Holiday Gift Guide 2011

Holiday Gift Guide- Street Surfing Wave 360 Review

11:56 AM





          I'm happy to tell you about Street Surfing today! Street Surfing is gearing up for the 2011 holiday season with several exciting products perfect for the entire family and an online Holiday Wish List. Street Surfing created the first casterboard in 2005 which was named, "The Wave". Street Surfing is also the first company to create the very first caster scooter, The Whiplash. These products are created with the elements of skateboarding, surfing, and snowboarding. Born in California, but ridden everywhere!

    






ABOUT THE WAVE 360 
(from their website)

"Building upon the concept of the original “Wave,” the revolutionary design of the Wave 360 provides the most versatile range of motion of any casterboard ever. The Wave 360 is the world’s first casterboard featuring 360 degree dual-directional technology on a traditional ABS board. Riders are able to perform a range of 360 and 180 degree spins that are the basis for new tricks. The lightweight design improves board speed and trick capabilities, while the overall riding experience is greatly enhanced. The Wave 360 takes board riding to the next level and provides adrenaline charged riders with a high-energy challenge."

     

     We had the great opportunity to review The Wave 360! The Wave 360 was sent to us super fast! We are very impressed with The Wave 360. The Wave 360 is fun to ride on and gives the ability to do many different tricks!







     I will admit that when I got onto The Wave 360, it was tricky to stay on it. It scared me at first because I have never tried anything like this product before. With much practice and tries it was easy to get the hang of it! Paul also had a struggle at first and it was hard to balance on the board. It gets easier with more practice and it is really a fun board to ride on! The 360 spins are amazing and fun!



      The Wave 360 offers:

  • Unlimited spins with the dual direction caster
  • Back and forth riding with the twin deck design
  • Tricks and stunts with the lightweight material
  • Perform 360 spins unlike any other board
     I would most definitely recommend anyone who tries this product to wear a helmet and protective gear, as does Street Surfing, for safety reasons!







This is the perfect holiday gift idea for the child or teenager in your life that are the age of 8+! It will guarantee them a fun time with a bunch of thrills!



We recommend this product to you!










BUY IT!

You can purchase The Wave 360 for $79.99!

Holiday Gift Guide- Kidorable Ladybug Rain Boots Review & Umbrella of Choice Giveaway

10:53 AM







     Kidorable is the place to go this holiday season for awesome gift ideas for children! Kidorable makes ordinary products into extraordinary with their fun styles of products to choose from for both boys and girls! Kidorable offers products like rain boots, rain coats, knit hats, towels, umbrellas, knit scarves and more!

     Kidorable has many designs and styles of their products to choose from that are adorable. Some of the designs include: lady bug, ballerina, butterfly, dragon knight, lucky cat, dinosaur, fireman, mermaid, just to name a few.

     The Kidorable website is designed for simple shopping and to find the products on their site simply. The Kidorable site has categories where you can find the products by the style or by the specific product line. I love the Kidorable site because it is set up for easy navigation!



ABOUT KIDORABLE
(from their website)

"In 1997, Kidorable sprung from the minds, hearts and efficiency apartment of Liping and Jonathan Domsky. They proclaimed, "The world needs someone to create children's apparel and accessories that are both functional and fun. We can do that." 

And so Kidorable was conceived. Starting with lions and cats and bears, oh my, manifested as umbrellas and hangers, Kidorable generated enough sales during its first year to break even and plant fruitful Kidorable seeds throughout the land. The following year sales grew ten fold. Every year since, give or take, a new style and/or product line debuted. And every year, the world joyfully embraced more Kidorable delights, give or take, than the year before."




     "More than just a pair of boots, these playful puddle magnets make a wonderful gift. Made of natural rubber, they are guaranteed to be the cutest boots in your neighborhood. All styles are available in My First (size 5), children’s sizes 6-13, plus young adult sizes 1 and 2."

     Kidorable was kind to send me a pair of Ladybug Rain Boots to review. I was impressed with the rain boots when they arrived. The quality of these boots are fantastic. The traction on the bottom of the boots look great! The rubber exterior is sturdy. The inner lining is soft and makes slipping the boots easy for children to do. I love that my niece can slip these rain boots on easily with no extra help needed!



     My niece was thrilled to wear her new ladybug boots to sport them around for everyone to see! These rain boots really bring out the fun in rain, keep the feet warm & dry, and are very fashionable for children! My niece also had fun wearing these boots to school, outside, and inside the house.



     
     I love that Kidorable also offers other similar products that match the ladybug boots. I love that I can also purchase a rain coat and umbrella to match the rain boots for a complete rain gear set! That's not all, I can also purchase other products that have the lady bug style as well like hangers, bookends, and backpacks.



     If you are looking for toddler rain boots, that are made with great quality and are absolutely adorable at the same time, then I recommend you check out Kidorable Rain Boots and order a pair! The boots will keep feet dry and wet free!




We definitely recommend the Kidorable Lady Bug Rain Boots to you!

Holiday Gift Guide: EatSmart Luggage Scale Review and Giveaway

11:26 AM

     

      The holidays are right around the corner and that means traveling to visit family and friends! I have a great product to introduce you to today. The Luggage Scale from EatSmart is perfect for helping weigh luggage at home before arriving at the airport! This product is convenient, and helps save time and hassles at the airport! EatSmart introduces, the Luggage Scale, that is compact, light weight, easy to store, and is a perfect gift idea this holiday season for the traveler in your life!

 
 ABOUT THE LUGGAGE SCALE

"The EatSmart Precision Voyager Luggage Scale is an ultra portable, lightweight travel accessory designed for anyone from the casual vacationer to the road warrior. After easily clipping onto the handle of your suitcase or bag, EatSmart's proprietary two handed SmartGrip design allows for easier lifting of even the heaviest bags. When your scale registers the weight, the scale will beep and your luggage weight will appear on the screen instantly. Its compact, durable design allows travelers to place it in their suitcase and bring on many trips Never worry about paying unexpected baggage fees again!"




Great features of the Luggage Scale:



- EatSmart's proprietary two handed SmartGrip designed Handles
- Compact & Lightweight Design
- Durable Strap & Easy Clip Buckle  
- 2 Measurement Modes: Pounds / Kilograms 
- Max Weight: 110 pounds / 50 kilograms
- 20 second Auto-Turnoff 
- Includes Lithium Battery  
- 2 Year Warranty


      

     I had the great opportunity to try out the Luggage Scale from EatSmart! EatSmart has great shipping. My review product arrived promptly and in great condition! I really love that the Luggage Scale is compact and is very simple to use. I love products that are simple to use and the Luggage Scale is very easy to use! I am so impressed on how fast and easy the Luggage Scale works.





     Paul and I used the EatSmart Luggage Scale to weigh a bag of Paul's to see what it weighs. The bag weighed 7.8 pounds. The Luggage Scale has an easy to use off and on button. Simply turn on the Luggage Scale with the on/off button, wait until the scale is at zero, and then the scale is ready to use! The scale will also beep to alert that the scale has finished weighing. The weight will then appear on the luggage scale. Press the on/off button again to turn it off when the scale is not in use. The scale has easy to use straps that are strong and buckle around luggage or bags. The handle on the Luggage Scale is a great size so it can fit any size of fingers. I love that the handle is roomy to accommodate different finger sizes and is easy to grip.




    

     The screen on the Luggage Scale lights up a blue color when it is in use. I love the fact that the screen lights up so you can use the luggage anywhere you are. I like that if you are outside in the dark or in an unlit room, you can still use the Luggage Scale and read the weight of the luggage with the help of the blue light. 
 
       To get an accurate scale reading, it is best to hold the EatSmart Luggage Scale perfectly upright! I also weighed the same bag on a bathroom scale that I have. I received the same exact weight reading! The Luggage Scale was a lot easier to use then the other scale though so I would definitely recommend using the Luggage Scale to weigh bags and luggage for an easy and accurate weight result!

     This product is perfect for every traveler out there! This product will save money and time by helping weigh luggage before arriving at the airport! Whether you know someone who is a casual vacationer or a road warrior, this luggage scale would be a great Christmas gift idea!

Holiday Gift Guide- Fitworks Utah - Amazing Deal $50 Holiday 1 Hr. Massage + Gift Box Special in South Jordan, Utah!

12:45 PM





     I'm happy to tell you about Fitworks Corrective Therapy today that is located in South Jordan, Utah. Fitworks Corrective Therapy is a company that specializes in healing pains that are in the body, all done naturally. Whether a person has neck pain, headaches, shoulder pains, back pains, hip pains, or countless other pains, Fitworks is the place to go to get pampered and to focus on healing yourself from these ongoing pains that can linger for years! Fitworks Corrective Therapy is the place you should go for a second opinion before a surgery. Gary, the founder, is usually, more than likely able to help fix the problem that is causing the pain before having back surgery or knee surgery.



ABOUT FITWORKS UTAH & FOUNDER, GARY RUMEL
(from his website)


"Gary Rumel is the founder of Fitworks LLC. He specializes in correcting Musculoskeletal imbalances. As a physiologist in 2000, Gary pioneered the method to correct Scoliosis, Lordosis, and Kyphosis naturally. He has taken 47 people off the waiting list that were scheduled for surgery. He has also developed "The Decompression Band" that helps to relieve bulging or herniated disc discomfort in the spine. By building and stretching specific muscle groups, the joints line up gradually for perfect posture and function. A balanced body over time...all done naturally!"


    

Gary is offering a great deal during this holiday season. He's offering an 1-hour massage for the amazing price of only $50. This offer will last throughout the holiday season! A $75 value for only $50.



Give a beautiful ready to give gift box to the person you love this holiday season! You will receive a beautiful ready to give gift box with ribbon around it when you purchase a 1-hr. massage.


     This is a great gift idea this holiday season for many wonderful people in our lives! This 1-hour massage would be great for:

1- The hard working men out there that provide for the family.
2. The full-time mommies that need a break and "me time".
3. The mother in your life that has raised you to be the person you are today
4. The amazing wife who deserves to be pampered
5. A grandmother who could use a massage to help her aches
6. A grandfather that could use a massage for his aches too
7. Parents who could use a relaxing massage
8. A Best friend who has been there for you
9. Anyone who has tight muscles that could use a massage to loosen up



     I definitely recommend Gary to you! I have been having Gary work with me to take away my pains and heal me for several months now. I have dealt with pain for 8 years due to a roll over car accident that I was in. Gary has helped me take away pains that I honestly thought I would have the rest of my life. When no one else was able to help take my pains away, Gary has been a blessing to me, because he helped take away pains and give me my life back. Gary has been amazing by helping many of my pains go away all by doing simple exercises in his office/workout room. Gary also does wonderful relaxing massages and focuses on the areas that need extra attention! I recommend Gary's massages. He listens to your needs and wants in a massage, does the right massage pressure to your liking, and focuses on properly covering clients at all times.


     I definitely recommend Fitworks Corrective Therapy, Gary Rumel, and the 1 Hr. Massage Deal to you!


      

    To purchase a 1-Hr. Massage + gift box for a holiday gift or stocking stuffer, simply reach Gary by phone for more details! Tell him "Natalie sent you" and he'll take care of you!
