I love the Scotch Essentials Adjustable Hem Tape. The fact that I measure 5"0 is the biggest reason I need this tape. I think it is a pretty cool concept and love the results. It's very easy to apply the tape and helps me save money buy heming my pants on my own instead of bringing them to a seamstress for hemming.
The only thing I did not like about this product is the instructions on the packaging. I do not think that the instructions are very good. The pictures are very small and you cannot really tell what they are showing. It also does not tell you how many strips to use. I ended up using 2 strips per pant leg but I think 4 strips would have been better. I will be trying 4 strips next time. 2 Strips did the trick but I find that the pants tend to slip a little on the sides (since I put the strips on the front and back of the pants).
Another little problem I found was that everytime I put my pants on, my toes get stuck in the extra pants that are folded on the inside.
Overall, this is a definite buy for me :) It does the trick when you are in a hurry and don't want to go see a seamstress.

I loved the Scotch Essentials Easy Fix Button kit. It works great and take just a few seconds to fix your missing button. What I loved most about it is that it is a sticker and you do not have to stick the buttons that come with the kit. If your blouse have specific buttons, you can use the spare button that came with the blouse when you purchased it so everything will match. This is an awesome product and easy to use. I will definitely be buying this product. I might just have to buy extra kits to put in my stocking stuffers this Christmas :) -

Everyone in the family owns an OtterBox Case.
I have to say, they are not the nicest things use, they have lots of better looking options out there but unfortunately, the other options do not protect your phones/tablets. The OtterBox is the only case I have seen be able to save your phone from breaking when dropped. I have used other cases in the past and my phone broke 5 days after purchasing it :(
After that, I learned that it is better to have a not so good looking case than to pay for 300$ plus for repairs to my phone. You always learn the hard way.
They only thing bad that I could say is that they are hard to find. Especially for the Nexus phones. We always have to order them online and risk dropping the new phone until the case comes out.
Another little suggestion to OtterBox would be to get the cases looking nicer so that the teens like them as much as the fun but cheaper cases :)

My daughter loves her ipod touch. When we bought it for her, we went all out and got her a 64GB.
Unfortunately, with all the changing in technology we would need to buy her a new one every 2 years but that gets way too expensive. I have recommended this product only because it is great once you buy it but after 1-2 years, you will most likely need another one. I wish you add an Undecided recommend option as well lol
She has a generation 4 and does not work as well as it used too. It is running really slow these days.
I think Apple needs to slow down on all of the changes and new generations. And it is very unfortunate that they also change the charging plugs. It seems like the like that people spend tooooooo much money on all of these products. I can understand that they are in the business to make money but I sometimes feel like they like to rip us off a little. For example, we bought a Generation 4 64GB ipod about 4 years ago and we also purchased a docking station/radio. If we were to purchase a new ipod, we would also need to purchase a new docking station/radio since the new generations do not fit in the old docking stations. It's bad enough that we need to buy a new ipod, why do they force us to get new docking stations as well. Why not use the same size of charging stations. Not to mention different plugs for all of their products. Again, why not use the same size plugs for all Apple products like Androids do :(
I am a little dissapointed with Apple on many things but unfortunately, that is what kids want these days (Apple products).

The Nintendo DS Lite is great for younger kids. We had 3 of these at home and the kids and adults used them all the time but unfortunetaly, it has done it's time in our house. It was great for our road trips and keep everyone occupied without fighting.
I think if you have young kids, this is a great game to own but as soon as your kids get older, they all want the nicer, cooler and bigger machines lol
As for charging, I find it lasted a pretty long time without needing to be charged so again, was great for long road trips.

The Wii is a great thing to get the kids moving on a rainy day. It is also fun to play with as a family. They have lots of family games to choose from. Everyone has a blast when we play and most importantly, we get to laugh at/with each other. Especially the dance games.
The only thing I don't really like about the Wii is how long the remotes last. I find we tend to have to charge them pretty often.
Besides that, it is a small unit and easy to bring to a party. Not sure if this exists already but a carry case would be great to have.

Lysol Disinfecting Wipes are the best invention for cleaning products invented so far.
I use these for everything from cleaning my washroom to my kitchen counter. They are easy to use. No need to spray, grab a napkin and wipe everything down. You simply take 1 wipe and go at it.
I will never go back to using Disinfecting Sprays.

Dove White Beauty Bar
I used to use Dove bars and loved them. Dove is a great brand! I unfortunetaly stopped using bars and now only use shower gel. When I need to use bars, dove is always the one that I purchase. It's easy on the skin and does not smell too strong.

I love the smell of this lotion. I could smell it all day.
It is a very affective lotion and does what it says it does but for me, I find vaseline leaves my skin a little oily.
I still wear it around the house or when my skin is particularly dry and when I do use it, I enjoy the smell :)

I really like the Aveeno Active Naturals Daily Moisturizing Lotion because it does not smell and I can wear it anytime and anywhere without worrying someone will be allergic to the smell.
It also leaves my skin feeling really soft. I have 1 sitting on my desk at work and use it as needed :)
