JAWS Cleaners Review/Giveaway

JAWS (Just Add Water System)

The refillable, reusable, remarkable way to clean.
Just fill their reusable spray bottle with H2O, pop in a super-concentrated cleaning cartridge and you’ve got eco-friendly cleaning power wherever you need it. (The cartridges are 2½ inches long and are child safe.) It’s an innovative, easy-to-use, non-toxic* and effective system that reduces plastic in landfills, conserves resources and saves you cash. In fact, when you finish your Just Add Water™ starter kit and buy cartridge refills, you can make 2 full bottles of cleaner for less than $2.00 each. 

There are four types of these JAWS cleaners: JAWS Glass & Hard Surface Cleaner, JAWS Multi-Purpose Cleaner/Degreaser, JAWS Bathroom Cleaner/Deodorizer and JAWS Disinfectant Cleaner Degreaser.

This system is as easy as it said.  My husband actually set ours up, and he usually needs a lot of instructions before he does anything!!!   It is easy to tell that the cleaning solution has went into the bottle, because the water will change color.  The cleaning solution has a good smell too, not a harsh one that some cleaners have.  I really do like the idea of keeping the same bottle.  It is beneficial to the environment not to be buying and getting rid of all those plastic bottles.

Thank you JAWS  for my product to review and for prize to giveaway to my readers.  All my opinions are honest.

Would you like to try these cleaners.  One reader will one bottle of each cleaner.

Billy Joel Greatest Hits Review/Giveaway

 I like a lot of Billy Joel songs, but I like songs that get me up and dancing.  I hadn't heard track 16-"Tell Her About It," for a long time.  As soon as I turned it on, I was up dancing.  I love "We Didn't Start The Fire." This is another one that gets me up and dancing. I remember when we were younger my friends and I tried to sing all the words, and if you know the song, some of those words are hard to keep up with.  I think that is what made this song so much fun!  Billy Joel does bring back some memories.

 2011 marks the 40th anniversary of the release of Billy Joel's first solo album, Cold Spring Harbor, and Columbia/Legacy Recordings will celebrate the occasion with a definitive reissue project of newly restored and expanded Legacy editions of the complete Billy Joel catalog, newly curated collections of rarities from the vaults, previously unavailable studio tracks and live performances, home video releases and more.

 Among the upcoming releases in the Columbia/Legacy Billy Joel 40th anniversary commemoration will be Billy Joel - Live At Shea Stadium, a 2CD/DVD and stand-alone Blu-ray edition of Billy's historic 2008 Shea Stadium concerts, a Legacy Edition of the 1973 Piano Man album, a Complete Albums Collection featuring 14 of Billy's original albums with a bonus disc collecting 16 non-album tracks and more.

Review: Perfect Portions Scale

http://www.perfectportionsscale.com/

    

The Perfect Portions Food Scale + Nutrition Facts is a scale and nutritional calculator in one. It is the most intuitive, easy-to-read nutritional scale on the market because it integrates the familiar Nutrition Label.
Unlike other nutritional scales, the Perfect Portions Scale breaks down the information into % daily value, tracks your daily total, and even allows you to customize the scale by entering your own foods.
The scale is designed with a stylish glass-top surface and touchpad keys to integrate the platform, display, and keys into one clean surface. Beautifully designed and intuitively engineered, the Perfect Portions Scale revolutionizes the usability of food scales for portion control and weight management.

Great for:

• Monitoring carbs
• Watching salt intake
• Calorie counting
• Sugar control
• Tracking cholesterol
• Weighing food

Retail Price: $59. MyOKCMommy readers can use this special code to get 10% off (code-myokcmommy)
Measuring Units: g and oz (lb, oz)
Capacity: 10lb / 5kg
Resolution: .1oz / 1g
Dimensions: 9.25” x 1” x 6.1”
Batteries: 2AA, included
Warranty: 5 years

features and benefits:

• Built-in database of nearly 2000 foods
• Easy-to-read nutrition facts adjusted to your portion size
• Track daily totals
• Weight + % Daily Value
• Easy-to-clean stylish glass design
• Includes sodium and sugars
• Adapts to your diet with 99 custom foods
• Hygienic touchpad keys

I had a chance to review this scale and I love it.  I am on a 1200 calorie diet right now, and this is making things so much easier.  I find it is very hard to figure out the calories in fresh fruits and vegetables.  That is made simple with this scale.  It is very easy to do as well.  I put my plate on the scale and pushed the zero button to zero the weight out.(that way we are not weighing the plate)  I looked in the manual to find the four digit code for my apple.  I typed the code in and then put the apple on the scale.  Voila, it told me how many calories were in it.  It also told me the total fat, sodium, cholesterol and proteins.  I was very impressed with this scale and I know it is going to be an asset to my weight loss goals. *Remember to use code myokcmommy to get 10% off at http://www.perfectportionsscale.com/

I received a perfect portions scale for my review, no money was exchanged, and all my opinions are honest.
