Crazy Dog T-shirts Put the Cool in Back to School

**I received a tshirt from CrazyDogTshirts.com in order to complete an honest review. No other compensation has been received**

I own a couple Crazy Dog T-shirts myself. I love some of the vintage shirts they have, shirts from some of my fave movies, and funny shirts.

Crazy Dog T-Shirts started in 2004 by founder Bill Kingston while attending Ithaca College. He started selling a few designs as part of a final project for an e-commerce class. The orders continued even after college so he kept with it. The company has grown since then with 15 full-time employees and 2 Part-Time.
80% of the designs they sell are printed in house. The others, they work with partners like Junk Food and David & Goliath to give you the best selection at good prices.

Since I already have a few shirts I had purchased in the past from Crazy Dog, I know that they’re good quality t-shirts. I wear my shirts frequently because I think they’re a fun way to show my personality and sense of humor. My son saw this shirt and just had to have it.

It says “Scuba Steve Scuba Squad” If you’re not able to read it. Pop quiz, do you know which movie this shirt is from? My son loves this shirt. He wants to wear it almost every day. In fact I had to sneak it out of his bedroom to wash it. I know, boys, right? When we were looking at the shirts, my oldest son saw a bunch he liked too. They were laughing and pointing out different shirts. They like them so much I told them I’d get them each a couple (as appropriate for school) for their back to school clothes shopping. They were super excited about that.

Crazy Dog TShirts are soft and durable. They have a little room for give which is great for me with my 3 growing boys. I’ve snuck his Scuba Steve shirt into the wash a few times and it doesn’t seem to have shrunk or faded.

Ok did you guess what my son’s shirt is from. The movie “Big Daddy” with Adam Sandler. The boy in the movie, his favorite hero was Scuba Steve. Did you get it?

Back To School Snack Idea with PB Crave

**I received the below mentioned products in order to complete an honest review. Any opinions expressed are my own. No other compensation has been received**

PB Crave is natural peanut butter with a selection of tasty favor blends. Razzle Dazzle, Choco Choco, Coco Banana, and Cookie Nookie are a tasty treat that you’ll want to put on everything.

I’m so excited that PB Crave is now available at most Walmarts. My Walmart doesn’t have them yet but I keep looking. Everyone in my family loves them, well except the baby, she can’t have any yet.

PB Crave uses natural premium ingredients in each of their 4 flavors. They also use natural US grown peanuts in their products. The CoCo Banana flavor for instance uses natural peanut butter with bananas, chocolate and a touch of wild honey. They do not use high fructose corn syrup, no hydrogenated oils, no trans fat, cholesterol free, gluten free, kosher certified, and no sugar added. Phew that’s a list! As if all that doesn’t sound good enough a portion of the proceeds from the sale of PB Crave peanut butter goes to Project Peanut Butter which is a non-profit organization that focuses on treating malnourished children.

Ok so I thought I’d share with you an idea for a fun, easy, tasty, and mobile after school snack for the kiddos. This also works great to pack in a lunch for pre-school for the little ones. I call this a PB Crave roll-up.

What you need:

-a piece of bread (can also use a tortilla if you prefer)
-butter knife
-rolling pin
-your fave PB Crave flavor

This is so easy, the kids can even do it. You can actually add more to it if you want, bananas and what not but I’ll show you the basic idea.

Take your rolling pin and flatten the bread with the rolling pin (If you’re using a tortilla, skip this step)

Spread your fave PB Crave flavor over the bread. If you like this is wear you can also add things into it like chopped up bananas, raspberries, crushed graham crackers, etc.

Roll it up, the peanut butter helps it stick so it doesn’t unroll.

Tada, there you go. See I promised you easy right? My kids love these. They’re great for a snack. Also good for toddlers and pre-schools that can bite and chew but won’t necessarily eat a whole sandwich. They’re not messy because the peanut butter isn’t leaking out the sides and it’s convenient because little ones can eat it while their mobile and the bigger kids can eat it while they work on their homework. They pack well into a lunch bag or lunch box too.

Another good after school snack with PB Crave is apples and PB Crave peanut butter. Just put a dallop of PB Crave peanut butter on a dessert plate and cut some apples into slices. You can also core an apple then fill the center with PB Crave and make that an on-the-go snack too. With having 4 kids and the 2 oldest being in every sport they can be in just about, I’m always about on-the-go healthy snacks.

You can find PB Crave at most Walmarts and Cost Plus World Market. You can also buy it online on the PB Crave website , on OpenSky (Recommended by Andrew Zimmern), and on Amazon:

Get Ready For Back To School With Lovable Labels

**I received a Lovable Labels Back to School pack as part of their Love Bug blogger program. I also have a chance to earn free products when someone uses my coupon code**

It’s August and it will be time for the kids to go back to school before we know it. I know I’ll be taking my kids either this week or next to get some clothes, shoes, and a back pack for school. Let’s face it, even with deals, if you have several kids to by for (or even one) it can get expensive. Make sure you label your child’s things with easy to read Lovable Labels, they have a label for just about everything.

I got a Lovable Labels Back to School pack for my youngest son, my baby boy will be starting pre-school in the fall..sniff sniff. They require spare clothes, backpacks, toys, etc that come to the building with the child to be labeled. This is an easy and effective way to make sure I get that done.

Lovable Labels Back to School Pack includes:
–30 Multi-Purpose Labels
–80 Slimline Labels
–12 Shoe Labels
–48 Press N’ Stick Clothing DOTS
–12 Square Labels
–2 Mini Metal Tags

All labels are dishwasher & microwave safe AND washer & Dryer safe. There are also 8 new fun designs to choose from in the Back to School Packs. I let my son choose his design and he picked “Ahoy Ye Matey” design. Pirates, love it.

One of my personal faves is the Press n’ Stick Clothing DOTS. They stick to fabric and can go through the washer and dryer. You don’t have to worry about them coming off. Great for the kiddos jackets, spare clothes for pre-school, etc. If the article I want to label has a tag, I like to stick them right on the tag so it’s easy for someone to spot. If not I just stick it to the inside of the back of a shirt or jacket where a tag might be.

The slimline designs are discreet and would be good to put on a book cover or even your favorite writing tool or a ruler.

You can also save 10% until Sept 1, 2013 with my coupon code: AngieLB2

Bear Grylls Get Out Alive Season Finale Aug. 26 (giveaway)

My oldest son, my husband, and I all enjoy watching Bear Grylls survival show Man vs. Wild but we had not seen Bear Grylls “Get Out Alive” show yet, have you? The gist of the show goes like this:

In #GetOutAlive, 10 teams of 2 compete to survive in the beautiful New Zealand wilderness with Bear Grylls as their guide. The teams are faced with various survival tasks as they battle the terrain, mountains, gorges, glaciers, rainforests, rivers and rapids. Each week, one team is eliminated, and the last remaining duo will win $500,000!

Sounds like it could be a lot of fun. $500,000, now that’s an awesome prize. The season finale will be Aug. 26 on NBC and you can watch “Get Out Alive” until then every Monday at 9/8 c on NBC.

In anticipation of the unmissable season finale, Partnershub has worked to create a fun new app for the show. In the app you can see some cool pics from the show, take the quiz to find out if you would “get out alive”, and get to know the contestants from the show.

To go along with the show and the season finale, I have a Bear Grylls prize to give away to one lucky Luv Saving Money readers.

Purex 31 Days of Fun Sweepstakes a new prize every day

**I completed this post as a Purex Insiders blogger. I have a chance to win a gift card for this post**

Every day in August you can enter to win some great prizes from Purex in their 31 Days of Fun Sweepstakes. Each day brings a new prize and a new opportunity to win. Check out the offerings!

There are $10,000 in prizes to be won. So don’t wait, go enter: http://insiders.purex.com/31DaysofFun?id=56

Of all the prizes in the calendar, which 3 would you want to win most? Me, a Back to School Shopping Spree would definitely come in handy. My oldest is starting middle school this year, my 9 yr old son is starting 4th grade, and my 4 year old is starting pre-school in the fall. Lots of back to school shopping to do. My second choice would be the Family Bike set giveaway. My boys all have bikes but I don’t. My oldest son’s bike though has seen it’s better days. I’d love to win some nice new bikes for all of us to get out and get some exercise as a family. I think I’d get one of those bike trailers though so when she’s old enough, my youngest can go along too. Third choice is hard because really I’d be happy to win any of these prizes but I think maybe the grocery giveaway on the 29th. A family of 6 with 3 growing boys can really go through the groceries.

Because I’m a Purex Insider and was picked to help spread the word about this awesome sweepstakes, Purex is also offering a prize just for 1 lucky Luv Saving Money readers
