Mama Palooza Giveaway- Expressionery.Com
CLOSED
Congratulations! Winner #41 The Bradley Family
Add a personal touch to every note, letter or gift with custom-printed stationery and a wide range of stationery supplies. Featuring unique designs, from sophisticated monograms to cute & classic holiday gift tags, our collection of printed stationery, custom stampers, embossers, book plate labels, invitations and even embossed napkins can make every occasion and correspondence just a bit more special.
Expressionery has some nice products that can be personalized to fit every occasion. One of their products in particular really caught my eye. Their line of Personalized Plates in a variety of designs would make the perfect gift for mom this year. Personalize one with a sentimental photo or have a special quote printed on one to present to her this holiday. What about putting some of her favorite treats on the plate wrapping it up with some clear wrap and a pretty bow? Then after she finishes her goodies she can display her beautiful keepsake plate for all to see. That's my plan! I was given the opportunity to choose one of these designer melamine plates for review. After going back and forth between a couple of different designs I chose Sunset Rose Plate because I thought it looked particularly Mother's Day-y.
As you can see I had "Love You Mom" printed on it and I think it looks great. My mother loves to feast on gourmet cheeses and cured meats so I plan to buy her a sampling of some of her favorites and wrapping them up on her plate to present to her with a bottle of her favorite red wine. Perfect gift! Want to win one of these lovely personalized plates to present to your mom this Mother's Day?

Venettini Review and Giveaway
CLOSED
Congratulations! Winner #84 nightowl
For almost 20 years, Venettini has been designing and manufacturing luxury children’s footwear with a large emphasis on fashion and style. Founded in 1989, Venettini enjoys a strong cult following. The brand has grown organically and steadily under the management of Kinderland, Inc., a family business dedicated to designing, manufacturing, and distributing high-end and luxury children’s footwear. Fashion, fit, and comfort drive Venettini’s designs, and we will continue to make feet look good and feel happy.
I was given the opportunity or more accurately my little girl Penelope was given the opportunity to review a pair of Venettini shoes of my choice. Talk about a tough decision to make! This company makes high quality, European, not to mention super cute shoes for little feet.
I chose to review the Hilary in black patent.

Patent upper with a bow decorating the toe.
Elastic around the collar provides a comfortable fit.
Hook-and-loop closure for easy on and off.
Breathable leather lining and a cushioned leather footbed.
Flexible rubber outsole.
Adorable! These look like doll shoes and I absolutely love them. OK, I know I am not the one wearing them so what does Penelope think about her new pair of shoes. She loves them too! As soon as she saw these cuties she wanted them on her feet and has since been wearing them everyday. And that's just around the house! Seriously I am not exaggerating from the time she wakes up she puts what she calls her "princess shoes" on and prances around in them. I was very impressed with the quality and look of these shoes. They also appear to be very comfortable with a soft flexible sole. If only they made them in my size... You can purchase Venettini shoes on Zappos and Shoes.com and many specialty shoe retailers nationwide. You can also like Venettini on facebook and follow on Twitter to keep informed about new styles and promotions.

TheraBreath Review and Giveaway
CLOSED
Congratulations! Winner #20 Roshana
Do you ever wake up in the morning with a bad taste in your mouth and the dreaded "morning breath"? Perhaps you worry when you are up close and personal with someone that your breath might not be the freshest. Do you suffer from bad breath? I know this may not be a topic that people like to discuss but it is actually something that many people suffer from. In fact TheraBreath has treated over 1,000,000 people world wide to solve their problems of bad breath and unpleasant mouth taste. TheraBreath is the world's most advanced line of oral care and creator Dr. Katz stands by his products and personally guarantees that his formulas will work for you. Most of us are misinformed about the causes of bad breath. TheraBreath's website has a wealth of information and research articles to help you understand both the causes and how to remedy them. Even if you are one of the lucky ones that does not suffer from bad breath TheraBreath also carries other oral care products designed for healthy gums, teeth whitening, dry mouth, tonsil stones, and even a line of probiotics. I was given three TheraBreath products for review and have been using them daily.
TheraBreath Toothpaste

TheraBreath Oral Rinse
"Stop your bad breath and end chronic halitosis by using TheraBreath Oral Rinse after brushing with TheraBreath Toothpaste. This amazing rinse uses the odor-obliterating power of OXYD-8 for treating bad breath, stopping halitosis and eliminating sour, bitter and metallic tastes in your mouth." The same things I said about TheraBreath Toothpaste can also be said about this oral rinse. I have been using it everyday as part of my mouth cleaning regimen.
TheraBreath Mouth Wetting Lozenges
"Our unique Lozenges are unlike any breath mint you have ever tried. They work in three distinct stages to make sure your mouth is fresh, moist, and healthy. This three stage approach is not only unique, but incredibly effective at controlling bad breath odor." Did you know that healthy saliva contains a high concentration of oxygen which inhabits bad breath. Therefore the drier your mouth is, the greater your chance is of having bad breath. These mints help create saliva to keep your mouth moist. They also have a minty taste that help to eliminate odors quickly. Unlike the two other products I mentioned these mints are actually very minty. They start off with a very pleasant citrus-y scent but the minty taste quickly takes over. When I first tried these I was a little put off with how strong they were. I decided to give them a second chance and have since started to actually enjoy them. I pop one in my mouth after brushing and then again whenever I feel the need to freshen up.
All in all I believe that TheraBreath products are definitely high quality products that work and I would recommend them to anyone who is concerned with oral health.
TheraBreath has allowed me to give one of GGG's readers the chance to win TheraBreath Toothpaste and TheraBreath Oral Rinse.
To Enter: Visit TheraBreath and tell me a product you are interested in trying. You can also get extra entries for liking TheraBreath on Facebook and following them on Twitter. And as usual you can also get extra entries for following GGG through GFC, Subscribing via email, liking us on Facebook and following via Twitter.

Swanson Health Products Review and Giveaway
CLOSED
Congratulations! Winner #16 cw
Recently I was given the opportunity to review several products from Swanson Health Products. Swanson Health Products was founded in 1969 with the goal and desire of bringing health and wellness to the world. They carry a vast array of products varying from supplements and vitamins to bath and beauty products and even healthy foods and more. Shopping on their site can be a little overwhelming with all the items they offer but it's almost certain you will find what you are looking for. You can even search for products based on health concern, which is pretty handy. I am a big believer in natural and organic products and love the variety that Swanson Health Products offers. "Swanson Health Products sells discount vitamins and supplements, organic foods, natural skincare products, homeopathic remedies and more at the lowest possible prices. From old favorites like vitamin D, fish oil and weight loss supplements to health food products like organic coconut oil, you won’t find a better value anywhere else. In fact, we guarantee it—we guarantee our prices, our service and our quality. So start shopping and enjoy the savings."
Here are just a few of the products that Swanson Health Products carries and that I was given the chance to try.





"
Warm up your home with the smell of fresh baked bread with Something Good Classic Bread Mix. Gluten free, this simple white bread is easy to mix and bake. It makes a medium sized loaf that is light with a subtle taste. It can be made ahead of time and frozen until you need it. Free of gluten, wheat, dairy, egg, peanut, tree nut, soya and fructose." This stuff is perfect if you are on a gluten or dairy free diet and it really is very simple to make. For those not watching their dairy intake you have the option of adding butter and egg to the mix which I did and it made a very fresh and tasty loaf of bread. Australis Foods also makes a few other food products for people on a gluten free or vegan diet. Swanson Health Products even has gluten free as a search option when shopping.

You can get all these products and many more at http://www.swansonvitamins.com/. Also be sure to follow them on Facebook for info on new products and promotions.
