All views expressed are the honest opinion of Just Say I Told You So, based on product usage. 

There is just nothing like the smell of clean laundry, you know? Well except for the clean part... that is absolutely better then just smelling clean! LOL

I have been a longtime Purex lover. I love the way it makes my clothes feel and smell. Purex is freshness I can feel. And Purex plus Clorox 2 is the crème de la crème... it's soooo good!

I used Purex plus Clorox 2 on a load of towels that had been used to wash the car and they came out fresh and clean as a whistle. I also used it on my bed linens. But the real test was my dark clothes, because darks seem to collect a ton of dirt, but Purex handled it!

I cannot say enough about the great scent and bright clean! Except for the fact that it is also a smart value, you get a lot of bang for your buck with Purex. 

But don't take my word for it, I want you to try it for yourself. That's why I'm giving away a coupon for a free bottle to two lucky winners!

I love, love, love bedding! Why? Because my bedroom is my sanctuary. It's the place that I feel the most at home. It's the place where I do my best thinking. Where I am free to emote, lounge, rest, rejuvenate, and recharge. 

Can you tell I love my bedroom???

So I've got a new favorite brand... Lush Decor! Yes, they sell more than bedding, but the bedding is what caught my eye - first.

Gorgeous romantic comforters + pillows. Eye-popping quilts with beautiful patterns and fabulous colors! 

I feel like I've died and gone to bedding heaven! LOL

The images above happen to be some of my personal favorite Lush Decor items... simply stunning, don't you agree?

But you can also order products direct on the LushDecor site... where you can use this code (LOVELUSH1) to get 10% off your next purchase.

Need to save some time + moola this year? 4 ways to save right now!

1. Chuck Starbucks - If you have a thing for frappes, you can buy a 4-pack at the market + a pint of ice cream. Blend. Homemade frappe heaven is what that is! Totally delicious + so much easier on your purse.
2. Cut off cable - You can watch a ton of shows on the network apps. And Netflix + Hulu is cheaper than cable. Period.
3. Park in the first spot you see - you know how much gas you waste circling the lot for a closer space? Pull in the first available spot. Save time. Save money. Get some exercise. 3 birds, 1 stone.
4. Razors - how much money do you spend on razors (for yourself + your hubby)? Well you could spend $1 buck/month with Dollar Shave Club, and they will deliver high quality razors straight to your door. That means you save time (because you won't have to drive to the store) and you'll save money (on razors + gas). BOOM! You do the math.

Feel free to share some of your money saving ideas too!

Nescafe Dolce Gusto review + giveaway #Sponsored

I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Mom Central for NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto, and received a promotional item to thank me for my participation. All views expressed are the honest opinion of Just Say I Told You So.

I don't quite remember when I first fell in love with coffee, but I am smitten. There is nothing like the smell of fresh brewed joe wafting through the air. And the taste... Ah! The taste of coffee is just... well, delicious!

Of course now that we are living in the age of the swanky coffeehouse, I don't brew coffee at home as much as I used to. That is until I received a Nescafe Dolce Gusto coffee machine!

The Nescafe Dolce Gusto is a single-serve coffee machine that brews up coffeehouse worthy beverages in less than one minute (yes, it really is that fast). 

What's better than a delicious frothy cup of coffee? Enjoying a delicious frothy cup of coffee in the comfort of my own home, with no muss and no fuss. My mornings are busy enough already, the Nescafe Dolce Gusto takes one more thing off my already filled-to-the-brim morning routine.

The Nescafe Dolce Gusto machine comes in several different styles and colors, to suit your taste and lifestyle. And there are 19 different hot and cold beverage varieties to choose from, that means you can change it up, if diversity is your flavor of choice. 

This is my first venture into the realm of the coffee machine and I'm pretty impressed with how easy (+ quick) it is to make a cup. And since there are so many flavor choices (including decafe and non-coffee options), I can have a hot or cold beverage anytime of the day! 

Look how easy it is to use:




The clean-up is almost non-existent too. No coffee grounds all over the place. No separate milk-frothing pot. Just a coffee pod (or two depending on the beverage), water, cup, and a button to push. Can you say easy?

Because I adore my readers so very much and I want you to have the opportunity to step up your home coffee game too... so I'll be giving away a Nescafe Dolce Gusto machine to one lucky winner!

The Nescafe Dolce Gusto is now available at Target.com. Be sure to visit the Nescafe Dolce Gusto website and follow on Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Google+, and YouTube.

The Bouqs Company Flower Review

I received a free Bouq to facilitate this review. All views expressed are the honest opinion of Just Say I Told You So.
This post contains affiliate links. 

I LOVE fresh flowers! In fact I buy flowers to put on the bedside table in every room, all the time. But in all my years I have never seen lovelier flowers than the ones delivered straight to my door, from the side of a volcano, by the Bouqs.com!

Day 1: out of the box

The flowers from the Bouqs are guaranteed fresh, and I don't mean fresh from the fridge either.  They don't even cut the flowers until they are ready to be sold. That means that your flowers are delivered from the farm, right to your door. They arrive in a beautiful box, ready to be arranged.

Of course receiving beautiful flowers is one thing, but getting flowers that will actually last more than a couple of day is something altogether different. I received the most gorgeous white roses that I had ever seen, or so I thought. I mean, they were beautiful straight out of the box, so I didn't think they could get any better... but they did.  Once those amazing buds opened (within 24 hours) they were even more stunning! But wait... it gets better!  The flowers lasted for more than 10 days!!!

The quality of these flowers is nothing short of amazing! That fresh from the farm to your door is not just a gimmick. I have never smelled flowers (off the stalk) that smelled so... well, fresh. They are so fresh that the water didn't even turn dark and murky after several days, which almost always happens with other flowers. I actually didn't change the water for the entire time I had them, I just added to it, and it stayed pretty clear. I don't know if I will ever order flowers from another company again, and I really mean that. 

The Bouqs offers plenty of variety too! From roses to lilies, ranunculus to asters, you will definitely find something that you like. 

If you need to send a bouquet, and you want to send the best, I can't recommend the Bouqs enough!

Glass Dharma - Earth Day Giveaway

April 22nd is Earth Day.

The older I get the more connected I feel to the Earth, the Universe, to everything...

One of the things that is vital to survival of our beautiful planet is sustainability. That means bringing our awareness to the products we use and re-purposing, reusing, + recycling, as much and as often as possible. Glass is one of the most sustainable materials there is. 

Glass Dharma - the Original Glass Straw is on a mission to "create world-wide awareness about single use plastics and how damaging plastic straws are to our environment."

While plastic straws are small, collectively they make up a big problem. Imagine if every person, in every country, used one straw per day... that's over 7+ billion straws every single day. The number of straws would outgrow the population in a 24 hour period. Think about it...



We've been using Glass Dharma straws in our home for the past 2 years and I'm totally smitten! In addition to the fact that they are durable and strong (I haven't had a broken straw yet), they are also gorgeous! 

Made from the strongest glass commercially available, Glass Dharma straws can be used in hot and cold beverages, and they are also microwave + dishwasher safe. 

Here are a few more reasons why Glass Dharma straws trump plastic straws all-day-every-day:

• They don't leach toxins into your beverage.
• They come with a 100% satisfaction guarantee
• Made by human hands in the USA
• Lifetime breakage guarantee - they will replace broken straws forever!

If you don't have glass straws in your kitchen... it's time for an upgrade.

Giveaway Alert

Glass Dharma has pledged to giveaway 1000 straws for Earth Day!

Smile Brilliant - Review & Giveaway - CLOSED

                                                           I received a free Smile Brilliant LED Whitening system to facilitate this review.

Your smile makes a powerful first impression... it's true. There are tons of tooth whitening strips on the market, problem is most require you to use them a gazillion times before you see any results. What if you could whiten your teeth in a fraction of the time, safely and easily at home? 

Smile Brilliant has changed the game with their LED Teeth Whitening system. It's perfect for people who want "great tooth whitening results but are on a budget." For $39.95 you can have a whiter, brighter smile... in as little as 20-40 minutes!

My daughter was kind enough to test it out!

Purex Crystals Fresh Mountain Breeze: Review & Coupon Giveaway

Purex Crystals is one of the best things that has ever happened to my laundry! Purex recently introduced  Fresh Mountain Breeze and I have to tell you it's "heaven scent!" LOL

This is why I LOVE Purex Crystals:

1. You add them at the beginning of the wash cycle. That means no more balls, liquids, or waiting for the rinse cycle. 
2. It only takes a cap full. A little goes a very long way.
3. The scent lasts for weeks! The freshness lingers in the fabric long after you've folded and put your laundry away. 

It just doesn't get much better than that! Since laundry is something that has to be done, all the time, I want it to be as easy as possible. Purex Crystals makes it easy!

There are also several scents to choose from:

• Fresh Spring Water
• Lavender Blossom - my fave
• Tropical Splash
• Fresh Mountain Breeze - the new kid on the block
• Crystals for Baby

I honestly didn't think I would like any other scent more than I liked the Lavender Blossom; but I have to say that Fresh Mountain Breeze is pretty nice! It's a clean smell, easy on the nose, and very pleasant. When I changed my bed linens, the smell lingered in the air for days. I really liked that!

So have you tried Purex Crystals yet? If not, what on earth are you waiting for???

Introducing Sprint Framily Plans + a cool giveaway! (CLOSED)

This is not a paid post, no compensation will be received. Giveaway prize will be provided by Sprint.

Cell phone bills have now become a household expense. In fact, many families have gotten rid of the land line altogether. But nobody wants to pay an arm and a leg for a cell phone plan. If everybody in the house has a cell phone, the cost could really add up... quickly!

While there maybe a gazillion carriers to choose from, Sprint is the only carrier who allows you to pick and choose your "framily."

Introducing Sprint's new Framily Plans!

Friends + Family = Framily

Your framily members can consist of friends, family, a friend of a friend, your neighbor... whoever! 

"The more people added, the lower your rate."

You can add up to 10 people and get a monthly bill as low as $25/month/line. With unlimited talk and text (for life), plus 1GB of data. There is also an unlimited data buy-up option (which is also guaranteed for life).

Cha-Ching!

The best part is you can have separate bills for each account... that means you won't be bothered trying to make sure Paul's friend gives you the money back for his part of the bill! Yep, you can share the savings without sharing the headache bill. Genius!

I'm totally stoked about this whole Framily thing! Aren't you?

Giveaway Alert!

In the spirit of celebrating Sprint's Framily plan, I'm giving away a Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini to one lucky reader!

FELS-NAPTHA Review & Coupon Giveaway

I received a free Fels-Naptha bar through Purex Insiders

If you've been following this blog long enough, you are sure to have noticed that laundry plays a starring role in my life. I mean it never ends, right? So I'm always open to new and better ways to get my clothes clean and fresh. 

As it turns out, one of the best stain-fighting products, that I have ever encountered has been around for 100 years. No that's not a typo... I said 100 YEARS! Purex's FELS-NAPTHA has been fighting the toughest stains for over a century!

What is FELS-NAPTHA you ask?

It's a laundry bar. Actually it's more than that. It's a versatile laundry bar. You can use it to pretreat stains: dirt, grease, and hair dye. Yes, even hair dye... see for yourself:

Now granted, the stain had been previously washed (and sprayed by another leading brand that I won't name), so it wasn't a full-blown dye stain, but Fels-Naptha did the job nonetheless. 

What's better is it's super easy to use. 

1. Rub the stain with a wet Fels-Naptha bar.
2. Wait (just a few minutes)
3. Wash
4. Done

It can also be used as a laundry booster. All you have to do is finely grate it directly into the wash. 

I am pretty stoked about this product! Revolutionary - and has been for over 100 years! 

Wanna try it? Of course you do....

Win it: I'm giving away a coupon for a #free Fels-Naptha bar to two lucky readers!

I Heart Borax - Coupon Giveaway

A free product was received in exchange for my honest review.

I am a Borax fan!

No kidding. 

I was a fan even before I did an official product review.

I use it in every single load of laundry I wash.

I use it in my dishwasher (great water spot reducer).

I use it to scrub the yuck out of my good pots.

Borax is one of my go-to products. It's a staple item. Always on the shelf.

What I love best about Borax is it's natural. It's a mineral, which means it's straight from nature.  I don't know about you, but I try to avoid chemicals whenever possible. That's why Borax is one of my favorite things!

Have you tried it?

Soft Scrub Mold & Mildew Stain Remover Gel Review & Coupon Giveaway

I received a free bottle of Soft Scrub Mold & Mildew Stain Remover as a Purex Insider to facilitate this review.

Mold and mildew are the enemy in my house. I have been known to throw away good containers simply because the contents got a little fuzzy. It chaps my hide when I see mildew developing in the grout. Mold and Mildew cannot live here - period!

For years I used a popular mold and mildew stain remover whose name I shall not mention in this post (starts with the T), but the fumes are brutal. The chlorinated smell gets inside your nose and stays for hours. While it is effective, you have to open every single window in the house if you use the stuff.

Soft Scrub Mold & Mildew Stain Remover is way less pungent. I mean you can still smell it, but it doesn't permeate the air with the same harshness. More importantly it's effective. I love that it's just thick enough to stick, but not too thick to get stuck, it "clings," and it's effective, see:

This is mold and mildew stain remover can bring back the white your grout used to know. It's pretty excellent! So it seems that my old brand just got replaced by Soft Scrub and I'm completely okay with that!

Buy it: Soft Scrub Mold & Mildew Stain Remover in a store near you.

Of course your want a chance to try it out for free, right?

Win it: It is always my pleasure to present an opportunity for you to try out fabulous products. So I'm giving away a coupon for one free Soft Scrub product to two lucky winners!

Mandatory Entry: Leave me a comment telling me how you currently treat mold and mildew in your home.

Soda Stream Review

I'm not much of a soda drinker, but I do fancy sparkling water. Which is why I think that Soda Stream is the best thing since... Soda!

Making your own soda means you control what you put in the soda - it doesn't get more genius than that! It's so simple and easy to use, see for yourself:

Soda Stream offers a wide variety of flavor syrups (including diet options), in addition to the flavor essences (which are my favorite).  They even have Country Time, Crystal Light, and KoolAid flavors! Of course you could also add fruit juices to the carbonated water to create your own unique flavors. That means that the flavor varieties are truly endless!

What most soda drinkers (and non-soda drinkers like myself) will appreciate most is the potential savings. Buying soda and other carbonated beverages can really add up. But if saving money doesn't do it for you, maybe saving the environment will. No more bottles or cans. Soda Stream will help you keep it Green!

20 Mule Team Borax Review & Coupon Giveaway - CLOSED

Laundry... is never ending. You can do it all in one day, but there are always more clothes to wash. I suppose it's wise not to begrudge something that is part of life, right?  In my quest to embrace laundry, I have tried many products to get my family's clothes as clean as humanly possible.  One of my secret weapons is 20 Mule Team Borax!

What is Borax?

Borax is a naturally occurring mineral. It's produced by the "repeated evaporation of seasonal lakes." That's right, it's made by Mother Nature and has been used for laundry (and other uses) for more than 100 years. 

I have found that Borax is awesome on stains and it also gets rid of odors. But that's not all Borax is good for:

• Removes soap scum and hard water deposits (I've tried it, works great).
• Can be used in carpet cleaning machines (I've tried this one too).
• Helps reduce water spots in the dishwasher (and this one).
• Helps to clean and shine pots and pans (you guessed, been there done that).

There is only one thing I use more than Borax, baking soda... but that's a topic for another post.

If you've been spending the big bucks on another laundry booster, that I won't name (but starts with oxy), I encourage you to give Borax a go, because it's soooo much cheaper!

If saving money doesn't do it for you, here's a chance to win a coupon for a free box!

Glade Expressions Review

Smell is the strongest sense linked to memory. I get a whiff of certain things and I am immediately transported back in time.

My nose and I recently had the great pleasure of sniffing out the new Glade Expressions Oil Diffuser. I placed a Pineapple and Mangosteen diffuser in my sister's bedroom and was a tropical heaven!  The smell is delicious, consistent, and just strong enough.  It's been over three weeks and the scent is still going strong!

We (my nose and I) also tried out the Glade Expressions Fragrance Mist as well, the smell is doesn't last nearly as long as the Oil Diffuser, but it does linger a bit longer than ordinary sprays.

What I liked best about both products is they aren't too perfumey. I don't like overpowering scents that get in my throat at all. But these are soft but noticeable.

You can purchase Glade products through various vendors online or in your local everything store.

Follow Glade on Twitter and Facebook.  You can also sign up for coupons and specials on Glade products by vising the Right@Home site.

This is not a paid post. I received coupons for free Glade products through BzzAgent. All views expressed are the opinion of Just Say I Told You So.
