GIVEAWAY! Celebrate the launch of MiHylands.com with these great health products

Hola everyone!

I have a wonderful giveaway I am very excited tell you about!

My family has regularly used Hyland's natural health care products for many, many years. So when the company contacted me to let me review and GIVEAWAY some products to celebrate the launch of their new SPANISH website, www.MiHylands.com, I didn't hesitate to accept.

Some of my favorite Hyland's products are included in this basket!

I've used Calm's Forte for YEARS, it's particularly helpful for those times when you just can't settle down to sleep. 

If you follow my Youtube channel, you know I was VERY sick during winter and spring! My doctor recommended taking trace minerals to help my body recover from all that ick. Hyland's Bioplasma was just the ticket-I feel so much better!

My tween has been experiencing painful growing pains that have been interrupting her sleep. She says that the Hyland's Leg Cramps tablets were super effective and fast acting.

GIVEAWAY TIME! Here's your chance to score some wonderful Hyland's products to try.

GIVEAWAY includes:

Calm's Forte: 100 CT

Nerve Tonic: 100 CT

Arnica 30X: 50CT

Muscle Therapy Gel: 3oz

Bioplasma: 500CT

Bioplasma Sport: 12pk

Leg Cramps: 50CT

Restful Legs: 50CT

Leg Cramps PM

RETAIL VALUE: $92.61

To win, submit your entries via Rafflecopter below. And don't forget to visit Mi Hylands on Facebook at Facebook.com/mihylands for more great product info! Winner will be selected at random via Rafflecopter on June 29. Continental US only, thanks!

My New Favorite Shampoo! #Giveaway #ETYY #llblog

Hi everyone!

Can you believe it's almost October? Can someone please tell Mother Nature that she can turn down the heat here in Socal, already? The great thing about this time of year is that I always get plenty of GIVEAWAYS to share with all of you and today is no different!

As many of you know, I am a SERIOUS couponer. That means I generally have NO brand loyalty and love to try new products all the time. Sometimes, though, I must admit this "cowgirl" approach to shopping comes back to bite me. Case in point: shampoo.

Aveeno Review and GIVEAWAY! #ETYY #LLBLOG

Hola everyone!

How's the summer treating you so far? We are having a great one here in San Diego. I've always loved summer, but when my husband and I were first married and living in northern New Jersey, summer was always a really difficult time for him. Why? Well, my hubs has extremely sensitive skin and every summer he would get poison ivy! It grew everywhere in our neighborhood of West New York (yes, we lived in "West New York, New Jersey").

GIVEAWAY! A Summer Dress from Ross Dress for Less!

YAY! Summer's here! I'm already making my 4th of July plans, which actually start (for my family) on the 3rd with our "Dependence Day" Party! But what to wear? WHAT? If only there were someplace with perfect summer dresses at amazing prices-oh wait, there is! ROSS!

That's right, the good people of Ross Dress for less issued me another fashion challenge: this time, to find a great dress for the 4th for $25 or less. This one was SUPER fun because my local Ross had TONS of dresses that I liked, like this one...

#GIVEAWAY! Who's excited about saving at Dollar General? #DGLatino

If you heard my podcast about couponing a while back, you know that this mom LOVES to save!

I enjoy a champagne lifestyle on a beer budget!

Back when I lived on the east coast, one of my FAVORITE places to save was DOLLAR GENERAL! As a mom who loves to save and with couponing being all the rage these days, I'm always surprised that more people don't explore their local "dollar store" - there are so many brilliant bargains there!

#LALLBLOG Giveaway! And the winner is...

"Allergic to Vanilla!" CONGRATULATIONS! I can't wait to meet you in Los Angeles at the end of the month! SEE YOU at the Latina Lifestyle Bloggers Conference in LA!

Congratulations! LOVE this outfit!

For those of you still interested in joining us in Los Angeles April 26-28, please follow the LALLBLOG Conference Event on Facebook.

And stay tuned-I'll be announcing the winner of the Ross Dress for Less giveaway later today!
