This Frugal Family

Spring, and Summer, are just around the corner.  And, I love the new line of Sparkly Sun Screen Lotion from Sunshine And Glitter.  I’ve never felt pretty.  My 21 year old, daughter, loves it too.  She took a bottle for herself.  This stuff is magnificent.  I will continue to use it, until I die.  Even though it’s too cold in Pennsylvania to go outside with it on, I’ve tried it, and it leaves me feeling so silky, and ready for a tan. I gifted a bottle, to a friend, for her little girl, and she said that she won’t let her wipe it off.  Every time she bathes her, she wants more on.  I love it too, especially the Beach Gypsy SPF 30+.  The Beach Gypsy leaves you all glittery, and makes you feel so silky smooth. I can’t wait to go to Lake Erie, this Summer, and wear these at Presque Isle.  I’ll be so shimmering, and fancy.  My daughter says she can’t wait either.  We will be the cutest ones there. Sunshine and Glitter (Beach Gypsy) is Water Resistant, up to 80 Minutes, UVA/UVB Protection is important, as well, and they provide it.  It’s also Eco-Friendly, biodegradable glitter, and NO…

Sparkling Ice has a new formula, featuring naturally sourced colors and flavors, in addition to an updated logo and packaging design.  My son loves Sparkling Ice, and now he loves it more, with the naturally sourced colors, and flavors.  He says it tastes great!  My 21 year old, daughter, loves the taste as well.  They fight over who gets to drink the last bottle all the time.  I can’t keep Sparkling Ice in the house.  And, they love all the flavors, not one more than another. Over the course of two years, Sparkling Ice conducted extensive marketing research and sensory testing with over 8000 consumers. This consumer driven project resulted in Sparkling Ice updating their flavorful, zero sugar sparkling water to now include colors from natural sources. With this new formulation, Sparkling Ice is proud to be one of the first brands to successfully transition to natural colors while maintaining the vibrant look and long shelf life that Sparkling Ice is known for. You will love Sparkling Ice, whether you’ve had it before or not.  It tastes great.  My favorite flavor is the Sparkling Black Raspberry.  It’s delicious.  Jacob, and Sarah, will drink any of the flavors, as will I,…

I have been taking Everyday Enzymes for about a month, and it really is great.  I was taking an Acid Reflux medication, but now, I simply take Everyday Enzymes.  The gas, bloating, and acid reflux have deceased.  I can’t believe how well this stuff works!  And, it’s not causing any side affects with my other meds.

We love Dead Soxy, in our home.  The socks are magnificent, and long lasting.  I’ve washed them at least a dozen times, and they are still form fitting.  They last and last.  I can’t get over how well they are maintained. My 7 year old now won’t wear anything but Dead Soxy.  He loves his no shows, can’t stand socks that go up to his knees.  Good thing that Dead Soxy can handle his feet.  With school starting back up, these are the perfect socks for Gym Class, or everyday class. My daughter is in her 3rd year of college, and she loves Dead Soxy, as well.  She just snatched my last two pairs up yesterday.  She says they are so comfortable, and wash up well. Wanna hear something great?  If you live in the USA, you can get FREE SHIPPING on your socks.  And, the no shows are 3 for $35.  That’s an amazing price.  We buy them all the time, because even the local store doesn’t have that great of a deal. Some Fun Facts about Dead Soxy: They are no slip:  You will not fall when you are wearing them. They are no Shrink:  Seriously though, they…

I love Thirty-One.  Their bags are perfect.  We are going on an overnight stay, and the In The Clear Tote is the perfect size for mine and my spouse’s clothes.  It’s so big, and spacious.  I could probably even fit my 7 year old’s clothes in it.  There’s even a hidden pocket, in the tote, to keep my pills in.  This is great!This bag, is by far, the best bag I’ve received.  I love Thirty-One, and can’t stress that enough.  In The Clear Tote is going to be the bag of the week.  When I take it with me, to the waterpark, everyone will envy it.  I’ll love telling them where to get their bag at. I also received The Getaway Tote.  My sister is flying to Myrtle Beach, and this is her bag, for the plane.  It’s the perfect size, to get on flight, and she will be able to put all the necessities in it.  I love this bag, as well.  However, she asked me to use it, so how could I say no?  The size is 14.75″H x 13.75″L x 6″D, which will be great to put her phone, ipad, etc. in. I also received the Pinch Top…

My sister loves the Fifty Shades movies, so when I was asked to watch them, I thought it would be great. The Fifty Shades movies are very sensual, and entertaining.  I can’t believe some of those scenes, but I’m glad I watched the 3 films. The Fifty Shades of Grey was fantastic, then Fifty Shades Darker was fascinating, and Fifty Shades Freed was super!  I enjoyed all of these films.  And, now you can get them in the Boxed Set!  I know what my sister is getting for her birthday. Fifty Shades Of Grey has an alternate ending, and boy I never saw that coming. The global film sensation sparked by EL James’ best-selling book trilogy returns with the seminal final chapter of the darkly alluring tale that captivated the world.

My 20 year old, daughter, loves Mangiacotti Whipped Body Wash.  She said it leaves her feeling extra clean, and she even uses it to shave.  She said the whipped feeling gets deep down in, and leaves her feeling sparkling good.  I’ve tried it, as well, and love it too.  I agree with her 100%.  And, agree that our fans have to try this.  We received the Ocean scent, and it is great.

We recently tried Pur Attitude, and it’s fantastic.  My 20 year old loves it.  She said the Foaming Bamboo Scrub is Amazing!  I love the Cellufirm lotion.  It makes my skin tighter, and more firm.  These products can both be purchased on Pur Attitude, and you can get free shipping. The Foaming Bamboo Scrub (almond) not only smells good, but works great.  It exfoliates rough, dry, and dead skin debris, preparing your skin for the optimum benefits of moisturizing.  Sarah says she loves the way the Bamboo Scrub leaves her skin feeling.  She says, “it’s like no other product out there.”  She loves that her skin is soft and not rough after using it. Benefits include: Invigorating, foaming scrub Sloughs away dead skin cells Eliminates rough flaky skin The CelluFirm Lotion leaves my skin feeling tighter, and less wrinkled.  I love the way I feel after using the Cellufirm Lotion.  I’m going to let my Mother in law try it, and get her opinion, as well.  I will update this post in the near future.

I have always loved Thirty-One, so it’s no surprise that it’s my go-to brand!  But, not only do they have gorgeous bags, they have magnificent purses.  These purses can be changed up, for a different style, every day of the week.  Check out the Build your own, featured half way down this post. There are so many styles, of purses, and they know style.  I received a beautiful purse, and 2 inserts, to change the style.  I love my new purse.  It’s just what I needed, to make the day pass by a little easier. The purse, pictured above, can be found here. The purse I received, Build your own, is so cool.  I’ve built my own, and the sleek design is exceptional.  You can get so much use, out of one purse.  It’s amazing.  Check out the video.   Key features: Pebble faux leather Interchangeable flaps and straps Interior zipper pocket and 2 flat pockets Flat exterior back pocket with magnets Exterior hidden cell phone pocket Monogramming and personalization options available Classic body dimensions: 8.5″H x 12″L x 2.5″D Flap dimensions: 9.25″H x 10.5″L Pebble faux leather crossbody strap dimensions: 1″H x 29″ to 54″L Cotton web crossbody strap…

I gave one to my Mother In Law, and she loves it.  Says it’s the most comfortable bra she wears.  It’s a deep purple, Comfort Bra.  And, she says it is just that, “comfy”.  I will be ordering a few more, as well.  I do 13 stockings, over Christmas, and these would be wonderful for the women.  I had to have my Mother in law test the Comfort Bra out, just to see if I wanted to buy more, and surely I do.  We will all get a different color, to make sure none of them get confused, and this will be a great addition to the women’s stockings. Their advertisement is surely true, according to Mom in law.  She says it’s truly the “Most Comfortable Bra Ever!”.  I’m glad that we came across The Coobie Store.  There are a variety of bras to choose from, but my mother in law loves the Comfort Bra.  The comfort bra goes over your head, like a sports bra, but gives you much support, she has stated to me.  Which is great for her, as she is a breast cancer survivor.  She needs that support, because her breasts can be uncomfortable.  However, the…
