I am just beyond thrilled that I was asked to promote this amazing giveaway from T-Mobile@Home! They created this gorgeous custom widget that you see at the end of this post, made it green to match my theme and everything, it’s so pretty! And why? Because T-Mobile is giving away HOUSES, people, HOUSES!! And, to help get my readers interested in entering the giveaway, they created this special widget just for me.

AND, my readers can enter to win 16 prizes, 14 daily ones and 2 weekly ones. My giveaway goes from now until July 23rd! This week my readers can win a $100 Home Improvement gift card, next week it’s a $100 T-Mobile gift card!

You know how you love your mobile phone because you can use it to send and receive text messages, take and display photos, play music, even record short video? Well, wouldn’t it be totally awesome if you could do that with your HOME PHONE? Home phones should be able to do everything a mobile phone does, that’s my opinion! T-Mobile wants to know what YOU think!

Look at the widget I’ve placed at the end of the post, see where it says “Chime in with your opinion and you’ll be entered for a chance to win a gift courtesy of T-Mobile”? Click the “win a gift” link to see all the great prizes that are being given away weekly and monthly. WOWSA!

Okay, so now that you know what you can win, HOW do you win? It’s Easy! Right there in that widget, see the question “What features from your mobile phone would you like on your home phone”? That’s my question! Enter your answer, your name, and your VALID EMAIL ADDRESS, seriously, make sure you double-check when you type in your email address because it would be awful if you won and they couldn’t contact you. These are prizes chosen specifically FOR YOU, my dear readers, so enter to win!

As if that wasn’t awesome enough, at the bottom of the widget, see the link to the T-Mobile Ultimate Home Giveaway? There’s a link for Enter Now which takes you to the Ultimate Home Giveaway page. If you are an existing T-Mobile customer, you’ll see a link to click to enter the Home Giveaway, and you have until July 29th. If not, there’s information on the T-Mobile National Open House on July 12th, you can enter at one of the participating locations. A HOUSE, people! See the site for details.

So please say you will enter, and please spread the word about this! I’m not giving anything away personally, but Digital Influence Group went to all this trouble to make this beautiful widget for me, I’d hate to see it sit here empty. Please enter! Leave me a comment after you do and tell me what your answer was to the question, because I’m curious like that

I am just thrilled to be reviewing and giving away these cleaners from Terracycle, a company known for creating an all-natural fertilizer made from worm poop. But don’t worry, there’s no worm poop in these terrific cleaning sprays, just concentrated essences of plants, shrubs, fruits, herbs and grasses with natural minerals and water. Even better, TerraCycle then packages the ready-to-use cleaners in reused soda bottles with end-run spray tops, making one of the most affordable and environmentally friendly cleaning products on the market.

I received three cleaning products to try for myself, and I am happy to say that all of them work really well. I used TerraCycle Natural All Purpose Cleaner all around my house as I cleaned this weekend. It took care of spilled shampoo that had dried on the floor of the bathtub, coffee stains on the kitchen counter, and mystery gook that was on the walls in the hallway. I talked to James from Terracycle on the phone about the giveaway, and I asked him to please find out for me exactly what oils are used in the cleaner, because the smell…well, it smells like the people who live in East Lansing near M.S.U., the ones who buy their shampoo and laundry soap at the Food Co-Op. I suspect patchouli.

TerraCycle Natural Bathroom Cleaner made my shower, sink, and toilet sparkle and I like knowing that I’m not leaving harmful chemical residues behind. And ammonia-free TerraCycle Natural Window Cleaner got all the toothpaste globs off the mirror and took care of the dog’s nose print streaks on the picture window in the family room. In addition to these, Terracycle also makes a Drain Maintainer and Cleaner that is biologically friendly and packaged in 100% recycled containers. If these cleaners are strong enough to tackle my messy house, they are sure to work in yours! I’m naming Terracycle cleaners a MOMREVIEWS FABULOUS FIND and sending them a badge they can use, too!

A super big thank you to Rebecca from Weber Shandwick, one of the PR firms that really understands how to approach bloggers, for sponsoring this wicked awesome giveaway. Not only did Rebecca approach me about giving products away to my readers, she also sent me a huge box of Suave products including some of the brand new products for 2008. I’ve been using Suave products for years, because Suave does such a great job of making their products look, feel, smell, and work like they should be so much more expensive! If you’ve never tried a Suave product, the next time you are buying something like shampoo, lotion, or deodorant, look to see if there’s a Suave version and try it. I bet you’ll find it is just as good but costs much less!

You can win a terrific prize pack with six Suave products to use! Here is what the five winners of this giveaway will receive:

For Hair:
Suave Professionals Extreme Strength Shampoo, Conditioner and Daily Leave-In Treatment

GIVEAWAY CLOSED. Congratulations to the five winners!

How would you like to try two cereals that are so new, they aren’t even on the company’s website yet? I’ve got ten boxes of brand new cereals from Envirokidz to give away, and I can assure you, they are both delicious!

We tried both of the new cereals by EnviroKidz, a line of organic cereals from Nature’s Path. The Leapin’ Lemurs are peanut butter and chocolate balls, they taste a little like Reese’s Puffs. The Penguin Puffs, which I LOVE, are a crunchy blend of kamut, quinoa and corn, which it first made me think I wouldn’t like it, but then I tasted it-ever had Honey Smacks? Penguin Puffs taste just like that! Both of these organic cereals are gluten free, and 1% of the sales from these cereals is donated to endangered species, habitat conservation, and environmental education for children.

I want you to find out for yourself how great these cereals are, so I’m having a giveaway with five winners, who will each get one box of Leapin’ Lemurs and one box of Penguin Puffs. All you have to do to get an entry in this contest is leave a comment on this post with your REAL first name, a valid email, and if you have a URL, leave that too please. I will run this giveaway until Friday, July 11th when I will choose three winners and contact them for their shipping info. Good luck!

I am so excited about this giveaway! My daughter isn’t quite old enough for the Fancy Nancy books, but she saw the dolls and accessories at Target and practically knocked me over to get to them. So imagine my surprise when I got an email from Janis at Jakks Pacific asking if I would like to review and giveaway something from their exclusive Fancy Nancy line of dolls, dress up clothes, and accessories! When the box arrived, Kaitlyn and I sat on my bed and took a close look at Fancy Nancy, and let me tell you, she is FANCY!

From her purple-streaked hair tied with ribbons and heart-shaped hair clips that come off to be worn by the lucky girl, to her strand of beads, spotted leotard, ruffled poodle skirt, socks with tiny hearts and shoes with pompoms, this Fancy Nancy doll is sure to be a delightful gift for any little girl. The age recommendation is 4-7, but Kaitlyn is 2.5 and I make sure she is very careful with the doll. These photos will show you just how special this doll is:

Checking her out in the box, which is almost too nice not to keep!

Skirt and shoes details, both of which are so cute!

Kaitlyn gave Fancy Nancy a big hug!

The Fancy Nancy Dress Assortment features her precious signature Fancy Nancy Poodle Dress and Fancy Nancy Posh Party Dress so every girl can be just like Nancy. $24.99
