Graze Special Codes For New Members Only

I received some free graze codes added in with one of my orders from Amazon & I thought I'd share them on here for anyone who hasn't yet tried a graze box.

Graze have lots of different box types to choose from and there is also a section where you can choose what you would like to receive and what you wouldn't want to try. Once signed up you can also edit your dietary preferences to suit you which is really handy. They send nutritious snack boxes by post and you can even start a subscription if you like the boxes. 

The codes I have are to try a free box. You could either use them yourself or share them with a friend. 

Here are the codes: 



Two other codes I have are:
PALXVG5
YOUXVG5

I already signed up to Graze ages ago, so cannot redeem these as I'm not a new member. 

If you make use of these codes, I hope you enjoy your free graze box!


Amazon Order Arrived! - Amie Products.

After being unable to find my cleanser and toner, I decided it was time to buy a new one. Not entirely sure how it managed to vanish as its not exactly a tiny bottle but no doubt it will turn up at some point.

I noticed amazon did Amie 2-in-1 Petal Perfect Cleanser and Toner 200 ml for £4.95 free postage if you spend £10 or more, so I decided to try out two other Amie products. 



My order came to £14.85 for all 3 items & was actually meant to be here yesterday as they attempted to deliver but I didn't hear them chap the door so I only received it today. Considering I placed the order on the 13th and I received it on the 18th which is pretty fast. I got myself Amie Radiant Dawn Exfoliating Face Wash 150 ml and Amie Morning Light Hydrating Daily Moisturiser 100 ml as well as the cleanser and toner mentioned previously. 
          


 I decided to try the Exfoliating Daily Wash followed by the Hydrating Daily Moisturiser and then my skin felt nice and clean but also soft. I had a bit of dry skin near my nose and that doesn't seem as bad anymore. Not bad from one use of each product. I need to get back to cleansing my face more and using moisturisers then hopefully it will take care of any skin problems. I have really sensitive skin, to the point that a lot of products that say suitable for sensitive skin still make me break out.. So I now prefer to buy natural products as they seem to be better for me. 


Overall really pleased. I cant wait to get back to using the cleanser and toner but lets hope this one doesnt vanish like the other one!! Can't complain at all for the price of each one with them being natural products. All of the above are suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

Recent Items Swapped On Swapit - 29/7/2014

Since last friday, 12 of my items have been won on SwapIt for swap points. These swap points I will use to get me some new stuff. At the moment I have a few things I'm watching and already have plenty of points to spend on stuff so I'm hoping to see more new stuff pop up on site soon.

These items in total will get me another 17860 points which i hope to spend on some really good stuff! Its a good site for getting rid of stuff you don't want for new stuff. 

The 12 items that have recently been won are: 

Cooking Mama DS Game

Skull Iron On Patch

Peacock Earrings

Wooden Charm Earrings

Pack Of Approx 1000 Seed Beads

Elasticated Bracelet

Courgette Black Beauty Seeds

Harry Potter & The Chamber Of Secrets GBA Game

DOOM GBA Game

Iphone 4 Screen Protector

Snowflake Earrings

Collagen Crystal Eyelid Patch

As you can see, it is mostly smaller stuff. I keep things small due to postage being awfully high now. 

I parcel things individually, put their swap number and my member number on them and then add stamps to each parcel to then put into a bigger parcel to send directly to SwapIt which means no exchanging addresses with other people and they forward on the items for you. 

Kids & Teens can play games, watch small videos, enter in swapit codes, swap stuff and do lots more to gain points.

Box of Awesome - I Was Selected!

Yesterday, I received an email saying I had been selected to claim a free Box of Awesome and to claim within 48 hours so I did. Now one has been secured and I got an email saying it is on its way to my door!

Now I'll be honest, I have never had one before but I was curious to see what they were like. In the end, if it is free you really cannot complain.

They seem like a fantastic idea for kids. I originally went on the Box of OMG! and signed up on there, and put on my profile that I wanted to receive either Box of OMG! or Box of AWESOME!

You can gain points to secure a box by collecting codes from previous boxes that work, liking Box of Awesome , tweeting about them , posting unboxing videos and also recruiting friends. 

For more information about Box of OMG!:

For more information about Box of AWESOME!:

If you want to be kind enough to let me refer you by email so I get extra points, please let me know your email address. 

As far as I'm aware, you also get small point codes for SwapIt in some of the boxes, or all.. I'm not sure but I use that website so the code will get used.

Swap it site update.. My Opinion

For anyone who read my previous post, you will see I mentioned I recently joined a site called SwapIt. The site is mainly aimed at teens or younger but even though I am 23, I'm still a bit of a kid myself so I got curious.

I usually swap on Swapz.co.uk, although I do have a lot of items younger kids - teens would like.. like nail art sheets, hair accessories, body jewellery & other jewellery pieces, cheaper makeup brands, stickers & more. So I thought, why not try swapit?  Instead of swapping for other items you trade for points, then you trade your points for other items that take your interest. So far I've only added smaller items and 4 have already gone that I will be posting tomorrow. You do not need to exchange addresses, you send to SwapIt directly with extra postage stamps included with the parcels so that they can forward them on to the winners of the items.

These are the items I have to post already : 






I plan on adding more throughout today, although I already have 42 items listed. Quite a few have already got bids with points. So far, it seems really good. I've seen a few things I'd be interested in so I'm hoping people keep adding more I would get either for me, my partner or someone else.

Swap Stuff.. Get Stuff .. SwapIt.co.uk

I came across a website Swapit.co.uk and thought I'd give it a go. It's got a lot of kids stuff and other stuff too like movies and games. I'm currently adding some stuff  to swap to see how things go. I've seen users on their with 1000+ ratings so things look positive.

I'll start off with smaller stuff to put up and see where things go from there. 

Some things I have added so far:








I thought if it is mainly based towards younger people then I may as well only add stuff that they would possibly like. Hopefully once my points build up I can use them to get me some family / kids dvds as I love disney / pixar movies etc! I'd also be interested in anything crafty on there and possibly get my girlfriend a few teddies as she seems to love them. So fingers crossed it turns out well!

No Giveaway...

Due to no-one making choices of their favourite bracelet and posting in comments and no new followers, I decided to hold back the giveaway for now as I don't want just one or two entries.

Since things are a bit hectic for me at the moment, I may wait until things settle down and I get back to blogging properly before I decide to hold giveaways again. 

I do however, have plenty of stuff to giveaway just not much to blog about just now. 

Will do my best to add up some blog posts though. I have just bought stuff to make beeswax candles so will see how that turns out when I first try and I will be sure to blog it!

Choose a bracelet for giveaway prize

So I decided to give people the chance to pick a bracelet for the giveaway rather than choosing one myself. I randomly picked 5 bracelets for you all to choose from. 
 
Please let me know in a comment below, which you would like to win and I will put the most popular choice up for giveaway at the weekend! 

Rules for the giveaway will be: 
1. Must be UK Entrants
2. Must follow my blog. 
Pretty simple really.
  

Bracelet number 1:

   Bracelet number 2:
 
Bracelet number 3: 
 
 Bracelet number 4:
 
Bracelet number 5:
  
 All of these bracelets fit approx 7 inch which I class as the average/most common wrist size going by a jewellery making journal I use. 

They could also fit smaller sizes as loose fit

 

Someone ate my pringles!!

Has anyone else noticed the amount of air rather than crisps in packs / tubs of crisps nowadays? And not just Pringles.. A lot of brands.

It's getting ridiculous. When you open a packet of crisps what you don't want to see is 3/4 air and 1/4 crisps. 

I'll be honest, Pringles I recently bought weren't 3/4 air and 1/4 crisps but it did still look like someone had had a munch at my crisps before me and then sealed it after they ate some. 

However, I posted on their Facebook page as I think its quite ridiculous paying £2.50 or something for a tub when they aren't on offer to find them nearly half empty.. But this isn't the first brand of crisps I've had to complain to about a lot of missing crisps.


Lets hope I get a good response from them and this doesn't happen again.
 
Has anyone else had similar experiences with different brands of crisps ?
