Wine.com Say it with Chocolate Gift Basket

Amazon has been doing several deals on chocolate lately. 50% off at checkout on several different types of chocolate. A few days ago, Amazon was offering the Wine.com Say It With Chocolate Gift Basket for 50% off. I thought I would be a prefect gift to give my husband. Just a little gift to let him know how much I love him.

There are several different brands and types of chocolates in this gift basket.

Ingredients : Includes: • Dolcetto Wafer Rolls – 4.4 oz • Godiva White Chocolate Cookies & Cream Bar – 3.5 oz • Chocolate Cream Puffs - .77 oz • Chocolate Salted Caramel Cookies – 2 oz • Cherries & Almond in Dark Chocolate Chocolove Mini Bar – 1.3 oz • Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate Square - .375 oz • Ghirardelli Milk Chocolate with Caramel Square - .375 oz • Lindt Ball Milk Chocolate • Lindt Ball White Chocolate

This was copy straight from their description. As you can see my basket is missing some of the items as described. I was a little disappoint in the basket when it arrived but my husband loved it. He does't know that the basket wasn't as described. All he knows is that I took the time to get him something for no reason.

After receiving this basket, I am glad I didn't pay the full price for this gift. 

Teddy update

We decided to name our puppy Teddy.

The last two weeks have been super busy around the house. Teddy graduated from Puppy training class. He has done so well with training. He really enjoys showing how smart he is. This little cutie was nice enough to wear a cap for his education pictures.

He has finished all of his shots! Now we can work on socializing him a lot more Han we have. He now weighs a whole 4 lbs.

Yesterday, we got Teddy neutered and micro-chipped. Everyone could wait to see again that we all piled into the car to go pick him up. Teddy was so happy to see us. He has orders to relax and take it easy for the next few days. The vet wished us luck with that.

So far Teddy has just wanted to get back to his normal play time. He has had some much needed "Time out" resting in his kennel. Plus a lot of snuggle time too.

He is happy and doing well.

Some Basic things to know about Reviewing on Amazon.

The first things you should know about reviewing on Amazon is that you should read Amazon TOS and follow their guidelines.

A lot of websites, groups and seller will ask about your Amazon Profile link. The way to find your link is go to the your amazon.com located near the top of the page. Click on your profile link at the top of the page. Copy your url until you get to the ? mark. That is your Profile Link. This link take you to all the review you have done on Amazon. DO NOT Post this link publicly. They are several people in the world that will do and down vote your reviews just because they feel like it.

You can also find your Ranking on your profile page. This number is based on how many helpful votes you receive. So it is going to go up and down based on your reviews and others.

A good review should be at least 70-75 words before your disclaimer.  Uploading pictures and videos will improve the quality of your review too. I know I use good review with picture to help me make decision on buying items. Explain way you like the item and why you don't. Seller feedback is also a thing to do. That is where you should post any advice on improving the product.

ALWAYS add a disclaimer to any review that you got the product at a discounted price or for free.
Example disclaimer is "I received the product at a discounted price in exchange for a honest and unbiased review." Or "I received this product for free in exchange for a honest and unbiased review." DO NOT ask for anyone to mark you review helpful. This will get your reviewing privileges banned. DO NOT included where you received the discount either. Since there are several people out there that target reviewers to down vote your review. I suggest leaving a simple and small disclaimer.

DO NOT post the review for the first 2 days of having the item. Most reviewers I know count the day you receive the product as day 1. Supplements should be reviewed at least a week after you start testing it.

Amazon has been having some issues when posting reviews. It is best to submit just a written review then go back into the review after the review go live to edit the review to include pictures or videos.

As a reviewer you should no longer up or down vote any reviews. This can flag you account and cause you to lose your reviewing privileges on Amazon.

Come up with a way to organize you reviews. A lot of reviewers use spreadsheets to keep track. I keep telling myself that it a more effective way to organize but haven't started using spreadsheets yet. I have a odd way of keeping take. I use my phone for a lot of what I do so when I started, I would simple write done in my memos the product I ordered right after I placed the order. Then I would use emails and Facebook messanger to keep track of where the review goes. Not effective, I know.

UPDATE:
I forgot to include do not share codes. You CAN NOT sell anything you get.

Kitchen Gizmo Magnetic Salt and Pepper Shaker Set

    The week I received the Kitchen Gizmo Magnetic Salt and Pepper Shaker Set to test and review. This is a cool salt and pepper shaker set. When you are done using the pepper or salt put the shaker back on the base and the magnet in the base pull the shaker shut. Since the shaker shuts close the salt and pepper stays fresh longer. The base and shaker have a nice stylist design. Directions are printed on the box on how to fill the shakers.

The shakers have a window so that you can see when the salt or pepper just low. The shaker has several holes around the top that you can get plenty of salt or pepper. The lids are a little difficult to place back on the shaker, but the good side is that they have a good seal. Unfortunately no where in the descriptions or on the box does it say what materials are used to make the shakers. The shakers don't completely close but does limit the amount of air that can get in the shakers.

Copied off of their website:

What materials are the products made of?

•  We use a variety of materials including stainless steel, ceramic, glass, plastic,  and other. Every gadget is evaluated and is made of the most durable material for its function.

The base is solid and has a decent amount of weight. The magnet in the base is strong and holds the shaker well.

I received this salt and pepper shaker at a deep discount.

Weight Lifting Gloves by Rim Sport

Rim Sport Weight Lifting gloves

I have been looking for a good pair of weight lifting gloves for a while now. My last pair of gloves have had a lot of abuse. I even had to stitch them up more than once. I guess that is what I get when I do cross training in the gloves. So I started looking for a comfortable glove that doesn't have the waist strap. I can't have limited mobility when working out.

These glove have a padded palm to make it more comfortable to lift heavy weights. I gloves are a little big though. My husband is about to wear the medium gloves I purchase and they fit him like they should. So instead of returning the gloves, my husband now has a new pair of weight lifting gloves.

Since these are exactly what I want I will continue my search for a replacement pair of weight lifting glove. The padded palm isn't ideal when your hand sweat a lot during your workout.  The gloves are well made and the stitching seems strong.

I was able to receive this pair for testing and reviewing purposes at no cost to me.

Buyer Beware PanDaDa Women's Summer Sleeveless Mini Dress

PanDaDa Women's Summer Sleeveless Sundress Beach Floral Tank Mini Dress 

DON'T BUY!

After waiting almost a week after the last estimated delivery date, I still haven't received my dresses that I ordered. I saw these on Facebook because a friend was ordering them. I looked over the reviews, the dress aren't high quality and they are very small in size. I figured these dresses would be good for my daughter for the summer months. Something lightweight and I wouldn't worry about if she ruined them since they are less than $5 a dress.

         After about a month and a half of waiting for them to arrive, I decided to contact the seller. There solution to me not receiving my order is to wait longer. I told them that wasn't acceptable to me. I still haven't heard back them and would be surprised if I did.

Ozeri Kitchen Scale

I started using a digital kitchen about a year ago or so to help me keep better track of my calorie in take. I started looking for a replace scale about a month ago and this scale look promising. My old scale was one of those scales the have a plate sitting on the scale. So after a month or letting my kids cooking, I needed to clean under the plate so I had a more accurate reading. I really like that I can zero balance before adding food to plate or bowl.

The display screen lights up and make it easier to read in dim lighting. I also like that you can change the measurement of how it weighs you food. Grams, ounces, pounds. It also come with a nice user manual. This scale is set up similar to my old scale so I didn't have to worry about learning how to use it.

I received this scale at no cost so that I could test and review it.
