Ozeri Baby Bath Floating Turtle Toy and Bath Tub Thermometer

Ozeri Baby Bath Floating Turtle Toy and Bath Tub Thermometer

Moving my daughter to the big tub, I had concerns about getting the water temp correctly, so I opted for a bath thermometer that looked fun but does the job. This turtle bath thermometer definitely does what it says it does.

I put it in the tub after having the water run for a minute and the LED quickly turned blue and the degrees started to rise and stayed that color all the way to 95 degrees. I figured 90’s would be about right, but little did I know, I was making her bath water a little too cold according to the package details. When the LED screen turns green with the degree, then it’s just right and then it will go to red for too hot.

My daughter loves playing with it too, well more like holding onto it while in the tub and doesn’t let go, not even when we take her out. She loves this thing, may even persuade me to get a real turtle when she’s a little bit older.

So far I haven’t had any battery corroding issues nor LED display issues that some other folks have had, but I shall update if I do!

 

Ozeri Moderna Artisan Series Double Wall Beverage Glasses Review

Ozeri Moderna Artisan Series Double Wall Beverage Glasses Review

Are you one of those plastic cup collectors because your glasses end up breaking and not lasting more than 6 months? Yeah me too! There’s nothing classy or modern about plastic eatery, so I was looking to upgrade with something a little more stylish and hopefully long lasting. These Ozeri Moderna Artisan Series Double Wall Beverage Glasses on Amazon caught my eye because of their shape and their thick double walls.

Ozeri Moderna Artisan Series Double Wall Beverage Glasses

 

These glasses come in a set of 4 or 8 and in size 8, 12 and 16 oz. I opted for the 8 and 12 because I knew these were probably going to be a little bit thicker than normal glasses with their double walls, AND because I have very little cupboard space and I was right.

I figured these would be perfect for when we upgrade our house (wishful thinking) and have a man cave with a bar or what have you.

In the photo above, I made a coffee beverage and noticed that it kept the glass cool enough for me to grab onto and hold, which was nice — no burning hand!

You may notice that there are dimples in the glass which were hand blown to help with gripping since these are kind of wide like mentioned above.

I’ve used the 12 oz for bedtime ice water and love that there’s no condensation which leave my coaster hanging on for dear life.

I like the fact that these can also be used in the dishwasher and microwave. I’ve tried the dishwasher already and everything has came out fine and sparkly clean.

Love these glasses, they seem to be very well made.

 

10 Sites You Can Earn Amazon Gift Cards for FREE!

10 Sites You Can Earn Amazon Gift Cards for FREE!
 

Every time Christmas or Birthday’s roll around, I usually have enough Amazon gift cards saved up to purchase all my gifts for absolutely FREE! All it took was a little bit of my time out of the day to earn them. Some of these websites are survey companies, GPT (get paid to) sites, and search engines. I have written a previous post on how to complete GPT offers that you can check out if you’re interested, or have never heard of them. Read it over, it has plenty of useful information.

  1. Swagbucks (Search Engine Reward Site) – This site is pretty much a must-have for everyone who is on the internet. You search the internet anyway so why not get free prizes for it? All you do is install their search engine add-on and search like you normally would. Now, they do have it to detect if you are just typing random stuff right after another to try and win. You won’t get Swagbucks by doing that, so I wouldn’t waste your time. Usually, the win times seems to vary hours after your first win of the day. So, say you do some searches in the morning and win, you can probably expect to again later in the evening. =) It’s quite easy, nothing to it really… and if you install their toolbar they randomly give away free Swagbucks and occasionally they will post trivia on their twitter site. Also, if you refer people to Swagbucks you get what your referrals win. It is definitely a win/win situation.
  2. Opinion Outpost (Survey Company) – You do need to have a minimum of $5.00 in points to request an Amazon gift card, which can easily be accomplished by completing only 2 surveys. They range from 2.00 – 10.00 that I have been sent thus far. You will receive your gift code instantly upon request. That’s one great thing about this site!
  3. Points2Shop (GPT site) – This is my top money making site and so far I have received $1144.58 worth of cash and prizes. When you are from UK, USA or CA you get 15% of what your first level referrals earn, 3% of the second level and 2% of the third level. On top of that, you can also earn up to $1.00 for each member you refer. If you don’t want to earn points to spend on Amazon.com you can always join their sister site, cashle.
  4. Cashle (GPT site) – Sister site to Points2Shop. Can transfer cash earned into your PayPal account or into an Amazon Gift Card.
  5. Zoombucks (Search Engine Reward Site) – Same mechanics as Swagbucks.
  6. Cash Crate (GPT site) – The minimum payout is 20.00. And they will mail your check on the 15th after each month that you meet your minimum payout. For example, if you earn at least $20.00 in October, They will mail your check on November 15th. You currently earn 20% of what your referrals make and 10% of what their referrals make. You’ll also receive a $3.00 bonus for each referral who earns their first $10.00. I won a Nintendo Wii in one of their earnings contest.
  7. iRazoo (Search Engine Reward Site) -Same mechanics as Swagbucks
  8. Rewards1 (GPT site) – This one has a minimum cashout of 5.00 and you can request it daily.
    Referral bonus of 20% (and up to 30%) of what they make forever! Earn more by getting active referrals! Every month they check to see if you’ve gotten over 50 or over 200 active referrals and adjust your referral percentage accordingly! You’ll get a 25% referral bonus for referring over 50 active users and you’ll get a 30% referral bonus for referring over 200 active users!
  9. Mturk – Amazon’s quick task job site where you can earn money for completing various job tasks that users have implemented on Amazon. A great little side hustle if you need cash or gift cards.
  10. Valued Opinions – (Survey Company) – Similar to that of Opinion Outpost.

If you would like a little bit more information or more opinions on these companies that I have worked with, don’t hesitate to ask. I am here to help you, just as much as I am here to help myself.
