The Search for Arla Dofino

After receiving my BzzKit I went to grocery to try to find Arla Dofino.  The first two Kroger locations I tried didn't carry any flavor of Arla Dofino.  I tried another Kroger and it only had Chilli Lime, not a flavor I care try.  I also tried a few Wal-Marts, Target, and a Meijer and no Arla Dofino there either.  I decide to try the Kroger and Wal-Mart in a different part of town, again the Kroger had only Chilli Lime, and finally at Wal-Mart I was able to find some different flavors Dill Havarti and Creamy Havarti, but not Gouda that the Mac & Cheese recipe called for.  I was shopping with a friend and she noticed the best buy dates were several months past the current month.  After searching through I was able to find on package that was not past the best buy date, so I went ahead and used my coupon to get my free Arla Dofino.
I went home happy to have finally found Arla Dofino, but a bit disappointed I wouldn't be able to make the Mac & Cheese recipe.  I did try the Creamy Havarti on crackers and was pleased with the taste, I normally am not a fan of many fancy chesses, but I really enjoyed this one.  I also tried it mixed in with scrambled eggs, and it gives them a nice extra hint of flavor.
I really hope Arla Dofino becomes easier to find in my area and that the stores start carrying more varieties.  I would also reccomend checking the best buy dates before purchasing.  I was rather shocked by how far out of date the Arla Dofino at Wal-Mart was.

Amazing Money Making Apps, Make Easy Money

I've recently started taking couponing fairly seriously. While on a quest to learn more about couponing, I discovered that there are some very useful apps out there that you can earn money from. Some of these apps require buying certain products and receiving rebates, others just require you to snap a picture of your receipts, and some are super easy you just walk into a store and get points. I've been using several of these types of apps for awhile now wanted to give a bit of a run down on them. Many of these apps also give you bonuses for referring friends and it can be quite easy to make money just by referring friends. The first shopping app I ever downloaded aside from store coupon apps (which are great resources check out the Kroger and Wal-Mart apps if you haven't already), was Shopkick . Shopkick is super easy to use and earn points aka "Kicks" from and you can redeem the points for a variety of gift cards. I had always primarily focused on earning...

Skechers Reggae-Rasta Outdoor Lifestyle Sandal

I'm normally not a much of a sandal person aside from wedge sandals, which until my recent pair (also from Skechers), I haven't worn sandals for the past few years with  my old favorites being long past their life expectancy.  I had worked an event promoting Chaco Sandals and got a pair for free from working the event (gotta love my job). I was actually quite looking forward to trying the Chacos after seeing rave reviews and seeing they are podiatrist recommended and also a suggested sandal for Plantar Fascitis (not sure if I have it, but my mom does, and I do have high arches and get occasional symptoms of it). I worked the 3 day event in the Chacos both Z2 sandals and the Chaco Outcross (open air shoe/sandal hybrid), and while the arch support was great (almost too high even for me), the footbed was stiff.  I felt constant pressure on my arches especially in the sandals, in the Outcross, I felt the arch wasn't quite in the right spot, but still a very stiff footbe...

Skechers Cali Memory Foam Wedge Sandal

  I haven't owned a pair of good wedge sandals in years.  I am super picky about wedge sandals and most the new styles I don't care for either because of aesthetics, or comfort reasons.  Many of the current wedge offerings with thse type straps extend back towards the heel which I hate the look of, and others are just to hard of a footbed, or the shoe is very heavy. The Skechers Cali Memory Foam wedges have a very soft footbed (made of you guessed it.. Memory Foam), they are super cushy while still being supportive.  I have high arches and finding shoes can be a challenge for me, although I have great luck with most Skechers especially those with the memory foam, because it can conform to my foot.  These wedges do have a visible arch support on the footbed.  They are a fairly low heel at about 2 inches, I normally would prefer higher, but heel height is one area I'm more willing to compromise. Another great feature is that sandals are very lightw...
