Kellogg's Crunchy Nut Review


As most of you know I am a BzzAgent and I get to try things for free so that I can report back to my friends, and family on what we thought about the products. This time I got to try out Kellogg's Crunchy Nut Cereal, which before I even signed up for this BzzAgent campaign, I had gotten a great deal at the store paying only about .50 a box for each box of cereal I bought. We hadn't tried them yet, so they were just sitting back in our pantry. We didn't realize the Gold Mine we were sitting on.

Our family loves cereal, but only a few hit the mark where everyone in the house enjoys it. This cereal hit the mark and once the first box that was sent from BzzAgent arrived it didn't take long to go through all 10 boxes that I had in our pantry. Here you can see me snacking on some while watching some of the Kellogg's Crunchy Nut commercials on youtube.




The only problem we had is that the box was way too small for our large family, so we went through them pretty quickly. Other wise the price is about the going rate for cereal, but as you read I was able to get mine fairly cheap by combining a coupon that could be doubled at a store that was running a sale at the same time. I hope that there will be more coupons to get more, or at least a great sale so we can pick more up for our family. I am missing them already. We have however started on the Kellogg's flake cereal of the same brand, which I haven't personally tried, but my daughter assures me they are just as good.

I hope you get the chance to try them for yourself and stop back here and let me know how you liked them. You can also check out some of the sites below for more information about this cereal, and the other products Kellogg's offers.

Cafe Escapes Review






Being a BzzAgent is wonderful. I get to try new products and then tell my friends, family, and blog readers how much I enjoyed or didn't enjoy the products. I am happy to report that I was able to sample Café Escapes with some friends and family.

 
 
In my kit I was given.
  • Two four-count samplers:
  • One with Milk Chocolate Hot Cocoa, Dark Chocolate Hot Cocoa, Chai Latte and Café Mocha
  • One with two Café Caramels and two Café Vanillas
  • Pass-along coupons for $2 off any 12ct Café Escapes® K-Cup® packs



  •  
    Above you can see I am all set up for the party. The cups are my favorite gift my husband got me for Christmas. No need for sugar or cream, they were all perfectly flavored to use alone in our Keurig. This made me a true Keurig user, before these came along it was mainly my husband's machine, but now the whole family has found drinks, and uses for it.
     
    I am not a big coffee drinker, but I love hot cocoa, and tea. These Café Escapes gave me something new and grown up to drink, with flavors I was craving. The hot cocoa's were a given but I was really surprised by how wonderful the Chai Lattes were and the Café Caramels were divine.
     
    People were really happy to receive coupons to try Café Escapes. I wish I had more to pass out, or at least some to use for myself. These were yummy.. They run about 11.99 for a 16ct package, but I am sure if you wait for a sale, you can you can get them much cheaper. If you are like me you will be on the look out for coupons to make them even more affordable and then stock up when the price is right.
     
    The only thing I can say is that I wish I was given more samples and coupons. Thinking back I wish I had hid them all away for myself to enjoy at my leisure.

    Tom's of Maine Wicked Cool Toothpaste Review

     
    Recently I was sent a sample from smiley360 to try Tom's of Maine Wicked Cool Toothpaste which is recommended for children ages 8+. My 10 year old thinks we should but this from now on, and my 15 year old was quick to point out neat the box was with the peace sign on it. I totally missed that. My 5 year old was bummed because I wouldn't let her try it because of the recommended age. 

    
    
     
    Above you can see what I got in my kit. My Smiley360 mission card, and a nice 1.00 off coupon for me to use to purchase more. Wish they had sent coupons to hand out to people I spoke with about it though.
     
     
     I also got a sample of Tom's of Maine Wicked Toothpaste for my girls to try. Love the designs all over the box, makes it that much more cooler for the kiddies.
     
    Below you can see the review my girls did for Tom's of Maine Wicked Cool Toothpaste. I think they did a good job. They did this with no practice and not knowing how the toothpaste was going to taste.
    My 10 year old says she wants me to buy this from now on, while my 15 year old thought it was a bit too fruity for her, but was quick to point out how neat the box was when she saw the Peace Signs which made it an instant hit with her.  
     
     


     
     
    The only thing I have a problem with is that it is a bit expensive for our budget, but if I find it on sale and have a coupon I will pick some up. Other then that it was a winner with my family.
    I would love for our family to have a chance to be able to try out more of their products.

    We had never tried their products before but will be more willing to try them in the future. Thank you smiley360 and Tom's of Maine for the sample.
