Review / Opinions:
I love using my reusable shopping bags because I feel like I am doing my part to help save the planet. However, with a family of six, we often have two shopping carts and use 30+ bags. Most times we struggle finding a place to put the bags while shopping. The bags take up too much room in the cart and the bottom is for the larger items.
Hookeez solves that problem. This is a very inexpensive way to stay organized in the grocery store.The Hookeez works well and is a no brainer to use! Hey even a guy could figure this one out! LOL!
Pros:
Hookeez gives you a place to store your shopping bags while shopping.
Free shipping
Cons:
I can’t think of any!

Adam’s Reserve Rubs – Peppercorn & Garlic Sear-N-Crust
Short Description:
The Adams Reserve line was developed by cooks for cooks. These flavor-packed rubs make roasts and steaks taste like they came out of a steak house kitchen. Blends of pepper, garlic, and spices are ground finer than most rubs to adhere to your meats better. This rub locks in juices to keep your meat moist and tender while providing a flavorful crispy crust on the exterior.
Review / Opinions:
First, let me say, Adam’s Reserve Rubs will turn your ordinary piece of meat into a masterpiece! We used the Peppercorn and Garlic on some thick cut boneless pork chops and grilled them. Usually when I grill this type of pork chop, they are very dry but this time I was the grill master!
I visited my local H-E-B to check out the whole line of Adams Reserve and I was impressed at the choices. There are so many to choose from and they have very unique combination’s. I now don’t cook without it!
The next time you want to fire up your grill be sure to grab some Adams Reserve rubs for your meats. For all you Texans check out the Cooking Connection at H-E-B. The Cooking Coaches prepare a variety of recipes every day. Stop by for some yummy samples. If you like what you taste, you can pick up simple recipe cards and the products you need right there in our kitchen. You can even ask a Coach for suggestions and alternatives.

Savvycents Wallet- For the fashionably frugal
Short Description:
The Savvycents wallet is not only functional but also fashionable. It contains everything you need to organize your monthly or weekly budget using a cash system. With an accordion style file system inside the wallet you can separate money and/or coupons by categories. Your wallet comes with file cards where you can label each category with our pre-printed labels. There are also blank labels where you can customize your wallet based on your personal categories. You no longer have to carry envelopes to separate your money and deal with loose change in the envelopes. A coin pocket is located on the backside of the wallet.
It also has 6 pockets for debit cards and store discount cards. On the opposite side there is a place for your driver’s license and a place for your checkbook.
Wallet is 8” x 4”
Color Choices : Black patent leather, red patent leather, and pink patent leather.
Review / Opinions:
The Savvycents Wallet is a very, very cool idea. Personally, we don’t use the cash system, but I think this is a great idea for those who do!
My wife loves the wallet because she can put her department store coupons in the Savvycents before she goes shopping and it prevents her from carrying the large coupon binder through the mall and it keeps her from stuffing them in her pockets and getting to the store and discovering that she has misplaced them.
She also uses the wallet for when she goes to the store to buy only a few selected items. The other day our little one wasn’t feeling well and she need to go to CVS for over-the-counter medication so she slid her Extra Bucks, her coupons, drivers license and credit card in and away she went. No purse needed.
So if you are trying to get out of debt by using the cash system (which works very well, you only spend what you have) or if you are like my wife who likes the convenience of having a smaller coupon organizer then check out the Savvycents wallet!

Scentsy- Flamless Candles
Short Description:
Scentsy Warmers use a low-watt bulb to melt specially formulated wax slowly, maximizing the fragrance time of the Scentsy Bar or Scentsy Brick.
With no flame, soot, smoke or lead to worry about, the Scentsy system is a safe way to enjoy more than 80 delightful Scentsy fragrances.
Review / Opinions:
My family and I love to burn candles to make our house smell good but there is only one problem… the spastic cat! We are so afraid that he will knock a candle over if we burn one, that we just don’t burn them!
My wife was very excited when we received our Scentsy. We have been using it a couple of months now and we love it! It is very easy to use and to maintain. My wife loves the beach scent, while my favorite is the cinnamon vanilla.
The Scentsy is a perfect alternative to burning candles. There is no soot, no fear of knocking it over, plus you have a large variety of scents to choose from and the warmers come in many different styles. We got one that was Asian looking which is awesome and matches much of the decor in our house.
I can also tell you the wax bricks last a very long time so you really get your moneys worth!
Wedding season is upon us and Scentsy would make a wonderful wedding gift!

Do your book shelves look like mine, all cluttered and stacked high with books? Do you have so many books you don’t know what to do with them all? If so, maybe you should check out BookSwim.
The thing I love most about BookSwim is there are no late fees. I can keep the book as long as I wish and not get penalized for it. I can’t tell you the library fines I have had to pay over the years! Plus, I don’t have to fight traffic to get back in forth from the library!
