection that was chosen, for my family, was perfect.  The Blueberry Cobbler was divine.  The Berry Fields Forever was Heavenly, and The Olive and Dingo’s Color Changing Tea was something unique.  This kit is called Herbal Infusion Tea Flight, and it is simply grand.     A trio of non-caffeinated herbal infusions best for the young and the young at heart! Thanks to butterfly pea flower, the first infusion changes from blue to purple with the addition of citrus. A classic berry hibiscus blend, steeps up bright red, and is great in a tall glass of iced tea.  This flight is rounded out with an Oregon hazelnut and cocoa nib blend reminiscent of freshly baked blueberry pastries. Box Contains Olive & Dingo Color Changing tea, Berry Fields Forever, and Blueberry Cobbler. We have finished up this wonderful Decaf Trio, and couldn’t be more thrilled.  I have depression, and Bi Polar, so I’m supposed to drink Decaf, and with the help of Chariteas, I’ll be drinking it a…

Think Tank Scholar for Flash Cards!
2021 Valentine's Gift Guide , kids , Reviews / January 28, 2021

Think Tank Scholar has wonderful Math Flash Cards.  My son, age 9, is learning Multiplication, and Division, in his Fourth Grade, Online Class.  He isn’t completely getting it, so I’m working with Think Tank Scholar to make sure he does get it.  Before the flash cards, he wasn’t getting it much, now he’s getting it almost completely.  I love these Flash Cards. There’s Addition, and Subtraction, for the younger kids, and Multiplication, and Division, for the middle aged children.  These cards have saved me some sanity.  He wasn’t getting it, much, and I was trying to teach him, but I’m not a teacher.  So, getting these cards was a wonderful decision.  But, it doesn’t stop with Math, there’s Sight Words, and Preschool Work too. I love Think Tank Scholar, and would recommend them to everyone I know, including our fans!  Your kids will learn so much more, with this little push of help.  Jacob is already on the road to knowing all of his Multiplication, which will help him with his division.  There’s even charts, included with each kit.  Jacob may miss a day, or two, but with Think Tank Scholar, he is staying caught up. Here’s a link to…

Dr. Plotka’s Mouth Watchers Toothbrushes are the Best!
2021 Valentine's Gift Guide , kids , Reviews , women / January 26, 2021

I love Dr. Plotka’s Mouth Watchers toothbrushes.  I’m no stranger to this brand, as I’ve been using them for several months.  I love the feel, of the brush, on my teeth!  I feel like I’m getting a cleaning at the Dr. when I use this brand!  It’s not harsh, or painful, just comfort and joy.  This toothbrush makes a world of change with my teeth.  My 9 year old used to have cavities at every trip to the dentist.  But, since we’ve been using Mouth Watchers, he’s not had one cavity.  I know, AMAZING! Each polyester bristle is infused with silver to eliminate 99.7% of bacteria that typically grow on your brush between uses. Within six hours of using the brush, your toothbrush is virtually bacteria free and ready for your next use. And, since polyester is a more resilient material than traditional nylon bristles, this toothbrush will last up to 4 months – one month longer than a typical brush. The Mouth Watchers really are the Best. Brush. Ever.  I love the way my mouth feels, after a good cleaning.  This toothbrush reminds me of that.  And, to think with the silver in the bristles, it becomes almost bacteria…

Lena & Snowball from Lionsgate is a great movie
2021 Valentine's Gift Guide , kids , Reviews , women / January 18, 2021

We recently sat down, as a family, to watch Lena & Snowball.  It was so adorable, and we couldn’t resist watching it a second time.  Lena and her friend, Snowball, were an unlikely pair, but worked together so great.  My 9 year old has watched it several times.  And, my 23 year old watches it with him, almost every time. Bullied at school and lonely at home, Lena keeps hoping she’ll have a true friend someday.  One afternoon, her dreams come true – in the shape of a cuddly white lion cub!  Lena tries to keep playful Snowball out of trouble, but the clumsy poachers who kidnapped the valuable cub, and the cruel trophy collector who paid for him, are desperate to get him back.  As Lena races to rescue poor Snowball, her new friend Jake will do anything to help.  Be careful, or Snowball will melt your family’s heart! He did melt ours. Parts played by Melissa Collazo, Wade Williams, Bransombe Richmond, and Robert Knepper. Run Time:  90 minutes. This film was just released on January 12, so get out and get your copy today.  You’ll love watching it! Connect with Lionsgate:      Shop     |     Facebook …

Umidigi is the Best Fitness Tracker #Umidigi
2021 Valentine's Gift Guide , Reviews / January 16, 2021

UMIDIGI I love my Umidigi watch.  First, it’s made by Samsung!  Next, it’s the best fitness watch I’ve ever owned.  You can get it in Rose Gold, Gray, Icy White, Ocean Green, or Titanium Gray.  The colors are all amazing.  The Fitness Tracker works great.  I love how I can track my steps day in, and day out.  My daughter loves it too.  She wears one all the time, as well.  She loves it better than any other Fitness Tracker. The Fitness Tracker is inexpensive, and works wonderfully!  You couldn’t ask for a better tracker.  Only downfall, the writing in the instruction manual is a little small.  We got a magnifying glass, and were able to see it perfectly. I love that the time, and fitness are both right on my wrist.  There’s even a GPS built in.  And, it looks beautiful on my wrist. Umidigi has so many features, you won’t be able to do without it.  See Below, for all the amazing features: 【Lightweight&Personalized Watch Faces】 The 1.3 inches square color touch display covered with a 2.5D curved glass and aluminum alloy frame, Uwatch 2S smartwatch makes it elegant and light to wear, but also sturdy and scratch-resistant.

Costoffs Has Beautiful Makeup Cases At A Great Price
2021 Valentine's Gift Guide , Reviews , women / January 10, 2021

COSTOFFS I received my Costoffs’ Makeup case last week, and immediately stored all of my makeup in it.  It’s so nice to have everything in one place.  Yes, I have a ton of makeup.  In my defense, it didn’t all start out as mine, the colors I adore were given to me, by a friend. The 4-in-1 Rolling Cosmetic Case holds everything I need in one place.  The top (take off) case, I put all of my Dipsy Dip merchandise in.  (If you’re a fan of This Frugal Family, you know I’m a consultant.)   The next tray, I put all of the makeup that would fit, the next tray, the rest.  And, the bottom, I had many makeup travel bags, that I put all in the big compartment. Everything I have fits beautifully.  I couldn’t ask for a better product.  I love the color, and the style.  And, I love the fact that everything is held, with ease.  I can pull it around, on it’s wheels, with no problem. The compartments are a great size, with the bottom one being even larger.  I love this Cosmetic Case, and am so proud to own it.  What makes it extra special to…

Possets Perfume is Amazing!
2020 Holiday Gift Guide , Reviews , women / November 14, 2020

Possets Perfume Possets Perfume is my favorite “New” place to shop!  They have such an array of scents, and they are all delightful.  I received a few of their best scents, and will be ordering a ton more, for Christmas gifts.  These scents are outrageously fantastic.  I love every one.  It’s like they knew me! Good Riddance! is one of my favorites!  It’s a great scent, and I use it daily.  I just dab a drop, and it’s like, “Good Riddance 2020”!  It’s so extravagant, for the price!  The Good Riddance! scent would make a perfect stocking stuffer, for just about any one.  I’m ordering for my 23 year old daughter, Sarah, and my mother, age 73.  My sister will also get Good Riddance!, and she’s 50.  So, as I was saying it’s perfect for any one. They even have a subscription box, and it’s amazing, as well.  I love all the scents I received, and you can’t beat that price.  All the above, for $15.  You can’t beat that, and can you imagine all the wonderful scents?  Some include:  My Lover’s Lips, The Damned Flower, Arrival of the Queen of Sheba, Dance with Me, etc.  There’s such an array…

Cor Surf Changing Ponchos are Great!
2020 Holiday Gift Guide , kids , Reviews , women / October 31, 2020

My 9-year-old, Jacob, loves his poncho.  With the changing weather, we haven’t been able to use it at the pool, but I had him try it out, after his bath.  He loves it; I couldn’t get it off of him.  So, once he finally dried, I made him put on clothes.  It fit comfortably, he said, and it was the perfect size.  My daughter, 23 year old, Sarah, loves the Tribal changing Poncho.  She said, “it’s so cool, and I can put it on, before work, to get to my room to change. The adult changing poncho is a great size.  It fits my husband, and he generally wears a XL.  He loves it, when he gets out of the shower, as well.  He doesn’t have to worry about the kids seeing anything.  I mean, he gets changed fairly quick, but it’s added protection. I can’t wait til swimming season, so we can get more, to use out at the pool.  It’ll be a nice addition to the beach towels, and help them stay warm. Made from soft and highly absorbent microfiber that dries fast.  Unlike Cotton Towels, this stays light and soft when wet. Remains ODOR FREE unlike a…

Zak Designs to the Rescue for My Fall Party!
2020 Fall Gift Guide , Reviews / October 24, 2020

Zak Designs is amazing.  I truly mean that.  When I went looking for Fall colors, for a small family get together, I found Zak Designs.  They have this amazing Orange tableware.  It’s perfect, so I grabbed up two sets, off of Amazon.  There’s so many colors to choose from, but of course, I picked the most Fall color of all, orange! It’s top shelf dishwasher safe, but I wouldn’t microwave!  My hubby found that out the hard way.  It got really hot, but didn’t melt.  We just had to let it sit momentarily until we could dump out the water, in the bowl. The modern embossed design tastefully layers together and makes a nice addition to existing dinnerware pieces, table linen, and surrounding decor. This dinnerware set is perfect for both everyday use and special occasions. You can go, and check out all of their designs, styles, and colors on the website, listed at the top, and bottom of this post.  I love these, and will use them every Autumn for years to come.  I just got a new house, so this is perfect! I love Zak Designs, and will be dealing with them a lot in the future.  Their…

Guru Nanda has the most amazing Spray Hand Sanitizer
2020 Holiday Gift Guide , Reviews / October 24, 2020

Guru Nanda My family loves the Spray Hand Sanitizer from Guru Nanda.  We keep it in our truck, and use it every time we get back in from being out.  When we go to Walmart, we spray; when we go to the pharmacy, we spray.  You don’t know what is in the air, nor what the people in the store are carrying.  I’m very persistent about washing hands, and keeping our clothes washed, as well. The Lavender Hand Sanitizer is my favorite.  It smells fresh, and clean.  It makes my hands feel so vibrant!  My daughter keeps it in her vehicle, as well.  You get 12 bottles, when you buy it, so you have enough for friends, and family!  The price is a great one.  You can’t tell, in the bottle posted above, but it’s more than half empty. It’s great, because you don’t need water, to wash your hands.  You just spray, and rub your hands together. HAND SANITIZER WITH PURE LAVENDER OIL: It has true lavender essential oil that nourishes and moisturizes your skin. This sanitizer is free from harsh chemicals and safe for kids. It is also blended with fractionated coconut oil.  100% PURE AND NATURAL: Our products…
