Our Day at Old Navy sponsored by CrowdtapW
Today my friends and I did our sample share which was provided from Crowdtap's Old Navy Style Council. I have been a part of Crowdtap for just under a year now and I am so excited to be part of this panel. This is my third sample share now and they literally give you free clothes to sample and share about. I LOVE Old Navy, so this is the perfect council for me to be a part of. The difference today is that I got to bring 3 great friends to do this sample share with me. We each got to pick out a free pair of bottoms AND shoes for a great seasonal look.
The girls and I started at the front of the store ooing and ahing as we went and picking up everything. My friends were amazed that the coupons were so broad, allowing them to get anything they set their heart on. One of my friends loved the wedges and another the decorated flip flops. And for the bottoms, we tried shorts and capris and pants. It was hard to narrow down exactly what we would end up getting. One of my friends had about 20 things over her arm and we had to help her narrow down what she really wanted. We had such a fun time laughing and sharing this experience - not only a great way to experience Old Navy but a great bonding time with my girls. I can't thank crowdtap enough for this experience and Old Navy too!
The cutest thing that happened was that my girls reached for their wallets out of habit as we went thru checkout and were prepared to pay. But the cashier simply handed them their bags and receipts and said to have a great day. I don't think they really thought it would be totally free. They thanked me profusely and said they had a great time! :)
Thanks for listening to me share about my amazing day from Crowdtap!

About Me
I haven't posted recently about About.me and I thought I would give you all a reminder what a great site this is. It is facebook, twitter, email and you all rolled into one convenient location. I like it alot because it is so easy to personalize. To me facebook is rather cookie cutter and very much looks the same for each person and it only allows one way to connect. But with about.me, you can connect in a variety of ways thru every social media board you access. They can all be connected back to about.me to create a very integrated experience and one that will leave you feeling like your life is truly portrayed in this one site. And now, this site allows you to use the exclusive iphone app to truly take your identity with you whereever you go. Give this a try and I think you will be very pleased. I am part of a bzzcampaign that hooked me up with this site and I am really happy with it!

Awesome new Grain free food from Science Diet
I have been feeding new Science Diet Ideal Balance Grain Free to my cat now for just over a week. I am so pleased with how excited she is about this food. She is a reasonably picking cat and usually gets tired of any food half way thru the bag. She likes certain foods and only if they are freshly bought and opened. With this food, she is over half way and loving every morsel - she doesn't leave any in the bowl anymore and she gets so "purry" and excited when it is time to eat. I have never seen her this excited about eating her food. So there is definitely something different about this food, and I am pleased to report that it is a quality food that is grain free. So I know I am doing something healthy and good for her too. I am really pleased with this food and will continue to purchase it when the bzz campaign is over. Thank you bzzagent for my free bag of food from Science diet.

The Smarterer!!
A while back I posted about smarterer. Smarterer is a platform designed to score individuals on digital, social, and technical skills. Using crowdsourced test design and a scoring mechanism similar to the one developed to rank chess masters, in just 10 questions and 60 seconds we can give you a valid score.
I have been using it and achieved a master score in my fave ever product panel - Bzzagent! I was really impressed how it actually not only evaluated my smarts in this panel, but enabled me to learn things I hadn't known before. This is a very useful tool for such areas as
Blogging tools like Blogger, Tumblr, and WordPress
Browser systems such as Firefox, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer
Games like Angry Birds and World of Warcraft
Social Media tools like Facebook, Flickr, Google+, Twitter, and YouTube
Can you imagine getting a score in some of these things? It is so cool to see how you stack up against other people or just teach yourself some random facts about these applications. I am anxious to see how Smarterer becomes even more useful in the coming years. But for now like them on facebook to keep up on the latest trends and developments.
Have fun!! :)

Pet Food!!
I just received a campaign from bzzagent to try new Science Diet Grain free cat food. I just ordered my bag for free and I am so excited. I hope my kitty will be as happy as I am. I have been hearing so much about protein being an important staple in a cat's life and I know that all the excess grains and by products most cat foods use is not healthy for her. So I will posting soon how my kitty responds to this food and what she thinks of it, but until then, I am really excited about this campaign!

Old Navy Sample Share thru Crowdtap
Crowdtap is a fabulous new site that has an online Old Navy council - so many people passionate about Old Navy get to discuss the amazing clothes and fashions that Old Navy has and I am one of those lucky people. On occasion, Crowdtap sends out a sample share and let's me and a friend pick out an outfit or a top or some other fashion-forward piece for absolutely FREE!! This is such an exciting event.
I was so excited about this sample share! After a long winter I was ready to get some bright fun tanks and tees to beat the winter blahs. I chose my friend Michele to go with me and we went to a great big ON that we have here in northern CO.
I was absolutely amazed by all the choices and colors there were to choose from. My friend and I took our time looking at all the tanks and tees and the other clothes too. I just love ON's style this year! The flip flops and the dresses! I am so anxious for spring after being there. I chose a couple of tanks in bright colors that I plan to layer and my friend chose a basic v-neck tee and a tank as well. It was great fun to get in on the new spring colors.
When we checked out, the cashiers were floored that we got these things for absolutely free and they wanted to know what we were a part of. I told them all about ON's style council and got their emails so I could send them a link to sign up.
It was a great day and we had so much fun! Thank you Old Navy! You rock! :)
