Smiley 360 Missions-COUPONS INSIDE!!

As mentioned in a previous post (you can read it here), I love free stuff and work with several companies trying out the latest and greatest! I love trying new products and being able to share my thoughts with everyone.  Smiley 360 is one of the better sites out there for quality campaigns.  As long as you are willing to have a big mouth (I think I actually got in trouble for that in school a lot) they will keep sending you stuff to review!

This is my 3rd and 4th mission.  First, let's talk about Arm & Hammer Truly Radiant mission.

They sent me the following.....

 A FULL SIZE tube of Truly Radiant and a FULL SIZE electronic toothbrush!

Before I got the tooth paste, I asked around to see if anyone currently uses this and what they think. See, I have very sensitive chompers and have used Sensodyne for a while.  I also use Crest White Strips monthly.If I can use this toothpaste and still use the white strips, then I know the toothpaste is not contributing to my sensitivity issue.

It was the consensus that this is a great toothpaste.

When we got it,my husband tried it too.  Right now we are paying double on toothpaste since he does not like to use my toothpaste.  I think he also forgot that this was a campaign and I received the product free for testing purposes.  He just assumed I grabbed whatever was on sale. :)  He said he LOVED this toothpaste.  What man cares about toothpaste??  He said that he liked that it foamed in his mouth and was super fresh!  SCORE!  More positive feedback :)

I myself tried it and agreed.  Plus, this toothpaste goes BEYOND the surface and repairs enamel.  If you guzzle on soda all day though, it is not going to help much.  Another thing worth mentioning is Truly Radiant is made with baking soda so it is gentle whitening on your teeth but you will get results.  I did within 5 days!

As for the toothbrush, I let my husband try that for me (ya know, the whole sensitive teeth thing) and he said he felt it reached the back of his back teeth better than other electronic brushes he has tried before.  I think the last one he used was a Spiderman one I got him as a stocking stuffer but still :)   Using the toothpaste and the toothbrush together is also supposed to be proven to whiten teeth better than using them alone.

The second campaign I received this week is the Caltrate Gummy Bites mission.  This one I am really excited about.  :)

This is what they sent me.....

They sent me a ton of samples to share with ya'll and a PEDOMETER (step counter)! How cool is that?? The first thing I did was grab Paisley and take her for a walk.  Stay tuned to see how many steps I took :)

Caltrate Gummy Bites are gummy calcium and Vitamin D supplements.  I don't know about you but I cannot stand taking huge horse pills every morning!!  We have used gummy vitamins and gummy B Complex for a while now.  Caltrate does have an easy to swallow option if you do prefer taking a pill and they also have a non dairy option.

The gummies come in 3 different flavors: Black Cherry, Orange and Strawberry.  I received all 3 flavors free for testing purposes and I think I like Strawberry the best.  81% of women do not get enough calcium from food alone and will eventually need a supplement to prevent osteoporosis.  This can help you!

I think a supplement is pretty self explanatory but let me know if you have any questions on them by posting below!

The first 5 people to comment on this blog post will get a sample mailed to them!

Oh and this is how many steps we took on our walk!!

Is it double for Paisley since she has 4 legs?? :)

Stay tuned for the next Smiley 360 campaign which is for Pepcid AC.  If you enjoy spicy stuff as much as Nick and I do, you're gonna wanna check that one out!

Have a great day!!

Freebies Galore!!! A How To Guide On Getting Loot :)

Everyone is always asking me how on earth do I get so much free stuff??  I truly work for it with the help of a select few websites.  Plus I have a job where I have a lot of down time which makes it a bit easier.  I love getting free stuff and some might call it a bit of an obsession but again it is FREE!!

Today I want to share all of my free stuff gettin' secrets to share the wealth!  :)

Now granted, like I said, getting free stuff does require some work and research on your part.  Some people didn't realize that but of course for each sample, you do need to provide a shipping address and for each website you do need to set up an account.  I recommend creating a new email account that only free sample emails and confirmations go to.  That way you can control the amount of spam (if any) and can unsubscribe if you have received your sample.  A lot of companies ask that you "like" their Facebook page and follow their newsletters in order to send you samples.  I myself did not set up my own sample email account and wish I had.

I will start out with the easiest ones first :)

The first website that I ever signed up for is FreeFlys.  They have all types of categories on free stuff, health, kids, beauty, food and other.  Each time a free sample is available, they put a post up on Facebook and you just follow the link and get it!  You do need to create an account on their website with your email and password.  Once you sign up and start requesting samples, you get them within 6-8 weeks :) You do not need to provide feedback to freeflys, but may be required to do so on the actual companies site or via their email.

Next up is Hunt For Freebies.You do not need an account with an email and password for this one and they also update on their FB page each time they have a freebie to offer. In addition to samples, they also always announce when companies are having sweepstakes and contests, which is nice.

You can also search for freebie groups on FB.  I do know most of the ones I am on are closed groups and you do need to be added but it doesn't hurt to search them out :)

Now moving on to the harder websites.

PINCHME is a more interactive website.  Every other Tuesday at 11 am, central time, they offer to send you a box filled with personalized samples.  Of course before this happens you do need to set up an account with an email and password and fill out the occasional  survey.  The other thing to keep in mind, is that everyone that joined, all over the world is logging in at the exact same time.  So more often than not, you do need to keep refreshing your browser to see the samples available to you.  It is worth it! Me and my friends that do this get samples each and every time we log in.  When you do receive the samples, you should go back in and answer the questions and provide feedback.  That helps increase your chances of getting more samples each time you log in! The next samples will be released Tuesday, July 15th. Sign up!!

Smiley360 is another interactive website.  You also set up an account with an email and a password. Set up your profile.  You can check in often to see what "missions" are available, but they usually send you an email when a mission that they think you would best qualify for is available.  I have gotten 3 already this past month.  When you receive your box with your free products, coupons and other items, you will need to share on social media and write reviews with your opinions on the products.  In my opinion, I find this one pretty easy.  Sure they want you to share on social media, but the tasks for each mission are pretty much the same.

Now on to BZZAgent .  This is probably my favorite one.  Again, set up an account with an email and password and fill out the profile and surveys.  You will need to check the site often as they do not send you an email when new surveys are available.  Completing the surveys is how they will select you for new product campaigns.  However, you will get an email when there is a new campaign for you to participate in. Make sure you also follow them on FB as they tend to mention when new campaigns are coming out on there, too.  I have also had 5 campaigns within the last month.  They have been incredible campaigns too and have sent me tons of products that I have reviewed and shared.  This one is more intensive when it comes to providing feedback and sharing on social media.  The more you work, the more campaigns you will get. They do a scoring system of BZZ points, so of course, the higher, the better. Also, when you complete tasks, they offer you MYPoints, which directly links to a website that you can use your points on to collect rewards.  I have not collected enough points quite yet to get an awesome prize :)

The hardest one, and the one I understand the least, is Influenster.  Meaning, I cannot yet figure out the scoring system.  This one is entirely social media based and also heavily based on what you do on their site.  You need to set up an account again and I would suggest reading the how to guide.  I do know they also use a scoring system and the more social media accounts you connect with the higher your score goes.  Plus once you receive items from them, there are a variety of tasks to complete.  I have been a member for a while and only received one box of samples.  It was an amazing box though so the wait was worth it :)

And that's how I do it!

I will be writing about post just about beauty panels that I am in so keep an eye out for that one!! :)

What other sites are there that I am missing out on?

I'd love to know!

Let me know in the comments below!

Have a great day :)
