{Product Review} JustFabulous 'Saleisha'


Saleisha, $39.95 


This is my third item received from JustFab and I hate to say it but I'm disappointed yet again. The shoes arrived in a black shoebox with the JustFab logo.  Inside was a dustcover bag, also with the logo.  The shoes however, which I expected to bare the logo as well are the brand Bamboo. The local '$10 Spot', 'Easy Pickings', 'Square One' and even the '$5 Shoe Warehouse' sell Bamboo shoes and not for $39.95!  

Are they cute? Yes. 

Are they true to size? Yes. 

But are they worth $39.95? No.

{Motherhood} Love LUV Diapers

Diapers, diapers, diapers.
My son is 2 yrs old but we're still dealing with diapers.  Yup, Mr. Kayden isn't potty trained...yet. 


I'm always on the hunt for the best prices.  With my first child I swore by Pampers.  I came to realize though that Pampers d i d  n o t work well with my son.  The solution?  Luvs!

They're cheaper but most importantly they gave me 'don't worry, there's no leak' results.  Baby is happy and dry and mommy is happy with more $ in the bank.  Yay for Luvs!

BJ's has the biggest box for the lowest price.  Size 4: 204 diapers = $33.99
Don't have a BJ's near you or don't feel like paying to become a member? 
Then shop at www.diapers.com where the same box is just a few dollars more at $37.99. 

What's even better? Both retailers accept manufacturers coupons which can be combined with their own retailer specials.

{Product Review} JustFabulous 'Alibi'


Alibi


I received my second order from JustFabulous today.  I was much more excited about this bag over the last I received.  I really liked the style of the bag but it was poorly constructed.  I first received the 'Detective' and just like it, they both look like purses you would get from cheap stores like Rainbow, Easy Pickings, Square One, etc. - which I could have overlooked.  The deal breaker was it not closing right.  It was frumpy and wouldn't hold it's shape.  Not worth the price paid for. I'm planning to return it and exchange it for another item, yet again.
