Do you enjoy giving your opinion on new products?  If so, why not get paid for doing it?

One company that I have had much success in completing surveys and product testing for and getting payment promptly has been Pinecone Research. 

They are currently recruiting females ages 18-24 or age 35+.  If interested, click on this link to register since they only recruit by invitation only.

I love finding a great deal on cereal - it's an easy breakfast, stores well with a decent shelf life, and with the right sale and coupon matchup, can be purchased for cheap!

But I often wonder just what exactly I'm trading in nutritionally for that convenience. So recently I've tried to make an effort to choose "healthier" cereals for my family. I thought I was doing so well! Little did I know...

Yahoo! Health and Men's Health Magazine published an article this morning on the best and worst breakfast cereals, ones you might think would be good for you but really aren't. Guess what I found? I'm an offender on almost every count! Here I was so proud of myself for picking up the Raisin Bran cereal instead of the "sugary kid cereals"...WHAT A SHOCK! And I'm a big proponent of reading the nutrition labels, and I STILL missed this one!

To see what they found, check out the full article HERE. Looks like I have a lot more studying to do... ;)

Did you get the great Bounce Dryer coupon from Vocalpoint last month? I ended up getting my Bounce Dryer bar for just over $1. After using mine for a month I thought I would give you a product review.

What I Liked:

• I don't have to remember to put a dryer sheet in every time I dry clothes
• It smells really nice and the clothes have a good scent, not too strong either
• Directions were very easy to follow
• Design is simple and sleek

What I Didn't Like:

• It is wearing out quicker than I thought it would. I know it wears out faster the more it's used but I still hoped it would last at least 2 months. It will wear out soon and I have used it barely a month.
• Static cling is still there. That's one thing I loved about dryer sheets. They soften AND take care of static cling.
• It's more spendy than dryer sheets
  

Even though I did like it, I think I will stick to dryer sheets from now on. The static is driving me crazy!

If you tried the new Bounce Dryer bar, what did you think?
