Another Great Campagain from Bzz Agent

One of the best things about being a Bzz Agent is getting the free products to try . The smart food campaign is one that I was glad to get. The popcorn is probably a product I would not have picked up on my own . Since I have such bad migraines popcorn is something I do not and can not eat often or too much of . Too much of a good thing is not a good thing  ! I have had a couple handfuls of the Buffalo Cheddar popcorn and its very good and safe for my head  ! Love it so far !

Glade Expressions Collection



I am not a huge fan or store bought air freshners. Up until recently I did not even use them in my house because they gave me migraines. I have found  however I can tolerate certain scents, citrus being one of them.
I decided to go ahead and sign up for the Bzz Campaign when it came out . I thought It would give me a chance to try the Glade Expressions and see if i liked it with out spending any money on the items. this is one of the awesome perks of being a Bzz Agent .. trying new products. This campaign was great I was able to get free products to try and see if i liked them !

I am very glad I did ! I really enjoy the pineapple mangosteen scent .  Its a very "natural" and real scent so I am able to tolerate it well. The scent fills my house but it not over powering, I really like it !!

Glade Expressions Bzz Campagain !



Another great bzz campaign I just joined in on was the Glad Expressions . I recently used one of the free coupons to get the oil diffusers in Pineapple mangosteeen . Now I am very sensitive to scents, specifically  air fresheners, they give me migraines if the scent is too strong. So I was even leary about signing up for this bzz campaign . I was pleasantly surprised with the scent of the pineapple mangosteen. I pick up mainly fresh cut pineapple a tad bit of coconut . Definite island , tropical scents. its not too strong its just right ! I really love it !

A small project


We are still working on our retro vintage cabinet for my kitchen , We have had lots going on here.
But I picked this up on an online yard sale group for a couple bucks. Pretty the way it is .. But I am so tired of not having color in my house , I really wanted to jazz it up .

 So $1.97 can of spray paint later ...
No too shabby . It just fits on my wall !
