REVIEW: Oliver’s Labels

by April on November 8, 2010

I got the chance to review a product called Oliver’s Labels over the last couple weeks. I know the parents that read my blog will love this item!

Oliver’s Labels is a company that was started by Debbie with inspiration from her nephew Oliver who kept losing his shoes.

I have had a clothing label inside Trey’s winter coat for the last couple weeks, and even after being washed and dried the sticker still remains in the same condition as the day I placed it in his coat.

He has some in a pair of his shoes, a couple toys,and cups as well, and they all are still there, and still look brand new.

If you have a kiddo that manages to lose things a lot, the Found-It tracking system would be a miracle for you. Not only does it help you find your product again, but with the tracking code instead of a phone number or address, it keeps your childs personal info safe! I loved this part! I don’t want a stranger to find my sons shoe and learn our phone number or home address! Plus, the best part is, it’s completely free to get this feature added to your labels.

Oliver’s Labels have many different labels as well. They have:

Waterproof Labels

Original Labels
Mini Labels
Shoe Labels
Photo Labels

Clothing Labels

Iron-on Clothing Labels
Stick-eez™ Clothing Labels

Safety Bands

Safety Wristbands

Bag Tags

Large Bag Tags
Mini Bag Tags

Household Labels

Kosher Kitchen Labels

Gift-Giving

Gift Card

The designs that you can chose from are adorable too! They also have No Nuts, No Dairy, and so on, so that if your child is going to a daycare, camp, school, you can have relief in knowing that they are safe.

I’m sure these labels would be a teachers best friend, so they don’t have to worry about who’s is who’s! I know they are a big hit in my household already!

You can get free shipping on any order $30 or more too! And they offer gift cards, so that would make a great holiday gift!

GIVEAWAY: Fashionably Frugal Savvycents Wallet Review & Giveaway!

by April on November 5, 2010

Savvycents for the fashionably frugal!

Thanks to Melinda Claudepierre, I was able to review this wonderful Savvycents wallet!

Savvycents was first formed in January of 2009 after Melinda Claudpierre read a book about becoming debt free and following the cash envelope system of budgeting.

Melinda was frustrated with paper envelopes and disorganization with her wallet, she wanted to create a wallet that would allow her to keep her cash in separate categories and also give quick access to her drivers license, coin holder, and all of her discount cards and coupons. The Savvycents wallet allows you to have all these thing in an attractive wallet that every woman would love to carry.

Savvycents Wallet for use with the envelope budgeting system

I was completely surprised when my wallet arrived at how beautiful it truly is! I got the pink one and it’s so bright and shiny!

This wallet not only allows you to use it as a cash budgeting system with its accordian style file system, but you can also use it to keep coupons int! It comes with dividers and labels to keep the sections separate. Some of us hardcore couponers obviously can’t keep all of our coupons in there, but I’ve been using it for my restaurant coupons, gift cards and things like that. There’s also a handy snap closure on the accordion file that helps keep your coupons or money in place. Or for a quick trip to the store when you don’t have time to bring your entire binder.

Savvycents Budgeting Wallet

The wallet has 6 pockets for debit/credit cards, a spot for your driver’s license and a picture, and also your checkbook, and a pen. Plus the back has a coin slot. The wallet measures 8”x4”.It’s available in black, red or pink patent leather, and you can tell it was designed by a woman for women, because of its great style and function combo!

For purchasing info, go here. This would make a great Christmas gift for a frugal person in your life!
