If you were here yesterday, you were able to learn all about the different effortless meals options through Wal-Mart and Coca Cola right now... If you need to refresh your memory, head on over to check it out...  (BIG thanks to The Coca-Cola Company for providing compensation for this blog post.)  I wanted to take the time today to tell you about our experience with them!  
Of course, the colder the better on our beverage of choice!  Coke!   Being in the south, you know we also have Mason Jars to drink out of! Really?  Is there anything besides Coke and Sweet Tea around here?  (Yes, we do drink water!)

Broxton actually chose the Chicken, Bacon, Ranch sandwich that he wanted to eat.  It was LOADED full and I cut it into 4ths for us to try it out... We still had leftovers!  
 Broxton decided that he wanted to try the Roast Beed that daddy had chosen and he really seemed to enjoy it as well.  I loved the Roast Beef and it is still up in the air as to what our favorite would be.  I loved that although it was already made and in the wrapper, the bread and sandwich tasted fresh, as if it was just made specifically for us!  
 For a different dinner option one evening, we went with the side items (that night we actually got potato salad, macaroni salad and coleslaw)  and paired it up with an original rotisserie chicken.  Broxton enjoys this chicken just as much as we do and it makes me happy knowing we are eating a "sit down" meal together, but that I did not have to go and cook all night, missing out on family time!  
By shopping at Wal-Mart for effortless meals, we were able to spend more time outside and not worry about being in the kitchen.  We even got to save money and bought Broxton a kiddie pool for him to enjoy outside on these hot summer days!
To add more to our summer, we even bought him a few outdoor toys and he just had to have a windchime for us to enjoy while being outside!
To me, making these memories is so important right now...
I am so glad that Wal-Mart has these options to provide meals that taste great for our family!
As a huge My Coke Rewards fan...  I love that by purchasing these items, we can gain even more points!

    We stopped at our Wal-Mart last night and the expansion for the grocery section isn't yet open. :( They're saying it'll be ready sometime between August and October.

    Last night, though, my husband was saying that he was in the mood for a cold sandwich rather than a hot meal. And don't you LOVE those summer dinners that don't require you to heat up the kitchen?! I wish we had these Wal-Mart items as an option.

    I do the MCR points too! You don't even wanna know how many caps I have backlogged and need to enter. It's BAD. My tummy literally grumbled when I saw Broxton's sandwich, by the way. lol

      No problem! They only run it sometimes but it usually lasts a month or two at a time so be sure and ask at your deli because it saves you a few bucks :) I hope you can catch it~have a nice weekend!

      They are so good... but they are HUGE - so you don't need many to feed the whole family :)

    I don't know why I haven't ever purchased from their Deli **hits self on forehead**. I am from the South too, (NC) and it's already so darn hot here I rarely feel like cooking. So a coke and some sandwiches with sides sounds like the ticket!

      I like that the sandwiches are great cold... but can also take a different approach and warm them for a whole different take :)
      The sides are great too

    I like to use things like this too if I'm hard pressed for a hot, good meal! I saw the comment on the double deal in the comments above, and that is cool to know too. :)

PowerMat - Review and Giveaway

Image
Please let me go ahead and just say... I think/KNOW that the PowerMat will be one of the HOTTEST items this year! Have you heard of this? I mean, seriously! This is Awesome and I am using that since I can not think of any other way to explain it... (Are there really words that would explain something this cool?!) Okay, let me just cut to the heart of it... The PowerMat is just that... A MAT full of POWER! It is a little bit longer than an average book... Thinner than a cell phone. It looks like a skateboard (in my opinion.) and it charges 3 different technological gadgets at once! Do you know what that means? You NO LONGER need 3 cords, no more messy tangles... Just one cord to plug the mat in and you are done!!!! I was sent the PowerMat for review and I am so very impressed! The PowerMat can charge 3 different items... Marc and I have blackberries... (They can now BOTH charge on here AT THE SAME TIME!) We also have several IPods ... The docking station for the IPod can charge my

Fire Fly Toothbrushes - #giveaway

Image
Is it a hassle to get your younger kids to brush their teeth? Broxton loves it and asks throughout the day if he can go and brush his... Now that he has a new toothbrush!!! We were sent a couple toothbrushes from Fire Fly Toothbrushes and I just love the concept! With Fire Fly, they light up! You just press the button and they light up for a solid minute. What we do here is a little system. First, Broxton brushes his teeth for the first minute. (just a teeny bit of toothpaste) Then, I brush the next minute (once again, minimal toothpaste.) Finally, he gets to brush them a final minute (no toothpaste.) The system is working and his teeth are clean! During the day, when he wants to brush them.. He can, but with no toothpaste. He really just likes the way it lights up. Doesn't hurt that the toothbrush is a hot wheels car!!! He also has one to leave at my parents house.. It is a snoopy one and lights up blue! Talk about a cool item to show the grandparents!!! Not only c

Momma Must Have - Exergen Temporal Thermometer- Review and Giveaway

Image
As we all know, it can sometimes be a bit difficult to take the temperature of a sick child. Hey, some adults are known to be big babies... The longer they have to wait, the fussier they become. Well, with the Exergen Temporal Scanner ... Wait is something that can be eliminated! Why do I say that? Just because the wait is merely 2 seconds! During that time, you will already be finished a gift giveaway blog hop, exergen temporal scanner, mom must have, R nd moving on to something else. I really like the ease of the Exergen Thermometer. It has a soft tip on it that you gently swipe across the forehead of your "patient." There are two things that make this stand out compared to others that I have used. One - If you are sweating, you can place it behind your ear to get your temperature. Two - There is a light on both sides to show you that it is on. I like that, as I sometimes worry if it is on or not... You know how I can be! First, remove the protective cap... Turn it on...
