Black Friday/Cyber Monday Etailer Sales


Filed under: Sales and Specials — Sarah @ 10:53 am

If you haven’t checked your inbox or your favorite etailer’s website hurry and check it - there are tons of etailer sales going on this weekend!

I have 29 messages in my inbox just waiting to tell me about some of the sales, so I’m off to read them.

Are you planning on doing any etailer sales shopping this year?

If you are let me know what you’re getting, and who you’re getting it for!

Pumpkin Spice - Mmm.


Filed under: Bath and Body, Reviews — Sarah @ 4:34 pm

Since it’s the day before Thanksgiving I figured it was time to break out the Pumpkin Spice Shea Butter Ultra Lotion from Hoity Toity.

I love the lotion, and I’m really impressed with the scent strength of all the ones I’ve tried.

It’s strong enough so that I can smell it, and I can even smell the lotion after I wash my hands, but the smell isn’t too strong for me.

I’ve been using the Kiwi Lime Sherbert at home for several weeks, and I’ve got a sample of the Brown Sugar Vanilla in my purse.

They both smell delicious, they absorb quickly and they aren’t greasy at all.

Did I say they smell delicious?

PS Happy Thanksgiving!

I’m Sick


Filed under: Info & Updates — Sarah @ 11:23 am

I just wanted to let you know why I’ve dropped off the face of the earth.

I’ve had some kind of bug since Friday, and I haven’t felt like doing much of anything lately.

I hope I’ll be better soon!

Do It Yourself Perfume Kit from Bramble Berry


Filed under: Perfume, Sarah's Surprises — Sarah @ 12:13 pm

This week we’re focusing on kits that would make great gifts.

Our first kit is the Do It Yourself Perfume Kit, $24.95 from Bramble Berry.

The kit includes perfume base, 3 different fragrances, 4 small perfume vials, 12 rollerbolls, fragrance test strips so you can test the fragrances, and a perfume booklet.

I actually won the Sweet Confections D.I.Y kit from Smelly Chick’s Online Soapmaking Resource a while ago, and I was really excited.

The three included fragrances, Vanilla Select, Dark Rich Chocolate, and Mayan Gold all smell great alone, and I’m sure I’ll have no trouble coming up with some great combinations.

I haven’t played with my kit yet, but it looks like a lot of fun.

If you’ve tried this I’d love to know what you think about it.

What combinations of fragrance did you use?

How did they turn out?

If you know of any other kits that would make a great holiday gift let me know!

Recycling


Filed under: Info & Updates — Sarah @ 1:27 pm

Tomorrow is America Recycles day, so I thought I should ask you how you recycle your etailer goodies.

If you’re an etailer, I’d love to hear about the practices you use in your business, and if you’re not, I’d still love to hear what you do to recycle.

Right now I’m saving jam jars, and candle jars so that I can use them if I ever decide to use the candle making kit Jeff got me three years ago.

I would make more jam, but everytime I went to get strawberries this year I saw fruitflies flying around in the container, and that grossed me out.

Maybe I’ll have enough strawberries from my garden next year to make jam again.

Anyways, I try to recycle the bottles and packaging from my etailer goodies when I can, and I’ve also saved a few jars for mixing piggies or storing sample baggies of piggies, although I haven’t gotten around to doing that yet.

I also try to give away products that don’t work for me so I don’t have to throw them away.

What do you do?
