Win an EcoFlo Portable Fridge/Freezer from The Money Pit

It’s already getting hot in my little area of Pennsylvania. It’s 82 today but yesterday it was 86. We’ve already had the grill fired up for Memorial Day and soon we will again for the 4th of July. We’re not camping people but I have a bunch of friends and family who are.

The Money Pit podcast has a sweepstakes right now where they are giving away a EcoFlo Glacier portable fridge/freezer and prizes of EcoFlo River 2 portable power station. I think both of these would be great to have on hand for a camping trip, beach trip, or even just a summer outdoor get-together. Heck it might even come in handy for power outages.

The EcoFlo portable fridge/freezer alone is valued at $1099 and the Ecoflo portable power station is valued at $599

So I had to read through the rules on this one. There are 3 winners. The grand prize winner gets the portable freezer/fridge and 2 other winners each get one of the power generators

This sweepstakes ends June 30, 2023

Calypso Summer Sweepstake

I realize not everyone is active on facebook. Let me know if you want to see me share more sweepstakes on LuvSavingMoney.com

Calypso Summer Sweepstakes

This sweeps has 700 winners that will win a Calypso cooler backpack. Ends 6/27/23 one time entry (other than referrals)

I’m gonna be honest, I forget about Calypso drinks then they have a cool sweeps like this and I think, boy I haven’t had one of those in a while. The Island Wave Lemonade sounds amazing. I wonder if I can find it in one of my local stores. I live in a small town area so we don’t always get the newest flavors right away.

Calypso offers different flavors of lemonades, limeades, and teas. If you’re not sure if you can find them near you they have a product locator on the Calypso website.

Which flavor would you like to try? Do you already enjoy Calypso drinks? Which one is your favorite?

Don’t forget to get your entries in for the sweepstakes before June 27, 2023.

Possibly the Perfect Headphones for Summer – Mojawa Run Plus Waterproof

There are so many different ways to listen to music on the go. I didn’t realize how many ways there really were until the last month or so. I mean you have earbuds but you have wireless, wired, and you got the earbuds with the hooks that go over your ears. Then you have over-the-ear headphone and on-ear headphones. Then there bone conduction headphones and even air conduction headphones. Then you get into options like “sound proof”, “water resistant”, headphones with controls on them, just so many options.

I was recently approached with a newer bone conduction headphone that sounds truly different. Mojawa Run Plus bone conduction headphones have a lot of neat features that will make these perfect for summer fun and sweaty workouts.

Other than these bone conduction headphones being super waterproof (which is a huge plus for the summer) They also happen to have 32G of storage to store your music. The idea, if you’re swimming, running, playing a game of volleyball, etc you probably don’t want to or can’t have your phone with your. In this way you can load your fave music right to the headphones and leave your phone in a safe space without fear of it getting splashed or full of sand.

With controls right on the headphones themself you can adjust volume or switch play modes. When fully charged these headphones have 8 hours of battery life. But maybe your friend asks you to go for a hike and you realized “darn it, my headphones are almost dead” guess what, these headphones are fast charging. Only 5 min of charge needed for 90 min of play time. I think that’s awesome.

If you love getting your music to sound just right the Mojawa Run Plus has an app with smart EQ settings. So you’re rock, rap, country, techno, whatever will sound like you want it to.

Mojawa Run Plus will be available in black, white, orange, and blue. These are an upgraded version of the Mojo2 if you’re familiar with that model.

Here’s a summary of all the features of the Mojawa Run Plus.

IP68 Waterproof: 2M underwater.
Touch control: touch to switch playing modes, slide to adjust the volume.
Bluetooth and 32GB of Storage: either way, hands-free.
8 Hours of battery life & Fast charging: 5-min charging for 90-min playing time.
Patented Mojawa broadband tactile motor: stronger, louder, better sound.
Double springs design inside: Stability enhanced. Anti-drop.
App available with smart EQ settings.
Super lightweight & Secure fit: enjoy music in comfort, never fall out.

I received a sample of the Mojawa Run Plus in black. It comes with a charging cord, ear plugs, and storage bag.

I used these while out cutting down trees and weed eating in my yard. I love that I can hear the music but also hear what’s going on around me. It took some getting used to for me to learn to use the controls but once I got it, it was nice to not have to pull my phone out of my pockets to change the volume or answer a call.

The sounds is pretty good for bone conduction headphones. With the added features of the swim capability, 32 GB of storage, 8 hr battery life, and still being able to hear what is going on around you, these are the perfect headphones for the summer or outdoor chores.

100% Recyclable Shoes – Casual Comfort with Zebra Oasis

Shoes are great. Most of us have at least a couple pair. But did you know most shoes can’t be recycled? Most of our worn out shoes end up being burned in landfills because the materials can’t be easily separated for proper recycling. So they either hang out in landfills or are burned which aren’t ideal for the environment either.

So what can we do? Most of us needs shoes right?

Zebra Oasis

Zebra Oasis seems to have it figured out. Every step considered to make their shoes better for the environment. Here are some ways Zebra Oasis is keeping the environmental impact in the forefront of their shoes:

100% Truly recyclable with their patented “R-ring” design to easily separate materials when it’s time to retire your shoes
Recycled CO-2 injected soles – TPU foam makes their foam fully recyclable without using extra chemicals typically used in the foaming process
Hemp upper part – the upper part of the shoes is made from hemp. Making these shoes: breathable, comfortable, sustainable, and comforable
NO DYES! – Zebra Oasis is committed to using natural materials. No dyes are used. Which also means when you wash your shoes they maintain their color

You can watch how the R-ring works to recycle your shoes here:

But Are They Going To Wear?

Zebra Oasis shoes perform well in temps ranging from -10 to 60 degrees Celsius. The shoes are very flexible . Zebra Oasis shoes also come with a 1 year warranty. Comfortable enough to wear all day but durable enough to keep up with you.

My Thoughts After A Month of Wear

When I read about them before I received them I was wondering about the whole “R-ring” thing. Would I feel it in the soul of the shoe? If I do too much walking, dancing around, etc in my shoes could I accidently start pulling it? The answer to those questions is NO. I wore these while out running errands, to the grocery store, to the warehouse store while hubby and I were dishwasher shopping, and more. I didn’t even think about the R-Ring. It’s more of a strong thread so you can’t feel it at all.

These shoes are so comfortable. Honestly, these might be one of the most comfortable shoes I have for casual wear. And I’m a tennis shoe girl. The casual design make them great to wear with just about anything: jeans, shorts, capris, skorts, whatever. The soft hemp uppers made these shoes instantly wearable. There’s no break-in period or “getting used to them”. You can take them right out of the box and head out the door.

I have a feeling these will be my daily pair for the spring and summer. The light, breathability of the shoe will be nice. Though I was wearing them February and March in Pennsylvania too so…

I love that these shoes are machine washable. I rarely can keep white shoes white. (They actually refer to this color as beige but I can’t keep beige shoes beige either) It will be so much easier for me to just be able to throw them in the washer when they start looking dingy.

A Little More About Zebra Oasis

Zebra Oasis is a premium lifestyle brand dedicated to sustainability. I think they hit the mark with these shoes. They have a goal to provide high quality foot wear with low environmental impact. I love that!

These shoes will be available in whole sizes. I typically wear a US 7.5 so to be safe I requested a US 8 to review. After wearing them for a few days I probably could have gone either way. There was definitely some wiggle room in the 8s for me but I typically like to wear socks of some type with my tennis shoes that that was good for me.

These shoes are expected to be available to purchase in April. I think it’s no coincidence that April happens to be Earth Month. So when you’re considering making your earth friendly changes, think about your shoes and consider these super comfortable Zebra Oasis shoes.

These shoe will also be available in gray.

You can find and purchase Zebra Oasis shoes on Outdoor Masters website.
