Shore to Please Giveaway Event: Cocktail Rx

Now nothing reminds me of the beach or the summer as much as a nice refreshing cocktail. Sitting at a deck, over-looking the water, sipping a nice cool drink... I love my margaritas...and cosmos...and appletinis and lemon drops! 

Well, I stumbled across Cocktail Rx the other day and am very excited that I have.  Cocktail Rx Shakers are already filled with the cocktail mix-you just add water, vodka, and then mix. 

I received for review a package of 3 different types of cocktail mixers- Cosmo, Appletini, and Lemon Drop flavors.

I love how the shakers are reusable and come with the mix. I've bought mixers to BBQs before as hostess gifts only to find out that the host didn't have a shaker. Or I've brought drinks with me on a girls getaway or bachelorette party and then had to mix drinks in a red solo cup. 

Now as for the taste, I was impressed by how good these mixers were.  My friends and I tested them out. Just as good as your local bar. Each shaker is enough for 8 drinks so one shaker goes a long way.  

Why we're bringing Cocktail RX to the beach: With a built-in shaker, we can have drinks anywhere.

Giveaway Event: $15 Cash for Zazzle

Time for Christmas cards! Whether you want cards for your first Christmas together as newlyweds,     baby's first Christmas, or just because it's Christmas, I have found the shop for you-Zazzle.com

I've been selling on Zazzle for years now and love it! The customer service has been top-notch-every order has been shipped fast and I haven't had a problem. Best of all, you can customize practically everything-add your own photos, change the fonts, whatever!

I am loving the variety of the Christmas cards that Zazzle has.  Since designers can create their own cards and sell them on Zazzle, you get a much bigger variety of cards.  Looking for a fancier family newsletter? A nautical themed Christmas card? Yep, Zazzle has it.

This one to the right is so perfect for families-very modern and fresh. Finding modern Christmas cards can be tough but this one is trendy enough.

Or this classic one for baby's first Christmas-love the simplicity and the colors here.   The best part here is the cost-these professional cards cost just 62 cents per card when you buy 50.




Or this stylish Christmas card. Loving the colors on this too! The biggest decision is narrowing the choices down!

Don't forget about the other Christmas cards you give out too. For just a few bucks, you can create a completely customized card that lets others know you care-and is so much more personal than something from Hallmark.  Here's one for your sister who can't get enough of yoga.  A zombie gingerbread card for your husband who is way too into The Walking Dead.  Festivus cards for the Seinfeld fans.  For your cousins who spend the holiday in Hawaii-lucky!

And of course Zazzle has a bunch of other personalized gifts that are great for Christmas too! I love to give out coffee mugs or  funny T-shirts.  And for kids, I love buying personalized Cookies for Santa plates.   So much to choose from!

 

Now...we are going to give you $15 to spend on Zazzle this season! Why? Because we're thankful that you read our blog!  Please note that Zazzle is not a sponsor of this contest.  To enter, please complete the Rafflecopter form below.  This giveaway is listed on contestgirl.com.

Shore to Please Giveaway Event: SeaSnax

Okay, I'll readily admit to one of my vices-I'm a snacker. I could snack all-day so I'm always on the lookout for healthy snacks.

Luckily I stumbled upon SeaSnax. What is SeaSnax? SeaSnax is a Non-GMO Project Verified roasted seaweed snack which is vegan, gluten-free, and made using 100% olive oil and just a pinch of sea salt - just three all natural ingredients! There are no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives and since SeaSnax is made from seaweed it is high in vitamins (B1, B6, C), vegetable protein, fiber, iron and other minerals and trace elements necessary to maintain good health. Best of all, SeaSnax is a low fat, cholesterol and sugar free.

SeaSnax are available in Classic (olive oil and sea salt), Toasty Onion, Wasabi & Spicy Chipotle! They come in Grab & Go Packs which are great for snacks. The Singles can be used to make sushi, add to soup, etc. 

I was intrigued. I had never had seaweed before and was unsure of the taste. I won't lie-it does taste like seaweed. At first I was expecting more if a potato-chip flavor and texture. However, like their website claims the taste is strangely addictive and this is very true.  Everyone who tried it-and our group had very varied tasters-ended up liking it.

The Spicy Chipotle flavor is very spicy and hot.  Classic was a little bland for me but I loved Wasabi and Toasty Onion.

The only downside I can see is that it does look like seaweed. This meant that my picky 4 year-old niece wouldn't even try it. 

To buy: Want to try SeaSnax? Grab and go packs are just $8.95 and the Seasnax Singles are just $3.99 You can find local retailers that carry SeaSnax here.  

Now...SeaSnax has generously offered to provide one winner with a case of the Grab n Go's or 4 packs of their full sheet singles in any flavor.  To enter, please complete the Rafflecopter form below.  This giveaway is listed on contestgirl.com and prizey.net

Shore to Please Giveaway Event: FoldFlops

We've all been there.  You've been out all night and the stilettos that were looking so cute before are now killing your feet. Or you're getting a pedicure and realize that your only options are your expensive, not so comfortable sandals or the flimsy dollar flip-flops. 

Well the solution is here-FoldFlops. FoldFlops are sandals that are fold-able. 
 FoldFlops fold in half easily so that they can be stored in their own carrying pouch.
Stick them in your purse to change half-way through the night or to wear them apres-pedicure.  

I was sent a pair of FoldFlops in black to review. You can buy them in black, red, champagne, blue, or pink for women or black or champagne for men.  They're available in sizes 5-6, 7-8, 9-10, or 11-12. 

First, I was very impressed with the quality of the shoe. Since they were foldable I worried that they would feel more like disposable shoes. Instead, I was surprised to see how durable they were.  These are better than many of my other pairs of flip-flops.  Thanks to another sandal mishap, I had to wear these for six hours one night-they were super comfortable!

FoldFlops are custom molded with high quality EVA construction that the website states make them perfect for continued wear. The shoes have a porous edged topsole to resist dirt and sweat, a ridged outsole to minimize slip, and a cushioned inset to maximize foot and arch support provide high-level comfort. Foldflops are waterproof and UV resistant.

These are a perfect addition to your gym bag or purse.  Now, anytime you need a pair of sandals you have one.

To buy: Go to Foldflops.com. They're just $20 each.

Shore to Please Giveway Event: Sand Gone

Okay I love, love, love the beach except for one thing: sand.  No matter what I do, for weeks after my last beach trip I will find sand on me. And day trips are the worst-sand gets all over the car and makes the ride home uncomfortable.

Luckily a product has been invented to alleviate our problems.  Sand Gone is a dry body powder that, when applied to sand covered skin, removes the sand without irritating the skin. The powder is non-toxic and non-talc and contains just a hint of coconut fragrance.

Sand Gone comes in a large 8 oz container with a powder puff. To remove sand, you apply the powder with the puff to whatever body part you're trying to remove the sand from. The large container means that one container will easily last the entire summer.

I was lucky enough to receive one to try out. I did try it out because in the winter and spring months I still love to walk along the beach. This removed the sand easily. (Luckily too since there weren't any facilities to wash off either.) This would also come in handy at sandboxes during the year.

This is one of those products that you would probably never seek out but that once you have you wonder how you ever lived without it.

To buy: If you're interested in buying Sand Gone please go to to the website Sandgone.com. Each container is just $12.95.

Now...Sand Gone has generously offered to provide one winner with a container of Sand Gone. To enter, please complete the Rafflecopter form below.  This giveaway is listed on contestgirl.com.

Shore to Please Giveaway Event: Go Cocktails Prize Pack

Now nothing reminds me of the beach or the summer as much as a nice refreshing cocktail. Sitting at a deck, over-looking the water, sipping a nice cool drink... I love my margaritas...and cosmos...and appletinis and lemon drops!  Of course, during swimsuit season I can't indulge as often as I would like because the calories in an average cocktail would mean my swimsuit wouldn't look quite as good.

Well, Go Cocktails has solved this problem.  Each of their cocktail mixers is just 5 calories! That's not a typo-not 50 calories, not 150 calories-just 5 calories each!

I received for review a package of 4 different types of cocktail mixers-Margarita, Cosmo, Appletini, and Lemon Drop flavors. Each mix is just 5 calories and is both sugar free & gluten free. 

I love how they come in single-serve packets.  These packets are incredibly convenient-the size of a Crystal Light packet they can be taken with you which means you can enjoy your diet drinks at a bar, restaurant, or a friend's BBQ. 

The mixes are dry and you mix them yourself.  It's very easy to make your drink-just take the mix, add water, and the appropriate alcohol and viola-a great cocktail! 

Now as for the taste, I was impressed by how good these mixers were.  My friends and I tested them out-no one even guessed that they were low-calorie.  Yes, they really are that good. 

What I Loved:

-The single-serve packets make it easy to take with you.  

-The taste!   You won't miss the extra 100 calories at all.

-Just 5 Calories! Every diet can afford 5 calories.

What's Not to Love:

-Nothing! I wish they could add more flavors. 

Why we're bringing Go Cocktails to the beach: At just 5 calories, anyone can indulge guilt-free!

Shore to Please Giveaway Event: $85 Hapari Swimwear Gift Certificate

The summer is almost here and that means one thing for most of us: it's swimsuit season!  Now, I'm sure I'm not alone in my desperate search to find swimsuits that are both flattering and reasonably priced.  Well, in my quest I stumbled across Hapari Swimwear.

Hapari has a huge line of swimwear-from bikinis to tankinis to one-piece suits.  For two-pieces, you can buy each separately which allows you to customize your suit and get the perfect fit. The sizing ranges from 0 to 3x so there is a size that will fit you. 

Here's a look at some of the swimsuits that will end up on your shopping list:

Hapari has an amazing collection of swim skirts like the Raspberry Ice Ruffle Skirt shown to the left.  I love swim skirts because they provide more coverage while still making you look fashionable. (No need to show everything ladies!) Of course, you can also use them as a cover-up. Skirted bottoms really go from the beach to the boardwalk. 

Hapari has quite a collection of prints available for their swimsuits. Here's the Dolce Allure Bandeau Tankini top.  Many of their tankini tops can be worn three different ways: halter, tank, and criss-cross! Many also have pockets to add silicone breast inserts if you want extra oomph.  I am loving the versatility of these tops!

Here's a great example of Hapari's one-pieces. I love the print on the Island Mocha Sport.  Even better is the price tag-just $39!  I also love that you can tie the straps in 3 different ways: halter style, criss-cross or traditional tank style.

I'm sure that whatever type of swimsuit you're looking for that Hapari has it!  They also have mastectomy, junior girls, boys, and mens swimwear.  

Now...Hapari has generously offered to provide one winner with a $85 gift code for their website. To enter, please complete the Rafflecopter form below.  This giveaway is listed on contestgirl.com, Prizey.net, and Blog Giveaway Directory.
