Rachel1919 says "Hits4Pay Review, this PTC site has its pros and cons" about Hits4Pay

Rachel1919 — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 23:56:57 GMT

I use Hits4Pay but there are other PTC (Pay To Click) sites that I like better. It doesn't hurt to join as many PTC websites as you can. If you are serious about making any real money by using paid to click sites then you should probably join them all. It is easy money and these sites do pay.

I don't like that Hits4Pay needs your social security number in order to pay you. They want you to fill out a IRS W-9 tax form in order to claim your money. I have only earned $14.04 (including the $10.00 bonus) so far so I am not yet near the $25.00 minimum pay yet. Plus their ads take longer than usual to load. They do however allow you to open up the ad in a separate window then come back to it later and you will see that it has credited you. The website keeps great records of the ads you view but it's not really necessary for them to do so in my opinion. If you are interested in joining Hits 4 Pay and need a referral link please use mine. Just remove the space between the website and my user...

Rachel1919 says "New Bounce Dryer Bar Fabric Softener for Your Laundry ~ a Thorou" about Bounce Dryer Bar

Rachel1919 — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 04:45:51 GMT

This is my review of the Bounce Dryer Bar. This dryer bar is designed to simplify how you do laundry. It is a scented dryer bar that looks just like a bar of soap. They come in a 2 month bar for $5.49 and a 4 month bar for $8.99. I tried the 2 month dryer bar and have been using it for the past 7 weeks. The scent I tried was called Fresh Linen it also is available in Outdoor Fresh. The cost is about the same as an 80 count box of dryer sheets.

It comes in a nice sturdy package with clear directions on how to use it. It says to simply stick the bar onto your dryer drum and that's exactly what I did. The first time I used it the bar slipped out of it's holster and was clunking around with the clothes. It sounded just like sneakers in the dryer so I heard it immediately and reattached the bar. I have been using the dryer bar for the last 7 months and it has not happened again since that time. After the first week of using the bar I noticed that the bar changed from white to...

Rachel1919 says "Garnier Fructis will leave your hair in worse condition." about Garnier Fructis Fortifying 2 in1 Shampoo + Conditioner

Rachel1919 — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 04:09:44 GMT

Garnier Fructis will leave your hair in worse condition than it was when you started using it.This is a fact and I have even talked about this shampoo and conditioner to many of my friends and every one of them agrees. Let me explain, I have pretty healthy hair to start out with. My hair is very long, straight and naturally light blonde without many split ends or problems. I take good care of it by not coloring it, using styling products or blow drying it ever. Usually I use Pantene or L'oreal shampoos and conditioners and those products work fine as long as I switch them every month or so. I tried a bottle of Garnier Fructis because, honestly, they have awesome commercials and that is what sold me at first. So I try it and immediately noticed that it was very hard to brush through my waist-length hair. Usually I don't have a problem at all. No matter how many times I tried to get a brush through my hair it would be tangle-city. I wanted to give this brand a chance so I continued to use...

Rachel1919 says "These taste good but they are very hard and too expensive" about Stacy's - Stacy's Pita Chips

Rachel1919 — Sun, 06 Sep 2009 06:30:05 GMT

I saw everyone eating these Stacy's Pita chips on Big Brother the reality show. They were eating them so much and talking about how good they were. I saw them at Walmart and picked up a bag. They cost 3-4 dollars a bag which I thought was high for what I considered a rather small bag. I bought them anyway because I really wanted to try them. The flavor, Parmesean Garlic and Herb, was really good but a little on the mild side. They were very crunchy but rather hard, I was expecting them to crunch like a bagel chip but they were so much harder to chew. I don't believe they were stale but they were unneccesarily hard to chew up.

Overall, I am glad I got to try them but none of the flavors they offered really knocked my socks off. They may have tasted better with a dip or something. I don't think I would buy them again in the future but some people might like them so I would recommend them if you like this kind of chip.

Rachel1919 says "My kid likes these I think they could be cheesier and more salty" about Kraft - Macaroni & Cheese Crackers - Mild Cheddar flavor

Rachel1919 — Sun, 06 Sep 2009 06:02:56 GMT

Kraft Macaroni and Cheese Crackers are really good, surprisingly, we buy the mild cheddar flavor. My 5 year old son loves them. I like them, I would rather have cheese-its but this would be my second choice. I buy them more often when I have a coupon or when the are on sale for buy one get one for free.

Many people I talk to say that they don't care for them. I think that they are quite tasty and the only thing I would do to change them would be to add little salt sprinkles on them, like the salt on top of Ritz crackers. I think they would be perfect then and I'd eat them more often. Right now I just buy them for my son and he is very happy with them.

Rachel1919 says "This cereal is perfect if you like to eat soggy cereal" about Kashi Honey Sunshine Cereal

Rachel1919 — Sun, 06 Sep 2009 05:39:10 GMT

Kashi Honey Sunshine Cereal is just okay in my opinion. The cereal looks like Captain Crunch and tastes similar to Sugar Smacks aka Honey Smacks. It definitely needs sweetner and a lot of it. I had to add 3 Splenda packets for it to even be the least bit palatable. The texture is grainy (it tastes healthy). It gets soggy quickly in milk that's the only part I liked since I am a fan of soggy cereal. However, many people like their cereal to be crunchy so if you are one of those people you are really going to dislike this cereal because it becomes soggy the instant it hits the milk. You can also snack on it without milk but I wouldn't recommend that either.

I have tried many Kashi products and I haven't liked a single thing they make. I've tried everything from crackers to waffles and all of their products taste like cardboard to me. The Honey Sunshine Cereal is definitely the best of the worst but it is not something I would ever purchase again.

Rachel1919 says "Tastes like canned tomato paste mixed w/way too much basil, YUCK" about Kraft - Philadelphia Sundried Tomato and Basil Cream Cheese Spread

Rachel1919 — Sat, 06 Jun 2009 01:05:28 GMT

I tried two of Philadelphia's newest cream cheese flavors. The first one I tried was the spinach and artichoke which I got a coupon for from Viewpoints. I was very happy with that product so I bought the sundried tomato and basil variety during my next visit to the grocery store.

The sundried tomato and basil version was the worst flavor of cream cheese/dip I have tasted in my life I and I'll never try that again. The flavor was way too strong for my taste buds. It tastes just like canned tomato paste mixed with way too much basil and hardly any cream cheese. I cannot think of one thing that this version of cream cheese would taste good on. Unfortunately it went straight into the garbage can. In other words it is as if I did not get a tub for free after all. I am very disappointed.

So the Philadelphia Spinach and Artichoke is very good but the Sundried Tomato and Basil variety is the absolute worst. I don't know how Philadelphia can make one flavor so good and then one so horrible...

Rachel1919 says "It's nice to have something different once in a while" about Kraft - Philadelphia Spinach & Artichoke Cream Cheese Spread

Rachel1919 — Sat, 06 Jun 2009 00:48:52 GMT

I just went to Publix recently to redeem my coupon for a free tub of Philadelphia Spinach and Artichoke cream cheese. It is one of the smaller tubs and costs $1.99 but with the coupon sent to me by viewpoints it was free. Everything tastes better when it's free but here is what I thought of the product.

The base is exactly like the regular soft cream cheese that Philly makes in the tubs - not the type that comes in blocks. I prefer the block-style cream cheese but this wasn't too bad. There are small bits of artichoke hearts and spinach mixed into the cream cheese. You can taste the artichoke but the flavor is not overpowering as for the spinach, I was not able to taste that at all. I'm not even sure why it was added, perhaps it was just for visual appeal because I surely was not able to taste it.

It was good and I have purchased it since the first time I tried it. I am not sure if it was something that I would purchase on a regular basis but it is great if you want to try something...
