Got funk? Fridge It! review and giveaway!-CLOSED

In Twitter I was complaining about trying to fight some funk in my life. Yep. There were smells that I just couldn’t get rid of.

Case in point: the fridge and freezer. Have you ever noticed that if you leave something in your fridge too long, and it either A) spoils or B) makes everything else in the fridge taste/smell like that particular item ::cough.onion.cough::? Also, have you ever experienced the “freezer burn” smell from your freezer? OMGoodness, I HATE THAT SMELL. It makes me want to yack.

Well the Twitter gods must have been smiling upon me, because Bruce from Innofresh heard my complaints and came to my rescue…

and sent me a few of these gems to give a whirl:

Fridgeit

Oh yeah. They’re small. They’re cute. They’re purple. THEY LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE POLKA DOTS ON THEM!!!

Best of all (besides the polka dots) THEY REALLY WORK. REALLY, REALLY WORK PEOPLE!!!!!

These things are so awesome.

1) THEY ARE MADE IN AMERICA!!! That’s right, real American jobs folks! I can’t tell you how much this means to me, as my J works for an American company as well. We should all be supporting American businesses with the economy the way it is. Okay, off my soap box now…

2) Bruce has assured me they use no fragrances that can irritate allergies, or asthma. This is awesome, considering M and J have NASTY allergies and I have asthma. It’s so much better than using sprays that can make us sneeze and wheeze for weeks.

3) They are made from magic activated charcoal, and are odor eliminators and absorbers. This means no harsh chemicals, and you’re not going to constantly have to spray anything (which means less time cleaning!). These little guys last for about 6 months.

So here’s where I put them to the test:

First I put one in my freezer to eliminate that nasty freezer burn smell. I kid you not, it disappeared! My stomach would no longer lurch when I opened my freezer up. You have no idea what a relief that was to me. I know I sound crazy, but I am super sensitive to that smell.

Then I hung one in the back of my fridge, replacing my box of baking soda. Fridge it! Actually got rid of smells that the box of baking soda could not! I know!

So then, I stuck one in M’s hockey gym bag. Smell- GONE!

Then I stuck two in a pair of FUNKY shoes. Again, Fridge it! Came through, and the smells were gone. And you know what? The smells have not come back. It eliminated the funk all together!

Then, J was giving our bathroom a massive clean over, and the chemical smell was just insane in there. So J asked me if we could “Fridge It!”. I wasn’t sure it could handle the heavy smells from the cleaners, but said, hey, let’s give it a whirl, and we set a Fridge It! on the counter. Sure enough, within moments, the chemical smells were gone! Huge test: PASS!

So I know you’re wondering- oooooh DD, how can I score some for free? Well, I’m happy to tell you that Innofresh has given me a set of SIX to give away to one lucky reader!

All you have to do is one of the following (or all, just make sure to leave it in separate comments, k?)

  • Follow Innofresh’s CEO on Twitter (the amazing Mr. Bruce) @Innofresh
  • Head to Innofresh’s site, and tell me which odor eliminator would you like the most. Leave the comment below with your pick!
  • Tweet this: @DomesticDebacle and @Innofresh have teamed up to give you FridgeIT! for your funk! Check it out here: http://tinyurl.com/yh7lzt7
  • Blog about this giveaway, and include the link in your comment. Make sure to mention how you would use Fridge It!

This giveaway will end on Thursday, December 10th at 11:00am.

(Dear FTC: I was given a 6 pack of Fridge It! to try, and another to giveaway to my readers. I loved it. They rock. No money exchanged hands, mmmmmkay?)

Crazy Uncle Jester’s review & HOLIDAY giveaway!-CLOSED

Before I get into the reviewy stuff, let me give you a little back-story…

So, I went to this rockin’ party on Halloween that had some appetizers sitting out. One in particular looked very festive. It was a block of cream cheese, with some orange jelly, with what looked like little red flakes in it poured over top. I had to try it.

Turns out curiosity can (almost) kill your tastebuds.

I took a HUGE bite of the stuff, and let me tell you, this party instatly became my favorite because of this amazing jelly! It was SPICY but oh-so- sweet at the same time!

It was the BEST and most unique tasting dip I had ever. had. in. my. whole. stinkin’. life. I never left the table (well, except to kick some butt at Halloween Pictonary).

And my luck must have been in full out that night, because the MASTERS of the yumminess were at the party with little ol’ me. Needless to say, I was like a 13 year-old girl at a Jonas Bro’s concert.

You may laugh at me now…

Ok, so I was chatting with Crazy Uncle Jester HIMSELF (in the flesh y’all!) and mentioned that I must have all of his products, and that I would SHARE them with you!! (You can thank me later)

All of the products are made FARM FRESH, ALL NATURAL, NO PRESERVATIVES and get this: TRANS FAT FREE!!!

Even better- they are AWARD WINNING!! Check out their site to see all their amazing awards. They’ve even won Scovie Awards. How cool is that?

Here’s the KICK ARSE prizepack, which would be awesome as a gift (any man would LOVE this gift) for the holidays:

UncleJesterbasket

How cute is this basket? And before you ask, the sticker is on the plastic, not the basket, so it is reusable! I’m thinking this MUST have been Aunt Jester’s idea. She’s one classy lady!

It comes with: a 16 Fl. Oz. bottle of Crazy Uncle Jester’s Brush Fire BBQ™, Crazy Uncle Jester’s Jamaican Hellfire™, an 8 Fl. Oz. jar of Crazy Uncle Jester’s Wild Fire Jelly™, 8 Fl. Oz. of Crazy Uncle Jester’s Blazing Hot Mustard™, an 8 Fl. Oz. jar of Crazy Uncle Jester’s AfterBurner Sauce™, and a six-pack of Crazy Uncle Jester’s Molten Hot Magma Balls™. Yuuuuuuummmmmmmm

Now, this is no cheap giveaway, so I’m gonna make you work a little harder for this one. Here’s what you need to do (you don’t have to do all- but remember to comment separately, mmkay?)

  • Follow Crazy Uncle Jester on Twitter. Get your followers to do the same for an extra bonus entry.
  • Go to the Crazy Uncle Jester site, and tell me which product you think you’d like to try the most.
  • Tweet this: @DomesticDebacle & @CrazyUnclJester are giving away a HOT holiday gift pack!Head here: http://tinyurl.com/yh7lzt7

Again folks, make sure you comment separately for EACH thing you do. It’s more entries, and let’s admit it, it’s one of those giveaways that are SOOOOOO worth it!

This giveaway will end on Saturday, December 12th at noon. Once I have picked my winner, it will be shipped out the following Monday first thing in the morning.

(Dear FTC: I got this cool prizepack for me & one to giveaway to my readers. Uncle Jester and Aunt Jester are some awesome peeps, that I know personally. No money exchanged hands, but I can tell you that 2 of my family members are getting this prizepack, and I’m paying for them myself, full price ’cause that’s how I roll. I support local businesses and don’t expect freebies. I would have blogged about them anyway.)

Yoplait kids- less sugar, more fun giveaway!-CLOSED

One thing I am constantly worried about with M, is how much sugar she eats. My husband- who is addicted to the white stuff, is constantly slipping her some sugary goodness, much to my dismay. With the holidays in full throttle, it’s even worse.

But at least I know that she’ll have a yogurt with 25% less sugar than the rest of the kids’ yogurt out there!

The best part though, is that it’s fun to eat. Yoplait kids has some great colors (M prefers the Trix variety-which we buy all the time, so I was thrilled when I got some for free from Blog Spark) and it’s super creamy! It also contains NO artificial sweeteners or flavorings, so it’s good for your little one(s) too! And even better, it’s an awesome source of vitamin D. I don’t know about you, but it’s getting harder and harder to get M to drink milk, so we need all the help we can get in the vitamin D department.

So, where do you fit into all of this? By winning this AMAZING prize pack, provided by Yoplait and my good friends at Blog Spark!
