Venus Spa Breeze

I tried a sample razor from Venus Spa Breeze and will probably not go back to a regular one. It makes me feel so silky smooth. I have never felt this smooth with any other razor. The drawbacks? It is a little pricey and when the gel strip around it is gone its just another razor. But, when bought with coupons it is a great buy.


The disposable ones can be purchased here for 6.47

Boones Farm Strawberry Daquiri



Having just turned 21 I am trying all kinds of alcohol ( one at a time and in moderation of course) I have decided there is not a whole lot that I do like. But my husband has found one that suites my fancy. It is Boone's Farm Strawberry Daiquiri. A lot of you are probably saying " That's not alcohol that's Kool-Aid" well you are probably right but I have to start somewhere right? I can go to Walmart and get it for a little over $2. Which I love almost as much as the taste of it. There are so many flavors to choose from I cannot wait to try the rest.

Samsung Galaxy s3

I don't know about you but I rely heavily on my phone. I need it to be something fast, have a lot of storage, and can do almost anything.
 
Price:

Again, price is always first on my list. When I got a new contract with ATT the Galaxy s3 was only $39.99. Not to bad right? Well to buy it outright its almost $500. Not so great. But hey, it was cheap for me. PLUS I went through Walmart and was given a $50 gift card so really I got paid to sign up. 5 our of 5 stars.

Durability:

I have dropped this phone, spilt my tea on it, sat on it, and just about everything else that you think you will never do to it. It only has a few dings on the side. Not to shabby I didn't think. (Though it now has a screen protector and cute little owl case) 4 out of 5 stars.

Size:

I give the size 5 out or 5 stars. I love the big screen. It is easy to zoom in or out by sliding my finger up and down the edge of the screen. I can swipe my finger across to take a screen shot. I don't have to squint to see pictures. While in my texts I can use the Volume button to make the text size bigger or smaller.

Features:
 
Oh my, where to start on features. Let me start with what I use the most. The smart stay. I love to cook therefor i always need new recipes. The sensor senses my eyes and will not turn off until I look away. LOVE IT. I love all of my apps but one of my favorites it the weather one. I hate storms so my phone lets me know when there is an alert and I can pull it up and look at the weather and see whats coming on a big screen. I love the talk to text. I use it when I am to busy (lazy) to text or just not sure how to spell a word. Which brings me to my next feature which is when I am in a text and decide I just want to call them instead. I put the phone to my ear and it calls them for me. How great is that?? I do not love that it auto corrects everything! Most of the time it doesn't even make sense. It changed "I guess" to "I givers". Is that even a word?

Scentsy v Walmart brand


To order scentsy please email coricasebeer@gmail.com

OK, so I LOVE my candles. I love to walk into a room and it smell amazing. I've seen that Scentsy is everywhere but I'm a little concerned about the price. I also see that Walmart has the same wax bars and warmers for half the price. So, naturaly, I decided to try both.

Price:

Price is always the first thing I notice. Scentsy is obviously proud of their product. It is $5 per bar and the warmers range from $20 for a plug in $40 for the new premium warmers. Where as Walmart has a much more appealing price tag of $2.50 per bar and around $10 for a warmer.

Product Selection:

Scentsy has over 180 scents to choose from and adds a new one each month. They have two months a year where they also bring back 20 retired bars called a "Bring Back my Bar" month in January and July. They Change out Summer/Winter scents in March and September. Though I'm not sure of the exact number of Walmart scents since they have different brands like Scentsational Better Homes I did not find as many as Scentsy.

Product Availablility:

Walmart is obviously more convinient to run and get what you want when you run out rather than having to order and wait up to two weeks. Though I have seen Scentsy at almost every festival, yard sale, and expo that I have been to lately. There are usually multiple consultants per town and many of them carry stock.
 
How does it compare:

I have used both now and I will definatly stick to Scentsy. The Walmart warmers get to hot for my liking while Scentsy I can (and have) accidently spill on me and it not burn. The Walmart bars may be cheaper but I feel like I go through them twice as fast. Therefore spending the same amount in the long run. I also love that Scentsy is so much more than just wax and warmers but that will be in my next post. :)
