Last week, Elite Sports sent me one of their Medium Duffel Bag (in pink!) to try out. Elite Sports carries a wide range gear for MMA, karate, and other sports. My daughter is a Brown belt in karate and she also does kickboxing, so she was super excited to get a new bag to lug all of her stuff around in. And trust me, for a 9 year old she has a lot of gear. This bag is super lightweight and very well made with breathable mesh. There are several pockets on the side and openings on the ends to put shoes or a change of clothes. I was able to put get all of her gear to fit, including gloves, helmet, shoes, nunchaku, and more. It’s a bit of a tight fit, but it’s the perfect size bag for her right now. Once she outgrows it, I’ll get one of the large ones. Overall, this is an excellent bag and my daughter really likes it. We are off to Nationals this weekend, so we will probably be cramming more into it. This bag is available for $49.99. Browse for more gear at the Elite Sports ...
Product Review – Electric Epilator from Finishing Touch
Several weeks back, I was sent an electric epilator by Finishing Touch to try out and review. This laser epilator is rechargeable and has two different razor heads that can be used. I have been on the hunt for a good, affordable electric razor for some time now. First of all, when I first saw this it was billed as a ‘laser razor’. I took that to mean that it was one of those that helped stop the hard from growing eventually. However, all this razor has is a light that detects when the razor comes into contact with skin…meaning it will only run when it’s on your skin. I tried really hard to find ways to get this epilator to work. The foil covered head can’t cut anything. I don’t know if it because the blades are dull or if it’s because the hair cannot get through the foil. I let my legs get pretty stubbly, which isn’t fun. Nothing. Nada. Zip. The buzzer blade/head does work, but its not enough to make this razor worth getting. Overall, this epilator was somewhat disappointing. ...
Humor Is the Best Recipe for Happiness: 7 Funny Christmas Gifts You Can Give to Make People Laugh
There can be a lot of pressure around the holidays to find everyone the perfect gift without breaking the bank. While we are constantly bombarded with extravagant ideas for Christmas presents for our friends and loved ones, this push to buy more and more can end up overshadowing the real meaning of the holidays. Instead of focusing on the time we get to spend with our loved ones, on unwinding and appreciating what we have, we are left feeling like we need to strive even further to show our loved ones we care about them by spending money. Instead of letting yourself be swept up in the consumerism of Christmas, focus on exchanging small, meaningful gifts, setting a spending cap, and enjoying the time you get to spend with your family and loved ones. Some people struggle with spending caps, especially for people they don’t know exceptionally well. However, if your “giftee” is a person who likes to laugh (and who doesn’t?) this Christmas could be the perfect time to indulge in some ...
