Starbucks VIA Flavored Coffees Giveaway – CLOSED

Because it is Friday and I want to share the love of these VIAs, I thought why not a giveaway?!

flavoredvia 220x215 Starbucks VIA Flavored Coffees Giveaway   CLOSED

Last week I discovered Starbucks VIA Flavored coffees (6-pack retails for $6.95). Okay, I didn’t so much discover it as the barista forced me (yeah, yeah he had to twist my arm) to try the vanilla flavored VIA. Even though I had gone there for a Toffee Mocha coffee, I left with my drink and box of vanilla flavored VIAs. A couple days later, I went back and purchased the mocha flavored VIAs. What can I say I love Starbucks?! They are oh so yummy! And great for the day when I don’t feel like dragging myself to Starbucks, but I am in the mood for their coffee.

Last week I made Iced Coffees for me and the hubby. It was so easy with the flavored VIA packets! Mix together flavored packet with 8oz of water in a cup, mix with milk or creamer (if you like), and add ice cubes. Yum!

One Barely Domestic Mama reader will win a $15 Starbucks gift card to use towards your flavored VIAs.

How to Enter (required): Go to Starbucks.com and let me know which flavored VIA you would get.

Little Tikes Spray & Rescue Fire Truck Giveaway – CLOSED

Little Tikes is celebrating their 40th anniversary in business!

40th+logo+(2) Little Tikes Spray & Rescue Fire Truck Giveaway   CLOSED
Little Monkey needed a little help with his Spray & Rescue Fire Truck since he was going uphill.
DSCN4781+copy Little Tikes Spray & Rescue Fire Truck Giveaway   CLOSED
It is as much fun for a 3 year old as it is for a 10 year old (my brother-in-law) who was hot and waiting to get sprayed with water.
DSCN4785+copy Little Tikes Spray & Rescue Fire Truck Giveaway   CLOSED
Little Tikes Spray and Rescue Fire Truck is so adorable! There is assembly required. And I will admit that the hubby put this together, but it is only because one of us had to distract our toddler while one of us put his truck together. It only took the hubby one attempt to put everything together – and no there were no extra pieces left over.
We let our little guy ride his Spray and Rescue Fire Truck around the house, but we are sure to empty out the water tank so that our house isn’t soggy. Little Monkey enjoys his truck with or without the water fun.
Not only can your little ones water your garden, but my little guy and his uncle enjoyed just soaking each other while we were outside on a sunny day. I like this truck because right now my little guy is still struggling with pedals and manually scoots his bike while he sits on it. So this one he enjoys because he feels in control of it. And Little Tikes is the maker of his other favorite toy the Cozy Coupe. We don’t own this toy, but you can be sure that the places we have been that there has been one we can’t get him out.
Features:
  • Pressurized water tank and hose really squirts water.
  • Water tank is easily removed for easy filling and holds up to 2 gallons of water.
  • Ages 1 1/2 to 5 years.
or win it…

One Barely Domestic Mama reader will win a Spray & Rescue Fire Truck.

Cascade’s 24 Hour Challenge – CLOSED

When I was contacted by My Blog Spark to take Cascade’s 24 Hour Challenge, I jumped at the opportunity. I’ve been wanting to try the new Cascade All-in-1 ActionPacs already but I just wasn’t sure about it yet. Before we tried the All-in-1 ActionPacs, we were using the regular Cascade with Dawn ActionPacs and I rinsed the dishes beforehand.

Cascade’s All-in-1 ActionPacs combines the best of powder and gel in one powerful pac.

Cascade+Complete+package Cascades 24 Hour Challenge   CLOSED
The 24 Hour Challenge asked that we make a Blueberry Cobbler. Once we were done eating up that delicious Blueberry Cobbler we were to set out the plate for 24 hours before putting it in the dishwasher. Oh and did I mention they said No Rinsing?! It was hard. So hard that I had the hubby load the dishwasher without rinsing the dish for me. Here were my results:

I was really expecting to have to rewash this dish. I was more than pleased with the results. I will definitely be switching over to Cascade All-in-1 Actionpacs! I may have tried this experiment with a Blueberry Cobbler on more than one occasion. That Blueberry Cobbler was delicious!
One Barely Domestic Mama reader will win a $25.00 gift card to Walmart.

Spice up your Valentine’s Day with Eden Fantasys

Warning: The Eden Fantasys link will take you to a website that is not suitable for work, children, your parents, grandparents, or other people that you wouldn’t feel comfortable picking out sensual gift sets or toys with. Now don’t say I didn’t warn ya. icon smile Spice up your Valentines Day with Eden Fantasys

Valentine’s Day isn’t celebrated with very much excitement in our house. We exchange chocolates and then go about our day. I have to admit having a clingy almost 3 year old who co-sleeps with us does put a cramp in our style…but we do try to make time and get creative since obviously our bed is out of the question because it is occupied with an adorable toddler. This year I thought I would put a little more effort in for Valentine’s Day since it is one of the few days the hubby is pretty hopeful for a good night. I can’t say what I am planning with the possiblity of him deciding to read this which is so very highly unlikely, but it is not out of the question since he has read my blog before. Eden Fantasys will be a part of our night and that is all I will divulge.

Eden Fantasys makes it easy to shop with so many products to choose from, discreet shipping, and customer reviews. The customer reviews really is helpful…especially for someone like me who is mostly clueless to most of this stuff. It is great to read reviews to know what others thought about an item. Of course, not everyone is going to agree 100%, but at least you get a better idea instead of blindly making a purchase.

Here are just a few fun Valentine’s Day gifts to bring a little excitement to your night:

On Saturday, Jan. 30, @PoshNicole will be announcing a Twitter giveaway with Eden Fantasys – that is just in time for Valentine’s Day! The official rules post and details will be posted tomorrow on Pink & Posh.

My Starbucks Rewards – CLOSED

holiday customized cards My Starbucks Rewards   CLOSED

Do you have multiple Starbucks gift cards in your wallet or purse with different various amounts on them and you’re tired of guessing what amounts are on each? Starbucks allows you to transfer amounts from multiple gift cards, if you have balances of $5 or more you can transfer those amounts onto the card of your choosing. This has been the best perk since I usually receive Starbucks gift cards for Christmas. I was able to take all the amounts I received and transfer them onto my personalized Starbucks gift card. Woo hoo!

Join My Starbucks Rewards and this will automatically enter you into the Welcome Level of the program, which means you’ll receive a free birthday beverage. Extra perk: If your registered gift card gets lost or stolen, Starbucks will replace your registered card with a new card that has the remaining balance on it!

Now here’s a giveaway for my loyal readers:

Birthday love with giveaway! – CLOSED

It’s almost my birthday!!! Yeah! I know, I know…really, who gets excited about turning 28? I’m not really thrilled, but surprisingly enough I’m not having a major meltdown. Yes, I am shocked myself. So on Tuesday, September 29, I will turn 28! Yeah…not really. I’m just hoping my parents will watch Little Monkey long enough for me to go out to a peaceful dinner that doesn’t include wrangling a toddler.

So in honor of my birthday, I thought I’d giveaway some presents for my readers! These are just some of my fave places ever!

The first prize a $10 Sephora gift card!
The second prize a $10 Starbucks gift card!
The third prize a $10 Dunkin’ Donuts gift card!

I know having Dunkin’ Donuts and Starbucks together in the list of prizes seems like a big no-no, but I enjoy my Egg and Cheese Wake up wrap and munchkins from Dunkin’ Donuts (their iced mocha latte is delicious, too) and I love my flavored coffees from Starbucks (their white chocolate mocha is yummy and I can’t wait for the Gingersnap lattes this fall/winter). Hmmm…can we see why I suffer from a spare tire around my mid-section?! icon smile Birthday love with giveaway!   CLOSED Food=Love, doesn’t it?!

More Barefoot Wine please!

barefootlogo More Barefoot Wine please!

Barefoot wines were originally introduced in 1965 by self-taught California winemaker Davis Bynum. After years of making “garage-style” home wines, Bynum opened up a winery in Alameda Davis and released Barefoot Bynum Burgundy for sale in his tasting room only.

In 1986, Michael Houlihan and his partner Bonnie Harvey purchased the brand and set about reviving “the Foot.” They launched the new “Barefoot Cellars” with two varietals: Barefoot California Cabernet Sauvignon and Barefoot California Sauvignon Blanc.

Barefoot is involved in thousands of charitable events worldwide.

I love a glass of wine every now and then to relax and wind down. Doesn’t everyone?! Barefoot Wines sent me two bottles to try Zinfandel andBrut Cuvée Champagne…that’s after the hubby and I went out and bought a delicious White Zinfandel by Barefoot. My best friend and cousin through marriage read my tweet that I was sitting down to have a glass of wine with dinner and she replied “Barefoot white zin is the best stuff on earth… seriously… love it!” The White Zinfandel is crisp. It has a light hint of fruit taste. The bottle says flavors like Georgia peach and pineapple, sun-ripened strawberries and succulent pear. Yum. I was a little worried when I saw that Barefoot sent a Zinfandel (red) wine. You see I can’t drink even just a glass of red wine without feeling like I’ve spent a night out on the town throwing back shots. No next day hangover. Yeah! It had a strong full taste, but not overbearing. This red wine would be perfect for a Sangria! We have a Brut Cuvée Champagne to try this weekend in celebration for a house warming party. I’ll definitely update with my thoughts on the Champagne.

One Barely Domestic Mama reader will win this fabulous prize below…

For Those About to Hop

Hop+Cd For Those About to Hop

The Imagination Movers – Rich, Scott, Dave and Smitty — began in New Orleans in 2003 and now are fast-rising stars on the national kids music scene thanks to their combination of radio-friendly songs, kid-friendly themes and dynamic live shows. In concert, the Movers teach high-energy dances, play games with the audience and make music on their one-of-a-kind trashcan drumset. Kids and parents help perform new kids classics like “Shakable You,” “The Medicine Song,” “What’s in the Fridge?” and “I Want My Mommy (Time for Bed).”

Finally a kid’s show that doesn’t make me want to jump out the window! Little Monkey LOVES the Imagination Movers. Very often I find him getting down, standing up, and then turning around and around and around…that is one of their regularly played songs in the show. Believe me it took me forever to wonder why my son would squat, stand up, and spin. I thought he was cool enough to come up with this on his own! The Imagination Mover’s just released their newest album “For Those About to Hop”! This was the first time I put on a children’s cd for Little Monkey. He was surely confused when he heard the music, but couldn’t see the show. Little Monkey definitely works up a sweat when this cd comes on and so do I – since we run around the house dancing to the cd! My fave songs are “Jungle Room”, “Mother in You”, and “Fix It Up” just to name a few.

One Barely Domestic Mama reader will win their own copy of Imagination Movers cd “For Those About to Hop”.
