{giveaway} $15 Walmart Gift Card and Cascade Complete ActionPacs

I made a Blueberry & Peach Cobbler from scratch the other night and left the dirty pan on the counter.  All. Night. Long....  on purpose.  Yes, on purpose.  I know, those who know me probably think I've lost it.  It took willpower not to scrub off all those bluish-purple berries, but I did it - for a purpose.
                                              This was the hardened mess ----->
MyBlogSpark sent me some Cascade Complete All-in-1 ActionPacs (along with the handy dish to bake my cobbler in) and challenged me to see if the ActionPacs' saying: "It powers away 24-hour, stuck-on food so you don’t have to" rang true.

No need to pre-soak, scrub or wash again and again.  I was skeptical for sure!  I mean,  look at that mess. And, it was hardened.  Ick.

I loaded it in the dishwasher the next morning, popped in a Cascade Complete All-in-1 ActionPac and let the little guy do his business.

<------- Look what came out.  Barely any crustiness leftover, and I was sure that blueberry "stuff" would stain it more.  I was so happy to see the Actionpac do so well!

NOTE:  We have very hard water and everything usually comes out spotty and barely clean.  The glasses that were in this load have never been more sparkly.

FIVE Good Deal Gal Readers will each win a sample pack of Cascade Complete All-in-1 ActionPacs and ONE reader will win a $15 Walmart gift card to go buy your own along with anything else your heart desires. :)

{24 hr. giveaway} $50 VISA gift card

In celebration of its 50th birthday, Pampers is recognizing how much parenting has changed over the years, and is sharing their belief that every baby is a little miracle that deserves to be celebrated, supported and protected, by unveiling its Little Miracle Mission campaign – a program that delivers acts of kindness to miracles and their families while encouraging parents to support others.

Pampers recently challenged me to bless new/expectant mothers and babies by sending me a $50 gift card, to which I am stretching with coupons (of course!) and donating diapers, formula, toys, clothing and other second-hand items to a local mission that houses and supports new and expectant mothers.  I am so thrilled with this opportunity and have already gathered many items including a couple of computers!

EVERYONE can easily participate in the Miracles Missions programs and support little miracles across the country, by visiting Pampers Facebook page. Pampers is also asking everyone to pay-it-forward by participating in the first Little Miracle Mission- to congratulate and offer support to an expectant mother with a gift or surprise gesture. Pampers will issue different missions throughout the entire year to celebrate all aspects of parenthood, and with the help of parents, family and friends, they hope to touch the lives of every baby born in the next year.

I love this mission!!



One Good Deal Gal reader will be able to get involved in these random acts of kindness, too, with his or her very own $50 VISA gift card! 

Pampers would like to challenge you to find a way to celebrate, support or protect a new little miracle in your community.  Now what you do with that gift card is entirely up to you, but the challenge will be for you to decide its best use!  Some ideas include using the money to purchase diapers for a family who could use them, using the money to prepare meals for a family, or even using the money to host a larger fundraiser for a family.

{giveaway} New BareMinerals Skincare Line for TWO Winners


Over the past week I have been testing out the new bareMinerals Skincare line powered by their proprietary RareMinerals ActiveSoil Complex. This powerful ingredient, only available from bareMinerals, contains a blend of macro and micro minerals and is clinically proven to deliver faster cell turnover and noticeably smaller pores. Additionally, the RareMinerals ActiveSoil Complex has three times the antioxidant capacity of blueberries!

The  Deep Cleansing Foam (reg. $20) does a great job at cleaning out my pores without making my skin feel dry and tight afterward.  After about a week, I'm starting to notice my pores getting smaller (they tend to be a little larger on the apples of my cheeks).  The Purely Nourishing Moisturizer (reg. $28) has become my new FAVORITE moisturizer -- no kidding!  Usually moisturizers either make my skin too oily/greasy that my makeup just slides off or they barely moisturize...  the Purely Nourishing Moisturizer absorbs quickly and makes my skin dewy (but magically keeps my makeup in place).  I will definitely be buying this again and again.

Although more pricey than I would normally pay for my skincare products, I fell in love with the moisturizer.  I supposed if I had a coupon code I might splurge once in a while. ;)

TWO Lucky Good Deal Gal Readers will each win a set of these fabulous products from bareMinerals!

{giveaway} Febreze Sport for Two Readers

I'm going to lose my Wife-of-the-Year award.  I'm about to throw my Hubs under the bus...

We (and by "we" I mean "My Darling Husband") currently have a gym bag sitting in a nook in our Master bathroom... it's been there for oh, about 8 MONTHS! Stinky soccer clothes are inside... from 8 months ago.  Hubs has no desire to move it and I am not going near it.  In fact, I have contemplated tossing the entire thing out, soccer shoes and all but then I'd have to replace the shoes and, well, I'm too frugal for that.

Truthfully, it doesn't stink that bad... or maybe I'm just used to it.  Nonetheless, I knew when Febreze sent me their new Sport Collection that it was immediately being tested out on "THE" soccer bag.  And the dog's bed.  And certain shoes.  And the laundry baskets.  We've got places to try this out.

Normally air fresheners give me an instant headache.  Febreze Sport had a really light scent (no headache issues) -- in fact, my daughter kept complimenting the rooms that were being refreshed.

The soccer bag still has a few issues, only they aren't entirely with the stench anymore.  When will he learn? *shakes head*

Two Lucky Good Deal Gal Readers will each win 2 bottles of Febreze Sport, courtesy of Febreze and MWKS.

{giveaway/review} Just a Pinch Recipe Club Membership

It's probably no surprise that I love to cook and experiment with new recipes, and my Hubs is more than happy to be my little taste-tester for all my new yummy finds!  Normally,  I scour the Internet (and many, many different sites) to find new recipes and end up comparing recipes, tracking down reviews, etc.

I was really happy to have the opportunity to review an online Recipe Club that I had never heard of before, Just a Pinch!  I immediately loved that I could organize my recipes (submitted by other readers) and even add them to a calendar -- we know how much I love a Weekly Menu plan!

Just a Pinch makes it really easy to find a recipe, print a shopping list and even print coupons!  They offer a FREE membership for everyone but they also offer a Premium membership for $10 for the whole year, which includes an apron, the menu-planning calendar (great for those just starting out!), One-click grocery lists, and  20% off online purchases.

Everyone can go HERE to sign up for a FREE Membership!

{giveaway} 40lbs. of Fresh Chicken for TWO Winners... plus an AMAZING Chicken deal for AZ Residents

You may notice from my Weekly Menu Plans that we eat mainly chicken or fish and we prefer fresh, natural meats.  It can get a little difficult tracking down natural meats without spending more than I planned.  I used to pick up chicken at our local grocery stores when it was on sale ($1.67-$1.77lb) but, to be completely honest, there is something about chicken (any meat for that matter) that is pumped full of water, additives and preservatives that grosses me out... not to mention the hormones and antibiotics.  I shudder to think what all that does inside our bodies.

I was absolutely ecstatic to get an email from Zaycon Foods offering to send us some fresh, natural chicken breasts to try out -- 100% natural chicken with no added hormones, additives or artificial ingredients. Zaycon Foods generously sent over a large cooler of fresh chicken breasts that were gigantic and ready to be prepared.  I quickly divided them up so we could sample them in a variety of ways!

Together with our good friends we sampled the tender chicken breasts and we were ALL pleasantly thrilled with the quality.  It's amazing how fresh and flavorful natural chicken is -- and we all noticed how much "fuller" the breasts were.  This was definitely something that we all wanted to keep in our fridges/freezers!

Well, I am so excited to share with you that Zaycon Foods, a Washington-based company, is coming to Arizona!
Zaycon Foods is bringing Fresh Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts 
to Gilbert and Peoria at $1.49/lb.

I am so stoked that we can all get 100% natural chicken for just $1.49lb.  I have never seen it this low anywhere!!

Zaycon Foods will be holding events at two locations on Saturday, January 22, 2011.  The fresh, natural chicken breasts are sold in 40lb. cases (4-10lb. bags) for just $1.49lb.  

Are you wondering what you'd do with 40 pounds of fresh chicken?  I am planning on separating the chicken into family-size portions (in FoodSaver or Ziploc baggies) with either marinade, seasonings or plain.  I will also baked/boil some to have it shredded and ready-to-go.  The bags all freeze flat, so it really doesn't take up that much room.

This would also be something that you may want split with a family member or friend.  Ask around and bring a friend down to the event to share some chicken. ;)

Do you live near Gilbert or Peoria and want to get in on this great deal?! NOTE:  I live approx. 30-40 min. but a friend and I will make the fun trip for this price!  (By the way, Zaycon Foods also currently offers events in Idaho, Texas, Oklahoma and Washington as well.)

Here are the two locations in Arizona this month:
** Gilbert, AZ
Saturday, January 22, 2011
3:00 pm - 7:00 pm Victory Tabernacle Pentacostal Church
339 S. Lindsay Rd (corner of Lindsay & Mesquite) Gilbert, AZ 85296

** Peoria, AZ
Saturday, January 22, 2011 (I'll be at this one... hope to see you there!)
8:00 am - 12:00 pm Roman Catholic Parish of Saint Charles Borromeo
8615 West Peoria Ave Peoria, AZ 85345
NOTE:  There may be additional locations and products (i.e. natural beef, pork, fish) in the future!!

Zaycon Foods is taking orders through January 15th, so be sure to place your order before then so you don't miss out!

  • Go HERE and Register for an account at Zaycon FoodsWhen registering, please use 'gooddealgal' in the referral field.
  • Log-in to your account and click on "Place Order" for as many 40lb. boxes of fresh chicken as you need.  Remember, it can be frozen for 6-9 months so think aheadZaycon Foods is planning to return within that time as well.
  • You'll be guided to choose your pick-up location: Gilbert or Peoria (see above).
  • Go to your pick-up location on Saturday, January 22nd to get your chicken!  On a side note, the chicken will *probably* be OK on your drive home, but since my drive will be more than 30 min. I am planning on bringing a cooler with ice.
  • Be a good friend and spread the word....Your friends want fresh chicken, too! :)

And, thanks to Zaycon Foods, TWO lucky Good Deal Gal readers will each win a CASE of Fresh, Natural Chicken Breasts (40lb. box containing 4-10lb. bags) to be picked up at either location on Jan. 22nd!  ** If you're not near one of those locations, enter anyway! Zaycon has generously offered a $35 gift card to the grocery store of your choice if you win!

{review/giveaway} Wii Family Game Night 3

Remember when I got my Wii  over a year ago?  Well, we have been having such a great time playing together as a family.  It's been something we all enjoy, but can also be played alone (by myself, my daughter, etc.)

Recently I was given the Wii game:  Hasbro Family Game Night 3 to try out!  We considered it an early Christmas present and began playing right away!  I was immediately excited to play Wii-versions of some of my favorite board games including  Game of Life, Clue, Twister, Mouse Trap and Yahtzee!

Let me tell you,  we had so much fun and were so surprised at how the makers brought these games to the screen!

I was so curious how Twister would play out but it's all about coordination as you watch the beats on the screen then hit the correct buttons that it shows. Although I wish it actually involved moving our bodies (not just our fingers),  it's a lot harder than it sounds!

Life and Mouse Trap were also fun -- definitely allow a lot of time for these... just like Life, the board game, it's long but fun!  Clue was one of my favorite movies growing up, so it naturally become a loved game and the Wii version was very engaging and well-thought out.  We initially played the "quick" version {because we were playing with a 5 year-old}.  One little note, there is a lot of reading involved in all of these games so definitely not something to leave to the smaller kiddos.

My favorite, and the most addicting, was Yahtzee!  I could have played that for hours!

You can purchase Hasbro Family Game Night 3 on Amazon marked down to $36.99 {and eligible for FREE one-day shipping).

{giveaway} $25 Credit to Jasmere

You all know how much I am in LOVE with these daily deal sites!  I really have been able to score some great gifts and hugely discounted items!

The super nice folks at Jasmere sent me a $25 credit to use towards one of their daily deals and I was able to get a really awesome Kids Konserve lunch kit for 55% off (well, free after my credit thanks to Jasmere)!  This was an item that I would have love to have purchase normally but I could never justify the "regular" price.  Since Jasmere was able to offer it at 55% off, it made it a great bargain!
What makes Jasmere different, though, is that they start out with already discounted prices, then as more people buy into the deal the price goes even LOWER!  So, you can actually pay even less!

I was really impressed at how quick and easy the checkout process was on Jasmere -- and I've been following them for some time now and noticed that some of the daily deals have a "stackable" feature, which means you can buy several and use them all in one purchase. 

They have been having some great deals lately, so make sure to sign up for their daily deals!  Once you have signed up for their daily deals and created an account, come back here to enter to win a $25 credit in your Jasmere account!!
