Date Night – Movies

Thanks to Erasmo Cortez for his guest post.

Do you and your husband or long term boyfriend have standing date nights that you keep on the calendar to make things more fun and interesting and to make sure that you don’t lose the spark in your relationship? I do this with my husband and I’m going to be honest, sometimes date night rolls around and we both look at each other and really don’t want to put forth the effort to do it. We kind of sigh and roll our eyes and say, “come on let’s get this over with.” I think on one hand it is kind of sad but on the other hand we are just so comfortable with each other that we can feel okay with not wanting to go on a date sometimes. I decided on the last date night when it was my turn that we would take the kids to their grandparent’s for the night and we were going to watch marathon movies on Direct.TV while eating junk food and lounging on the couch kid free, it was awesome!

Walgreens and Express Scripts

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

If you are a customer of Walgreens and Express Script, then more than likely you have heard that Walgreens was negotiating with Easy Scripts and came to a decision to offer discounts and other perks for their customers.  I’m sure the idea of losing customers was a concern with Walgreens, but I’m glad to see they decided to do what they could do for their customers.   Times are a little tough right now and any savings on our health care is a bonus and I think Walgreens is supporting this for their customers.

Here is what Walgreens plans to do for their customers.  A special discount in January for Express Scripts members on the annual membership fee for  Walgreens Prescription Savings Club; a boost to Walgreen’s pharmacist and consultant staff, including adding call-center personnel; contacting high-volume patients; and offering coupons for discounted health and wellness products and gift cards to some Express Scripts members. I love coupons!!

For $10 a year, a family membership covers everyone in your immediate family, including a spouse, dependents 22 and younger and pets. Individuals may join for $5. Join and receive discount prices on your prescriptions.  This sounds like a great deal for a family and much savings.

These savings can add up on more than 8,000 brand name and generic prescriptions, flu shots, pet prescriptions, nebulizers and diabetic supplies.

Show your support, like I have,  with Walgreens on Twitter and Walgreens on Facebook

Packit Lunch Boxes

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of PackIt for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Picture 17

Its been a long time since I have had to send a lunch box with my son to school and I remember the problems he constantly complained about.  Why can’t I have this kind of sandwich?  Because I couldn’t keep it cool enough to deem it safe enough for him to eat at lunch.  The cool packs just didn’t stay cool long enough.  So, it was always PB & J for lunch.  Virtually every time he took his lunch.

But not anymore and if any of you moms out there have had this problem, check out PackIt lunch boxes!

These are so neat and they stay cool for hours and you don’t have to worry if your child might loose the ice pack, because the ice pack is built into the lunch box!!

And yoy know me.  I’m always looking for a deal and here is one with these nice Packit lunch boxes.  They are running a BOGO deal right now where you can get 2 of these for only $19.95!!  WOOHOO!!

Check out this video:

These make great Christmas gifts and I know Mr. G would love one to take to work with him.  These are not just for the kiddies.  Adults would love these to take to work.  Don’t pay high prices for a nice lunch when you can bring your own.

Let me know in the comments what you would pack in your own Packit Lunch Box.

Vintage Necklaces

I’m the first to say that I love to wear jewelry around my wrist, neck or finger when I go out on a special date with my hubby.  I also love it for everyday wear that will last for many years.  I’m tired of paying good money for jewelry that only fades or I will end up throwing out.  I want jewelry with a classic look that will last for years.

I found a great website that sells this kind of jewelry called J’Aime Jewels. I love the selection of jewelry they have. There is so much to look at with great prices and wonderful ideas for gifts for me to choose from this year.   So many different styles to choose from and very unique and elegant.  All the jewelry is made from the finest gemstones and one of a kind pieces that every woman would love to have in her collection.

After checking out all the different collections J’Aime Jewels offers, my favorite is the necklace in the picture above just grabbed my eye!!  It comes from the Andaman Sea collection made with  vintage Lucite and 24k Vermeil and loaded with  gorgeous flower and leaf charms.    This necklace is just part of the Andaman Sea collection which also includes stunning earrings to match.

With Christmas just around the corner, I never know what to get my mom.  Until this year.  I saw some beautiful vintage necklaces which she would love to wear and show off.

Are you needing some vintage, one of a kind and classic looking necklaces for a gift this year or maybe for yourself?  Check out JaimeJewelry.com.

Puppies vs Babies?? Which is Cuter?

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Puppies vs. Babies for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

PvB-CuteDar-Green-300x250-Backup.jpg

I have entered many contests in my life, but I have never had to make such a hard decision as in this contest.

How can anyone choose between Puppies vs. Babies?  Lets look at both of them.

Babies – cute, cuddly, smell good, adorable, adorable little smiles, cutest little feet ever and you just want to pinch their little cheeks!

Puppies – cute, cuddly, smell good, nice puppy breath, precious expressions, carry around with you in your purse and endless love and joy!

Well, those descriptions didn’t help much with deciding which is cuter.  And you could look at the extreme end of babies and puppies.  There are some ugly babies out there.  When I was pregnant with my son, I went to see Rocky 2.  When they showed that baby on the screen, I gasped.  I just knew my baby was going to have a head of hair like that baby did.   But, instead he was born with no hair.  He was such a cute baby!!

Boxer puppy

And there are some really ugly puppies out there too.  How about those hairless dogs with muppet fuzzy stuff on their tails and heads!!  YUK!!   Or a Chihuahua puppy.  It looks like a little rat!  And all they do is shake all the time.

But all my past boxer puppies are some of the cutest little puppies ever born.  Now that is a dog with some substance.  NO muppet hair or rat looking body.

Look at the face in the picture to the left.  How can you not love that little wrinkled up face and that stubbly little tail while it shakes his whole body when he is happy.

But back to me original question.  What is cuter.  Puppies or Babies?  I just can’t decide!!  But maybe I can be persuaded to one side if I hear from you guys.

Here is your chance to voice your opinion with a Puppies vs. Babies online contest. How much fun this can be to see how everyone else feels.  Come on and join the fun and vote!!
