Keep Kids Safe in the Dark!
Have you heard of Glow Grips?
I actually think that this is a pretty cool idea. If you have little one’s in the house, and any type of steps, this could be really great in helping keep them safe at night.
Details:
As Seen On TV Glow Grip – Glow In The Dark Super Grip Traction Strips. Instantly Bonds to Most Surfaces – Just Peel, Press and Go. 5-year Glow Guarantee! Only $19.99 + S&P. Click Here to check them out!
Why are they cool?
I can see these being really great for a few different uses here at my house, and am going to buy a couple of sets…. I thought you guys might be interested too. I’d never even heard of these before today!
- One set for my patio steps. They’re concrete, and I haven’t found any type of solar light that I could attach easily. These will be PERFECT. I like that they not only light up, but have traction too, perfect for slippery feet from the pool.
- On the steps from the living room to the kids rooms. There is a set of 4 steps that go up to the kids rooms, and my nephews have tripped more than a couple of times coming down to get a drink of water or use the bathroom at night. These will be super helpful!
So, check ’em out, and let me know if you’re excited about them too!

Everyone is doing it!
- 2,160 New boxes listed this week!
- 25,222 Items swapped!!
That means that there are a LOT of goodies out there for you to check out. So many kids clothes get such a small amount of wear, and we all end up with TONS of stuff still in really good condition. This is a fantastic way to get new stuff for your own kiddo’s really cheap, and an easy way to get rid of the gently worn items your kids have outgrown!
How does it work?
Your first box of kids clothes is FREE! Then you pay only $5 bucks + shipping for a box of new-to-you kids stuff! You can search by size, gender, and season to find a box that’s just right for you.
When you list a box of your own, when someone buys it, THEY pay the shipping. You just print off a pre-paid shipping label, and schedule a free pick-up!
When you add a box of books to swap, you get a FREE $5 credit in your account.
Find BRAND NEW stuff too!
As a fun bonus, sometimes they list a Golden Thred’s box, which is a box filled with BRAND NEW kids stuff from one of their partner companies. These are first come, first served, but are still just $5 + shipping!! Awesome.
Invite Your Friends!
You can invite people you know, like friends and family, and swap boxes with them too!
I’ve used ThredUp for over a year, and have NEVER had a bad experience with them.
{And if you are unhappy with a box, like if someone sends bad items, you have a way to fix it. Read their tips!} My little girl is almost a year, and we’ve ended up with lots of stuff that she outgrew so quick that it still looks brand new. So the people getting my boxes of stuff are getting great stuff!
Here are some examples of what I’ve gotten:
- A “Holiday” themed box, with a beautiful formal baby dress for Christmas, with matching tights, shoes, and headband. Also had 2 holiday pajama’s, Santa booties, a snowsuit, and a few holiday themed one piece bodysuits. For $5!!!
- A new summer box we just got, packed FULL! I got 3 like-new Carters dresses, 2 pairs of adorable sandles, 3 shorts, 4 summery tops, a swimsuit and baby towel, and 3 sun hats. I am lovin’ this one. Again, $5!
I also listed a box of used books, since baby gets tired of the same ol’ books. I plan on getting a new box as soon as the book swap goes live tomorrow.
So, sign up for a FREE account at ThredUp today!

Happy Hot Dog Man
You must watch this…
Why? Well, I’m not sure. All I know is that you must.
I was almost speechless after watching this video. And that is an incredibly rare occurrence.
But then again, it is incredibly rare to find a video sharing a product like this. “Have a contest, and see which one of you is the weiner…” Great lines like that don’t come around every day, right?
This is just incredible to me. It makes me wonder who would invent something like this? Who buys this? But then secretly, I caught myself wondering if maybe I COULD buy this somewhere? I now kind of want to make a hot dog man to dance for dinner…
What do you think…? Am I crazy, or is there a slight bit of awesomness mixed in with the weirdness of this product?…. :)
