FBook Privacy

Just when I thought I had my Facebook privacy settings set so the rest of the world couldn't get any glimpse into my private life, I find out that as of today, Facebook has implemented a new program allowing some of the pages I visit to pull info from my Facebook page in order to create a personalized experience on whatever site I happen to be on. What? Whoa Nellie, I don't need companies knowing information that I'm not even aware I'm giving them, in order to tailor my web experience with them. I posted the following message on my Facebook page, and you may want to as well, as I wasn't aware of this new feature until I received the post on my own page. For more information, here's an ABC article on the new facebook "Open Graph" policy by Blake Sabatinelli which helps to explain how to turn off the feature (as I have also explained below).

Copy and Post this to your Facebook page if you don't want to give websites access to your Facebook information:

As of today, there is a new privacy setting called "Instant Personalization" that shares data with non-facebook websites and it is automatically set to "Allow." Go to Account > Privacy Settings > Applications and Websites> Click "Edit" on the right on Instant Personalization and uncheck "Allow". Please copy & repost!

People Mag Free Music

I just finished listening to May's  FREE 10 song country music download from People Magazine. I was happy to find Mindy McCready on the list. Her songs got me through a whole year of my life (a bazillion years ago in '95?) and then she was just gone. I  heard about her troubles and how her life turned into a true tragic country song, so I'm happy she's back, "Wanting a Man."

I especially liked "Kiss Me Now" by Katie Armiger. I've never heard of her before, but my my ears perked up when she started singing. You can download People Magazine's FREE May Playlist here. The download code (M3PET4A4TFHJ) if you need it (I didn't) is on the page and expires on June 18th. Download now, tho, otherwise you'll forget (I would...) and you'll miss some great new country songs.

philosophy

New Miracle Worker moisturizer by philosophy when u sign up to become a facebook fan and agree to receive philosophy's emails. philosophy is dedicated to making paraben free products, and I'm interested to see how their moisturizer stacks up to my Olay ProX. I've been an Olay girl for years and it's only recently come to my attention that many body products are made with parabens, which may or may not be harmful, depending on which side of the fence you're on. I could certainly argue that I've suffered no ill-effects from using Olay products. I hope my sample size philosophy is big enough for me to do a real trial use with. Get yours at the philosophy facebook site here.

Goldbond

I've been getting a lot of freebies lately, and loving it. One of my recent freebies was sample of Gold Bond Ultimate Hand Sanitizer with Moisturizer. I had a chance to use it last night.

Going to the Texas Roadhouse when we receive our tax refund has become an annual ritual, so as soon as my husband was home from work yesterday, we were out the door to dinner. The Roadhouse is our favorite place to go because they load you up with peanuts, and the most delicious soft rolls with cinnamon butter, as soon as you're seated. You can dig right in, and skip those awful 5 minutes of waiting and playing tap-your-fingers-on-the-tabletop before a waiter comes to the table.

I couldn't wait to get my hands on the cinnamon rolls, but first we had to sanitize. As I reached into my purse for my small travel sanitizer, I remembered that the last time I used it there hadn't been much left, but I thought I could get just enough out of it for the two of us. Wrong! I couldn't even find it. I must have thrown it away, meaning to replace it, and forgot. I was gleefully happy (I was practically salivating over those rolls sitting in front of me) that I had just stocked my purse with a bunch of my recent freebies, and knew one of them was the Gold Bond Hand Sanitizer/Moisturizer sample.

There are two things I wouldn't be able to be stranded on a desert island without (three, if you count Diet Coke). The first one is hand moisturizer, and the second is sanitizer. I suppose I wouldn't have to worry about the nasty handles on gas pumps or bank tubes at the drive-up window (both of which I won't touch without a paper towel....) on a desert island, but here, at dinner, I need to clean my hands before I can eat my food. If we had been out, I would have gone to the ladies room and washed my hands, but since we had been home, I knew my hands were clean and I just need a quick-sanitize (and then a bit of lotion). Using hand sanitizer and then following up with a moisturizer has become as common to me as brushing my teeth.

Even though I was missing my hand sanitizer, I did have my hand lotion in my purse, but found that after using my free sample of Gold Bond Hand Sanitizer with Moisturizer, I didn't have to use my hand lotion. My hands didn't feel dry after using the sanitizer with moisturizer. The package says there are 7 essential vitamins, but I don't care about that. Why do my hands need vitamins? I wonder if the vitamins are what makes the moisturizer.

My sample came with a .55 coupon off one, so I will be purchasing this product when it goes on sale (hopefully they have a travel or smaller size) to replace the two products I currently lug around with me in my purse. I love free samples and all of this 'try it before you buy it' I've been able to do lately. Unless a really great deal caught my eye on the Gold Bond Sanitizer with Moisturizer (and I had a coupon), it's not a product I would have paid attention to. Now it is, especially since I've tried it and I do have a coupon.

My kudoos to the Texas Roadhouse, too, for their attention to hand sanitization. As we were leaving the restaurant, I noticed a hand sanitizer dispenser on the wall. Yea! It was easily accessible, and I'm comforted with the fact that it has probably become habit for the waitstaff to use it. I wonder if Gold Bond could get the refill contract!

KMart Double Coupons

Harumph. My KMart double coupon trip was a bust. They didn't want to double one b/c it covered two products ($1 off 2), and wouldn't let me use a BOGO since I'd used a dollar off coupon for one of the products. They had very little of what I had coups for, and what they did have was overpriced. I had a $1.50 coupon for bathroom cleaner, which doubled, making the product free, and $2.00 off Bic razors, which doubled, making the product $1.69. I could swear the shelf tag price was $4.99, not $5.69 as I was charged, but didn't have the time to argue after the first go-round of problems. I got bathroom cleaner and razors for $1.80, not the stellar deal I was hoping for, as any savings were wasted in gas. Boo-Hoo K-Mart. I knew there was a reason I'd put this off 'till the last minute.
