BeFrugal offers 4% Cash Back at Old Navy and Other Back To School Favorites

**This post does contain referral links.  Regardless I only post legitimate offers from trusted sites**

I totally took advantage of the $10 jeans sale Old Navy had last week for my kids for school (then again, I always do).  I had to buy for 3 boys for back to school this year so every dollar saved is good in my book.  Of course the adult jeans were $19 and my oldest son is in adult sizes but it’s still a good deal.  Anywho I got my oldest son 2 pair of jeans, my youngest son 2 pair of jeans, and my middle son 1 pair (because I had already bought him a pair on sale over the summer.)  My oldest son actually picked out one pair that were on sale for $17 for some reason so Yay!  Old Navy offers free shipping on orders over $50 which of course I had $66 to be exact plus I used BeFrugal.com and earned 4% cash back on my purchase (more then some other cash back sites).  So I earned $2.64 back on my purchase.  So for me it was like getting 5 pair of Old Navy jeans for a total of $63. 36.  So I’m happy.

If you missed the $10 jeans sale at Old Navy, no worries.  I just check the site.  They still have some kids jeans on sale for $10 and some adults jeans for $19 so it’s not too late.

Need A Quiet Fan That Still Does The Job, Ozeri Has a Great One

**I received the below mentioned at no cost in order to complete an honest review.  This post also contains amazon affiliate links**

I’ve had the pleasure of trying a couple Ozeri products.  When the fan in my son’s room broke I knew I needed to get him a new one.  I wanted something that preferably didn’t have the rotating blades since he’s only 4 yrs old.  I wanted something that wasn’t too noisy because, well, it’s his bedroom but I also wanted it to do the job.

Ozeri Ultra 42 inch Wind Fan – Adjustable Oscillating Tower Fan with Noise Reduction Technology was a good option.  When it was shipped to me there was a few pieces to put together but it was just the base that was in pieces because you have the option to use the extender or just the base.  It also came with the batteries for the remote and the hardware you needed to put it together. It only took me about 10 minutes to put it together and figure out the settings thanks to the easy to ready instruction booklet.

The set up was pretty easy.  You can choose to use the extender to make it higher or just the base if you want a sturdier base of support.  I first put it together with the extender just to see how it looked and worked.

It’s a nice looking tower fan with a digital display.  There are a lot of options with this fan.  You it can be static or oscillating.  There are 3 different modes to choose from as far as the breeze goes including sleep, nature, and normal.  There is also a night mode which dims all the LCD icons on the screen.  It has a remote control so you can use it beside your bed or from the couch.  When you don’t need the remote there is a spot for it in the case on top of the fan where there are also button for all the settings on the fan as well.

There is also a timer option so if you only want it to run for a certain amount of time then shut off, you can do that.

This fan is surprisingly quiet even on the highest setting.  Making this perfect to put in my son’s room.  Though I will be taking the extender off to put it in his room because it seems a little more sturdy without the extender on it. We tried it in the living room for a couple days.  Our living room is a decent size and you could feel the breeze of the fan throughout the room.

Here’s a fun fact about these fans, they were actually designed for 5 star resorts!

The Ozeri Ultra 42 inch wind fan is on sale on Amazon for $99.95 (normally $149.95)

MIRA Digital Bathroom Scale on sale on Amazon

**I received the below mentioned product in exchange for an honest review.  No other compensation has been received.  This post does contain an Amazon affiliate link**

Some of you may have seen my post about starting a 28 day blogger challenge to try to lose inches.  Since having my 4th child I put on a few more pounds.  One of the requirements for the challenge is to keep track of my weight among other stats. Conveniently I had the opportunity to review the MIRA Digital Bathroom Scale with Handle , Large Display, 400 lb capacity

This scale is sleek looking and light weight.  It has a convenient steel plated handle.  I like to keep mine under my microwave stand in the kitchen so I can just grab hold of the handle to pull it out from underneath when I need it.
The scale came with the 4 AAA batteries it needs to run.  There was no set up required with this scale other than installing the batteries which was easy peasy.  It tells you your weight automatically when you step on the scale which is nice because the old one I had you had to step on the corner to kind of wake it up wait until it read “0.00” then step on it.  Not this one, just step on it and it tells you your weight.  
The digital display, larger numbers, and contrast make it easy to read as well..  The scale can be set to kilos too if you are used to kilos.

The surface is smooth and easy to clean.  I really like this scale and it’s on sale on Amazon now for $24.99.

Dreamworks Animations Turbo in Theaters and Soundtrack Available now

**I did not receive any compensation for this post.  This post does contain an affiliate link for Amazon**

If you have kids then you’ve probably heard of Dreamworks Animation’s TURBO movie that’s in theaters now. Turbo opened July 17, A cute underdog movie that has a very cool all star cast which includes names like Ryan Reynolds, Snoop Dogg, Bill Hader, Maya Rudolph, and Samuel L. Jackson.  I know this movie is on my boys’ “I wanna see” list.

Here is a brief synopsis of the movie:

“TURBO is a high-velocity 3D comedy about a snail who dares to dream big – and fast.  After a freak accident infuses him with the power of super-speed, Turbo kicks into overdrive and embarks on an extraordinary journey to achieve the seemingly impossible: competing in the world’s fastest race, the Indianapolis 500.  With the help of his tricked-out streetwise snail crew, this ultimate underdog puts his heart and shell on the line to prove that no dream is too big, and no dreamer too small. The soundtrack for Turbo was executive produced by Relativity Music Group’s Jason Markey as well as Bob Bowen and Ryan Kavanaugh.”
