Ever heard of BzzAgent?

I am new to the BzzAgent program but already I am loving it.  As an agent i get products to test and review and then share my opinion with others. (like you)  My first product I sampled was Children's Clariten Chewables.  I have 2 children who suffer from allergies, 1 mild and 1 severe.  I decided to try the Claritin chewables with my 7 year who has mild allergies and we usually only treat when they are bothering him.  I gave them to him when he was getting ready for school so that he wouldnt be stuffy during school.  I was skeptical about them working on a 7 year old but they did. He came home the 2nd day saying he wasnt "sniffing" at school anymore. (=  He is still on them and already I can see a difference.  (He has been taking them for 5 days now.) I really have to say that I am impressed. He even said the flavor was good too. (grape)

Again, I am a BzzAgent and received a sample of Children Claritin Chewables to sample and review. This review is my own honest opinion.  This prodcuts really did work for my son and his allergies.  Feel free to check out the Claritin Facebook Page for info on their products.

Seriously??

It seems as though some people think it is funny to go onto peoples blogs and try to leave comments that have more cuss words in them then i have spoken in my lifetime.  This is why my blog comments arent made public until after i read them. Some people just have to ruin it for everyone else.  This "child" admitted that they were 12 and thought it was funny to cuss all over a post on my blog.  To this i say... "you must make your parents proud".

I had a few things I needed that I knew would be cheaper at Walmart and I was also still looking for the Nivea body wash. So off to Walmart I went with a $20 budget in mind.  I went over a bit but that is because I remembered I needed hot fudge for a pie I am making on Easter  for my husband. So here is what I got and how I did it:

(5) Purex trvl 3n1 detergent sheets @ $0.97 ea - (5) $1 MQ = FREE + $0.15 overage
(1) Bic Advance 3 Razors @ $4.87 - (1) MQ $3 = $1.87

Publix 4/18


$0.65 OOP

I went to Publix in search of the Crackerfuls and Nivea Body Wash and only found the Crackerfuls.  I was lucky I even got the Crackerfuls, the shelves were empty when I got there but there was a very kind lady stocking the crackers and went in back to look for some for me.  I only had 4 coupons so thats all I got. I thien went in search of the Nivea body wash and they were out of it. Not a big deal to me because I have so much body wash from my CVS  deals.  

(4) Ritz Crackerfuls $2.79 ea - (4) $1.50 MQ = FREE + $0.42 OVERAGE
(1) SOBE water $1

Pre Ttl = $6.58

CVS 4/17 $10.58 OOP


$10.58 OOP and earned $2.99 EB's

Not as low as I would have liked, but they were out of some of the Easter candy I was going to get with coupons, so I had to improvise.  I had $5.73 EB's to start with.  Here is what I got and how I did it:

(1) Sweetart Jelly Beans $2.00 - (1) MQ $0.55 = $1.45
(2) M&M speckled eggs $1.97 ea - (1) MQ $2/2 = $1.94
(1) TG Lee Milk $3.19 earned $1 EB

(1) PAAS easter egg kit $1.99 earned $1.99 EB
(1) Monster energy drink = $2.49

(4) Tampa Tribune $1 ea = $4 (they actually had all 4 inserts in them this week)

I had the emailed CVS coupon for $4 off $20 that I used also.

Pre Ttl = $23.72
coupons = -$8.55
EB's used = -$5.73
tax = $1.14
Total = $10.58 got back $2.99 EB's saved 55%

I feel bad about using the coupon for an item that i was missing, but i tried to fix it as soon as i realzied it but they said dont worry about it.  Still makes me feel bad. My limit was $7 but sometimes things dont work out the way I plan and i wanted to finish getting all my Easter goodies so I just went with it.

LOL Im also happy I still have some EB's to go into next week with. (=
