SPONSORED: Simple Loose Leaf

On November 27, 2015 By Leslie ShollyIn sponsored, Uncategorized, us family guideLeave a comment

We drink a lot of tea around here. Southern super-sweet tea, of course, although unlike my childhood when there was always a pitcher in the fridge, we limit it to holidays–and an assortment of herbal teas which are consumed on a daily basis by almost everyone. We even have contraptions for brewing loose leaf tea which it looks like are going to be getting a workout!

Because I’ve been invited to try a three-month subscription to Simple Loose Leaf, and, as always, to provide my honest review in exchange. And of course this comes along with a promotional offer to share with my tea-drinking readers!

The perfect partner in your pursuit of a happier and healthier you, Simple Loose Leaf is like having a personal Tea Sommelier. Each month, a box of savory loose leaf teas is shipped right to your door for just $17. Each box has 4-5 loose leaf teas, 2 re-usable muslin tea bags and a beautiful card detailing your month’s tea selection. Try each tea and order more from our store with a 50% member’s only discount! Get 25% off your membership (Gift & Ongoing) at Simple Loose Leaf. It’s the perfect box for the tea lover in your life, especially if that tea lover is you!

OK, y’all, let me start by saying that this is a sponsored post, which I get to do because I am a US Family Guide Blogger. I will be compensated for this post with a free subscription to this product, which I will then (HONESTLY, I PROMISE!) review. As of right now, I don’t know anything about this Bulu Box other than what I am about to share with you, but I do think it sounds awesome and I am excited to get to try it.

How about a Visit to Ripley's Gatlinburg Attractions? (SPONSORED)

On May 14, 2015 By Leslie ShollyIn Gatlinburg, sponsored, VacationsLeave a comment

You will no doubt have noticed that I have written several sponsored posts lately–this one included–and since that’s a departure from the usual here, I want to give you a little explanation.
I was referred by some of my blogging friends to U.S. Family Guide, a resource for family fun which also connects bloggers and family attractions. That means my readers get coupons, the attractions get publicity, and my family and I get free admission to some awesome attractions. Obviously, I’m not going to lie and say I enjoyed visiting this places if I don’t, I promise you that!
So the flurry of recent activity in this regard is because it’s almost summer and time for family fun. I am excited to have a coupon offer that local readers can take advantage of.

My readers will save $3 off Adult and $2 off Child Admission to all of Ripley’s Attractions in Tennessee. You’ll need to make your purchase online and enter the following promo code when you check out: USFAMILYGUIDE Click here for more information about this offer and about U.S. Family Guide.

I’ll bet you weren’t aware that there were so many Ripley’s-owned attractions in Gatlinburg. I know I wasn’t, even though I have visited some of them in the past. The Guinness World Records Museum, Ripley’s 5D Moving Theater, Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies, Ripley’s Believe It Or Not! Odditorium, Ripley’s Davy Crockett Mini-Golf, Ripley’s Haunted Adventure, and Ripley’s Marvelous Mirror Maze are all owned by Ripley’s and are included in this promotion. I’ve been to the World Records Museum, the Odditorium, and the Aquarium in the past, but it’s been many years and I know they’ve been updated since then so I am very excited. One of the coolest things about the Aquarium is a tunnel that goes right through the shark tank!
I’m not sure when my family and I will make our visit but I will be back to tell you more about it when we do. And in the meantime, if you use my promo code and visit for yourself, I hope you will come back here and comment!
