UNREAL Candy Review

I am a BzzAgent and I get to try some products out for free, so that I can tell my friends and family how good or bad they are. When I saw the UNREAL Candy we just had to give it a try. I was sent one free product coupon, and 3 Buy 1 Get 1 Free coupons. I went to CVS to pick ours up. So far this is the only store I see that carries them. They only had 3 flavors out of the 5 available so I used my free coupon and 1 of the Buy 1 Get 1 Free coupons.




I bought the UNREAL5 Chocolate Caramel Nougat Bar Unjunked, UNREAL8 Chocolate Caramel Peanut Nougat Bar Unjunked, and the UNREAL54 Candy Coated Chocolates with peanuts Unjunked. I would have really loved to try the Peanut butter cups but they didn't have them.




A few days after we bought them the family sat down and divided the candy up into pieces. The below picture is the UNREAL54 Candy Coated Chocolates with Peanuts Unjunked, the colors aren't pretty at all, but I do have to say that I found these camparable to M&M's, although my husband said no way, but did agree they are better then the no name brand of the same sort of candy. These were only a few of the candies, you get a lot more then what is pictured.

 

 
 
The next one we tried was the UNREAL5 Chocoalte Caramel Nougat Bar Unjunked. Now this was very close to a Milky Way Bar which I totally don't like but since I wanted to try as many of the candies as the store had I bought it. Like Milky Way I didn't like this at all so my husband ended up being the tester on this more then the mere bite I took. Of course he didn't like it either because he isn't a fan of Milky Way either. Even though the chocolate was creamy, it just was not for us.
 
The third Candy we tried was the UNREAL8 Chocolate Caramel Peanut Nougat Bar Unjunked. This was creamy, and good. This was like a Snickers Bar but different. I enjoyed this very much. I do wish they would make them as big as the competors bars because for the price you pay for these, well not in my case but the regular price of these candies is 1.19 a piece, which I think is quite steep. I like to get candy for under .50, with the Buy 1 Get 1 Free coupon it was close.
 
If you are looking for a Candy that doesn't have all of the junk in it, this may be for you. I know I liked the taste of the chocolate it was very smooth and flavorful. I didn't have the aftertaste others had said they had, and still would love to try the Peanut Butter Cup Version so that I could give the UNREAL Candy Unjunked line my full review but as of yet they still only have the 3 flavors that I already tried above. They do however have the huge bags of them, but I am not willing to put that much money out before trying a smaller package of them first.
 
I hope you have enjoyed my review and decide to give the UNREAL Candy Line a try, and don't be afraid to stop back and let me know what you thought about it.

Scents of Marksville

I am a BzzAgent and I get to try products out for free or for a big discount, and then tell my friends, family, and readers all about them. This time I was given the opportunity to try out the Glad Expressions Collection.
 
Below is my coupon pack that included free coupons for the Glade Expressions Fragrance Mist starter kit in which I bought the Cotton & Italian Mandarin, and a Glade Expressions Oil Diffuser starter kit. We decided on Pineapple & Mangasteen. There were also extra coupons for me to pass onto friends and family. They went quickly. Most people know if I am on to a good deal they should probably jump in too.



 
 
What I like most about Glad products is that they are affordable and usually you can get some pretty awesome coupons in the Sunday Supplements. Glade is also coming out with different fragrances so that we can change it up as much as our lives change. There must be a fragrance that everyone will lean towards. I really like how they made the mist bottle so that the outside sticker comes off and then you can keep in the room making it look like a piece of your decor instead of a unsightly can. The Oil Diffuser even goes a bit further and goes with just about any decor except maybe cat box, but hey it might work for someone. Either way they both do the job, and make it so plesent to walk into our home.
 
I am not sure if the kids are changing out the cat box more often or if the Glad fragrances are masking the smell but I know now when I walk in my home I don't smell our kitty box, which is the most embarrassing thing for us. You don't want the first smell for people who are visiting to smell to be an unclean cat box, just is not a good start at all.

Perdue Oven Ready Products


 
Perdue Oven Ready
 
I am a Bzzagent which means I get to try products for free or for a reduced price, then tell my friends, and family all about my experience with the product or service I have tried. This time I was able to take part in trying out the Perdue Oven Ready Products. As you can see below we chose to try the Roaster.
 
 
 
 
 
 

Oven ready whenever you are
Cooking a delicious roasted chicken at home is a whole lot easier with PERDUE® OVEN READY Products. All you need is an oven and an appetite. Deliciously seasoned and ready to cook perfectly in a convenient cook-in bag, every PERDUE® OVEN READY Roast is designed for no prep, no mess and easy clean-up. It's easier than easy. Just:
  1. Open.
  2. Cook.
  3. Serve!
No joke. Just open the outer bag, place the inner bag in the oven and bake for about 90 minutes.* The cook-in bag helps you put incredibly juicy, tender chicken on the table for your family.
*Cook time varies per product; see details on package for cooking instructions.

 
 
Here I am opening the bag.
 
 
 
 
Now I am taking it out of the bag that it was sold in and seeing that the chicken is actually in a cooking bag inside, which means easy clean up if everything works out right.

 
Here I am putting the holes in the bag as is required.

 
 
There it is in the pan all ready to go.

 
Here I am reading the bag to be sure I don't have to do anything else, thinking this is too easy.

 
I would have loved to have another picture of the finnished product but by the time I got the camera out someone had already started to dig into the chicken.
 
 
Once it was cooked and apparently started to be sampled before I could grab my camera. I have to say that the meat was moist. The only thing I really didn't like is that the bag stuck to the chicken so when we took it out of the oven to serve and peeled the bag away it also took some of the meat with it, so it wasn't a perfect presentation but for a family dinner at home with no guests it was just perfect, by the way there were no leftovers when my family was done.
 
Will I purchase this product again? I sure will as long as it is on sale and I have a coupon. I plan to purchase the cornish hens next for a special meal for my husband and I to enjoy, which I will probably do another blog to see if the bag does the same thing to the meat or not.
 
I would encourage anyone who wants to put a nice meal on the table who doesn't want to clean up a lot to check out Perdue Oven Ready Products because they might be your answer to a great dinner with family.

Afrin No Drip Nasal Spray Review

As most of you know I am a BzzAgent and I get to try products for free or at a reduced price and then tell my friends, family, and even complete strangers what I thought about the product. This time I was given a full size sample of Afrin No Drip Original Pump Mist with 12 Hour Relief.
I get congested in the winter months so this was a perfect item for me to try. The first time I used it I did have drips but only because I forgot to sniff in, when I administered it to the second nostril I didn't have any drips at all. There was also nothing nasty tasting going down my throat. Within a few minutes I could feel my nose draining which for me is down my throat, but again there was no aftertaste, which is wonderful for me, getting high marks for the I will use it again factor.
The only problem after using it is I felt that my throat and nose were dry, as if they needed to be moisturized. I don't want anyone to be congested but if you ever do find yourself looking at the shelf in the store laden with so many products why not pick yourself up Afrin No Drip and give it a try. You can get more information about Afrin at theAfrin website.

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.
