scooby doo sweepstakes

Do I have any Scooby fans out there?!? Well, if I do have I got some exciting news for you. Today, Warner Brothers announced the Scooby-Doo Mystery Movie Sweepstakes, offering fans a chance to win a trip to Los Angeles to visit the set of the new live-action Scooby-Doo movie! The grand prize winner and three guests will win a trip to Los Angeles and have the opportunity to take a VIP tour of the set of the new Scooby-Doo movie, experience the excitement of filmmaking first hand, view actual film sets and possibly meet the cast. In addition, the top 10 first-prize packages will include a Scooby-Doo! The Mystery Begins DVD and a Nintendo Wii or Nintendo DS version of the Scooby-Doo First Frights game.

My oldest son Rylan is a huge Scooby-Doo fan!  He just turned 4 and he walks around singing “Scooby-Dooby-Doo, where are you” and he totally cracks me up.  My husband has a Scooby-Doo pillow from when he was a young child that Rylan has in his room.  It’s really cool seeing my son enjoy something his daddy enjoyed when he was his age.

Once you enter the sweepstakes you will be given a code.  Make sure you enter the code at Scooby-Doo Zoinks Points, a consumer rewards program.  It is the first program of its kind and it offers fans the opportunity to download and access free, exclusive online content with the purchase of all Scooby-Doo licensed products. Users have access to a vast and ever-expanding collection of online and downloadable content, including custom Scooby-Doo online games, video clips, wallpapers, screen savers, podcasts and more.

lysol healthy touch logo

You’re right in the middle of preparing dinner – chicken to be exact – and you hear a knock on the door.  Your hands have raw chicken on them and you’re home alone.  Normally you would have to pick up the soap bottle or push on the soap dispenser leaving nasty, potentially harmful germs.  Not anymore with Lysol’s Healthy No-Touch Hand Soap System!

A recent study found that soap pumps can harbor hundreds of bacteria which can then transfer to your hands. The No-Touch Hand Soap System can help stop the spread of germs by automatically sensing hands and dispensing antibacterial soap that kills 99.9% of bacteria, including E.coli, MRSA and Strep.

lysol healthy touchI was recently sent a review sample of the system and have been using it for a couple of weeks.  The first thing I noticed was the sleek, compact design.  I’m not usually one for bottles on the sink or countertop, but the Lysol No-Touch Hand Soap System actually looks nice and doesn’t take up much space at all.  It’s a little bit bigger than the size of a normal bottle of hand soap.

I also like how easy it is to set up.  When I was setting mine up, the hardest part was getting it out of the package.  Once I finally got it out, all I had to do was:

  • insert the batteries
  • remove the sticker from the soap refill bottle
  • insert the refill into the dispenser
  • turned it on
  • and waited for the red indicator light to stop blinking!

I’m a busy mommy, so easy set-up is a huge plus for me.

In addition to being easy to set-up, it is also easy to use.  All you have to do is place your hand underneath the nozzle, making sure your hand is between the nozzle and the indicator light.  If you put your hand too low, it won’t work. Then, the dispenser will automatically sense your hand and dispense the perfect amount of soap.  Simple, right?!?

lysol healthy touch line up

I received the Soothing Cucumber Splash scent and it smells A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I am a huge fan of the scent and I think it’s perfect for the bathroom or the kitchen! It also comes in Refreshing Grapefruit Essence and Cleansing Green Tea & Ginger. I’d love to try both!

The Lysol No-Touch Hand Soap Starter Kit comes with one dispenser, one 8.5 ounce hand soap refill and 4 AA batteries. You can also purchase the refills individually in all three scents.

I really like the Lysol No-Touch Hand Soap System and will continue to purchase the refills. It really makes things so much easier in the kitchen!

Buy:

You can purchase the Lysol No-Touch Hand Soap Starter Kit for a suggested retail price of $9.97.  The refills are also available for a suggested retail price of $3.47. Starter kits and hand soap refills will also be available at grocery, drug and mass stores nationwide.

Giveaway:

One Simply Being Mommy reader will win a Lysol No-Touch Hand Soap Starter Kit valued at $9.97!

Simply visit Lysol and leave me a comment below letting me know which scent you would like to try most!

pampers logo

I currently only have one child in diapers (thank goodness) and our brand of choice is Pampers. We’ve used Pampers with both boys all the way from Swaddlers to Cruisers. If I find a good deal on another brand, I’ll buy them – but I prefer to use Pampers.

I was recently sent a pack of Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max to review with our little guy Peyton and I have to admit, I’m quite impressed. Peyton has never really been one to leak through his diaper, but sometimes he does throughout the night.

pampers with dry max diapers

I immediately started using the Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max and I couldn’t help but notice how thin they are. According to Pampers, they are 20% thinner with no sacrifice in performance! Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max helps lock wetness away up to 12 hours – making this their driest diaper ever.

About Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max:
Pampers Swaddlers and Cruisers with Dry Max are the brand’s new high performance diapers and the biggest innovation for the Pampers brand in the last 25 years. Pampers Diapers invented the Dry Max technology and applied it to the current Swaddlers and Cruisers core, which allows the diaper to be thinner than before. This game-changing diaper – Pampers’ driest ever – helps lock wetness in for up to 12 hours and its less bulky design helps give flexibility and comfort – perfect for all of babies’ play. The new diaper design also helps families reduce their impact on the environment by containing 10 percent less material weight. In fact, if current North American Pampers Swaddlers and Cruisers users switched to the new Pampers Cruisers Diapers with Dry Max diaper, they could together throw away the weight of 1 billion less diapers every three years (based on 08/09 volume for Swaddlers/Cruisers).

I am sold on the new Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max.  The thin design and superior leak protection is top notch and made my mornings much easier!

Buy:

Request your free sample of Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max.  The  new Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max hit store shelves in March and you can purchase them anywhere where diapers are sold.

One Simply Being Mommy reader will win a weeks supply of Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max as well as a cute, limited edition Liz Lange diaper clutch.

lego the adventures of clutch powersMy oldest son is a huge LEGO fan!  Not only does he like the building blocks, he also enjoys playing LEGO Star Wars and LEGO Batman on the XBox 360.  I was ecstatic to receive our complimentary review copy because I knew my son would absolutely love it! And just for the record – I was right!

LEGO: The Adventures of Clutch Powers is the first LEGO movie on DVD and the first time you’ll be able to see the creative world of LEGO come to life in this all-new feature-length DVD!

Synopsis:

Meet Clutch Powers, the best builder and explorer in the LEGO®universe as he heads off on his most dangerous mission yet. Join Clutch and his team of LEGO®experts as their adventure leads them from LEGO® City to the Space Police prison planet to the medieval world of Ashlar where they must help the rightful heir to the King’s throne find the courage to regain the kingdom from the evil wizard Mallock the Malign. Their brick-building skills will be put to the ultimate test as they face off against Mallock’s skeleton army. Get ready for an action-packed adventure like nothing you have ever seen before, The Adventures of Clutch Powers!

My son was totally drawn in from the moment the movie started.  He sat quietly on the couch and watched Clutch and his team as they traveled from LEGO City all the way to the Ashlar.  The movie did an incredible job of keeping his attention and the constant action-packed adventure proved to be entertaining.

The team is having a hard time working together as a team and things just aren’t working out like they should.  Their constant fighting and bickering is holding the team back.  Check out LEGO: The Adventures of Clutch Powers to see if they can unite as a team and help the heir to the King’s throne find the courage to regain the kingdom.

Buy:

LEGO: The Adventures of Clutch Powers is available at many retail outlets as well as online retailers like Amazon for a suggested retail price of $14.99.

Giveaway:

One Simply Being Mommy reader will win their very own copy of LEGO: The Adventures of Clutch Powers on DVD.

The Princess and the Frog’s colorful cast of one-of-a-kind new characters joyfully raises the roof, with voice performances from stars including Tony Award winner Anika Noni Rose (Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a Musical, 2004,“Caroline, or Change”), Keith David (Crash), Jenifer Lewis (“Strong Medicine”), Jim Cummings (“Mickey Mouse Clubhouse”), Michael-Leon Wooley (Ghost Town), Bruno Campos (“Nip/Tuck”), Peter Bartlett (The Producers), Terrence Howard (Hustle & Flow), Jennifer Cody (Broadway’s “Shrek: The Musical”), Oprah Winfrey and John Goodman (Monsters, Inc.).
