Tryazon_ USAopoly Mario Card Game_Free Sample Party

Hello,

I signed up for Tryazon.com. It is an awesome community where you are able to set-up your personal profile then head over to the party applications page to start applying to host some awesome parties. They also have “TRYABOX” opportunities to receive products to test and review without having to host a party. The tryabox opportunities are far more limited than the party host opportunities but always keep an eye out for both types of ways to participate. The house parties are great, they send you a box full with all kinds of goodies to make your party great and there are sometimes coupons to purchase the specified products. There are always plenty of extra goodies to make the party fun but also to give away to your guests to take home. I have been lucky enough to host about 5 parties in the last year and have learned about so many great new products and companies so I definitely suggest signing up.

This time I was selected to host a party featuring a Mario Card Game from USAopoly.  The card game looked super fun because it has a theme that my son and his friends would like but is something that the whole family can take part in and is something that is away from the screens.

In the sample pack we received: 

• 2 copies of the Mario Card Game 
• 10 Informational booklets for guests about other USAopoly games 

We hosted the party at our house and invited over all of our friends and family to join us in playing this awesome game.  The game was very fun and very easy to understand which was great as it can be difficult to get a group of people to understand and play a new game together.  This was especially good because we had my our papa over who is getting quite a bit older and would have difficulty understanding the rules to a complicated new game.  We also liked that we were able to easily shorten the game by giving each person less life tokens to start with.  This allowed us to play a few different rounds of the game throughout the party and with different players. I also liked that the ease of shortening the game will allow us to play in the evening and still get to bed at a reasonable time.  We absolutely enjoyed this game and look forward to taking it to Thanksgiving dinner for the cousins to play together and maybe some adults would like to join in on the fun too.  I am a collector and lover of classic monopoly but having tried a totally new game from USAopoly I am now very interested in checking out some of the other great games offered by them that I saw both in the booklets and on the website.  Seems like its time to throw out some of the oldies and get some new games in the house!

The Upside_Conti Bar Soap_Free Sample Review

Hello,

I signed up for The Upside Sharing Network community which is an awesome place where you have the chance to collaborate with other like-minded individuals in discussions and missions. Through the missions you are asked to share about the community and your experience with the products on your social media outlets and also in person with friends and family. Sometimes the missions offer a free sample to try and then share about while others require sharing with the chance of winning a prize. I definitely suggest you check out The Upside Community because it’s a great time.

This time I was selected to receive a free sample of Conti Bar Soap.  

In the Sample Pack I received: 

• Mission Details Card with social sharing information
• 1 (3.7oz) Conti Castile Pure Organic Olive Oil Sensitive Skin Bar Soap

I tried this soap in the shower as a body wash soap and ended up thinking that this soap was alright but not anything special. I typically use the shower gel from Bath & Body Works which I know is not great for my skin but I love the amazing scents that I get out of their body wash. I was excited to try this bar soap because it is different than my usual soap as it is a bar rather than gel for starters. I also liked that this soap said that it is a sensitive skin soap so I thought that might be much better for my skin. After using this soap for the first time I thought that my skin felt sort of funny, it was not soft and silky as I am used to, nor was it dry but rather it felt almost like rubber; not soft to rub but also not dry and rough it was a strange feeling. I guess that strange feeling might be actual cleanliness rather than still having soap residue on your skin but I was not fond of it. I also was surprised to find that my skin was quite a bit itchier than usual which was interesting since this is supposed to be a sensitive skin soap I had expected less itchiness but instead got more. Overall this soap was alright and I will continue to use it until it is gone but it is not something that I would purchase in the future. If I am not getting the sensitive skin benefits and am still itchy then I will continue using my awesome smelling gel from Bath & Body Works.

DigiTry_ Isadora Refried Beans_ Free Sample Review

Hello,

I signed up for DigiTry, a website that I found where you are able to sign up then apply to sample a variety of products in exchange for trying them and submitting and honest review.  I had signed up a while ago and had applied for a variety of products that I was not accepted for but finally I was accepted to try Isadora refried beans.

In the sample Pack I received:

• Information sheet with information on where to submit my review
• 1 (15.2oz) package of Isadora refried beans, Original

I decided to make a full Mexican dinner one night, complete with homemade tortillas and a taco/burrito station for my family to make up their own meals with.  I knew I was going to make these Isadora beans to try but to be safe, I also made some homemade beans in the crockpot and thank goodness I did.  As soon as we opened the package of beans, we noticed from the smell and appearance that they were quite different from other refried beans that we typically eat.  They were orange in color and had a chili aroma to them which seemed strange.  We chose to heat them in a saucepan on the stove which worked well and then both my husband and I tried the beans.  We were both somewhat unimpressed with the flavor, I thought my husband captured it perfectly when he said "they are more like hormel chili than refried beans" and I would have to agree.  I think had we been expecting a chili bean we would have been more satisfied than expecting a refried bean taste.  I think these had a decent taste but were not what we are used to and were not the right flavor to add to the Mexican dinner we were having.  I do not think that my family would purchase these in the future because they were just not our style but I would be open to recommending them to others if they are looking for more of a chili style bean.  

From looking at the website, there are a variety of good recipes that I might like to try.  I think the beans that we received might be much better when combined with a recipe found on their website like the Tex Mex Pizza. I just might give these another try after having seen the recipes.

Ripplestreet_ Folgers 1850 K-Cup _Free Sample Party Review

Hello,

I signed up for Houseparty.fun which recently changed to Ripplestreet.com. It is an awesome community where you are able to set-up your personal profile then Head over to the party applications page to start applying to host some awesome parties. They also have “chatterbox” opportunities to receive products to test and review without having to host a party. The chatterbox opportunities are far more limited than the party host opportunities but always keep an eye out for both types of ways to participate. The house parties are great, they send you a box full with all kinds of goodies to make your party great and there are always coupons to purchase the specified products (usually for free) or they will include the products in the package. There are also always plenty of extra goodies to make the party fun but also to give away to your guests to take home. I have been lucky enough to host about 5 parties in less than a year and have learned about so many great new products so I definitely suggest signing up.

This time I was selected to host a party featuring 1850 coffee k-cups thanks to the Ripplestreet site and Folgers Coffee.

In the sample pack I received:

• 1850™ Black Gold K-Cup® Pods (18ct Box) 
• 1850™ Pioneer Blend K-Cup® Pods (18ct Box) 
• 11 1850™ Tote bags
• 1 1850™ Block Stacking Game
• 11 1850™ Coupons Redeemable at Target
• 1 Set of 1850™ cups
• 1 Set of 1850™ napkins
• 11 1850™ Enamel Pins
• 11 Adventure Logs

I hosted the party with my friends and family and chose to structure the party as a relaxation day.  It was just starting to get a bit cold during the weekend that I hosted the party so it had the perfect feeling in the air for a day of sitting back and relaxing with those we care about.  The coffee was delicious and we were lucky enough to have all 4 flavors, Lantern Glow, Black Gold, Pioneer Blend, and Trailblazer.  Having all flavors allowed each of the party attendants to select the brew strength that they desire and I purchased a variety of creamer flavors so that everyone could find their perfect flavor.  We spent the party time sitting around watching a movie and casually playing the block stacking game that we received.  The block stacking game was essentially Jenga and my son was super excited to have received this after he had been asking for a set after we saw them at Oktoberfest.

Lantern Glow: My husband and mother liked this flavor best because it is a light roast.  My husband has only recently started to like coffee within the last year so he prefers the most lightly roasted coffee we can find so this was great for him.  As for my mother, she has been trying to cut back on the dark roast/ high caffeine coffee so this light roast was something that she was excited to try and was pleasantly surprised at her delight with the flavor.  My son also tried a bit of this coffee with his daddy, of course it was daddy style and they had a little bit of coffee with their cup of creamer.

Pioneer Blend: This light-medium roast coffee was also great for my mother and husband and really everyone at the party.  It is a great neutral coffee that is neither too light nor too dark.  I continued to give this blend to my husband for several days for work and he seemed to enjoy it each day.

Trailblazer: This medium-dark roast coffee was definitely more my speed than the others.  This coffee had a wonderful bold flavor but was not too overpowering for the caramel flavored creamer that I had put into it.  I snagged as many of these as I could for myself in the mornings and will certainly be purchasing more.


Black Gold: This dark roast blend was absolutely my favorite of the four brew strengths.  I prefer a dark bold roast for my coffee and this definitely satisfied without being too overpowering.  I have tried some dark roasts that can be like drinking motor oil whereas this one was dark and bold but allowed the creamer to do its job and contribute to the flavor.  I have already purchased another box of this flavor and will continue to switch between this and my usual favorite Starbucks flavor.

Moms Meet_Wild Planet Organic Tuna & Chicken _Free Sample Review

Hello,

I signed up for MomsMeet.com which is an awesome community of parents and caregivers that collaborate on information to help guide you and your family to a healthy better for you lifestyle. In this community, you can sign up to become either a mom ambassador or a blog ambassador. The mom ambassadors are women or moms that have a moms group where you will be able to share some great goodies with your group. The Blog ambassadors need to have a blog already set-up and make sure you know how to track your visitor usage before applying because they asked a million questions about how many visitors, followers, likes, etc. After becoming approved as either a mom or blog ambassador, you are then able to start applying to receive for free, test, and review some awesome products that you can feel good about giving to your family. In the community you can also participate in quests based on the sample applications and learn more about the products and earn some points for momsmeet.com. With your points you are able to redeem them for some goodies, occasionally they have surprise sample boxes available to redeem but I have not yet been lucky enough to catch them at the right time. Other than that I feel the prizes are pretty generic and are stuff I could print off of google myself so I do not want to redeem my points for those items. They just announced the implementation of badges, which I am super excited about. They have been mentioning badges for a while but it just started up where you can receive badges for completing quests, completing sample missions, joining in discussions, and more. I love the badges because it gives you a fun way to visually track your progress and remind you of the awesome sample meetings you have gotten to host. I also love that they offer coupons or discount codes for the products that they are featuring, I already saved 10% on trash bags from Amazon thanks to one of these codes for HippoSaks. Definitely checkout momsmeet.com to start contributing with other mamas and to have your chance at some great free items.

This time I was selected to participate in a Moms Group Sample Meeting with Wild Planet Organic Tuna, Chicken and Fish canned products.

In the Sample Pack I received:

• 1 Package of Sardines
• 1 Can of Organic Wild Albacore Tuna
• 5 Cans of Organic Chicken Breast
• 15 Recipe Cards 
• 15 Information Booklets 
• 15 Coloring Books for the kids - with a coupon on the back
• 1 Lunch Bag

I hosted my moms meet group sample meeting on a Saturday in October with my friends and family who were nice enough to join us. To test out the samples I thought it was best to make a standard chicken salad sandwich, everyone is familiar with this so it would give them a good sense of the taste of the actual chicken without masking it with more overpowering flavors. The chicken had a great taste and was so easy to make without having to drain any juice. It did take a bit more work to sort of pull apart the chicken into shreads but it was also nice to see that it was like real meat. One of the party guests mentioned that she would try her sample can at home by putting it into a chicken salad for a couple of lunches.

As for the sardines, none of the sample meeting attendees were interested in sardines but luckily they happen to be a favorite of my grandpas so I gave the container of sardines to him. He took them home and ate them with crackers and said that they were very tasty.
 As for the kids, they obviously were not overly excited about chicken salad sandwiches but they all enjoyed coloring in the cute coloring books that were provided and the mamas liked the coupon on the back so that they can pick up some more of these cans of chicken or tuna.
