First off this product was super hard to find. I went to numerous grocery stores on different days before I was able to finally get my hands on it weeks later. Now I don't think it was a case of not shipping out enough product to stores, after having the first taste I believe this product wasn't readily available because it's so darn good that people are buying and hording it as soon as it's available in store! I literally got the last case in Metro and it was tucked away behind a case of regular Gingerale.
Let's move onto the actually product. The packaging is super fun and festive in my opinion. It feels like holidays, Christmas and family get-togethers all at once. You get 12 cans for approximately $6.99, which is average for a 12 pack of soda.
I was concerned that the taste would be overly sweet and perhaps taste artificial or that the ginger taste would be overpowered by the cranberry. However the two flavours are perfectly balanced and they're is no competition, they actually complement one another.
This drink is refreshing, crisp and satisfying. I think it is fantastic on it's own but would definently pair well with a number of alcohols.
I will be adding this to my weekly shopping list and hope that it will be available at my local store. I am aiming to have a few case on hand for holiday get-togethers. I also hope that Canada Dry may consider adding this as a permanent sku as I think it's a definite hit. I will be recommending to family and friends alike.

First off I really love Canada Dry Ginger Ale and I really love lemonade! So when I heard about this new limited time flavour I knew I would have to try it whether I got in to the Chickadvisor campaign or not....But luckily for me I was chosen to test out this product for an honest review!
After my very first can I knew this would be my new go to summer drink. I love how crisp and refreshing the taste is. It is the perfect combination or Ginger Ale and lemonade. It's not too sweet or too tart, which I find are two common faults of a poorly made lemonade.
It definitely is less carbonated than regular Ginger Ale which I don't think is a bad thing. I'm excited to also use this drink a mixer for some cocktails and mocktails!
I think this drink is a bit pricey at 5.49 for a pack of 12 however I'm sure throughout Summer I will be able to find it on sale and stock up. I will definitely be purchasing this drink again and we'll be recommending to all my friends.
I received this product for free from Chickadvisor in exchange for my honest review. Thank you to both Chick Advisor and Canada Dry Ginger Ale for the opportunity.

First of all I currently have a few patches of eczema, on both my elbows, under my chin and on the inside of my right wrist so this was a great opportunity to test this out.
About 2 or so months ago I was using a Hydrocortisone cream for the patch on the inside of my wrist after using the steroid creme I did get some relief but the skin on my wrist thinned out so much and was visable to the naked eye. Fast foward to about 2 weeks ago and I noticed my wrist is flaring up again. Now I still have some of the steroid creme left over but I decide to give the Vaseline Eczema Calming Creme a try as I was already cautious of my thinned skin but desperately needed relief. Sometimes in my sleep I really go at my patches and wake up with just shredded, scratched and bloodied skin (gross I know!).
After the very first time I applied this creme it instantly calmed the itching sensation and the feeling to claw at my skin. It's light in texture, scent and it absorbed in to my skin like a sponge. Within a few days my flakiness was gone and I noticed my broken skin was healing nicely.
Now I don't know if this creme will heal eczema completely only time will tell but I will continue using to see what the long term results are BUT this product does give instant calming relief from itching and irritation and that is what you're looking for when you have a flare-up.
This product is pricely very reasonably as I belive I saw it for approximately $7.00 in my local grocery store. I will be purchasing this once my tube runs out and I will be recommending this as an alternative to my family and friends who suffer from itching and irritation due to eczema.
Thank you to #Chickadvisor and #VaselineClinicalCare for this testing opportunity. #gotitfree #Vaseline

💅 Okay! So I finally had a chance to try out this new metallic polish from essie in the colour 92 LacedUpLilac. (I've always had a hard time growing my nails due to peeling and breakage) So that's why I was excited to try a product that curbs both!
After wearing this polish for about a week, I am happy to say I have no peeling or breakage so far. Usually my nails peel and break every few days and I can't keep up with applying a strengther, treatment and colour every week but with this bad boy I can apply 2 coats and be on my merry way! I'm excited to see what results continued usage will produce.
This lilac is the perfect shade for Spring. It's soft and whimsical and has just the right amount of metallic goodness. I'm excited to pick up the rest of shades to match all my summer looks. At just $10.00 each I would highly recommend this polish to friends and family. I think this is a steal for an all in one treatment that actually works to strengthen my nails.
Look out long sleek nails, here I come!

I received this product for free from ChickAdvisor to try in exchange for my honest opinion.
I quite enjoyed this primer and serum. I like the fact of combining two products in to one. When i'm getting ready in the morning any time I can save is helpful so I appreciate 2 in 1 products.
I loved the way this product smells. It's very light, airy and spring-like. The consistency is light and feels refreshing and not sticky at all. I felt like this product did give my skin a glow when used after my moisturizer and helped to to provide a smooth canvas for my makeup application.
Now that my skin is just coming out of the Winter months it can use all the help it can get and I feel like this serum gives my skin an extra boost. The only suggestion I would make is that this product would be a little easier to dispense and less messy if it came with a dropper or a better dispensing method than what it currently has. I feel like there would be less wastage of the product in the cap.
I do think you get a lot of product in this bottle as you only need 3-5 drops for full face coverage. The average cost is approximately $26.00 depending on where you purchase from. This bottle can easily last you 6 months plus so I think the value is there.
I would rate this product a 4/5 overall and would recommend to family and friends.

I received this product for free from Chickadvisor to test in exchange for my honest review. Lets start with the positives. I like the bottle this cleanser comes in. I love that it is in a pump bottle with makes it easy and convenient to use. One full pump is enough to cleanse my entire face even with makeup. This cleaner foams up really nicely and creates a rich lather.
The cleanser feels very luxurious on my face. The smell is nice and mild and I find myself inhaling deeply while cleansing because it smells so refreshing. This product washes off fairly easily and does not leave any residue what so ever. My only negative is a few minutes after cleaning I did feel my face get very tight and dry. Now I will say that just coming out of winter my skin has been very dry. So the dryness may not be from the cleanser itself but more as result of the current condition of my skin. After applying a litter moisturizer my skin felt fine again. I will monitor my skin and see once we are in to Spring how my skins feel after using it.
Depending on how my skin reacts to this cleanser once the Winter dryness is gone I may repurchase because overall I did feel like this product cleaned fairly well. The value for this product is pretty good. It only takes 1 pump to cleanse my entire face so this bottle will last a very long time and I believe is priced quite fairly.

I love EVERYTHING about these everything bagels!
I appreciate that they are pre-cut, especially when I'm in a rush to get out the door in the morning. I was also happy to see that these bagels have no artificial flavours or colours as nutritional ingredients are important to myself and my family.
I like to toast my bagel medium and then layer a generous amount of cream cheese on. I was happy to see the texture remained crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The texture was firm and not chewy or too doughy. The taste was fresh and the bagels stayed fresh even as the best before date came closer.I also appreciate the value as I believe these sell for $2.88 for a pack of 6. I will definitely be adding these to my regular weekly grocery list as both my husband and I enjoyed them and Dempter's is a name we know and trust! 2 bagels up for great taste and value!
I received these bagels free to try from family Rated. They were suppose to arrive for the holidays but I did not receive the coupon until January 19th, I think this was in part to do with the Canada Post strike and backlog over the holidays as well as a move in January and mail being redirected. Nonetheless I am happy the coupon arrived and grateful for the opportunity! You usually wait for the best things in life! #gotitfree

Shoutout to Vim and Chickadvisor for sending out this product right in time for Spring cleaning!
I have hardwood floors in 90% of my house so I am careful about what I decide to use on my floors. This product was gentle but still powerful enough to leave my floors sparkling.
I thought the scent of this cleaner was quite pleasant and not too overpowering. I love that a little product goes a long way so this bottle will last for a while. The pricepoint is great so I will definitely be telling my family to try this im floor cleaner out.

Okay, so I am a little bias when it comes to this product...because I actually love the smell of bleach! This little bottle packs a powerful punch when it comes to dirt and grime. The texture and consistency of this product is great. I can apply it to my shower walls and tub and it stays put so that it can penetrate through the grime. I leave the Vim on for a few minutes and when I come back the grime just wipes away! No scrubbing or rubbing. The only downside to this is that my arms don't get much of a workout so my muscles are small lol!
Love this product, price is great and works like a charm. Will definitely be repurchasing!

I love this product! The scent is fantastic and the cream consistency is great. Just a little product goes a long way. I love the way all of the surfaces in my kitchen and bathroom were left shiny and clean. There is something about a great scented cleaner, that when you're finished cleaning everything you just know it's clean because it smells that way.
