Proudly Brings you Week #7 of Holiday Surprises Giveaways

RYOBI takes Cordless to the next level with the 40-Volt Lithium-ion Blower. With a 40-Volt battery pack, this blower delivers longer run-time, fade-free power and quick charging. Specially engineered for hard surfaces and smaller yards, this blower features a variable speed trigger for adjustable power and a quick charger that does the job in less than 2 hours so you’re always just one charge away from a perfectly tidy outdoor living space. All backed by a 3 year warranty, there’s never been a better time to consider Cordless.


I recently had the pleasure of trying out this Ryobi Blower and it performance 
was outstanding. The power behind the lithium-ion battery performed better
than the old electric blower that I own. The light weight of the blower minus having
to worry about pulling a extension cord behind you was much easier on my back. It
usually took me around a hour and a half to completely take care of my entire yard
but with the Ryobi Cordless Blower I was done in less than a hour without even stopping
to recharge the battery. When I was finished with my yard my neighbor was amazed
with this cordless blower and asked if  he could use it on his front yard, I told him I wasn't
sure how much more the battery could go since I had just cleaned up my entire front and
back yard. Well to our amazement, the Ryobi Cordless Blower powered through his stack
of leaves and twigs that had collected in his yard with no problem what so ever.

The variable speed trigger made cleaning up a ease by being able to have more power
available at your finger tips if necessary, while using less for those area's that didn't
need as much power to clear. Before when I would use my old electric blower my
wrist would ache for hours after the stress the handle would put on them. This wasn't
the case with the Ryobi, since the handle is ergonomically designed for easy one handed
operation. One great feature is that the nozzle is tapered making it easy to remove those
stubborn areas that a normal blower was just leave. I give this blower 5 stars and plan
to buy both my sons one for Christmas for their homes.








This Prodigy Series Commercial 5 piece was designed for the professional
and home cook who shop for the exceptional value and want a reliable
knife set without spending a bundle. Designed for ergonomic comfort and
precision. The blades are crafted from high carbon stainless steel and have
a 18 degree cutting edge so that they can slice, chop or carve up any food
product that you need. The handles are seamlessly molded to prevent bacteria
issues and provide a non slip grip for precise control and safety. This knife set
includes the following: 8" Chef knife, 8" Bread knife (Offset), 7" Santuko knife,
6" Boning knife, and a 4" Paring knife. Enjoy preparing meals with the Prodigy Series.

I have had the pleasure of using this knife set and I can truthfully tell you it is made
of quality material and expertly designed. After suffering from Carpal Tunnel in my
wrist for years I always dreaded the thought of preparing meals due to the pain I
would have in my wrist afterwards from using our old store bought knife set that
had a hard time slicing butter more less meats. The first time I used these, I  went
over to our drawer and took out our old knifes and threw them away. With this set
of knifes it is now a pleasure preparing a meal for my family. Chopping up vegetables
with the 7" Santuko knife takes no time at all and the best part is I have no pain in
my wrist now due to the Prodigy's ergonomic designed handles. I give this set 5 Stars
any day of the week.

The AquaNotes Giveaway


Holiday Contest and Sweeps
Along With




Proudly Brings You The AquaNotes Giveaway



Have you ever been in the shower and have a idea pop into your head,
and then forget about it before you get dry? Well I have the solution that
will save your brilliant idea from being a past thought. AquaNotes is a cool
product that allows you to write down those thoughts right in the shower. It's
waterproof capabilities prevent another idea to go down the drain.
AquaNotes® are made of waterproof paper that is totally recyclable, environmentally friendly, and non-toxic. Each pencil is water resistant and is made with Incense Cedar wood, a responsibly harvested renewable resource meeting stringent environmental requirements. Even the ink used to print the logo and company information on the notepad is soy based.
The product is designed to withstand exposure to wet environments. Water simply beads up and rolls off AquaNotes. Each 3.5 by 5.25 inch pad has 40 sheets of paper and each sheet is perforated for easy removal. AquaNotes easily and quickly attaches to any smooth surface with two suction cups that are secured with a stem-based cap. Pencils are secured with a suction cup pencil holder that provides convenient access whenever the need arises to write down an idea while you’re in the shower.

I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoy this product along with
knowing that no more shower thoughts will be forgotten. With Aquanotes
 suction pad, it allows you to stick both the pencil and the pad to your
shower wall for easy access. It's unique design makes it simple to put
your thoughts to pad. 

Let's meet this inventor of Aquanotes himself, Mark

"The idea for waterproof notepads came from a Shower Thinker who always generated his best ideas and insights in the tranquility and solitude of a nice warm shower.

He began keeping a standard notepad and pencil outside his shower door to capture those ideas. Invariably, they ended up soggy, torn, and oftentimes illegible before he could get them back to his office. He experimented with a variety of waterproof writing apparatuses before his idea evolved into AquaNotes®….a waterproof note pad with paper that could easily be removed from the pad and taken with him to the office or on an errand.

The development of AquaNotes® made this Shower Thinker’s life more complete. But, after marrying, a new necessity arose…the need to have a special water-proof notepad on which to leave love notes in the shower for his wonderful bride. That’s when Aqua LoveNotes®was created."

This fun waterproof pad is not only handy in the shower, it is also great to place
above your kitchen or bathroom sinks. If your like me it seems my best ideas
always seem to come when there is no pencil or paper to write them down. I
received some samples of these amazing pads to review and I can tell you I easily
give them 5 stars. After looking these over I had placed one above the kitchen
sink and didn't tell my wife it was waterproof. She simply thought it was just another
sticky note pad. Well she came home and eventually made it into the kitchen and
seen the pad, she asked if she could jot something down and I told her sure. After
she had finished with her thoughts I walked into the kitchen and removed the pad
from the wall. She had filled the sink with water so I took advantage of this and
dropped the pad into the sink. She immediately stated the her note was ruined
that she had just wrote on the pad. I reached down and picked up the pad and showed
her that her remarks were perfectly fine with Aquanotes.

AquaNotes also comes in different styles such as Aqua LoveNotes, Aqua Fun Notes-
Word Search and Aqua Fun Notes-Maze. Refills can simply be ordered by visiting the
AquaNotes Website.
