About the Product

I was sent a Zero Tolerance Hinderer knife. Perfect for us, since I do have little patience and Zero Tolerance. I kid, I kid. But I'm serious too. This has got to be the coolest pocket knife I have ever seen. I have my share of pocket knifes, one I keep on my purse, and one in a sheath in my car. Why? Because, hey- you never know.. This one is way nicer than any I have ever owned. I LOVE this knife!

Anyway this is a "defender" knife a HINDERER, and to me knives are just for that. Defense & hindering. I am, not a big gun person, honestly they scare me, so a knife is perfect for me to defend myself. In addition, it's for more than just defnding yourself. A hunter could use this, or it makes a perfect gift for the hard-to-shop-for man in your life. Husband, father, son.. etc.

It is perfect for a blue collar workman to use on the job.

It has many uses and I love how rigid and just honmestly the quality of it. This particular model I was sent retail for 260$ - though they start as low as 69.95. See more Zero Tolerance knives.

Zero Tolerance knives are built tough enough to meet the needs of military, law enforcement, and other first responders. They'll handle whatever you throw at them, in real-world situations you face every day.

No excuses -- Zero Tolerance.

Anywhere modern that you live, will need air filters! But which ones are best? If you suffer from, or someone in your household suffers from allergies to dust, pet dander and more then you should check out these very efficient Lysol Air Filters which are recommended for allergies.  

•  U.S. allergy capitals from AAFA. 

The one thing I found ,most helpful about this brand and could appreciate the fact that they are widely found throughout the country, I found mine at Lowes last year on the last blog review I wrote for them!

I have a coupon code though, if you prefer to purchase online, it can be even more time-saving, and the The 20% off code is CASEY20.   My readers can purchase the filters through the following link:

• I wanted to also share with you that they currently have a Rafflecopter contest for a year’s supply of Lysol Air Filters that will run from November 18th- December 6th.  You will need to ‘like and share’ the Lysol Air Filters Facebook page to be entered into the contest.  The link for the Rafflecopter contest is: http://www.rafflecopter.com/rafl/display/2261920/.

You wouldn't want to use anything less than a quality air conditioner filter, especially since you have to breathe to live. What circulates air daily around your house should also serve a purpose of putting out clean air, and cleaning the air that is circulating, agree?

 That's why just any old air conditioner filter is no good!

Blurb Chicken Soup for the Soul

Blurb's Chicken Soup for the Soul Book**

It can be really hard buying books for people as gifts. After all, you never know just which books they already have. And then when you do find the right book and give it to them, how do you make it really personal? Put in a book plate? Write an inscription? How do you make the whole thing totally them?

These personalized “Chicken Soup for the Soul” books are one really great way to do it. Not only do you get to choose from five different story themes (from “Christmas Stories” to “Giving thanks”), you can personalize it in ways you just can’t with a conventional book. As the title suggests, these are stories meant to comfort and heal. 

Your custom “Chicken Soup for the Soul” book will truly be a book for them because the book is printed with their name on the cover, as the recipient. And it’s truly from you because your name is printed on the cover as the giver. You can even include an inscription inside the book and on the back cover. Even add a photo to the back. 

There are other nice options to choose from, like the type of cover you’d like and the type of paper. It takes just about five minutes to make it a truly custom book. And chances are, it’s something they’ll love forever. And a 60-page book starts at just $24.95.

There’s a quick video here: Chicken Soup for the Soul that shows you how to fill in all the info using a simple online tool. The books are all done by Blurb, so you know the quality is going to be great.

#card from @card has cornered the market on #Reloadable #DebitCards! #careBears

You may be wondering why the title of this post has Care Bears about them!  No, it's not a mistake. These pre-paid reloadable VISA cards can include an array of pictures, characters or images. Variety is the spice of life!  You can express yourself through your debit card, who would've thought that? 

Click the Care Bear CARD picture (above) to be taken to the website!

 

I absolutely love Care Bears so it's only natural I picked that card! They include more ways to load your Care Bears card, intelligent notifications like low balance warnings, monthly statements, ways to avoid fees and much more. AND, if you haven't already tried their current features, like loading cash with MoneyPak© or Western Union©, you may not realize how easy it is to load your card in minutes, at numerous places!!

MoneyPak is available at these stores nationwide.

This is a debit card, like the one from your bank, and you can use it EVERYWHERE Visa is accepted -- except it's way cooler and cuter than your crumby old bank card.

Here are just some fun facts we'd like to share, or please visit https://www.card.com/how-it-works for more information on the product:

• Free to order, activate and load
• Free app and check deposits from your smartphone
• Free direct deposit
• Free card-to-card transfers, any time, anywhere, in seconds
• No overdraft fees -- never goes negative!
• Safer than cash - 24/7 support, Visa fraud protection and 100% FDIC insurance on funds
• No debt, financially responsible, no interest/credit/APRs
• No credit check and approval in seconds
• 22,000 in-network ATMs
• Thousands of cool, unique card designs to choose from, including brands like: Garfield, Popeye, Betty Paige, James Dean, Care Bears, Walking Dead, Star Trek, Autism Awareness, Breast Cancer Research, Shark Week, Where's Waldo, Doodle Jump, etc.

This card is not a gift card, so you can’t give or receive the card as a gift - It's better than a gift card because you don't just use it once and toss it, but instead get to replace your boring bank-issued debit card and show it off over and over.

Free for 30 days - then $5.95 monthly fee, which we waive when you direct deposit over $800 in the previous 30 days.  This fee is the same as the Walmart prepaid card and way less than many of our competitors. It's also much less than overdrafting your bank account, paying for a checking account or using a credit card.

You can always try it out and cancel later. The cancellation process is super simple. Our monthly fee isn't assessed until after 30 days, so if you decide you don't want to keep the card, just make sure you spend all $25 before 30 days from the activation date and destroy the card. If the balance is zero after 60 days, the account will close itself due to inaction. Or you can call the number on the back and cancel at any time, but you have to make sure your balance is zero, to avoid the $7 "liquidation fee."

 I know this sounds like such a simple thing, but I loved how easy it is to find them on social media. If you can remember the word "CARD" you can find them on social media. For instance their Twitter acct is a super simple @card. Same for their Facebook URL. Maybe that is something only a blogger would appreciate. IDK! It was hard for me to find JUST ONE card I liked. I liked every card pictured in this post.

In the end, the Care Bear card was too good to pass up on. I handed it to the barista at Starbucks to pay for my Iced Caramel Macchiato and she smiled at me and said, "AW! That is THE cutest card!" (I told her she could get her own at Card.com and to give it back! LOL!)  

Another part you'll appreciate is that after you purchase the card and call the 1800 # or Load it online, your funds are available in as little as thirty minutes!!!

You can reload the card at most Kmart, CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, among other places.

You can set it up for direct deposit which can be time saving too!

Long story short, if you need a card like this, don't waste your time with other companies, just use card.com. It's so easy to remember!! Which CARD.com card do you like best? Check them out, and comment on this post!

@makitproducts Makin' them is only half the fun. Enjoy your child's #artwork at #dinnertime on plates they designed!! So neat! #iLoveMonsters

What I thought about Makit!

Some of the original templates, we drew so many, we had a hard time choosing which plates to order... in the end, I used some of my own money in addition to the three free plates for the blog review, so we could get more of the plates we drew.

Gianas cat drawing before it was printed on plate

Well if you missed my first post about Makit, check it out and see what they are all about, as well as get a special coupon code for a purchase. I loved that Makit offers you a discount, the more plates you order, the more money you save. But honestly, the best part was the not the quality, which was ON POINT *& impressive BUT instead was speed. see, I mailed off my form with the templates we colored on a Friday and the following THURSDAY not even one full week later I had the plates we ordered in hand. We were gifted 3 plates for this and the last review, but I did pay for extra plates with our own money. 30$ to be exact for the 6 plates. Not too bad, putting them at 5$ a piece for this blog review. In that case, I hate it when blog reviews cost me my own money .. BUT you know I am telling the absolute truth about the plates. I love them, and I am sure they will be treasured in the years to come. They are supposed to be dishwasher safe, but I'll just hand wash them for now... so far so good. I give this company 2 thumbs up!!!  Very unique gift that would be perfect for an adoring grandparent. With the holidays coming up, you should definitely keep Makit Products in mind: My readers save 30% on their Prepaid Art Plate Kit (that’s a savings of over $5!) - 

The finished cat plate is actually darker and prettier, before below.

My #warEagle Auburn University flip-flops plate, completed

Makit began as the creation of Bob Hodges in 1969. One day a neighbor, who was a teacher said, "Wouldn't it be fantastic to capture kids' artwork on something useful, instead of it falling off the refrigerator and throwing it out?" With a background in plastics and dinnerware manufacturing Bob saw an opportunity to create a craft medium that children and parents would love.
