Garanimals Baby Girls' 2 Piece Graphic...

We found these adorable 2 piece Garanimal sets at Wal-Mart on-line. I’ve been a big fan of Garanimals since Xavier was a baby. I purchased these for Zarriah to knock around in on the week-ends or lazy days. They’re great for everyday play wear and adorable enough to head to the mall or grocery store when you have to run errands.

I have found that Garanimals hold up well on the playground, lounging around the house and through the wash. This I’m so Sweet set include a fleece top and pants, so Zarriah will be nice and toasty this winter while playing with her Disney Princesses.

I fell in love with the Double the Fun set too. This set is made of fleece as well. Both will look adorable with a pair of sneakers or flats if your heading to the mall or grocery store. I purchased both sets for $7.76 each. I ordered additional items, so I was able to get free shipping to my house. I love a bargain, especially when I don’t have to pay a fortune for cloths that my little sweeties will grow out of in months.

Pillow Pets: Buzzy Bumble Bee Pillow Review

February 11, 2011 by Rhonda Gales

I love spoiling my grandson. He loves The Bee movie, and fell in love with the Buzzy Bumble Bee Pet Pillow when he saw it. Mama surprised him this week, and shipped this adorable pillow to him. I can’t wait to receive the phone call this week-end when opens his package. Although my grandson was partial to Buzzy Bumble Bee, the Patriot Pup, Jolly Giraffe, and Ms. Lady Bug are adorable too. You can view the entire selection of Pet Pillows available by visiting www.mypillowpets.com They are quickly becoming the rage!
I purchased the large 18″ pillow; however, you can purchase the pillow in the 11″ as well. The pillows are made out of chenille, which makes them oh so soft and cuddly. You unvelcro their belly, and thus your child has a snugly pillow. You get a bonus ladies, they’re machine washable and should be air dried.

I actually found the Buzzy Bumble Bee at CVS for $19.99. The price was comparable to Walmart, but a little more than Amazon. Amazon is offering free shipping on their Pet Pillows too, so check out their site if you’re interested in purchasing.

Have A Heart – Give The Goods To Charity

January 15, 2010 by Rhonda Gales

The economy is brutal. Jobs are scarce and many families are enduring hard times. Mothers are struggling to cloth and feed their children. Some retail giants are still making millions or billions annually in spite of the economy, but do you think they’re sharing the wealth? I’m not talking about these giants writing checks to us common folks or paying our bills, but simply assisting in other ways. For example, helping a school or church by donating coats, gloves or shoes and hats during the winter. Rather than donate unsold items to charity or families that

are struggling, retail giants like Wal Mart and H & M trash their unsold merchandise. Yes, you read the sentence correctly they literally trash their merchandise. They put holes in the items, cut off the sleeves etc., place them in large trash bags and into the dumpster they go. They don’t want the items to be used. When I read this shocking story, I was in disbelief. I thought retail giants placed their items on Clearance and just marked them down until they sold.

That shows how little I know. A graduate student by the name of Cynthia Magnus found trashed merchandise outside the back entrance of H&M in New York City. She also found Wal-Mart items a few doors down that had been dumped. She exposed both companies for being so heartless when so many people are suffering. They have both agreed to stop trashing their goods and donate it to charity. Bravo, but it’s so sad that it took someone with a heart to slap these corporate giant’s hands and take their scissors before they agreed to allow those in need to benefit from what they perceived to be trash.

I often wonder how people in decision making positions in large corporations get their jobs. I take clothing to the local Goodwill several times of a year. Someone can use it, and the majority of the time they getting quality items that have been well taken care of. Why wouldn’t people who work for million and billion dollar companies think to do the same?

I guess when you make million dollar salaries, you don’t think much about the struggling families across town or around the corner. I guess when you see CNN or your local TV station discussing the economy, it just goes in one ear and out the other. Especially when you’re safe and warm in your mansion with a hefty bank account others aren’t important.

I’m glad to hear that Wal Mart and H & M will now donate their unsold goods to charity. I believe they need to change their hiring process as well. They should require all of their employees to have a heart and to possess compassion for their fellow human beings.
