Love these t discs from President's choice. They have quite a few types - light, medium, bold, cappuccino and are decent prices compared to other places.
If you have a Tassimo and you have no tried them out, I suggest you do it. I like them better than Tim Horton's or Nabob and they are cheaper.

My boyfriend has Keurig and I have a Tassimo, so I drink from both quite regularly.
I like the Keurig for these reasons:
lots of choice to choose from
cups are cheaper usually than tassimo ones
like the look of the keurig machine
what I don't like
you can't make lattes (with milk) the way you can do with the Tassimo
always buying new packages of cups can get $$ and annoying, if you don't look for sales
however, if you are a coffee drinker, I would suggest you invest in it, it is easy and fast and convenient.
I don't like it so much for tea, because I drink loose leaf tea, and not tea bags, so the teas from these machines tastes like tea bag teas, but some people like it.

One of my favorite places to shop for clothes and accessories. The prices are pretty good, they always have new things in and always on trend.
The stores are nice, although sometimes I find there is little space between isles, so it is hard to navigate.
Their sales are great also, especially if you get there in the beginning.
Good store to buy basics and staples, white tshirts, pencil skirt, blazers, etc.

I love to browse and shop on Etsy for a few reasons, a lot of things are handmade and fresh, and can be made to your needs/specifications.
It has really cool, creative, interesting, trendy and new things that you would not find in stores.
I can waste hours on there just looking at things.
The one thing I hate is the shipping, it is too often so high, it discourages me. Besides one experience, most other I had on there was good, nice products and also customer service.

Love Nutella, I don't know the person is that said it was average, but they are crazy.
I constantly try to find new recipes using Nutella and trying them out. I sometimes put it in my coffee for a nice touch.
Although I agree it is not crazy nutritional, it tastes oh so good, that once in while I cannot help myself.
Seriously, check Pinterest for recipes using it, you will be amazed at how creative they are.

I have been using this cleanser for a few weeks, once a day and here are my pros and cons:
pro
it does exfoliate gently
bottle is quite big, so it will last
easy to get at a drugstore
cons
smells funny, some people like it, to me it is too fragrant for a face cleanser
does not do anything significant to my skin, my pores have been the same
too liquid for me, wish it was a bit thicker
Overall, it is an OK cleanser, I don't think I would buy it again, as I am not impressed with it.

Veet Suprem'Essence Hair Removal Cream with Hydro'Restor in Velvet Rose

I used to use this all the time, before I got laser hair removal on my legs. It works pretty well, except for the first few times when you have to figure out the perfect time for you. I had to leave it in a bit longer than what it says on the bottle because I have dark thick hair and it would not come out under 10 minutes. The smell can be bothersome, so I usually leave a window or two open.
Pros:
Quick and easy
No cutting as with shaving, or pain as with waxing
Cons:
Does not last long, a few days, at most 4 maybe, a day or two longer than shaving
Can be messy till you learn to apply it properly and doesn't go everywhere
Can be expensive depending on how often you use it

I don't wear eyeliner often because I don't have the time for it and I don't like how it looks on me, but I do like these types of eyeliners.
I'll wear them usually for a special event, to brighten up my eye area and my face. For those who only wear dark eyeliner, it may seem weird, but it does make your face and eyes look more awake and bright. Also because I use it so rarely, it lasts me forever and a day.
Benefit has a similar one also, and I use it when I don't have this one on hand.

Olay Complete All Day Moisture Lotion SPF 15

This is my go to lotion when I am not trying something new. I buy it when it goes on sale, and it is a great basic lotion. It has a bit of SPF, which is great if you are not in the sun all day. Also the bottle is bigger, so it lasts a while, compared to the usual 50ml pots of lotions.
It doesn't do anything special (it does not promise to do anything), but it does moisturize quite well.
So if you want a good basic lotion, this is it. Just wait for a sale or promo.

I really like these glosses from MAC, they are shiny and thick and make my lips feel nice. Also MAC has tons of shades and they always come out with new ones or repackage old shades.
I do wish the price was a little lower, as I lose lip products or use them up quick.
