Cymax Stores: Review

Photobucket


If you have read my blog, you know I love Cymax Stores! They are a great company that offers alot of nice furniture at great prices. I also love learning the back stories of how companies become successful & how they got their start. I recently read the interesting story that Ecommercetimes.com published featuring Cymax Stores

The article, in part, mentions how this year, Cymax Stores will bring in about $48 million in revenue with 99 percent of that coming from customers in the United States. Wow, I find that very impressive!

They even have a profile on Crunchbase.com which is a free database of technology companies, people, and investors.

Cymax Stores was also named one of the world’s Top 500 online businesses by Internet Retailer. That says alot about how great this company is.

These are just some of the brands Cymax Stores offers:


Weber, Pulaski Furniture Corp., Dream On Me, SONAX, Atlantic and many more

Also, check out their Holiday Sale going on right now on their site. They even have a Vintage Play Kitchen set in red for that future cook in your life :)

I was pleased to see that Cymax Stores offers FREE SHIPPING (on most items) and NO sales tax(except VA)! I love companies that offer free shipping!

My Cheap Husband

My Cheap Husband

Written by Sonny Quinn

I love my husband very much, but even I can admit that he is cheap. Sometimes I have a lot of respect for his frugality and how it has helped us get ahead. We’ve been able to save a lot of money and pay down a lot of our debt. Even though I know he is smart with money, there are some areas where I think he takes it too far. I know that it’s important to save, but I also think it’s acceptable to spend on certain things. We were dead broke when we got married, so I was willing to do without so that eventually we could have a nice life. We didn’t even have internet or cable at home, and we hardly ever ate out or splurged on extras. Lately we’ve been doing better financially, so I think it’s time to bring some of the luxuries back into our life. He fought me on it, but when I found these direct tv des moines deals he had a hard time arguing with me. I was so excited that we were finally going to have all of the channels I’ve been missing for a few years!

Review and Giveaway: FRS Healthy Energy (5 Winners!) *ENDS 11/20*(CLOSED)



I have never been a person that liked to take traditional energy drinks due to the bad things I have heard about them increasing your heart rate, etc., so I was REALLY excited when I was given the chance to review an all natural energy drink.

My fave FRS product was the chews. I liked them the best because they were so convenient and portable. They helped give me that extra energy boost I needed late in the afternoon.

The enhanced Ready-To-Drink beverage in the Citrus Pomegranate flavor was DELICIOUS! It was pre-mixed in an 11.5 ounce can.

I also tried the powder in a citrus flavor that you pour right into your bottled water. With just 10 calories each, they’re also the lowest calorie way to get energy if you’re watching your waistline.


Read more below about their great products:


ABOUT FRS® Health Performance:

So what makes FRS different and why it appeals to moms (and parents):
- Instead of using caffeine and sugar, the energy drinks and chews are fueled by Quercetin, a powerful antioxidant found in foods like blueberries, red apples and grapes, that works by naturally triggering your cells’ ability to produce sustained energy, so it’s a healthy alternative.
- Amidst a sea of beverages filled with high levels of sugar and high fructose corn syrup linked to America’s obesity epidemic, FRS® remains committed to providing sustained, natural energy with low calorie and low sugar options.

You can visit the website at http://www.frs.com

One of FRS top mom advocates is Christie Rampone, the 35-year-old mother of two who has served as captain of the U.S. National Women’s Soccer team. Dubbed as the “First Lady of Soccer” and the “Ultimate Sports Mom,” Rampone has joined the FRS® Healthy Performance Team as an FRS® Ambassador to inspire others to fuel their best with the healthy benefits of FRS products. Most recently FRS® was discovered by Nick Cannon, star of “America’s Got Talent” and father of two.
