Sponsored Post: American Family Insurance Stand Up For Family

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of American Family Insurance for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

American Family Insurance is running a new campaign that I thought was pretty cool. It's called Stand Up For Family. They hosted a Stand Up For Family comedy night with some hilarious family-friendly comedians like Bill Bellamy, Rodney Perry, Mark Viera, Tony Roberts and Donnell Rawlings.

They've got some funny videos clips from the show on their website that are all family-friendly and remind me of funny things that happened in my family life when I was young!  My favorite videos were the Street Lights and Mama Talk videos. So funny!

I remember having that "mama talk" from my mother before going into sometone else's home. If looks could kill, hers definitely could have when she warned us about jumping & running and acting like monkeys in someone else's home. She definitely scared manners into us before situations just like that! That movie definitely brought back funny memories.

I love that this is stand up comedy the whole family can enjoy. It's hard to find family-friendly fun with good moral values these days. I applaud AmFam for sticking with their family ideals and creating something fun we can all enjoy.

BzzAgent Mini Giveaways (Lots of winners!)

I've been able to try a TON of fun new products from BzzAgent over the last few weeks! I've got some fun coupons & info to share with you.

Over the last few weeks I've been trying out the new Full Volume Fekkai line of shampoo and conditioner by Frederic Fekkai. It's now sold in drugstores and superstores (!) so it's more affordable than ever. I have actually loved how my hair feels and looks when I use this shampoo. It's very lightweight which is important for my shampoo, and it smells fantastic.

I also got to try out the Fekkai Glossing Cream, which is a styler that helps eliminate frizz and add moisture & shine to your hair, as well as the Technician Color Care shampoo & mask.

Win it!
I've got samples of Glossing Cream (2 winners) and Technician Color Care shampoo & mask (1 winner) to give away.


I've also been able to take part in a Purell campaign. I was sent a 4-pack of the jelly wrap carriers to try out & give away. They are so handy! I've attached one to my purse and I use it all the time to sanitize my hands while I'm out and about. My favorite place to use it? The gas station! I can't help but feel like my hands have got to be filthy after I pump gas into my car. These are so great to have around and they give me definite peace of mind. (And what mom couldn't use more sanitizer around when she's got a toddler, right?)

I gave one of my jelly wraps to my friend down the street (who I've talked about before). Her little 11 month old just finished up chemo in his battle with leukemia and is now home in remission. Her house is definitely not sterile like the hospital was, and real life can be messy. She's been trying really hard to keep everything and everyone in their family as clean & healthy as possible, so she popped one of these jelly wraps on her purse, too!

When I was at Target the other day, I noticed they sell the Purell jelly wraps in a set of one wrap plus six little insert bottles for $2.99! Use a $1 off coupon and that's a steal for getting clean hands on the go. (And I have a feeling you could refill the little bottle in your jelly wrap by pouring some from a bigger bottle into it.)

Win it!
I've got a jelly wrap bottle of sanitizer (2 winners) and some $1 off Purell manufacturer's coupons with no expiration date (3 winners)!


To enter, leave your email address below and state which item you'd like to win. You can leave one comment for Fekkai and one for Purell if you'd like.


Disclaimer: I received the above stated products from BzzAgent. All opinions are my own. Contest closes 11/23/11 at midnight MST.

Amazon Black Friday Deals Start Now!

Amazon begins their countdown to Black Friday with deals starting today! There are already some great deals happening.

This morning I purchased the Blu Ray/DVD/Digital copy of Despicable Me for $10.98. That's a good $20 cheaper than Costco! I plan to put it in the Bambina's stocking.

I also found some Crayola Color Wonder sets for between 40% and 50% off. I bought a Disney Princess Pad for The Bambina for Christmas. (We're bigtime into the Princess phase right now!)


If you've got a Black Friday list of needs this year, make sure to check Amazon first! They often have comparable or cheaper prices, and the free shipping and no tax is a big perk.

One of the children in our Sub For Santa family this year wanted some Harry Potter Legos. I scoured the early Black Friday ads and found that the cheapest store was going to have the Harry Potter Knight Bus for $29.99. When I looked it up on Amazon for comparison, I discovered Amazon had it for $26 right now! So I saved $4 + tax and don't have to wake up early for that one. :) Score!

I also found Rockstar Mickey is the same price right now on Amazon that it will be on Black Friday at multiple stores. It was on my mother-in-law's list for one of her grandbabies, so I saved her some sleep on Friday too!


A few other noteworthy Amazon diaper deals (when you subscribe & save & clip coupon):

• Huggies Snug & Dry Diapers Size 2, 92 ct - $13.63 ($0.14/diaper)
• Huggies Snug & Dry Diapers Size 3, 156 ct - $23.80 ($0.15/diaper)
• Pampers Baby Dry Diapers Size 1, 276 ct - $35.75 ($0.13/diaper)
• Pampers Baby Dry Diapers Size 3, 222 ct - $35.75 ($0.16/diaper)

Free Baby Clothes @ Vente-Privee

Vente-Privee is a members-only shopping site (like Zulily or Totsy) that features new sales every day. This site is affiliated with American Express, and right now they're offering a $20 statement credit when you make any purchase on their site with an Amex before 12/31/11!

Their Agatha Luiz De La Prada sale right now has super cute baby clothes & accessories sized 0-24 months. Most of them are under $20, so free after your credit even with the $5.95 shipping! Just aim for something in the $14-ish range to get it free.

One thing I noticed that I like about this site more than Totsy & Zulily is that most of their inventory ships the same day, rather than in 2-4 weeks like Zulily & Totsy!
