Review: I had to reread the product description to see if they attempted to say that this was a leather item, and they don't, which made me happy to know they wouldn't give false t testimony.

Now, on to the item. It's very well made. If you've read any of my reviews before you know I'm a picker and poker and prodder to make sure things are good and tight on the item. To many times have I been burnt by the I'm cheap, and cheaply made BS.

I have a feeling my daughter will have a blast drawing on the pages, she's an EXCELLENT artist for 12. Or maybe she'll write all the lyrics to every Shawn Mendez song, who knows.

I received this product for free/at a discount in exchange for an honest review, but all opinions are my own. No amount of money could get me to change my mind on what I think is fair. I do keep the items if they are 4 star or above, 3 stars or below are normally donated to the local thrift store.

Review:

I've been so impressed with this. I've done so much:

1. used on my chapped hands
2. used in my favorite bread recipe instead of oils
3. conditioned my daughter's hair

It really is good for just about anything. Just beware when getting books online, they tend to hype things up and give you recipes that are going to make you use things you wouldn't have in your pantry. I'm a normal girl, and I'm not going to get all kinds of fancy stuff to use coconut oil, and get its benefits. I just replaced my oils in some of my recipes and it turned out great. No coconut taste, just all around moist flavor in my food like I expected with my unhealthy oils.

I'd like to thank the company for the opportunity to try this product. My opinion is my own, and receiving this sample didn't affect my opinion of the product either for the good or the bad.

• Perfect for evening events,dance recital,proms and costume cosplay
• Pixnor bulk packing with good quality warranty.

Review: I am very pleasantly surprised at how beautiful this item is. I had expected it to be a little more flimsy than it actually was. C (my boyfriend's daughter) had a mild obsession with all things cat ears. She found them at the local Dollar Tree and has bought every color that they have. She did complain that the band was a little too tight on her head, she's an adult sized 12 year old. We jokingly said that we should put it on my boyfriend because the kids say he has a fat head. LOL But in all honesty I wouldn't feel bad stretching this metal because it's thick enough to do so without it breaking. I was shocked that the crystals were as stuck in there as they were. I mean I actually tried to pick them out of the setting and they wouldn't come out. I was rather proud of the manufacturer. This is definitely something that I would buy again if the need arose.

Review: It's no secret that I'm an electronic junkie. So when I saw this, I had to buy it. I will admit, I was a little bit disheartened by the fact that it didn't have a better user manual than it did. It only came with a basic pictorial manual that showed you how to set the set top up, and the main features that it had.

OK, I guess I've always been used to the plug and play options of other machines and devices. There are portions of the YCCTEAM MXIII-G S812 that are plug and play, such as Netflix, YouTube, etc. But I was really looking for a manual that walked me step-by-step through the process.

But, once I got over myself, I mean really, I'm a techie for crying out loud, I don't need someone to hold my hand, I've done this stuff before. I dug in and figured out how to get Kodi working, which is really quite interesting. Be careful the internet videos you watch on it, they make it way harder than you really need to make it. Just make a new profile and BOOM, you're on your way. Change the city, and the device is making more sense, and add a few more apps to customize it to what you are used to, and what you want it to be, and it's fully customizeable. What more could a girl want?

Basically, if the instruction manual had been a little beefier, and more...well - just more. I would have probably given this product a five star review. But it just lacked. I like to know more about what it is that I have and what it does.

Make sure you are willing to spend a little time digging into the android box to learn how it works. It does take a little time, but it's very well worth it in the end. I spend more time on it than I do my TV, and that's saying a lot. I hope you enjoy it.

Review: They say this works on the first day, and they aren't lying. I got a bottle of this from the company in order to give a honest review of the product, and wow.

I've got IBS, I know, too much info, but I've always felt too full and bloated. Almost full up to my breasts it seemed. But on the first day of taking this (only one capsule a day) I found that I was getting relief. I've found though that this is NOT something that I could take every day of my life. I took it for two weeks and realized that I'd had enough for a while and I was doing well, and needed a break. My system seemed in check and enough was enough.

I found it odd that the bottle only contained 50 capsules. seemed an odd number to me. But to each their own I guess. I definitely will be purchasing this in the future to keep myself in order, it's much less harsh than my doctor has been trying to put me through to keep my IBS in order and I feel much better with it.

Review: OK, I'm going to be honest, as I always am in my reviews. I was shocked. I ordered this initially for the RFID portion of the wallet. We live near the Canadian border, and it creeps me out that they can read you from so far away (we have enhanced drivers licences), and they probably still can through this wallet, I've not checked with them, but I do feel safer from credit card thieves. I saw that they said the wallet was leather, and I clearly thought that they were fabricating the whole thing since it was so inexpensive. I do have a slight lust for leather. I love walking into a leather store and being able to smell the leather, and that's the first thing I did with this wallet, and guess what, the smell is there! I was impressed.

My boyfriend hates when I buy things on Amazon because I make him let me take pictures of everything, because I'm one who wants to know what I'm buying, and I'm certain others do too. And most of the time, I wish that people would have taken pictures for me. So there are some pictures of what the wallet held, and what it looks like with all his mess in it.

Another thing I did was inspect all the sewing on wallet, there were no loose threading, or ends sticking out - which also made me feel really good about my purchase. (People really hate shopping with me! :) ) LOL

And something that bothers me greatly is not being able to get your license out of the sleeve once you put it in there. In this wallet, you're able to put it in and get it out with no problem. So when someone asks to see your license, you're not fighting for it.

Though I will admit that the wallet is a bit larger than the wallet that my boyfriend was using. He said he doesn't think that it's going to be a problem though.

Review: OK, we're a house full of geeks. I can't help it. So when I saw this gaming mouse at this price I couldn't help myself. I've seen mice (not the squeeky kind) for much more money that seemed much cheaper looking. So I thought what the heck. It would be a treat for the boys, and I had a little extra money. When I got this in, the first thing I thought was WOW, this thing is heavy duty. No flimsy - plastic piece of crap here. Which is good, I'd have been rather peeved. It was rather heavy actually, and I thought the boys would have a problem with that, but neither did. They both loved the rubber grip that was on the mouse, they said it made for a very comfortable gaming experience. They both touted that the mouse moved very smoothly over the surface of the desk, which was a surprise. (The boy has a $60 gaming mouse that doesn't move as smoothly. His words, not mine.) They were both pretty impressed with the lighting effects (see picture) of the mouse.

I will admit that my boyfriend had the best gaming experience of all, he is a lot bigger than our 15 year old. The mouse is designed more for a man's hand than a kid's hand. Though both said that some of the buttons got in the way, but I feel that's because they haven't had a chance to use it much and haven't gotten in the groove yet.

All in all I think it's a great fit for our family. My boyfriend says he's planning on taking it to work. Not sure if it's for work or if he plans on gaming at work. Do I need to let his boss know something?
