I think it’s so sad that there are so many people in this world who do everything in their power to try to get ahead at someone else’s expense. I was watching this video about people who can steal your identity and information off of the credit cards in your purse or wallet as they walk beside you on the street. How scary is that! There was a time when you only had to worry about people snatching your wallet or purse, but now they can steal from you without you even knowing.

After I saw that video it definitely made me want to get one of those rfid blocking wallets to keep my information secure. Even if you think you’re safe on the street you may not be. I don’t want to have to explain to my bank how someone stole my money without even taking my wallet!

I have been really fortunate to have good skin all my life, but I do have those problem areas. For some reason acne loves to attack the area of my face near my cheeks and under my nose. Those are the two most common places that I experience acne. I am not complaining though. I can usually get it under control right away. I just wish it would go away and never come back. I have managed to make it go away, but I cannot seem to make it stay away.

I would think there has to be a better product on the market. I have never used an official acne treatment, but it would be nice to try one. Maybe I can stop dealing with these yo-yo skin issues. I was reading one of those exposed acne treatment reviews and it was so helpful. It mentioned something about one of the main ingredients (benzoyl peroxide) being drying to the skin and potentially causing skin irritation. I never knew that about benzoyl peroxide. That is why I love reading product reviews! They are so helpful!!

Hey guys, I have another cool household freebie that I wanted to tell you guys about. This offer is for a free Charmin Mega Roll Extender. If you’ve ever purchased the Charmin Mega Roll toilet paper you’ve probably noticed that the toilet paper doesn’t fit properly on a normal toilet paper roll. That’s where the Charmin Mega Roll Extender comes in. This handy little contraption can be attached to your regular toilet paper holder so that the mega roll can fit. The cool thing about this freebie is that Charmin allows you to receive one or two of these extenders for free. That’s great for people with more then one bathroom in their home. All you have to do to get this freebie is follow the link below and fill out a short form.

I recently received my Charmin Mega Roll Extender in the mail and it’s really cool. I couldn’t actually use it though because I don’t use the same type of toilet paper holder. If you do use the plastic holder, this is a great freebie.

When I think about some of the best products I’ve discovered over the past few years, tea tree oil comes to mind. For those of you who don’t know know, tea tree oil is an essential oil that can be used for almost everything. Seriously. This stuff is amazing. The great thing about it is that a little goes a long way. You can literally do dozens of things with just a few drops each. When I first came across tea tree oil I used to think that it was kind of expensive, but after I discovered all of the uses for it I realized it’s probably a bargain.

Some things that I’ve discovered tea tree oil can be used for include general first aid (cuts, burns, abrasions), boils, eczema, dandruff, rashes, insect bites, bee stings, and razor bumps, just to name a few things. You can even use tea tree oil for acne. Awesome, right? That’s why it’s definitely a product that I don’t mind paying a little extra for.
