3 C's of Survival Keychain Review #Survival #Emergency #KeyChain #Kit EDC KeyChain


I've been looking for a survival key chain for a long time now. There are two things that I never leave home with out. Those two things are my keys, and something that attaches to them with my everyday carry items. This Paracord Keychain Emergency Kit gaps some of those items that My EDC Keychain was lacking in. I didn't have a Whistle before, Fishing Kit, Measuring Tool or a Compass on my Keychain before.


I also like that this survival keychain does have some of the C's of Survival.

Cordage (with the Paracord, and Fishing Line.)
Combustion (With the Flint, and Tinder.)
Cutting (With the Cap Opener/Scrapper.)


I really like the Keychain has a Carabiner at one end, and a regular Metal Loop at the other so that I can attach my Knife, and Flash Light to. I received product for Review. Overall I am very pleased with this Keychain, and the moment it came I already attached my Keys, Knife, and Flash light too. I am keeping it on me at all times, since I attached my Car Keys to the Carabiner end near the whistle, and Bottle Opener Tool.

I received Product free for Review, Check the Keychain out on Amazon by going here, https://www.amazon.com/BEST-Paracord-keychain-emergency-kit/dp/B01KNDYHAM/ref=cm_cr-mr-title

#ShareYourSight You Buy A Pair, They Donate A Pair! @glassesdotcom #Ad http://bit.ly/2biDvTm


I wanted to share with you all this amazing website that gives back when you purchase a pair of glasses. 1.1 Billion People do not have access to an eye exam, let alone a pair of glasses. Together we can change that with Glasses.com partnering with OneSight. I love what this company is doing. After a customer purchases a pair of glasses, Glasses.com donates a pair of glasses to OneSight. They donate to both Local, and Global OneSight Vision Clinics. Since 1988 OneSight Vision Clinics have served 9 million people in 41 Countries and 49 States.


I really believe if you are ordering Eye glasses or Prescription Sun Glasses for yourself, your spouse, and your children, at least order them from a site like Glasses.com that have what I consider great values by donating to OneSight for every pair bought. As a customer all we have to do is go about our normal Order, and Glasses.com does the rest.



I ordered mine online. Ordering Online was easy. There are so many name brand frames, and even prescription sun glasses to choose from.  We had a lot of fun with the Virtual Try On App.  My kiddo is autistic, and sensitive to light. Well fitted Glasses, and Prescription Sunglasses are a must when we go out. I saw great styles for the whole family. What I like about Glasses.com, is that it's great quality eye glasses, and a 100% satisfaction guarantee, if the frame, or glasses are not what you want, you can either have them adjusted at a Lenscrafters Store, or you have 15 Days to return, free. They have whats called a Free In-Home Try-On. I don't know of any other glasses site that does that.



I also wanted to point out the great customer service Glasses.com has. I immediately got a rep the moment I hit recent order on the dial pad. And she walked me through how to measure my sons pupil through the ridge of his nose, and to the center of the other pupil. I can say if you have any questions, or concerns, definitely call glasses.com, She was one of the nicest Reps I have talked to in a long time about an online order, and how to email them my RX. After I got off the phone with the Eye Glass Specialist Rep from Glasses.com, My glasses were here the next day!

Fantasy Kingdom of #Bottersnikes & Gumbles are now on #Netflix #Spon

I am a huge fantasy nerd. I grew up on Jim Henson, J.R. Tolkien and Brian Froud Art. I share that love with my family now. So when I come across series on Netflix like Bottersnikes & Gumbles that have great animation, catchy tunes soon as the show starts, and is funny with positive life lessons, I want to share that with my family, and friends. I really enjoy the detail to these characters personalities, and the artwork on this series. They are based on childrens books that were published between 1967 - 89! The detail of the characters from the Books, are definitely shown in detail in the series too.

Tink is hilarious to me. His personality reminds me of my Son, who wants to do everything himself, and only his ideas, but is learning that you have to listen to others, and play together. My son also reminds me of Glob. Glob, and Tink are so much a like even though physical appearance they are different. You really need to check this series out. It's playful, and just overall a blast to watch the high energy Gumbles, and the oh, so serious, Botternikes.




"Bottersnikes & Gumbles" was released on Netflix this month.  There are 26 episodes.  This show is currently on the Seven Network in Australia and on CBBC in the UK. The "Bottersnikes & Gumbles" series is based in a fantasy kingdom of rusting junk and abandoned things from the human world. This series is based on a beloved series of children's books.

Ways to Afford Back To School Shopping with @Ibotta #Rebates #ShareTheLuv @Luvs #Coupons #Ad




It's that time of the year again.  As the older kids go back to school, and we need to budget it in to afford School Supplies, Clothing, and Shoes.  I love sites like IBOTTA that has rebates, and printable coupons to use on products that I already buy so it's a great incentive to receive money back, and to save money on products.  It's like spreading the love around.

Example: I have to buy diapers anyways.  So I am going to use the IBOTTA $5.00 Rebate for buying the 54ct of Larger Box Diapers, and use that $5.00 Rebate $ on my other childrens School Supplies.




  • First I am printing the $2.00 off Luvs Diapers Coupon to use on my store transaction. (Don't forget you can print two per computer. Use this coupon at any mass, discount, or grocery stores where Luvs Diapers are sold.




I try to think of it this way- I am already buying products, I might as well buy products that I get money back from, and items that coupons are available for.  I am always trying to find a great deal, and I love that ibotta, and luvs have rebate options, and printable free coupons. I like to save money this way, so when Back to School, and the Holidays approach, and yes, they seem to approach in warp speed, I have a little money saved for things I need to purchase that isn't in the budget.
