Get Chair Booster Seat from Mega Babies

No Comments »

I just had my first bub six months ago and just wanted to say how thrilled I am with the products at Mega Babies which is located in Brooklyn not far from where we live. They have such a wide range of infant cribs, baby cribs bedding, baby carriages and strollers, the prices are great, and the staff are very caring and helpful. We recently got bub a chair booster seat which he’s really happy in!

Combat Mice with Sticky Mouse Traps

No Comments »

The other night when I was sleeping I heard a scurrying and squeaking noise but I decided I must have been dreaming. The next morning I talked to my roommate and she heard it too – we had rats or mice! Ick. I’m an animal lover and vegetarian though so I was not going to call the landlord and have them exterminated – I’d do it myself with humane mouse traps. I googled it and found Catchmaster. I bought some humane sticky mouse traps and they worked a treat – I released the mice into Prospect Park!

Fly Safe with Compression Socks

No Comments »

I’m a young person and I don’t smoke, am not overweight or have high blood pressure – none of the risk factors for deep vein thrombosis – yet I’m terrified of getting DVT when I fly. So as well as drinking lots and lots of water, walking up and down the aisle and wiggling my legs regularly, I wear compression socks. These socks help keep the blood in your legs circulating and they give me lots of peace of mind. Jobst support socks are relatively cheap – I get mine from SupportSockShop.com.

Protect Your Furry Friend with Cat Insurance

No Comments »

I graduated a couple of years ago and my salary is still on the low side. I have a cat that’s really easy to care for – thanks to super cheap cat food and kitty litter from Costco. But my cat got in a fight recently and needed stitches – and I needed my parents’ help to pay the vet bill. The vet nurse suggested I look into cat insurance. I did, and realized it would work for me. I signed up with PetAssure.com and it suits my budget well – I can afford the pet health insurance premiums and have the peace of mind I’m not going to be hit with massive vet bills when my cat gets sick.

Add Hoodia Supplements To Your Weight Loss Regime

No Comments »

I’m making a concerted effort to get fit for summer; I’m exercising, riding my bike to work, eating well, etc. I’ve also started taking hoodia supplements from CurbNBurn.com, which I add to my delicious strawberry and banana smoothies, so they’re super easy to ingest (I hate big hard-to-swallow pills). So with my fitness and healthy eating regime well underway, combined with the all natural diet pills, here’s hoping I’m going to look pretty fabulous pretty soon!

This gentle bleaching cream keeps my skin looking vibrant while protecting against UV rays, which can lead to premature aging and even skin cancer. To block out UVA and UVB rays, I trust my skin to www.Makari.com!

Get EMS gear for camping trips from Dixeems.com

No Comments »

I have a young family and we go on plenty of camping trips, so I like to make sure we always travel with emergency medical supplies in case someone trips, get bitten by a snake, or whatever it may be. We purchased a small first aid kit from Dixieems.com, which sells a whole range of EMT supplies. The first aid kit has everything we need to treat small wounds and prevent infection. It’s important to us that everything in the kit is in its right place so we can quickly find what we need in an emergency situation.

Get CPAP masks to help tackle snoring from www.ventureresp.com

No Comments »

My husband has always been a really loud snorer and it’s something we’ve always joked about, but when it started to interrupt his sleep we knew the problem was more serious. After a trip to the doctor, we found out he has sleep apnea and so he requires CPAP masks and CPAP machines to keep his airways open and help him breathe more easily during the night. The CPAP masks have made a huge difference, and he can now sleep soundly during the night without waking up.

Get perfect teeth with Brooklyn Invisalign

No Comments »

I’ve always hated my crooked teeth, so last year, I started to look for a NYC braces orthodontist because I could finally afford the treatment. I went to see the orthodontist and he said that I was a prime candidate for Brooklyn Invisalign to correct my teeth. He took some pictures of my teeth and soon I got my first cast. I had to go back every few months for a new cast and I could notice my teeth becoming more aligned. Invisalign was so great because the clear cast is invisible, so I didn’t have to look like a dork in traditional braces. A year on, I now have the perfect smile!
