Incredible Last Minute Gift Ideas from Best Buy

In exchange for this post I was compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free.


With Expert Service and Unbeatable Price these top gifts are on my list this Holiday and here's why they should be on yours:


Xbox One is the place for games.


What is Xbox One?






Those who are not gamers will not understand, but some of my fondest winter moments with my daughters include hours of playing the Sims. Our favorite things to do are customizing our Sims and creating their homes from scratch. The game play itself is seamless and we can't wait to try out the new Sims 4 for Xbox One.

Xbox One was built by gamers, for gamers. With the best exclusive titles (Halo, Sunset Overdrive), the biggest blockbusters (Assassin’s Creed and Call of Duty) the hottest sports franchises (Madden 15, FIFA 15, NBA 2K15) and top family titles (Fantasia: Music Evolved, Just Dance 15, Skylanders) Xbox One takes gaming to a whole new level.

In addition to being a great gaming console, Xbox one connects consumers unlike any other device. Xbox One enables access to the latest TV shows and movies through your favorite apps. With Xbox One all of your media is at your fingertips when you want it.



JBL:



What good is your incredible playlist on your phone if only you can hear it? With a new JBL you can easily connect your bluetooth enabled device to an incredible sounding speaker and share your love of music with the entire house! My "Cleaning List" has gotten me through many last minute holiday cleaning marathons and my recruits (a.k.a. my daughters) are more willing to help when its THIS fun.
JBL Charge 2- Between the twin passive radiators for deep bass, the massive 6000mAh battery and the hands-free conference speakerphone the key benefit is the Bluetooth Social Mode which allows up to three different users to take their turns to play their own playlists on a single speaker.
JBL Flip 2- Aside from the dual performance-tuned JBL drivers and a built-in bass port, the key benefit of the JBL Flip 2 is the SoundClear echo and noise cancellation combined with the state-of the art microphone system to pick up calls on the speaker.
JBL Reflect Earbud headphones- Sweat proof ergonomic design. With a 5 hour rechargeable battery and a reach of about 40 feet, the JBL Reflect BT’s key benefit is the design of the ergonomic eartips along with the built-in magnets which keep your buds on standby without loose cables.

LG OLED is Now Available at Best Buy! The ULTIMATE Christmas Gift!

I have been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free.



There are very few things in life that just defy all expectations. Such is the case with LG's latest display technology. With deeper and richer colors, stunning contrast and ingeniously curved screens, it is unlike any technology you've ever seen, and it delivers a picture that exceeds your wildest imagination. You really MUST see this TV to believe it.

What is OLED TV?



Forget everything you thought you knew about TV's, this is whole different ball game. Possibly even better than theaters (and I REALLY love the theater). This is a smart TV, 3D and HDTV, all in one. Infinite contrast ratio and stunning color - the OLED TV delivers more natural, lifelike viewing. 

It comes with built in wi-fi AND web browser so you can find content faster with webOS.

The stunning design of LG OLED TV is only 0.21" thick at its thinnest point. Picture quality is spectacular, with Infinite Contrast that ranges from the most blazing whites to the deepest blacks. And, LG's exclusive 4 Color Pixel technology delivers bright, vibrant colors. 

If you've ever dreamed of a "Smart Home", this should be one of your first purchases toward that goal. The features I've listed here are only a small portion of what's available on this on product. Head over to LGOLEDatBestBuy.com and check it out for yourself. Or better yet, go to the store and see it! 

The OLED TV generally sells for $3999.99 but you can snag it at Best Buy EVERYDAY for $3499.99 and save yourself $500!

Go here and learn more about this awesome Home Theater Technology: LGOLEDatBestbuy.com

This is THE ULTIMATE CHRISTMAS GIFT this year!

Freya Arctic Cleansing Water - Review

I received a free bottle of Freya Arctic Cleansing Water for review purposes.


About Freya

Scandinavia is a land full of rich minerals and plant life that has been carefully preserved thanks to long standing commitments of the people to protect these life-giving facets of their homeland. It is a country where women are often praised the for the suppleness of their skin and Freya Skincare has tapped into these abundant resources to bring us Freya Arctic Cleansing Water.

Freya Arctic Cleansing Water

I have to admit that when I first tried my new bottle of Freya Arctic Cleansing Water I had a bit of a snafu. Apparently the same day that I tried it I had also ran out of my usual face wash and made the mistake of using soap (albeit one of those "moisturizing" body bars, it was still soap). My face broke out into a hot, dry mess.

At the time, I wasn't sure whether it was the soap or the new product that I tried so I stopped both of them for about a week until my face cleared up. Afterwards I went back to my regular face wash and began using the Arctic Cleansing Water again. Turns out, it works great. It actually even helped soothe the bit of leftover dryness that washing with soap caused me.

Now I've been using this product daily for a couple of weeks. I've seen a noticeable reduction in winter dryness and flakiness by applying the Arctic Cleansing Water after each wash. In addition to this much needed result, there are other ingredients that provided even more nourishment for my skin:

Aesthigel with Arctic sea salts & minerals: An effective and detoxifying skin cleanser and moisturizer

Aloe Vera: An effective skin conditioning agent

Caffeine: An anti-irritant. Caffeine also helps alleviate redness and reduces puffiness

Cucumber Extract: A calming skin conditioner that offers strong moisturizing abilities as well as a mild astringent effect

Chamomile Extract: A purifying skin conditioner that offers anti-inflammatory benefits as well as antiseptic and soothing effects

Red Raspberry Extract: A skin conditioner that also offers anti-inflammatory properties

If you are interested in trying Freya Arctic Cleansing Water for yourself, you can visit their website at Freya Skincare. Also make sure to follow them on Facebook and Twitter to keep up to date on the latest in Scandinavian skincare advancements.

Rent a Textbook and Donate a Smile

This is a sponsored post.

Operation Smile is an international charity that heals children's smiles. Every 3 minutes a child is born with a cleft and one in ten of those children will die before their first birthday.

That's where Operation Smile comes in.

Since 1982, Operation Smile — through the help of dedicated medical volunteers — has provided more than 3.5 million comprehensive patient evaluations and over 200,000 free surgeries for children and young adults born with facial deformities. Our work creates a lasting global impact. We train local doctors in developing countries and strengthen healthcare systems so more children in some of the poorest areas in the world can be treated.

Photo Credit Operation Smile


To see more about what Operation Smile does please visit their website to read stories about the children that they've helped. Like this story: Italian Navy Partners with Operation Smile to Reach Patients in Africa



Campus Book Rentals has chosen this worthy charity to donate to every time someone rents a textbook using their service.


By renting your college textbooks instead of buying them you can save anywhere from 40-90% of the cost. You can still highlight in them and the rental periods are flexible. You'll even get free shipping both ways!

Here's a video on how this great service works:


If you have already bought your own textbooks you can still take advantage of the their new RentBack program. This special program is awesome because it makes you 2-4x more money compared to what you'd make through buyback options!

Little Passports Teaches You The Symbols of the Sochi Spirit in the 2014 Winter Olympics!

Little Passports Teaches You The Symbols of the Sochi Spirit in the 2014 Winter Olympics! 

The Winter Olympic Games take place in Sochi, Russia this year! Host Countries and Cities love incorporating distinctive cultural details throughout each Olympics to share their history and spirit with the world. What are some features that make the 2014 Winter Olympics’ symbols unique? 

Join Sam and Sofia as they learn about three of the Sochi Games’ distinctive symbols—the torch, medals, and mascots! 

The Olympic Torch
The countdown to the Games kicks-off with the Olympic torch relay, which delivers the Olympic flame from Olympia, Greece to the Host City through a series of runners. For the Sochi Games, each runner carries an eye-catching, red and silver torch. 


The torch’s curved shape is inspired by the feather of the golden Firebird, a mythical creature celebrated in Russian fairytales and folklore. According to one legend, the Firebird’s feathers “light the way” and bring good fortune and happiness. You might notice patterns inspired by the Firebird and its feathers throughout the Sochi Games. For example, look for them on Team Russia’s uniforms! 


The Olympic Medals
The top three finishers in every event will receive one of the 2014 Winter Olympic medals. They are metal and feature an etched glass-like insert with jagged edges resembling mountain peaks and the seashore. This design highlights Sochi’s unique position between the cold snow-capped Caucasus Mountains and the warm sandy beaches of the Black Sea. 

The medals also feature the Sochi Olympics’ recognizable “Patchwork Quilt” design, a mosaic of 16 traditional patterns that celebrate Russia’s rich traditions and cultural diversity. Keep an eye out for the colorful quilt design everywhere at the Games, such as on the torch bearers’ outfits and Olympic souvenirs! 

The Olympic Mascots
Sam and Sofia can’t wait to meet the Snow Leopard, the Hare, and the Polar Bear—the 2014 winter Games’ mascots! The Sochi Olympics invited everyone in Russia to submit their ideas for the mascots, and to vote for their favorite from the finalists. Officials selected the top three finishers, representing the three places on the awards podium, as the official mascots. 


These three native Russian animals represent the country’s spirit and embody the Olympic values. The Polar Bear is depicted as friendly, intelligent and always striving for new athletic heights, while the Hare is an excellent student and loves sports. Tough and strong, the choice of the Snow Leopard, a native of Sochi’s nearby Caucasus Mountains and a critically endangered species, draws attention to Russia’s increasing focus on animal conservation. Look for the three Olympic mascots spreading joy and Olympic spirit throughout the Games! 

Sam and Sofia can’t wait to join their friends in Russia to support athletes from around the world. They are very excited to keep an eye out for all of these Olympic symbols as they watch the Winter Games this year!
