Cottonelle Fresh Folded Moist Wipes Tub 42
I like the feeling that you get by using a moist wipe after bathroom trips. I would much rather have the confidence of knowing I am completely clean—“ because we all know that toilet paper is not always as effective as you want it to be, because it is thin …
Butler flossers
Butler flossers are a must have. A bag of these flossers contains 50. Prior to using these, I bought my kids flossers directed at children but made the same way—”with the string in the middle of a plastic tool you hold to use when flossing. Those …
Pete Cerqua’s 90-Second Fitness Solution

Head and Shoulders 2 in 1 Classic Clean
I tried Head and Shoulders 2 in 1 Classic Clean when I was visiting a friend that had it in their shower. I had forgotten to bring my own shampoo. Although I didn’t purchase the shampoo myself, it can be purchased at Walmart for $9.24 for a 33.9 oz. …
Lasic surgery/eyes
I had lasic surgery on my eyes a few years back. I didn’t just go to the nearest surgeon for it. I checked out all the lasic surgeons from my area to ‘drive to’ other areas, before I made my choice of doctors. We only have two eyes, and …
Biotene Dry Mouth Gum
Public speaking always left me feeling nervous and tensed and so when I was assigned to give a speech regarding —˜parenting’ in my son’s school, I found myself at my wits end. The fact that —˜parenting’ had always been one of my favorite topics and required less preparation to …

Joan Rivers Right to Bare Legs (fair)

Emergen-C Multivitamin Plus Apricot-Mango
Although it’s certainly justifiable to call this drink mix a “multivitamin that isn’t a vitamin” since it does contain vitamins like vitamin B and C, it doesn’t actually offer as many vitamins, minerals and nutrients that a lot of multivitamins in pill form do. That means that this drink …

Colgate Kid’s Pop Stars Toothpaste, Mild Mint 4.6 oz
I have finally found the perfect mint toothpaste for me. I don’t know why I never tried this one before—“ probably because of the word “mint” on the label. I actually do like the taste of mint, but I find that most adult toothpastes are too strong and …

Lux Natural Bar Soap Blackberry Sage 4.5 oz
I love to use natural soaps, and a friend who shares my interest turned me on to a company called Lux Naturals. I was at first confused, because there is a Unilever brand called Lux soap, but this is completely different. These folks make good, old fashioned handmade cold process …
Nature’s Way Fo-Ti
I take various herbs and supplements in an attempt to keep myself from using traditional medicines. One herb I had heard good things about was fo-ti, as it is said to increase blood flow to the brain. The bottle I purchased lasted just over a month, and while I …

Banana Boat Ultra Mist Sport SPF 50 6 oz
When Neutrogena came up with a continuous spray product that had “Helioplex” which was their own UVA/UVB stable protection blend, Banana Boat did not waste any time coming up with their own “AvoTriplex” name for the same sort of photo-stable protection. I had to laugh a bit. Companies always …
Alli weight loss pills
So I kept seeing ads on television for this great weight loss product called Alli. One that even included a pharmacist to lost weight using this pill. I waited a while to try it because I heard that the pill had some rather nasty side affects. I did however …

Rite Aid Gentle Skin Cleanser 16 oz
When I had a serious skin problem once, my doctor recommended Cetaphil cleanser for using on my face or any body parts that were sensitive. It worked great and I loved it, but for the amount I had to use daily, it became very expensive. Having a serious skin …
