Slice Products collaborate with the most innovative designers and take everyday products such as scissors, box cutters, and veggie peelers and rethink them. They have reinvented a lot of great products for the home, office, and school.

The Slice™ Safety Cutter is a handy tool to have around the house. It can be used in a variety of ways - not just one-dimensional (as you can see in the video above).  The safety cutter exhibits a finger-friendly microscopic ceramic blade that's quick, easy and a safe substitute for scissors or traditional safety knives. You will not have to worry about cutting your fingers while using it.  Slice Safety Cutters  are perfect for scrap-booking, clipping recipes, cutting several coupons and news articles, removing plastic from around your CD's or DVD's, and much more.  Includes a built-in magnet and key-ring hole...you can take it with you everywhere.

The ceramic blade will end up lasting longer much longer than steel blades, plus it will stay sharp and you will never have to worry about it rusting. The Slice Safety Cutter has a rubberized non-slip finish, which makes it extremely easy to hold. It is great for lefties or righties. The Slice Safety Cutter sales at a low cost of $5.99.

The Christmas season is quickly approaching and the Slice Safety Cutter would make a great stocking stuffer. Buy several and give them to your family or friends.

I have recently become a lifetime member of the Cooking Club of America. I love this club because it allows you to test some great products for free. You simply test the product and give your feedback. Thier website contains lots of great things as well: contest to win free products, recipes, cooking techniques, etc.

Please visit their website at www.cookingclub.com. Don't worry about the price because you can sign up for one year at a time and when you decide to become a lifetime member they deduct the membership fees that you have already paid from the lifetime cost. They also allow you to make low monthly payments.

So go ahead and give it a try. You will be glad you did.

If you are guilty of always having a Coke in your hand or you simply drink one a day during lIf you are guilty of always having a Coke in your hand or you simply drink one a day during lunch, you need to be taking advantage of the many rewards that are offered through the My Coke Rewards program. Coca-Cola launched this rewards program in 2006 as a way to give back to their loyal consumers. Participating in this program is relatively easy and does not require a lot of the participant’s time. Each Coke product is assigned a code, which is worth a certain amount of points. These codes, that are a mix of numbers and letters, can be found on all thirteen Coke brands: Coca-Cola, Coke Zero, Diet Coke, Sprite, Dasani, Power Ade, Minute Maid, Vault, Barq’s, Fresca, Pibb and Mello Yellow. Codes are found underneath the bottle caps (worth three points), on the inside of the 12 (worth 10 points) and 24 packs (worth 20 points) and on the inside wrapper of multi-packs (depending on the size, worth up to 32 points).

But, what do you do with the codes that you find? The answer is very simple. Create an account at www.mycokerewards.com and enter the codes. Keep in mind that there is a 120 point limit per week. The points that you accumulate each week can be redeemed for an unbelievable amount of prizes and rewards. Interested in taking the family to the movies? You can redeem your points for a family pack of AMC movie tickets. Do you have pictures of your last vacation on your camera? You can have those printed for free through the My Coke Rewards program. You can also add appliances and utensils to your kitchen, too, by cashing in your points. Your points never expire, so you can save them up and redeem for one of the larger items later on. At the current time, they are offering over 200 different prizes and rewards on the website.

But, there are other ways for you to spend your points other than rewards and prizes. You can donate your points to a specific charity or to your school, if they participate. Plus, for a few points, you can enter a variety of sweepstakes for much larger rewards, such as cruises and/or vacation packages, gift cards for large amounts of money, cameras and more. Or, you can play instant win games for chances at right then and there.

My family has been participating in the My Coke Rewards program since 2008 and has reaped the benefits many times over. We never miss our weekly limit of 120 points. How do we accumulate that many points 52 times a year? We certainly do not drink that many Cokes per week. The key to reaching your weekly limit is to have a lot of help. Our friends and family members that are not engaged in this program give us their bottle caps and the codes from 12 and 24 packs. Plus, my students give me their bottle caps, as well. It does take a little bit of time and effort to type those codes in. But the money we have saved and the activities that we have been able to do, for free, far outweighs the ten to fifteen minutes per week that it takes us to enter the codes. On a monthly basis, we redeem our points for free 12 packs of Cokes and free 20 ounce Power Ade. Plus, throughout our tenure as participants, we have enjoyed a day at Dollywood and will be taking in the sights of the World of Coca-Cola on our upcoming trip to Atlanta…all at no cost to us.

So, I encourage you to set up your account, ask your friends, family and co-workers to save their caps and pack codes for you, enter the codes each week and start enjoying being a Coke connoisseur. If you drink Coke products anyway, why not be rewarded for it.

  • Safe cleaning on hard-floor surfaces - especially hardwood floors
My Review:
I received this mop as a Christmas gift. I really like the mop so far. The first time I used it on my floors the pad was horribly dirty. I could not believe that they were that dirty becuase I sweep and mop all the time. I have used the mop on hardwood floors, ceramic tile, and laminate flooring. It cleans very well and it is very simple and quick to use.

I do wish that the cord was longer because some of my rooms are rather large and I have to change the plug a couple of times for those rooms.  I also wish that the compartment that holds the water was a little bigger. Again, when you are doing a bigger room, you have to refill a couple of times. I would also suggest having four pads if you have a lot of floors to clean becacuse the mop picks up a lot of dirt and grim from your flooring and you won't want to keep using a dirty pad. The pads are easy to wash as well. Make sure to never use powdered detergent, only liquid. The pads hold up well if they are properly cared for.

Some people get frustrated that you have to pump the mop occassionally to keep the steam going. Personally, it doesn't bother me because you can make short strokes and that will help keep the water pumped and the steam going wihle mopping. I don't think you would be disappointed in purchasing this mop. I have enjoyed using it. It certainly beats the traditional way of mopping. I also like the fact that you don't have to keep buying pads because the pads with this mop are reusable.

These mops generally sell for around $99; however, you can sometimes find great sales which can lower the price to $59-$79. I know that seems like a lot for a mop, but you it is worth it because it reduces dust and allergens, as well as, sanitize better than other floor cleaning methods.

We were very fortunate to have the opportunity to review several household and automotive cleaning products, courtesy of the fine people at Sonic Scrubbers. In all, they sent 22 different tools and replacement pads for us to use and critique. The tool that we used first was the Scrubbing Bubbles Power Toliet Scrubber. I have used this item several times and it works wonderfully. It has great scrubbing action and cleans and santizes much better than the regular toliet brush. See the video below to see this in action. I have had the opportunity to use the Power Household cleaning tool as well. These products are great because they take out the hard work while cleaning. You don't have to scrub and scrub anymore. All you have to do is hold the tool and let it do the scrubbing for you. The brushes and pads don't scratch the surface as they clean either. These products are a must have for every household. We have given away the extra tools so that others can try them out and let us know what they think. We have gotten nothing but positive feedback. One lady has athritis and she loves it because it is much easier on her hands than the old way of cleaning.
 
The great folks at Sonic Scrubbers has graciously given us a coupon code for our readers to use. Use the code b999 to recieve the Power Household Cleaning Tool and Toliet Scrubber for $9.99, which is a huge savings. You will also recieve 20% off accessories.
