Get An Awesome VISA Debit Card at Card.com

The Walking Dead Themed VISA Debit Cards from Cards.com
Tough choice... these are all awesome!
Hey there. How many of you have a debit or credit card? Just about all of you, right. And I bet it's a standard bank issued card, right? Just the same old standard bank design. If you're lucky, the banks offer debit and credit cards in different colors but that's IF you're lucky. If you're anything like me, you like to express yourself.  Whether it be through the music I listen to, the clothes that I wear, or the tattoos that I sport.  Whatever it is, I want it to show my personality.  So why not do the same with your debit/credit card?  Well guess what?  I DID!  Our good friends at Card.com walked me through the process of getting a a VISA debit card that screams me.  Just look at the some of the card options above.

Amazon Introduces the Kindle Fire HDX

The new Kindle Fire HDX starting at $229!
Hey there.  I currently own a Kindle Fire HD.  I love the damn thing.  It's constantly being used at home.  Either by my wife, the kids, or myself.  Someone always wants to use it.  And why not?  It's great for web browsing, videos look awesome, and because it's powered by Android, you get a whole slew of apps to browse through.  I really thought that the Kindle Fire HD would be the tablet to take over the tablet market... but now, a new tablet has been announced.  It's faster, lasts longer, and it's has an even better display.  And no... it's not from Apple or Samsung or ASUS or Google... it's from Amazon themselves.  They've improved the Kindle Fire HD and have created the Kindle Fire HDX!

The AVEENO Men's Collection for a Wonderful, Close Shave

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Dad Central Consulting for AVEENO. I received product samples and a promotional item as a thank you for participating.
Hey there.  I have a love/hate relationship with shaving.  I love that I can snuggle close to my wife after a good, close shave, but I hate the nicks, cuts, and razor burn that sometimes comes with shaving.   I wouldn't say that I have sensitive skin, but if I go about a week without shaving, I can almost guarantee myself that my shaving experience won't be a good one.  Sometimes, it would get to a point where I would try to avoid shaving!  lol  But as most men would tell you, going that long without shaving will leave your face very prickly and snuggle time with the wife will go down to zero... Nobody wants thier face scratched by stubble!  I've tried to switch up my razor and that didn't help.  I even switched from shaving gel to foam to back again.  I just couldn't find a good enough product that will leave my skin feeling good and provided me with a close, comfortable shave.  That is, until I was introduced to the AVEENO Men's Collection.  Our good friends at AVEENO and Dad's Central provided me with a set of the AVEENO Men's Collection, which consisted of a face wash, shaving gel, and aftershave.  After more than a few shaving sessions, I'm ready to give my thoughts and insights on the AVEENO Men's Collection.  Let's get to it.

Couponing Online Saves the Family Budget

Like everyone else, I keep hearing that the economy is getting better. Unfortunately, no one has told my bank account the good news. Things are still tight for me and for most of my friends, so we were all thrilled when I discovered SelectAware.com online.

A Trip to Aruba Would Be Perfect for Our HoneyMoon

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Aruba Tourism Authority for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
I love the scenic views that Aruba has to offer!
Hey there.  I owe my wife a honeymoon getaway.  When we got married, we both worked but we didn't make to much money.  I couldn't afford to get her the wedding ring that she deserved, I couldn't get her the lavish wedding ceremony that she deserved, and I couldn't get her the honeymoon getaway that she deserved.  Next year, it will be our 10 year anniversary and I plan on making up for some of those things.  We're better off financialy, now, than we were before and we are we plan to renew our vows and have a wedding ceremony with friends and family.  I also want to plan that honeymoon trip that we didn't get to enjoy the first time around.  We orignally had our heart set on a Hawaiian honeymoon but a trip to Aruba sounds pretty tempting right now!

Whiteflash Jewelry is Perfect for Anniversary Gifts

Hey there.  Next year, the wife and I will be celebrating our 10 year anniversary.  Yup.  10 blissful years.  We plan on renewing our vows and hope to have a wedding where all of our friends and family can attend.  Our last wedding was pretty small and we would like to have a pretty big party this time around.  Anyways, 10 years is a pretty big milestone.  That's a whole decade!  Aside from renewing our vows, I would like to get my wife the gift of diamonds.  I don't think I'll opt to get a bigger ring, since I think she already has a pretty big ring, but I am thinking of getting her a diamond pendant or some diamond studs.  I don't want to get just any diamonds, though.  I want to get top quality diamonds.  Something I know is special and will WOW her.  I need some Whiteflash contact diamonds!  Or I should say, CONFLICT FREE diamonds!

Save Over 10% on ZigReetrek TR Shoes Now

The wife and I stop for a pic while hiking
Hey there.  The wife and I recently took up hiking as a means to get fit outside of the gym.  We've gone to the Turnbull Canyon Hiking trails on more than a few occasions and it's something that we simply love.  The one thing that we don't love?  Our footing.  We both have "sports" shoes that we wear when we go hiking but we don't have as great traction when climbing up those steep hills.  The last thing we want is to lose our footing and come tumbling down.  That's why we've started looking for proper outdoor running shoes and the Reebok ZigReetrek TR running shoes seem to the ones that are right up our alley.

Looking for Cheap Auto Insurance

Hey there.  You've all seen the commercials for auto insurance.  Some of them are funny and others are pretty straight forward and to the point.  I have a friend that used to work in the auto insurance field and she would give it to me straight.  What was the best coverage for the lowest price.  Easy and simple.  She no longer works in that field and I found myself needing to find a new auto insurance policy when I noticed that my monthly premium was slowly increasing.  I don't know if maybe the policies of said company changed or what, but when your payments jump from $50 to $75, there was time for a change.  It would have been great if I would have been able to find cheap auto insurance quotes all in a single spot as opposed to jumping all over the place.

ECigaretteReviewed.com for the Best and Unbiased Reviews of Electronic Cigarettes (E Cigs)


Hey there.  Smoking is bad habit.  Personally, I do not smoke.  I've always thought it was a bad habit and something that I didn't need in my life.  But you know what...  it is in my life.  Many of my friends and family members smoke.  They made a decision some point in their lives to take up smoking and now they are addicted to the nicotine in cigarettes.  Just like drinking, smoking is socially acceptable and many people take up smoking socially.  But what if you are addicted?  What if you really are not choosing to smoke because your addiction to nicotine and tobacco is tough to break?  I've seen it first hand.  I've seen more than a few family members try to quit, but they just couldn't break the habit.  They tried the patches and they tried the chewing gums but they just don't seem to work.  If this sounds familiar to you, then maybe you might want to consider Electronic cigarettes (E Cigs).  Not only are they better for those around those who smoke, they may also be the key to breaking the habit.

Fuel Your Body with SWAT Fuel

Hey there.  Many of us are familiar with the Call of Duty franchise.  Most specifically the Black Ops series.  As I was playing the game last night, I got to thinking to type of training that the men and women go through to be able handle the special operations that are similar to those in the game.  What makes them "Black Ops" ready?  What fuels their body?  I looked online and found the answer! Dan Olesnicky, M.D., is a S.W.A.T. team physician and police officer in Palm Springs, California, and has been training S.W.A.T. and Spec Ops for over a decade.  And guess what, he's the founder of SWAT Fuel!
