Here is what my Snail Mail box had for me this week.

Sample of Taylor Swift’s “Enchanted Wonderstruck”. I actually like it! It reminds me of “Poison” by Dior. OH and the memories that brings. 🙂

L’Oreal’s Gold Club rewarded me with a coupon for a FREE box of hair color.

Kit’s Organic fruit & nut bar ~ cashew. YUM! + BOGO Coupon. *hot*

Sample of  “SmartyPants” gummy vitamin for kids/adults. and a cute owl tattoo. This is courtesy of “Swaylo” on Facebook. The application I’ve been spammming you all with. This is the second “Perk” I’ve received by them.

I hope your snail mail box was good to you too! ~D

Influenster ~ Latina Vox Box

  • Posted on August 22, 2012 at 8:32 PM

Almost 2 months ago I signed up with a program called Influenster. From their website:

Apply to our trendsetter community and use your influence to qualify for complimentary PRODUCT SHIPMENTS, REWARDS & DEALS fit for your lifestyle. The more active you are, the more perks you get!

I love snail mail boxes, and I am always doing a survey for someone, so I figured why not. I imagined it would be months until I was chosen for a “VoxBox”, but I wasn’t brooding about it. Most programs ask for 100% participation on several occasions before you are up for perks. To my surprise I was chosen a few weeks ago for a Latina VoxBox. It arrived a few days ago. 🙂

 

I considered doing a video of my box, but I chickened out. I also just returned from a 2week vacation and I’m beat. So for now I’m just going to show you what goodies I got and in a week or so I’ll review the products either in this same format or *gulp* a video.

 

 

 

 

My Latina Beauty VoxBox contains the following:

VEET Ready to Use Wax Strips, Leg & Body $9.99 (Scared to death to try this, but I’ll be a trooper!)

NYC New York Color Liquid Lipshine. $ 2.49

NEW Bath and Body Works Shea-Enriched Signature Collection Shower Gel. $5

Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen. $7.99

Always Radiant Infinity Pads. $6.99 (Already use them and love them!)

Always Tampax Radiant Collection sampler (tampons,pads,liners in a cute wristlet)

Sooo roughly $32.46 worth of products.

I’ll update this post when I try EVERYTHING out. 🙂 BTW Disclosure: The product(s) featured in this post were provided for editorial consideration. Receipt of this product did not guarantee review and all opinions are my own.

Using Twitter to Find Giveaways

  • Posted on August 21, 2012 at 7:10 PM

If you are a serious sweepstakes/giveaway hunter like I am here is another way to find *hot* giveaways for stuff YOU want: TWITTER!

I’m still new to using Twitter to it’s fullest potential. I’ve had my account for over a year and I barely surpassed 1000 tweets recently. I don’t know that I ever will master it. I’m willing to try though. Now that I know what it can truly get me, I say BRING IT!  First of all, just like couponing and  sample hunting, create a Twitter account just for giveaways. Most if not all require that you re-tweet to enter. This will save your friends from being bombarded with “Contest Tweets” OK now let’s get started!

Use Twitter Search 

  • Think about what you need/want.
  • Search Twitter by item type or brand. Example: ”Clothing giveaway” or “Sephora giveaway.”
  • Scroll through the tweets and click on the hyperlinks of the giveaways that interest you.
  • Each blog is different. Make sure you follow the directions exactly or you’ll forfeit the entry.
  • Usually find a “Tweet” button on the blog giveaway post to complete your Tweet.
  • Go to your Twitter home page.
  • Click on your latest Tweet to see “details.”
  • When you click on “details” look for a URL unique to that Tweet.
  • Copy the URL and go back to the blog giveaway page and paste the URL to finish your Tweet entry.
  • Use Twitter to re-Tweet.

Follow Up

  • Most blogs allow one Tweet entry per day. The more you are able to enter, the higher your chances of winning.
  • To see previous entries, go to your Twitter home page. Click on Tweets.
  • Click on hyperlinks of the previous day’s entries and you can reenter from the blog’s giveaway post again.

Winning

  • Most blogs will send an e-mail and allow 48 hours for a reply with a name and address. I have found these contests are legitimate. They are new products sent from a company (not a blog) or from a contracted marketing firm. Remember, make sure you respond to contest entries that you’ve sought out and entered.
  • When the item arrives, send a quick reply to the blogger. If the prize fails to arrive for six weeks, contact the blogger who has direct contact with the company.

Obviously, the more time you devote to this, the more often you will win. It’s been slow for me at first, but I’m beginning   to receive 1-2 FREE  items a week.  As I put more time into it, I’m sure my rewards will grow greatly.

Freebie & Sample Sunday Roundup

  • Posted on July 22, 2012 at 1:10 PM

Once again I’m going to TRY to keep track of sample/freebies I sign up for weekly. To make sure you don’t miss out, follow me on Facebook where I share 99% of my entries. If it’s not linked, it’s not available. If it’s linked, but the sign up is over I apologize too. These tend to go fast so if you are interested I urge you to sign up now.

It’s a lot of entries, but worth it in my opinion. Just sign up for the ones you know you’ll really REALLY use.

I hope you’re having a wonderful Sunday! Let me know what goodies you score and if there isn’t something on my list that you know about, please share. 🙂
