Best Dog food EVER!!!

Thank you BzzAgent for inviting me to try BilJac dog food, I can honestly say this is the best experience I have had with trying out a new dog food. Usually my puppy wants something special in her dry dog food to get him started eating. Sometimes it is a few pieces of boiled chicken, or crumpled up beef, just a little something special to gain her interest. So when I heard about the BilJac campaign and the two bowl challenge I was skeptical.

I put out two bowls of dog food, one with her regular dog food with a few pieces of boiled chicken, the other just plain BilJac puppy food. You know what happened? She went for and ate the entire bowl of BilJac puppy food. I was in complete disbelief, but their two bowl challenge passed the test with little Crushy! Now that I have a huge bag of her original puppy food left, the only way I can get her to finish it is to put one cup of original and one cup BilJac mixed. I say mixed up because the first time I put the original puppy food on the bottom and the BilJac on the top and she only at the BilJac and stopped when she got to the original puppy food.

If you have not tried BilJac yet and you want to spice up your dogs diet, I highly recommend trying the BilJac two bowl challenge. I think you will be just as shocked as I was.

Couponing and giveaways

Is it me or are more and more people using coupons and participating in company promotions and giveaways. I have been couponing for a few years now thanks to hip2save.com but recently found the competition to get coupons and participate in company promotions is getting harder and harder. One thing I have found is that you have to be quick, and most of the times have a very quick connection speed or you will get timed out.

One of my biggest suggestions is to get "social" Twitter and Facebook are two great starts. There are tons of coupon sites that you can follow on facebook and get instant alerts on hot coupons and promotions. Also if you have not joined yet, I suggest joining a WOM (word of mouth) site such as Bzzagent , Vocal point, she speaks, Kraft first taste are just a few I recommend. My personal favorite is Bzzagent.

Another suggestion if using coupons is to find out when the store stocks their shelves. This is important to get a jump on the hot items that usually sell out very quickly. You really have to be quick. I know that my Walgreens sells out of their hot deals within the hour of opening on Sunday when their sale prices usually go into effect.

There are many more tips that I will be publishing soon, but for now I just wanted to get you thinking of strategies to save. Have a great weekend peeps...and please if you get a chance show your love and follow me. :-)

The Daily Bzz

Have you guys heard about the new program at the Daily Bzz? It seems pretty cool but there is one catch, you have to use Twitter. The first day they gave away around 100 ipads which is unheard of!!!! I have to admit, this is a new program and there are some glitches. Like many other people, I didnt understand the rules on the first day and posted my entry in Facebook instead of Twitter. You had to either post a video, picture or blog entry that would get Jono's attention. I made a picture of and ipad with my picture in it, but posted on facebook instead of Twitter....ugh

Here is the picture:

Oh well, they never got it, totally my fault for not understanding I had to tweet it and not use facebook. This is a really cool program they are running and I cant wait to see what other products they add to their list next week. Here is what they have they are giving away today:

Here is what Bzz agent has to say about the Daily Bzz:

Every week day, we give you the chance to raise your hand and invite yourself to try great products, totally free. Just tell us why you think you deserve a spot via photo, video, review, blog post or something else that’ll catch our eye — if you make the cut, we’ll invite you to the campaign and send you the product. It’s that simple.

How do I know if I got in to a Daily Bzz program?

Simple — you’ll hear from us! If you’re in, we’ll send you an e-mail the next week day.

Are there other ways to get invited to try products?

Of course! We started The Daily Bzz to offer BzzAgents the chance to invite themselves to campaigns they may not have otherwise been offered. You’ll still receive invites to the BzzCampaigns we’ve hand-picked just for you based on your unique interests and other criteria, such as age and location.

What are the odds of getting into a Daily Bzz program?

Well, it depends on how many people let us know they’re interested, but the short answer is: they’re good!

Is that a bird?? A plane?? Nope its Laser Pegs..what?

What is that you may ask? Yea, I thought the same thing also. What a cool looking toy right?

BzzAgent just e-mailed me an invite this morning to be a part of a campaign to have my kids try out this toy. Amazing right? I went on the web site to check them out and they look like so much fun. We can not wait to try these out and give our honest opinion about this toy. So far the kids are super excited from looking at the pictures on the website. I hope this product lives up to their expectations. I am so sure they are going to have so much fun being little BzzAgents in training.

Do you want to be able to try out cool products like this one and give your honest non-hype opinion about them? Why not join BzzAgent also? It is free to join, and if you are active, soon you too could get invited to try out new products like this completly for free. To give you some perspective, so far this month I am working on

Lawrys- recipees to come once I get my Bzzkit

Cross Pens (which by the way would be a great fathers day or graduation present. This heavy weight pen writes amazing, and there are so many different varieties to choose from)

TRESemme' Color Revitilize- (not digging the smell of the shampoo and conditioner and the jury is still out if it is holding my color more than any other shampoo and conditioner)

Covergirl 50th Anniversary- (pretty cool campaign that is mainly based in facebook. I am a mush for Covergirl cosmetics and love trying out their new products and playing with their interactive facebook site.)

Laser Pegs - jury is out on this one until we get the product and try it out. But I can tell you that just from seeing the pictures the kids are uber excited.

So as you can tell, you can stay pretty busy with BzzAgent if you choose. Oh, and I also wanted to mention that you dont have to participate in any campaigns you dont want to. You are never penalized for opting out of a campaign. Well, that is it for now, the kids want to go in the baby pool. Have a great day!
