Purex Complete Crystals Softener Review & Giveaway

I was chosen to be a part of the Purex Insiders program.  I get to try new products, and share my opinion about them. I was sent a welcome package with a sample of the new Purex Complete Crystals Softener to try, and I simply love it. Purex Complete Crystals Softener comes in a unique crystal form that is 92% natural, it's added at the beginning of the wash cycle, and the crystals dissolve adding a nice infusion of freshness to laundry. It's safe for all laundry and better for it. Purex Complete Crystals comes in three delightful scents of: Fresh Spring Water, Lavender Blossom, and Tropical Splash, and retails for about $3.99 to $5.99 depending on the retailer. It is available in food, drug, and mass retailers nationwide. I tried the Fresh Spring Water fragrance, and was pleasantly surprised at how well it worked for me. My laundry smells so good, and the scent lingers for several days. I can't wait to try the other two fragrances! Find out more at here.

Safe for use in both Standard and High Efficiency (HE) washers.

Cellphone Postcards Review

Cellphone Postcards, a new service that turns the pictures you take with your cell phone or digital camera into real, high-quality glossy postcards. You can sign up for free, and no credit card is required. Each card is 99 cents each sent anywhere in the United States. The cost to send internationally is $1.98. Postcards are sold in packs of 10 and 20. Using their website is really easy, and quick. When you register with Cellphone Postcards, they give you one postcard absolutely free with their trial offer. They also send you a copy of that postcard so you can see how it looks. The trial expires when your free trial postcard and personal copy has been sent. Message and data rates may apply. Sending the postcards is so easy. I just uploaded a photo from my computer, added a cute message, then the address of the person to whom I was sending it to, and then I was done. They print, stamp and mail the card for you. I can see myself using this service in the future. Sending more Cellphone Postcards to family, and friends is going to be fun.

I am a BzzAgent and got a free trial of the service. These thoughts and opinions are my own.

Review Of CMT's New Sitcom "Working Class" Premiering 1/28/11





WORKING CLASS focuses on Carli Mitchell (Melissa Peterman), a single mom from a rough and tumble background, trying to give her kids a better life by moving them to an upscale suburb. She quickly finds that making the transition to “the good life” is harder than she thought! She's unwittingly befriended by her cranky neighbor, Hank (Ed Asner), her only “career” prospect is a glorified deli job at the local grocery store, and the man she falls for not only already has a girlfriend – but he’s also her boss, Rob (Patrick Fabian). With her ladies-man brother, Nick (Steve Kazee), to help her out (when he’s not acting like one of the kids himself), Carli faces the challenges of parenting, dating, and making friends in her new community by doing more with less, staying true to herself, and approaching each day with a touch of working class.

 

WORKING CLASS premieres January 28 at 8:00 p.m., ET/PT on CMT.


Premiere Episode: “The Buddy System”  
Carli’s old flame from high school shows up hoping to re-ignite his “spark” with Carli — even if it means humiliating her in front of her new boss. 


My review: This show is hilarious, and so is Melissa Peterman. Do you remember Melissa in Reba, as Barbara Jean? If you thought Melissa was funny in Reba - then you'll love Working Class!  I've also been a fan of Ed Asner for as long as I can remember, and he adds that special touch to this show that none other could do. I feel this show is going to be a keeper! You gotta see it, really. You can check out Working Class on CMT, and connect with Working Class on Facebook where you can watch a sneak peak of the show. 

The complete cast includes:
• Melissa Peterman – “Carli Mitchell”
• Ed Asner – “Hank Greziak,” Carli’s neighbor.
• Steve Kazee – “Nick Garrett,” Carli’s brother.
• Patrick Fabian – “Rob Parker,” Carli’s boss and love interest.
• Lachlan Buchahan – “Scott Mitchell,” Carli’s eldest son.
• Courtney Merritt – “Pam Mitchell,” Carli’s daughter.
• Cameron Castaneda – “Will Mitchell,” Carli’s youngest son.
The show will also feature multiple guest stars throughout the season, including recently-announced Reba, whose on-screen reunion with Melissa Peterman will air in February. Additional guest stars include David Faustino (“Married with Children” and Not Another B Movie); Kathy Kinney (“The Drew Carey Show” and “The Secret Life of the American Teenager”); Martin Mull (“Roseanne” and “’Til Death”); John Schneider (“The Dukes of Hazzard”).

The One2One Network provided a free preview of the show for the purposes of this review. I received no monetary compensation, although I will be entered for a chance to win a CMT prize pack and gift card! The folks over at One2One are really sweet, and CMT is one of my favorite networks! The views expressed are my own.
