WOW!!!!! Is that a contest or WHAT?? I wish they would pick as many winners as they have prize packs though, because that means I’m competing to be the ONLY WINNER! Now, Capessa wants to know what I think of the site, right? So, let’s take a look at it:

My favorite part of Capessa is the blogs. “Confessions of a Middle Aged Beauty Queen” gives excellent tips on what products to use, and why you don’t need to spend a fortune on skin care products. “Travel Diva” has great tips for getting through airport security faster and with less stress. I also enjoy the videos which you find in the right column under “Related Stories”. What I like best about Capessa is that I can pop over there and whatever I’m in the mood for, be it something about beauty or parenting or health, I can read articles about just that topic without having to wade through link after link looking for just what I want. The site is very well organized and easy to search. I really can’t think of any suggestions for improvement!
