Arthur The King Opening in Theaters March 15, 2023

I have been seeing trailers for the below movie for a while now and I can't wait to see it. I am sure it will be a rollercoaster of emotions so make sure to bring some tissues. I can just feel that this is one of those heart-wrenching good kinds of movies. Check out the trailer below. 

#AD Experience a true story of friendship and survival. #ArthurTheKing – only in theaters March 15th. #RWM

Just look at the below picture I want to know why they are carrying Arthur. What do you think may be going on?

Of course I don't know which order these photos go in but it looks like he has a load of fans cheering him and the team on here. 

I wonder what is going on in this photo. Boy, do I want to see this movie? So excited.

 *Post sponsored by Best Buy. All opinions are my own. 

Today Captain Marvel hits the shelves and with that if you are into collecting or just want a really cool edition check out the Collectible SteelBook which includes custom box art that can only be found at Best Buy. 

In our family we have always been big Super Hero movie, comic book, and show fans. I know Marvel has been really flooding the screens with their movies lately and we are loving it. Check out The Collectible SteelBook at Best Buy and join in the fun.

My husband really likes the SteelBook format for media like this because the cases are more durable and support a nice artistic design that isn't always found on the standard box form. Below you can see pictures of what you will get in the SteelBook format.

Cutting the cord is easier then you might think. For us it started out as a way to save a big chunk of change per month. After a while we didn't miss it at all. Then came streaming TV, and our lives opened up to not just DVD's but movies, shows, and then most recently to shows that were shown on TV that we can get for free the day after. Not to mention HD Antenna's which bring free broadcasting channels to you in crystal clear form. Except for when there is a storm then you just find another channel. FREE never sounded so good. 

Honestly our children's wishlist's went down by a mile when we cut the cord which was money savings we hadn't thought of until we saw the difference in our budget. Sometimes one change can really make a big difference in your life and this is one we are glad we made.

HP Envy x360 Laptop

*Post sponsored by Best Buy. All opinions are my own. 

My favorite computer has always been an HP. Now that I am exclusively on a laptop my first pick was an HP. They have never let me down. I have to be honest and say I am a bit envious over the HP Envy x360 Laptop that I am going to tell you about. Pretty sure this is my next electronic device to save up for. 

Right now before I even get into the specs and awesomeness I want you to know that there is a deal right now till 7/28/2018 for $100.00 off of either the 13 or 15 inch HP Envy x360 Laptop at BestBuy. The links can be found below. 

HP Envy x360 Laptop available in 13 inch

                                                          15 inch

Here is the list of things you an expect from the HP Envy x360 Laptop

Windows 10 operating system

Windows 10 brings back the Start Menu from Windows 7 and introduces new features, like the Edge Web browser that lets you markup Web pages on your screen.

Built for Windows Ink

Quickly jot down notes and ideas with ease.

Full HD touch screen

The 1920 x 1080 resolution boasts impressive color and clarity. Natural finger-touch navigation makes the most of Windows 10. IPS technology for wide viewing angles. Energy-efficient WLED backlight.

8GB system memory for advanced multitasking

Substantial high-bandwidth RAM to smoothly run your games and photo- and video-editing applications, as well as multiple programs and browser tabs all at once.

360° flip-and-fold design

Offers versatile functionality with laptop, audience, tabletop, presentation and tablet modes.

What sold me besides it being a HP product is that it will take the place of my tablet. It is a 2-in-1 device that transforms in seconds from laptop to tablet. I can write on it with my stylus thanks to the Windows Ink capabilities and Windows operating system. I am in love. What is best is that it is thin and light so you can take it almost anywhere you need to go. So helpful on the job, at home, school, college, or even for us bloggers who like to be near somewhere to write 24/7.

LG Twin Wash System with LG SideKick pedestal

We are personally in the market for a new washer and dryer. While shopping we stopped to look at the LG Twin Wash System. My husband has had a love for LG products ever since our cell phones of years past to current. He fell in love with the tiny wash machine as he said it or the LG SideKick pedestal washer as it is formally known at first site and I didn't even tell him this is the one I would be writing about. He instantly came up with tons of things it would be useful for.  

Having a family there is always something happening. Yucky, nasty, stinky things. Things you don't always want to wash with the rest of your laundry. This little washer is perfect for these sorts of things. Other uses which we came up with and always seems to happen is needing an outfit, or uniform that needs to be ready for later in the day or in the morning. This is perfect and you don't have to search the house to make a full load or waste water on a full load if all the wash is done. 

Not only do these washers have mega capacity to tackle any size load, they are energy efficient which we love, while giving you the best cleaning performance. No wonder more households have chosen LG laundry over any other brand!

We love that it can be used independently or at the same time as the larger washer over top.  Alas we didn't settle on a washer and dryer because my husband wants to save a bit more to get this set. Am I excited? I sure am. My husband is the one who usually goes with the middle model but with us aging, down from six to, two children at home with grand children already sprouting he wants me to have a great set. Hoping to catch the sale for an extra $500 off with the deal below.

From 1/11-4/25 receive up to $500 off a LG laundry solution for your home.Check out this special offer here.

Divatress your Style

This is a sponsored post. All opinions are mine.

I love to see the different ways people do their hair and that includes weaves, wigs, color, and cuts. With divatress the African American women has their choice of weaves, wigs, and much more. Doesn't matter if you like it short and funky. Or long and straight. Divatress has you covered. 

They have color and even wigs for the more mature look. I was super surprised by all of the styled they have available. 

Not to bring up the big C word but I told my family if I ever get it and lose my hair I want big bold color to shake it up a bit and bring a bit of color and laughter to everyone I see. With Divatress they aren't meant to be funny of course. They are beautiful, fun, and functional wigs for going out on the town, work, or even to the clubs. 

I looked even further into Divatress and they have you covered with your natural hair too with great products to keep your hair healthy and moisturized. When you pick out your hair style don't forget to check out the Beauty section tom complete your look. Make up, makeup accessories, eyelashes, nails, and hair styling needs.  

Check them out I am sure you will enjoy what they have and if you purchase please share a picture below with your new wig, weave, or product from Divatress.

Unleash the Clean Squad on the Toilet

Do you remember my last post about cleaning up your picnic table before and after eating? If not you can see it here. Since then we have found that we love the new spray bottle that uses up every last bit in the bottle. This is awesome and hope to see more cleaners using this idea. We also had to make another trip to pick up more Viva paper towels and Clorox Clean up. Like I said these are our favorite products.

• Viva Big Rolls: 40% more Viva per roll* Must include this prominent disclaimer: *Towel area compared to Viva® Regular Roll; Current practice is use of “33% More”

• Clorox: 99.9% germ killing strength; It’s specially designed to clean and disinfect a variety of stains on a variety of surfaces. And with Smart Tube Technology®, you can spray every last drop. Bad news for germs, good news for family relations.

My daughter Dorothy loves to help out shopping and couldn't wait to get in some pictures with some of the products.

Our next big spot in our home we #Unleashthecleansquad on is the Bathroom, especially on and around our toilet. We have been living in a motel while we have been looking for a new place to live. With that being said we kind of took over ownership of our room doing all of the cleaning and just trade out the towels and sheets to the maids. It is one less thing they have to do and keeps us up with what we would normally do in our own home. 

Now we clean our toilet often but for some reason this toilet moves around a bit (probably for quick jobs when something goes wrong) so it is constantly dirty around the base. 

Look at our before and after photos to see for yourself what Clorox Clean-up and Viva Paper Towels can do when you Unleash the Clean Squad.

My main areas I like to keep clean in our home are the Bathroom and the Kitchen. These are the places that Clorox Clean-up and Viva Paper Towels are used most. Unleash the clean squad and see what it can do for your home.

Order fresh groceries online with Walmart and enjoy the same in-store savings with free pickup. Walmart will even load your car! Click here to see if it's available in your area! We do not have this service available in our area yet.

You can also use Walmart's Bundle Page where you can save even more.**

Surviving the day with belVita Biscuits

My Story

Our family tried belVita Biscuits out about two years ago for the very first time. Me of course being the mom who likes to get the most for our family's buck, bought them on sale with a coupon for maximum savings, while also stocking up.

I had originally bought them for my children who are always rushed in the morning and sometimes need a quick breakfast to get them started for the day. What I found was that my whole family really enjoyed these and kept asking for more. I don't think there is a variety or flavor they don't like. I even gave them a whirl one day when I knew I had to be out and about all day long.

They travel well, and when eaten with fruit and a dairy product they provide 4 hours of steady nutritious energy. This is when I fell in love with belVita Biscuits myself. Being a busy on the go mother who also blogs, I often forget to feed myself when I am writing or out and about running errands. I learned just by popping belVita biscuits, fruit and a stick of frozen string cheese into my bag or placing them near my desk I was really keeping my energy flowing.

The belVita biscuits are also great for stashing in your car, diaper bag, backpack, gym bag, or sports bag for on the go snacks that will keep you going all day long. Just having them in my car saves the say when you pick up a hungry child after school. Surviving the day with belVita Biscuits is easy and nutritious, not to mention delicious

Shopping for belVita Biscuits is super easy at Walmart. Our local store has a sidekick or what some might consider a 4 way with the belVita Biscuit line but you can also find them in the Cracker Isle if your store does not have the display.








I am really excited to try out some of the new flavors below.
.

Flavor:

• belVita Breakfast Biscuit Bites in Cinnamon Brown Sugar (NEW)
• belVita Breakfast Biscuits in Toasted Coconut(NEW) or Blueberry
• belVita Breakfast Sandwiches in Strawberry Yogurt or Vanilla Yogurt (BOTH NEW)

belVita is also available in several other forms and flavors for all day snacking
• Biscuits- great for any morning
• Bites- great for on-the-go
• Sandwiches: savor the yummy creme inside


All of the new flavors from belVita Biscuits that I tried are a hit with the whole family. My favorite way to start my day blogging is by having a bowl of yogurt with frozen fruit topped with crumbled toasted almost belVita biscuits.

You can easily crumble biscuits in bag and then pour on your fruit topped yogurt. A great way for a energy boost to keep me blogging right up to lunch time.





There is also a great ibotta offer available right now  (sign up with my ibotta code if you don't already have this app and gain 10.00)*subject to change without notice, as well as other opportunities when you return to your nearest participating Walmart on Saturday, January 7th or Sunday, January 8th for a special belVita  Biscuits Breakfast in-store event. Each location will offer belVita Biscuits Breakfast samples, exclusive savings, smoothies, giveaways, and more. Check for Walmart store near you.

Groupon for Fashion that will take you into the New Year

This is a sponsored post. All opinions are mine.




The New Year is just round the corner and we all know we like to start out on the right foot. My favorite way is to start with some new clothes. Groupon had deals to get you through the Holidays and it will take you into the New Year with style too. My favorite Groupon page for myself is of course Lane Bryant. There are lots of deals to save you lots of money on a new look. 

For my older girls I take off to Rue 21 for great deals through Groupon. Rue 21 has great prices already but add on some coupons from Groupon and you really go wild. With Swagbucks you can even save more by earning points that can be turned in for gift cards to many places. Believe me it is easy to do and adds up quickly if you do online shopping.

The first sites I check out for deals is Groupon, Ebates, Swagbucks, and Mypoints. I want more for my buck so that I can do more for my family and sites like these really stretch my dollar which helps me stay on budget and come under budget many more times then I can count.

Also remember Groupon is here all year round so you can always be sure to find a great deal on an items you are looking for, which reminds me the girls need new undergarments so I better get shopping to see what I can find.

Groupon Goods to the Rescue

Groupon Goods

Has you

covered for the 

Holidays 

and all year around.

Trying to finish up your Holiday Shopping? Groupons might be a great place to check to see if they have something you have been looking for, with free shipping with a 34.99 purchase (prices subject to change).

With Groupon Goods you can find great deals on what is left on your Holiday Wish Lists like these products. Even though I am done with Christmas shopping I have made a wishlist for items like this which my family will love to play once summer rolls around.

I love how easy it is to look through the ideas, search for an exact product, and most of all the great savings I see on each item. I keep a running list of ideas for my family and of course for myself so when we have a little extra I can snag a good deal when it rolls around and then tuck it away for the Holidays, Birthday's , Anniversaries, etc.

If you find that certain person who you just can't decide what to get or have no clue where to even begin Groupon has you covered there. Just pick up a gift card and let them pick something out for themselves. Oh and why you are there pick up a thing or two for yourself I know I will.
