I don't know if it's a guy thing, but once my fiance and I moved in together, I noticed the toilet was frequently ending up with a ring in the bowl. I'd never noticed this issue before, and I had only cleaned my toilet bi-weekly!
I first started using those blue pucks that go into the back of the toilet, but the blue water made me feel a bit self conscious - would people think I was a very bad house cleaner???
I then started using the units that you clip onto the side of the bowl. Solved my blue water problem, but this giant puck was staring at me and still bothering me! Especially when it started to disintegrate and look rather gross.
I finally decided to try this gel after finding it at a P&G;clearance sale. I've never looked back! The applicator is small and easy to use, making it very convenient to store under the sink. The gel I bought was clear, so it wasn't even noticeable in the toilet. It lasts for a long time and prevents that ring - once it disintegrates, I give the toilet a clean with toilet bowl cleaner & the brush, and pop a new one on.
Super easy to use and has fantastic results.

Green Works Natural All-Purpose Cleaner

I love the idea of using green products to clean my home. I use vinegar to clean carpet stains and clean my microwave for instance. When I saw this cleaner, I wanted to give it a try for cleaning my kitchen counters. I have laminate counters, nothing fancy. However, I found that it was only okay at lifting dried stains and food particles and left a lot of streaks.
I wish it worked a bit better!

I am guilty of lying in bed in the morning for about a half hour, and then frantically getting up/dressed/on the move with only a few minutes to spare. I have a long commute, and normally I don't even have time to wait for the coffee maker to finish. I was fortunate enough to receive a sample of this product, because it's definitely NOT something I would have picked up on my own from the grocery store.
I love them! I literally just add hot water and give it a stir and It's ready to go. The flavour is delicious,and I am incredibly picky when it comes to having the right balance of milk/sugar.
My fiance likes to bring them on hikes and camping for the same reason - they're very easy to use since you don't need milk or sugar, and still tastes great.

I've always been skeptical of frozen boxed wings. I find most brands soggy and unappetizing. I happened to pick these up because the price was so right - and these have become my most favourite chicken wings - even better than some wings in restaurants!
I like that these wings come with sauce separately - If you're not a fan of sauce, or prefer to dip, these wings cater to ever palate at the table. There are a good mix of drumsticks/wings and they're not super cartilage-y (one of my other chicken wing pet peeves)
They're really easy to cook in the oven and come out perfectly every time. I buy these whenever I see them on sale, they are totally worth it!

My sister works in a pet store, so I get lots of free samples of cat treats - but nothing has made my cat as crazy as Greenies. I don't know what it is about them, but she loves them! They don't have that "kitty food" smell some other treats do, and... +

Charmed AROMA Velvety Peach
Okay, I love the premise behind Charmed Aroma - jewelry in candles? Two amazing things in one! However, I couldn't justify the price tag - $28 for a candle? Especially since the jewelry included is costume jewelry. But, I received one as a gift and... +
Okay, I love the premise behind Charmed Aroma - jewelry in candles? Two amazing things in one! However, I couldn't justify the price tag - $28 for a candle? Especially since the jewelry included is costume jewelry. But, I received one as a gift and I'm glad I did. The smell is amazing - it really permeates the room. It's long lasting. I also was lucky to receive a ring that was in my size. It's not bad! -
Jergens Moisturizer for Wet Skin with Green Tea Oil
Maybe it's because I'm lazy, or because my house is freezing, but after I get out of the shower I always find myself dressed before I remember to put on lotion. I received a sample of this moisturizer and I don't think I'm ever going to use anything... +
Maybe it's because I'm lazy, or because my house is freezing, but after I get out of the shower I always find myself dressed before I remember to put on lotion. I received a sample of this moisturizer and I don't think I'm ever going to use anything else again - it's so easy! The only thing is that it's only available in one size - I wish it came in larger containers. -

I'm not much of a chef, but I look to expand our household menu every so often. I like "quick" foods, because after my commute I'm usually very tired. I grabbed this from the grocery store because it called for two relatively inexpensive ingredients - red potatoes and chicken thighs. The instructions were so easy - add the seasoning to oil & water, and toss the ingredients. Pop it in the oven, and voila!
It's so delicious - not usually a chicken thigh fan but this recipe is delicious. The packaging says limited edition, but I hope they keep it forever!
