Giving Thanks for Giveaways!

Here at MommyBlog Reviews we know that shopping for the holidays is tough.

From the budgeting to the picking of the gifts you never feel quite sure you made the right choice. Or, if you feel you made the right choice, you probably feel like you spent too much. If you don’t suffer from either of these problems, you need to write an e-book on gift buying because I know a bunch of people who will buy it! *laugh*

Due to writing deadlines (did you know I was a professional writer?) I have been slackalicious on my giveaways and my poor closet looks like I looted a boutique, a department store, and a spa.

You all NEED this stuff! You can keep it for yourself or your child, or give it as a holiday gift to someone and know you are giving a high quality item for a whole lot of nothing in terms of cost.

This month there are six giveaways. Yep, SIX. The first one will go up tomorrow morning and they will continue through November 28th. Here’s what’s coming up in the giveaways this month:

  1. Chex Mix Spa Packages (Package of Chex Mix bars and cool spa stuff.)
  2. Glide 2 Ride Bike (Your choice of pink or blue)
  3. RK Knudsen Sensible Sippers (free juice boxes and a t-shirt)
  4. Crayola Digital Camera
  5. Precious Girls Club (book and online access card)
  6. BabbaCover infant seat covers (super cute and really functional!)

So get your comments ready, tell your friends, and best of luck to everyone! As usual, we will be using Random.org to pick winners, most prizes are shipped directly from the company so they may take a while to get to you, and for the week of November,here are how to get extra entries:

Who Wants THOSE Kids? (Club BK Review & Offsite Sweepstakes!)

You know the kids I mean. When you go out in public and you’re trying to be all normal and the family across the restaurant has the beast-child wailing and complaining.

My deepest fear is having THAT kid. So we don’t eat out much. When we do it’s usually take out to our house. Since they’re toddlers they are like little bombs waiting to go off. They fight so much at home that when I take them out I have to take a whole boatload of activity stuff (because, of course, they won’t just….EAT…that’s not entertaining enough!)

The one time we went out for a family member’s birthday to a nice restaurant the girls got into a food fight that involved four other tables glaring at us and muttering and looking very violent while they hated us from afar. Afar was till way too close for my comfort.

So we bring crayons, paper, and other various and sundry junk in a backpack for the rare occasions we eat out.

Because, really, who wants to be on the receiving end of those looks. Not me, thankyouverymuch.

One of the safe places to go is Burger King, because they have that whole Club BK thing that my kids like and now I hear they’re coming out with new Crayola toy packs to help me keep my toddlers in check!

Thanks to the Parent Bloggers Network Blog for alerting me to this sweepstakes! It seems fun and if you want to participate, you have until the end of the day today – full details at the Parent Bloggers Network Blog!
