February 21st, 2012
Wocka Wocka Wocka!!!
You all know how big a fan I am of The Muppets and I’m so excited that it will be available on Blu-ray and DVD on March 20th!
Disney’s “The Muppets” in-home release includes the DVD and music soundtrack packaged together and also offered as the ultimate Muppets experience, a ‘Wocka-Wocka Value Pack,’ which contains the movie on Blu-ray high definition, DVD and Digital Copy (three discs), plus a download card which allows fans to own all the songs from the film’s hugely popular soundtrack.
Disney’s “The Muppets” Blu-ray Combo Pack, with its flawless picture and pitch perfect sound, comes with a fantastic slate of bonus content including the laugh out loud “The Longest Blooper Reel Ever Made (In Muppet History––We Think).” The exciting release also includes the hilarious featurette “A Little Screen Test on the Way to the Read Through,” which follows Jason Segel, Kermit, The Great Gonzo, Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy and others as they get ready for the first day of production, and much more fun.
Additional fun-filled features on Disney’s “The Muppets” Blu-ray include a groundbreaking industry first — ‘Disney Intermission,’ a hilarious all-new feature that allows viewers to press Pause on their remote control and watch as the Muppets take over the screen and entertain until the movie resumes playing. The release also includes “Explaining Evil: The Full Tex Richman Song,” an extended version of the rollicking rap song by villain Tex Richman (Academy Award® winner Chris Cooper) who provides the hilarious backstory of why he hates the Muppets. Audio commentaries with screenwriter and star Jason Segel, director James Bobin and screenwriter Nicholas Stoller are also included.

Review and Giveaway: Sentry Safe and a Tax Time Survival Kit
February 19th, 2012
It’s that time of year again – Tax Time! If you’re like me, it’s a stressful time and I’m always trying to get all my documents together and organized before I sit down with my husband to do our taxes.
SentrySafe wants to Make Taxes Less Taxing by helping you out this tax season by getting organized and keeping your documents safe. Head over to this fun website when you need a break and play games, enter to win prizes and check out some tax tips!
Every household should have a fire-proof safe to protect all your valuables. I’ve always been worried if something would happen to our house and had important documents about our house and cars, birth certificates and CD’s of pictures in a box. But if something would happen I would have lost them. A fire-proof safe protects all of those items that can’t be replaced.
We were sent the HD4100, a Waterproof Fire-Safe File.
This safe is perfect for the home or the office. It holds up to 40 standard hanging folders, so it’s perfect to hold all your tax documents and other important items. The lid also provides organization and easy access to items like passports, flash drives and more. The safe features a privacy key lock with two keys to help limit access to who needs it!
In preparation for doing our taxes, I put together a Tax Time Survival Kit!
My Tax Time Survival Kit includes:
- Notebook
- Nice, comfortable black pens
- Tylenol for any headaches that may pop up
- Post-it Notes for easy reminders
- Snack! I got some Reeses Fast Break Candy
- Iced Coffee [We were going to need some caffeine to keep us going!}
SentrySafe wants you to be prepared this tax season and they are giving one lucky reader a HD4100 Fire-Proof Safe and a $25 Walmart Gift Card to create your own Tax Survival Kit!
Review & Giveaway: Win a $149 LG Remarq Kid-Friendly Cell Phone from kajeet
February 18th, 2012
These days, technology is everywhere. I have friends who have children that are ages 10-12 and all of their kids are begging for a phone. Before I was a Mom, I used to think there’s no reason a child that young needs a phone. But these days, I’ve definitely been thinking differently. A phone can actually be a good thing for a child, as long as a parent is watching over them. When I think of Hayden being older and being without me I want to be able to get a hold of him when I need to and vice versa! But can you really trust a kid not to use their phone to go online, use up all your minutes or go over your text limit?
If you’re thinking about getting a phone for your child or teenager, look into kajeet cellular phones – phones specifically designed for children!
Not only are the kid cell phones from kajeet affordable, they are also safe and let the parents choose the features available on the phone!
Check out some of the great features that kajeet offers!
No Contracts, Activation Fees or Early Termination Fees.
kajeet understands that kids are always changing their minds. With kajeet, you’re not locked into a contract, there’s no activation fees or outrageous early termination fees like other phone companies.
Easy Parental Controls
With the parental controls, you can decide how many minutes and text messages are allowed. You can even control who your child calls and texts and when!
With the Time Manager, you can make sure your child can’t make or receive calls and texts during school or after bedtime.
The Feature Manager lets you control if your child has mobile internet access and the ability to download ringtones and games or even receive pictures!
GPS Phone Locator
Yup, I’m going to be one of those Moms who wants to know exactly where their child is. {Can I be like that when he’s in his twenties too?} I love the option of a phone having a GPS so you can instantly locate where they are.
kajeet cell phones are on the Sprint service, so you will have nationwide coverage also. Since kajeet is the company providing the service you won’t have access to things like Spring Navigation, Social Zone, Sprint TV and more.
The kajeet website is very easy to navigate also. First, you choose your phone. All of the available phones are Android phones like LG cell phones or even the HTC Evo Shift!
Once you choose your phone, it’s time to choose a service plans. Service plans start at just $4.99 a month. The most popular plan is only $19.99 a month and that includes unlimited texting, picture messaging, parental controls, GPS locator and 150 anytime minutes.
Fill out your information and then the phone is sent to you!
I received the LG Remarq to review, which has a slide out QWERTY keyboard, a built-in MP3 player and even a 1.3 MP camera! This it the perfect phone for your child or tween!
I love that parents have total control of the phone. Bad grade or missed curfew? Subtract texts and minutes! Good grade? Add some minutes!
