Diapers.com Styling Fashions for Kids with a $100 Gift Card Giveaway

May 20, 2012 By 23 Comments

Diapers.com has recently re-launched their apparel & shoe shop for Babies & Kids and we’re celebrating with a giveaway of $100 Diaper.com gift card. I also went on a shopping spree for 4 year old Kyle as they have the CUTEST clothing online to order for kids ages 0-5T. I love how CRAZY fast my orders are delivered too – we are talking arrival the very next day plus I love their free shipping too. I was able to easily order styling clothes for Kyle super quick because of their new “Find it fast tool” which literally let me slice and dice to see what I was looking for. This tool let’s Mom filter by brand, by type of clothing,  gender, age, etc.).

There’s also 365 day returns so you don’t have worry if clothes don’t fit. The mix of brands is great too from higher end boutique type brands like the Tea Collection to my favorite mass brands – like Carter’s. The Diapers.com Store now includes 100+ brands and over 25,000 items – Wow! Even brands like Crocs and Converse too.

Here’s Kyle styling in his new Carter’s PJ’s.

And here’s Kyle working it in his new polo style shirt from “GreenKids”.

Win it! We’re giving away a $100 Diapers.com gift card to one lucky reader. I put together some cute and hip finds from Diapers.com and created some outfit boards – Leave a comment below voting for your favorite boards by May 23rd.

Great Summer Read: Wife 22 with a Book Copy & $50 Visa Gift Card Giveaway

May 19, 2012 By 33 Comments

Win it too! Looking for a good read for the summer or a new book for your Book Club? Check out Melanie Gideon’s new book, Wife 22, which hits stores on May 29th. Read a free excerpt of Wife 22 here at this link. 

We received an advanced copy to review and I read it last weekend in about 48 hours as I couldn’t put it down. The book just spoke to me as someone who is married for almost 10 years with 2 children as the main character, a suburban wife, takes stock of her life. I loved how modern and relevant this book felt to my life too – especially as the character carries on texting relationships, a mysterious Facebook friendship, and a hysterical foray into Twitter.

Here’s the official scoop as this is a great synopsis – and watch the trailer too!

For fans of Helen Fielding’s Bridget Jones’s Diary and Allison Pearson’s I
Don’t Know How She Does It comes an irresistible novel of a woman losing
herself . . . and finding herself again . . . in the middle of her life.

When Alice Buckle, who has been married to William for nearly twenty years,
receives a survey in her e-mail from the Netherfield Center for the Study of
Marital Happiness, she is in the doldrums. She loves her husband but they’ve
grown distant, she is bored with her job, and her adolescent children need
her less now. And she has reached the age at which her mother died. So as
she idly begins answering the questions, she finds herself baring her soul
in an anonymous survey she never even intended to respond to. As she
struggles, she realizes it has been years since anyone asked deep, serious
questions of her, and really listened to her answers. Soon her entire life
as she knows it is called into question.

Here’s what we’re giving away:

One (1) winner will receive:

* A copy of Wife 22

* $50 Visa gift card to rejuvenate your relationship with a night
out!

Enter to win by leaving a comment by June 4th, 2012. Giveaway open to US addresses only.

Eureka SuctionSeal Vacuum Review and #Giveaway

May 9, 2012 By 333 Comments

Here’s the scoop on the new Eureka SuctionSeal Vacuum and a chance to Win it!

We took the Eureka SuctionSeal Vacuum for a test run and we’re giving away a Eureka SuctionSeal Vacuum to 1 lucky ClassyMommy.com reader.

What we loved about it:  This vacuum is 1/2 the price of a Dyson at $149. Fabulous! And yes the suction proved itself – we’re talking CRAZY awesome suction for cleaning power.  I’d say that YES it lived up to the hype in the marketing materials saying that the new Air Speed Technology  of the Eureka Suction Seal had BETTER suction power than the Dyson DC41 at half the price.

Honestly this bagless vacuum became instantly filled with incredible amounts of dirt since it was sucking better than any vacuum we’ve ever used at our house. We’re talking insane amounts of dirt here – after just 2 uses we needed to empty it! If you have a pet and lots of extra dirt, I think this might be the vacuum for you. I’ve never seen suction like this!

Why the great suction? Eureka’s popular and exclusive AirSpeed Technology.  Here’s an explanation of it from their materials:  ”AirSpeed Technology uses two wide, smooth tubes with limited bends and turns, allowing more air to pass through the vacuum for powerful suction – unlike most vacuums that propel air through a long nozzle and hose system full of twists and texturing.”

The cons: This vacuum is extremely heavy and far more difficult to lift for me than our Dyson or other lightweight vacuums we’ve owned. Also, the cord was far shorter than that on our Dyson which required us to do lots of unplugging and re-plugging which we found annoying. We have a big home with a very large finished basement and regular downstairs living area in our Kitchen/Family room so the cord length didn’t work for us the way we’d like it to or we’ve become accustomed to with our current Dyson and the weight of the Vacuum was a big obstacle for me as far as my ability to use the vacuum in various parts or floors of our home.

Enter to win:

1. Please leave a comment below by May 27th, 2012.

2. Like ClassyMommy on Facebook here and leave a comment telling me you liked our page

3. Daily comments allowed. 

Disclosure: Thanks to Eureka for our sample to facilitate our review and for giving us another unit to share with a reader. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

What to Expect When Your Expecting #Giveaway

May 8, 2012 By 31 Comments

Win it!

Okay, this is a fun one!  I’m beyond THRILLED to be working withCentrum Specialist® PreNatal to host a special Movie screening for the upcoming movie, “What to Expect When Your Expecting” from Lionsgate, at my local movie theater in King of Prussia PA.

To raise awareness about the importance of taking those prenatal vitamins for proper  pregnancy nutrition, Centrum Specialist Prenatal has teamed up with Classy Mommy for me to bring 5 winners (2 tickets/winner) to a special showing of this movie. Hooray!

Seriously, doesn’t this movie look HYSTERICAL? I can’t think of a better way to connect with other Moms and Moms to Be than sharing – and in my case commiserating over our pregnancy stories. Pretty much every “Mom to Be” relies on the book “What to Expect When Your Expecting” and I’m so excited to see how they turn this pregnancy bible into a movie. The body changes, the symptoms, and the prep for labor and delivery.  This movie is sure to be so much fun to go see with a bunch of girlfriends.

ClassyMommy.com will choose 5 winners and each winner can bring a Guest with them to attend this special screening with me next week on Monday May 14th, 2012 at 7:30 PM at the United Artists Movie Theater in King of Prussia. 

Centrum Specialist Prenatal especially wants to connect with “Soon-to-Be” Moms and New Moms so we can shower you with this fun screening of “What to Expect When Your Expecting” plus Centrum Specialist Prenatal goodies too.

Here’s the scoop on how to enter:

1. Please leave a comment below by 2:00 PM EST on Thursday May 10th, 2012 telling me what you expect during your pregnancy or how your past pregnancies lived up to your expectations. (You know all those fun details – symptoms, emotions, crazy cravings for pickles or in my case a need to sustain myself on only grilled cheese and egg sandwiches.)

Additional Entries (please leave an additional comment for each )

2. Like ClassyMommy on Facebook. 

3. Follow ClassyMommy on Twitter 

Was your pregnancy what you expected? What wacky symptoms did you experience? Or did you just coast through your 9 months with a healthy glow?

I admit the 2nd trimester of both my pregnancies was simply glorious but the 1st and the last for both were certainly NOT glorious!  Total nausea and lots of dry heaves for the first 15 weeks  ( Yes I’m that person that somehow would never have the relief of throwing up and instead would just dry heave – while driving the car, taking a walk, or well just anytime!)  Then come 3rd trimester. Uggh I profess that was sadly all about the constipation and the pre-term labor.  We’re talking regular contractions every 3 minutes starting at about 26 weeks. Crazy! The good news was it was just my body’s way to prep for labor instead of true labor that dilated me. Although Kenzie did pop out a good 4 weeks early!

Too much information right? That’s why I know this movie is going to be too hysterical because I suspect all these ladies will be dishing about all those things we think but didn’t always say!

Important note – This giveaway will END at 2:00 PM EST on Thursday May 10th, 2012. This is so we can contact winners ASAP to coordinate our showing on Monday May 14th, 2012 at King of Prussia United Artist Theater. Complete entry rules listed at bottom of this post. If I don’t hear from winners within 12 hours of notifying them, I will need to select another winner given the time table of this specific giveaway & movie screening. 

Please leave a comment below by 2:00 PM EST on Thursday May 10th, 2012 to enter to win. 

Disclosure: I am participating in a sponsored campaign hosted by Centrum Specialist® Prenatal multivitamins. I received compensation for this post. While all opinions stated are my own, I make no claims about Centrum Specialist® Prenatal as a product or its effectiveness.
