SentrySafe Breast Cancer

31 Oct

The way life moves it’s easy to get wrapped up in what is going on in life and gotten really comfortable by saying “it won’t happen to me” when we hear about something happening to our friends, family, co-workers or just random people on/off line. This goes for not only life threatening diseases but horrible things like home fires as well. What are you doing to protect your important papers such as birth certificates, marriage licenses, the valuable picture back ups, or even your legal documents? Me? Well I was doing nothing. We have a lock box but sadly it wouldn’t hold up in a fire. I also can never remember where I put things so having a safe and fire proof way to store these items is like a life saver to me. This is where SentrySafe comes into the picture.

I don’t know if you saw on Twitter or not but on the 13th of October SentrySafe spent Fire Prevention week by showing their fans how tough and durable their safes are. They loaded a couple thousand dollars worth of prizes into a Big Bolts Fire Safe and tossed it into a 1550 degree fire for 30 minutes all the while broadcasting this on twitter. I didn’t get to see it due to a last minute rush to get packed for Georgia but I heard it was amazing. That definitely shows you stand behind your products all the way, though I don’t think I’d ever doubt a SentrySafe product.What’s even crazier is that all their safes are tested in a similar fashion, without the thousand dollars worth of prizes of course lol. It’s really interesting to see how these everyday products that we may not put a lot of thought into get tested to make sure they are guaranteed to work like they say they will.

As I said before I didn’t have a really safe place to store my personal and valuable items so I was excited to get to review their Pink 1100 Fire-Safe Chest. What I love about the SentrySafe brand is that they know everyone needs something to keep their belongings safe and have various designs to fit jsut about any lifestyle. Another amazing thing is they spent all October donating a portion of the sales from their Pink 1100 Fire Safes to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. I think that’s amazing and helps such a great cause! I just love hearing about the other companies helping donate to an amazing cause. Don’t forget to follow them on Facebook and Twitter to stay up-to-date with all their great products!

Breast Cancer Awareness Pjs Giveaway!

14 Oct

As we all know Oct is Breast Cancer Awareness month. There is a good chance we all know of someone (somehow) who has/is/was dealing with this disease. I’ve had two family members (my great grandma and grandma) die from forms of cancer. So this is something that I worry about probably a bit more than I should. So before going on with this giveaway, please remember to do all the necessary checks and check ups that us ladies hate to do oh so much. A little discomfort for knowing that things are okay is worth it right?

Well I have been asked to do a giveaway that supports finding a cure for breast cancer research. One winner will receive a pair of KN Karen Neuburger pajamas and chenille sock and another winner will receive a pair of KN Karen Neuburger pajamas. Now for those of you that have not heard of KN before here is a little information:

The KN Karen Neuburger® lifestyle brand is synonymous with comfort-inspired fashion and home merchandise. The brand’s signature softness and quality can be experienced in heritage sleepwear and loungewear for the whole family, paper goods, crafting and memory products, sportswear and accessories, home collection, furnishings and décor. KN™ and KN Luxury Home™ products can be found in department stores, specialty stores and online at www.karenneuburger.com.  



To help show support for Breast Cancer Awareness, KN Karen Neuburger® is doing a few things with The Breast Cancer Research Foundation® to help spread the word even more then it already is. During the rest of October at 300 Dillards stores guests will have a chance to shop for a cause. For every purchase of KN Karen Neuburger pajamas sold at these “Pink Parties,” KN will generously donate 30 minuets of research to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Not only that, but all shoppers will also receive a free gift with the purchase of a pink ribbon key chain. The overall goal of this event is to donate a month of breast cancer research to help aid in the development of live saving treatments and helping in finding the eventual cure for breast cancer. Of course not everyone will be able to attend these ‘parties’, so if you are one of them and would love to donate, KN will also accept donations through their Time for Research Page, which can be found here:
https://support.bcrfcure.org/civicrm/contribute/pcp/info?reset=1&id=53

Now about that giveaway I mentioned. As stated above, there will be two lucky winners. These pajamas are just adorable. They have a beautiful rose pattern on them with the breast cancer ribbon on there as well. Also, the socks are adorable as well and have a ribbon stitched on the cuff of the sock. These products would definitely help keep you warm on those frigid nights, much like what us Midwestern folk are dealing with now…I tell you we must have just flew past winter and now it feels like December. To win it’s real simple, all you have to do is visit www.karenneuburger.com and tell me what you would like to add to your holiday wish list from that site.
