Cat's Meow Toy Review

I have two shelter cats that mean the world to me. They are my babies! I used to spoil them by getting pricey toys from boutique pet shops. However, no matter what, they always had more fun with the box. Even the interactive toys that I played along with them (like the laser and feather stick) did not amuse them after a while.

I had exhausted every effort to keep my kitties occupied by themselves instead of having fun with actual toys. I figured I needed to face the fact that my curtains and furniture were now fair game at playtime. Every time my sister came over, she would a comment about the couch being scratched up. I was forced to admit that my cats were the reason I could not have nice things. Then she mentioned an infomercial she saw on TV for a toy she knew my cats would love. I laughed because I literally felt as though I had tried everything. She assured me the Cat’s Meow Toy was different.

Pros:

• Keeps the cats entertained for long periods of time.
• Great physical and mental exercise for cats of all ages.
• Quiet and not messy.
• Motor doesn’t quit even if the cat jumps and pounces on it.
• Battery Operated
• Nylon cover does not rip

Cons:

• Batteries not included.
• All their other toys have become door stops.

The Cat’s Meow is made of nylon fabric so it is durable and is tear resistant. Even during constant scratching and clawing during rough play, the fabric will not rip. In the middle is the motor that hold the wand. When turned on the wand waves create a rippling effect similar to that of a moving mouse. The actual motor is protected by the nylon covering. One of my favorite features of the Cat’s Meow Toy is it runs on batteries. This is especially great for me because I can keep the kitties happy and far away from my home office. 

I know they are happy and occupied in the other room while I get my work done. Most of the flooring in our house is hardwood but my mother has one for her cats and uses it on carpeting. I’ve even used it outside in the grass. The Cat’s Meow works on any flat surface. My cats play with this toy every day and they never get tired of it. They do get tired – it’s fantastic exercise!

I have read some reviews saying that the cat gets bored quickly. I have tried this on several cats, not just mine, and all the results have been the same. I brought it to a friend’s house who wanted to try it out. Her cats loved it. The only time I could imagine a cat getting bored with this is if a bird got in the house. My cats are indoor cats and my friend’s have outdoor cats. Both types of cats enjoy this product very much. It is equally stimulating for cats used to all types of environments.

I read another review stating that the product breaks easily. I have had my Cat’s Meow Toy since the cats were kittens. Their playing style has changed now that they are adult cats. They are much rougher and tougher on the product. The toy is still as good as new. We have had no problems with it breaking or not working to our 100% satisfaction. By the way, the toy has a 30 day money back guarantee, which made feel comfortable getting the toy in the first place. What other cat toys come with a guarantee? Not many. Unless your cat is actually a panther or cheetah, the product will not break.

I was a little worried when I heard the product uses AA batteries. I pictured myself constantly buying batteries, but that was not the case at all. The batteries last so long. The on/off switch makes it very easy to keep the batteries from being drained. Also, when the toy is on it uses very little energy from the battery. I think my electric toothbrush eats batteries faster.

Overall, this toy is fantastic and I would recommend it to anyone. When you order from the website they double the offer. All you have to do is pay for shipping. I have one in the living room and gave one to a friend. They make great gifts for cat lovers! When I turn it on, the cats come running. It’s so much fun to watch the cats play. They love it!

Ice Cream Magic Review

Ice Cream Magic not only solves the problem of the kidsbeing bored and hungry, but it allows you to make fresh ice cream from your own trusted ingredients. It only takes three minutes to do, and it is fun for the whole family. Ideal for a birthday party, gifts, or just for the fun of it, this ice cream maker will provide you with hours of entertainment.

Pros

• Ready in three minutes
• Makes any flavor you want
• Uses your own fresh ingredients
• Also makes sugar free or low fat versions
• No power source needed

Cons

• You’ll stop going out for ice cream
• The kids will want to make it every day

The benefits of having an Ice Cream Magic are obvious, but the cons are easy to handle. So what if the family wants to stay home for ice cream instead of going out to the local dairy stand? You’ll save money, and it’s a whole lot more fun to help make it yourself than simply buying it. If the kids want to make it every day, that’s okay too because you’ll know they are eating a sweet treat made from your own wholesome ingredients. That’s always a better choice when compared to the many processed snacks found on our market shelves.

Ice Cream Magic is easy to use. There are only three basic steps: add ice, add ingredients, and shake. Place ice cubes and water in the bottom of the ice cream cone shaped container. Add salt to start the deep freeze action. Next you will place the metal bowl over the ice mixture. This is where you can get creative. Add heavy cream and any flavor you desire. Screw on the top and start shaking. In about three minutes you’ll have your very own homemade ice cream.

For a more healthy option, use low fat cream or sugar free ingredients. The flavors you can make are as limited as your imagination. Make plain vanilla or add chocolate sauce for a traditional chocolate ice cream. Add your own fresh fruit for strawberry or banana flavored ice cream. You can even use Oreos, cookie dough, or chocolate chips for more variety. This is where the kids can let their creativity soar.

Ice Cream Magic is the perfect thing to use as a birthday party theme for children. It is hard to come up with party ideas for kids that are unique and different. Then you have to come up with games and crafts to keep the little ones busy, buy party favors, and make treats for everyone. With this one item you will have all of that covered. The kids will love making their own ice cream, and it will keep them busy. The result is a delicious treat they will be proud of having made themselves. Send each child home with the cone shaped maker and spoon as a favor, and they can make their own treat anytime they want.

Any family with younger children knows how bored the kids can get about half way through the summer. With no school to keep them occupied, they can quickly tire of their toys and games. This is the perfect time to pull out the Ice Cream Magic. Not only does it give them something fun to be entertained with, but they will have a refreshing treat for those hot July days.

If you’re in doubt about how good this product can really be, look at the reviews from happy customers who have already tried it. One mom reports “It’s so fun to make your own ice cream, and it works!” Another says “My daughter got two for her birthday, and my kids love this.” Ice Cream Magic does make a perfect gift for not only children but those of all ages. “Great gift for the entire family” is commonly heard from those who receive a set. It doesn’t have to be just for summer either. It would make a wonderful Christmasgift to help brighten up those long winter days.

Ice Cream Magic is available in two different sets. There is the Standard Pack that includes two ice cream cone shaped makers, one in a vanilla look and the other in chocolate. You’ll also get two ice cream cone shaped spoons to match and a recipe book to help you get started. This set costs $14.99 plus shipping and handling. If you order directly from the Ice Cream Magic website, they will include a second set free. The other set available is The Party Pack. This has a total of six cones, two chocolate, two vanillas, and two strawberries. There are also six matching spoons and the recipe book. The Party Pack is $39.99 plus shipping and handling.

Focus T25 Workout Review

Focus T25 is a short 25 minute workout that can actually give you the same results as a full 60 minute routine. You’ll feel better both emotionally and physically and look great too. This set of ten DVDs will show you how to burn calories and fat without wasting time you don't have on trips to the gym for longer workouts. It’s affordable, fast and fun.

Pros

• A full workout in 30 minutes
• Saves time and money at the gym
• Affordable
• Done in the privacy of your own home

Cons

• You’ll have no more excuses for not working out
• What to do with all that free time

Don’t worry about that free time. I’m sure you have all sorts of things to fill it with. Today’s world is demanding, and we all have busy schedules. Work comes first, followed by making sure the kids get what they need. Add to that the daily household chores, eating, and sleeping, and when are we supposed to squeeze in the time for a workout, let alone the travel time spent going to the gym each day? Shaun T has come up with the perfect solution. He is the same trainer that brought us the Insanity workout line, and now he has created an exercise program that will easily fit into anyone’s schedule.

The number one reason people don’t work out is that they don’t have enough time. Focus T25 gives you a hard impact workout that fits into just 25 minutes. Shaun T has taken the “rest” out of a good exercise program and left us with a workout that gets right down to the business of getting fit. These 25 minutes are equivalent to a traditional 50 minute routine when it comes to building muscle and losing fat. Done five days a week you will begin to see and feel the effects after just one week. Many have seen huge improvements after 50 days on the program.

Studies have proven that 30 minutes of exercise is just asgood at burning fat as a 60 minute workout, possibly better. The Focus T25 plan is an efficient workout that excludes the rest periods and cool down time. This is how 50 minutes of exercise can fit within a half hour and still give you the same results.

Focus T25 is affordable and fits into most budgets. The set includes ten DVDs and four free gifts. These gifts are created to further help you with your weight loss and muscle building goals. You get a Five Day Fast Track that gives you meal plans for workout days, 24/7 online support, the Stretch Workout DVD, and B-Lines. The Stretch Workout DVD guides you through stretching out the muscles after the five days of intense exercise, while B-Lines is a lightweight 15 pound resistance band that can be used with the workout routine for added benefits. The entire system can be purchased in three payments of $39.95 from their official website. They offer 100% satisfaction with their 30 day money back guarantee.

Reviews of this workout include positive statements such as “I thoroughly enjoy Focus T25 as a maintenance program.” Even if you are already in shape this DVD collection can help you maintain that status you’ve already achieved. Another customer describes it by saying “This is a good, fun workout program.” You’ll see results quickly as this review proves; “So the first week of Focus T25 is done and I’m hooked.”

You will be getting two workouts in this collection, the Alpha Cycle and the Beta Cycle. The Alpha Cycle is the foundation of the program. The five DVDs in this section include Cardio, Speed 1.0, Total Body Circuit, AB Intervals, and Lower Focus. Once you complete these, you may move on to the Beta Cycle. Here you’ll find the DVDs of Core Cardio, Speed 2.0, Rip and Circuit, Dynamic Core, and Upper Focus.

In addition to the DVDs and free gifts they have included tools that help you see results even quicker. One of these is the Quick Start Guide. This guide shows you how to achieve the best results by hitting the ground running. Pair it up with the Nutrition Guide. This has recipes for five meals each of the five days that are under five minutes to prepare. Use the Alpha Beta Workout Calendar as a tool to show which workout to do on each day.

The name Focus T25 says it all. You focus strictly on a hard workout for 25 minutes, five days a week to see results. The reason it works is simple. Workouts are fast paced and packed full of high intensity, dynamic moves. All are designed to produce maximum effectiveness while being efficient.

10 Minute Trainer Workout Review

A year ago I decided to join a gym with great expectations for a body transformation. I wanted to get in shape for my upcoming wedding. However, between my generally busy life and planning the wedding, I never found the time. I threw away money on a gym membership that I never used. I did try to stay in shape doing things on my own. I jumped rope in our courtyard and jogged. However, on rainy days or when the pollen count was too high. I could not do my workout outside.

I knew I needed to exercise more and it was depressing me that I did not have a fitness regimen in place. My upcoming wedding was making me anxious and I was feeling disappointed that I was so out of shape. All my life I had been a gymnast but my body looked nothing like one before my wedding. I wanted my athletic, toned body back! I looked into some free exercise programs at my community center but they were mostly dance classes for seniors.

I needed something, but I couldn't motivate myself to exercise with geriatrics. Besides, Zumba type dance classes were not for me because I am completely uncoordinated. I knew right away I need another solution. I searched at local department stores and large bookstores for exercise DVDs. Some of them were way too expensive. They did not even come with a guarantee. What if I didn’t like them? I did not have a lot of time toworkout let alone search for a workout. On top of everything else, the moves in the DVDs looked difficult and I did not have a lot of space in my apartment for the big jumps and intense movements. I needed an exercise regimen that would give me results without taking up a lot of my time. I had no time to waste; the wedding was in six months.

One day I saw an infomercial for Tony Horton's 10 Minute Trainer Workout. I wasn’t sure at first. Really? Only 10 minutes? That sounded to good. I could do that before work. Is that really all it takes? I wondered. The infomercial seemed legit, but I decided to read some reviews and ask friends. I heard nothing but great things. The price for everything the workout included was really good. I felt reassured nothing that there was a 60 day money back guarantee. The Beach Body company sounded familiar to me. Their other programs had created success stories for some of my coworkers. I could not wait any longer. I ordered the 10 Minute Trainer. It came very quickly.

Pros:

• The workouts are easy to follow. No tricky moves!
• It came with six Free gifts
• Excellent customer service
• Incredible value at a great price.
• I looked fantastic for my wedding.
• Money back guarantee

Cons:

• Other guys started proposing to me because I looked so good.
• Choosing which DVD to do each day was difficult because I loved them all.

Along with exercises, the 10 Minute Trainer came with recipes. They were easy and delicious. My fiancé loved them! He was eating better and getting in shape now too. I was a good influence on him. The program came with a nutrition plan and workout cards that I followed very closely all the way until my wedding day. I actually did a 10 minute workout the morning of my wedding! I was in love with working out. It was a great stress reliever, actually.

Never in my life had I enjoyed working out so much. The 10 Minute Trainer was so detailed that I felt like I had my very own trainer but without spending a fortune. Best of all, I could workout any time. My work schedule was crazy so it would have been hard to fit long workouts in. But with a obligation of only 10 minutes, I could always squeeze in the time to workout. The workouts helped relieve some stress of the upcoming wedding. I needed something for me to relax– all that family in one place! 

After doing the 10 Minute Trainer most days a week, I noticed I was much leaner. I also looked and felt stronger. I actually had to get my wedding dress tailored one last time about a week before the wedding. I love the 10 Minute Trainer so much that I even brought it with us on our honeymoon. It was perfect to do in the hotel. It just feels so good to be healthy. The 10 Minute Trainer is sold on the Beachbody website. There are three types of packages that can be purchased. When I was first starting out, I bought the Base kit but now I've moved up to the Complete Workout.

The 10 Minute Trainer is great for a lot of reasons, but one of my favorite things about this exercise program is that the workouts are realistic to follow. I never had to starve or drastically diet and 10 minutes actually meant 10 minutes of exercise. I never felt like I was going to get hurt doing the exercise. Don’t get me wrong, I definitely felt sore! But it was a good sore. I knew I was working hard and it felt good. I saw results quickly and in less time than I ever would have at the gym.

I love 10 Minute Trainer and tell all my friends to try it. After all, I’m a walking advertisement for how well it works.

PackIt Freezable Lunch Bag Review

Designed to keep food contents cold for longer periods of time, the PackIt freezable lunch bag boasts that it keeps contents cold for up to 10 hours. The cooler keeps food cold thanks to a patented eco-gel which is a part of the liner. The bag itself is actually stored in the freezer, so no ice or gel packs are required.

Click Here for PackIt's Limited Time Best Deal

Pros:

• Easy to use and pack lunch without extra cooling packs
• Keeps food cold
• Available in many trendy designs so you can pack your lunch fashionably

Cons:

• Doesn't keep food cold as long as states
• Heavier than other lunch bags

A fairly new and interesting concept in the world of lunch bags, the PackIt freezable lunch bag makes packing your lunch convenient because you don't have to worry about packing ice packs or gel packs. Instead, the cooling packs are built right into the bag itself. The bag also boasts that it keeps food cold for longer periods of time than other lunch bags, with foods staying cold for up to 10 hours. The PackIt bag also folds up when it is empty for easy storage until it is ready to be used again. The bag is also good for the environment because it is PVC/lead free, non-toxic and safe for the earth. Even better, the bag encourages reuse instead of plastic or throw away lunch bags and can easily be cleaned by washing it by hand.

With a huge selection of colors and patterns available, this lunch bag has a style that can fit anyone's personal taste and style. Several trendy patterns including small and large polka dots, geometric designs and even robots are available. Bright, vivid colors like red, aqua and poppy are available. For a classic look, you can also order the bag in black or grey. With the simplistic, contemporary design and the great fabric styles, this bag will have you looking good with little to no effort.

The main advantage of using this bag is that it's easy to pack and you don't have to worry about remembering ice or gel packs. Plus, when you're done using it you can fold it up again for compact storage until you need to use it again. This is nice because after I've used this for lunch at work, I can fold it up and stick it right in my purse to take home. I don't have to worry about forgetting my lunch bag at work like I often do, and it isn't yet another bag I have to lug out of work with me at the end of the day. The bag is also really to clean if I get any spills in it.

To clean it, I usually just wipe it with a damp rag right after finishing up the dishes at night. This keeps the bag clean and fresh. Being able to store the bag right in the freezer is also nice, especially if you take a lot of frozen leftovers or entrees to work with you. I pack my lunch at night and store it in the freezer. In the morning, all I have to do is grab the lunch bag when I'm on my way out the door. With other lunch bags, I'd often forgo taking my lunch because I didn't have time to pack everything in the morning before leaving, and I couldn't store the entire bag in the freezer overnight.

The main drawback of this bag is that it does not keep food cold for as long as it claims. If I'm not keeping the bag in the freezer during the day, I can store food in int for about four hours and it's still cold. However, it doesn't keep food cold much longer than that, and many reviewers of the bag say that if left for 10 hours, the food inside is room temperature. The bag is great for taking lunch to work. Even if you don't have access to a freezer at work, the bag is still probably good use for keeping food cold at your desk for about four hours. However, if you're hoping to keep food cold fora longer period of time and don't have access to a freezer or refrigerator, this may not be the bag for you.

The other main drawback of this bag is that it's a bit heavier than other lunch bags. Since the cooler part of the bag it built into the bag itself, it isn't as lightweight as other lunch bags. Given the added convenience of not having to carry an ice pack or gel pack, this isn't a big deal for me. This is something to keep in mind when considering whether you should purchase this bag, however.

The PackIt freezable lunch bag is available for $19.99 plus $11.90 for shipping and handling. Right now, customers who purchase PackIt directly from the manufacturer's website can receive a free 30 day healthy lunch planner and a second PackIt for free with an additional $4.95 for shipping and handling.
