I have not yet had an occasion to use the free sample of the Orajel Single Dose Cold Sore Treatment that I received from Smiley360. But over the Thanksgiving holiday, my granddaughter thought she was starting to get a cold sore so I gave her one of the two sample doses to try. She thought it definitely helped because it numbed the area which in turn led to her not feeling the need to touch it. I have since spoken to her and she was happy to report that she thought the Orajel "scared away" the cold sore.
Ok, so I am an old housewife and throughout the years I have formed a lot of opinions. I am really not that hard to please. I just expect things to work as they are advertised to work. I try my best to operate in a competent manner and expect others and products to do the same. I will be sharing my honest opinion and reviews of different products that I have purchased and used or received for product testing. You will get the truth here!

I received my Dr. Scholl's massaging gel insoles from BzzAgent to test and review.
At first I inserted them into my walking athelic shoes but I have visting grandchildren and haven't gotten a chance to take my daily walk.
So I decided to put them in a pair of sandals that I bought some time ago but rarely ware because they are not comfortable.I then proceeded to take the grandchild to town to pick out her own birthday present. This definely involved a lot walking and I was very glad that I had used the Dr. Scholl's massaging gel insoles because they really did make the uncomfortable sandals much more comfortable and a long day of walking painless.

Schwarzkopf got2b POWER'ful Volumizing Styling Powder
For many years I got my hair permed for body and volume. But I eventually developed an allergy to the permanent solution and had to stop. And that is when the search began for a product that would give my fine, limp hair some height and volume.
When I received my got2b POWER'ful volumizing styling powder made by Schwarzkopf from BzzAgent, I was anxious to see the results. On the package it states, shake a small amount of the powder in your palm, rub your hands together, distribute on the roots of your hair. I followed directions and did indeed have more volume in 10 seconds. But not dramatically more. To be fair, I am probably not a good person to conduct this test because I have quite short hair.
The second time I tried got2b Power'ful volumizing styling powder, I followed the tip for an extra volume boost and sprinkled some of the powder directly on the roots of my hair.
First of all, I would like to state that I regularly use the Schwarzkopf Thicker Fuller Hair Shampoo and Conditioner and it is my favorite shampoo and conditioner.
I would perhaps use the got2b POWER'ful volumizing styling powder occasionally for a fast lift when I was in a hurry. But I did not care for the feeling of the product on my hair. I felt it dulled the shine and made my scalp itch somewhat. It also made it impossible to run my fingers or even a brush through my hair.
For my personal choice, I will continue to use a mousse type product for volume.

Rite Aid
It seems that Rite Aid has a new message "With Us, It's Personal". Well, when it concerns me and my money, "With Me, It's Personal".
Watch your receipts carefully people, and don't trust the clerk when you ask if you received your buy one, get one free deals. They will say yes and then when you get home, which is some distance away, you see that you didn't.
You will also find that they often say buy one, get one free, but then there is ONLY one of the item on the shelf.
Rite Aid, this is my warning to you..............start stocking your shelves with the advertised sale items. And beware, cheat me out of my money again and you will lose me as a customer forever.

Incompetent Company Called Safeway
Well, I must begin this blog with my weekly complaint about Safeway grocery stores. In particular the one that I am stuck having to use is the community that I currently live in.
Every week I drive into town to do my weekly shopping. I have been drinking Pepsi Cola for basically most of my life excluding an occasional drink of water.
Every single week, I must find a clerk and send them back into the storeroom to look for Diet Pepsi. Why is it so hard for them to keep their shelves stocked? The empty space is there waiting for the Diet Pepsi....but no one in Safeway feels that they should make it convenient for me me to purchase them.
I could rant on and on about how much I dislike Safeway but I would consider saying a kind word about them if I ever once can find Diet Pepsi on the shelves.
