{Review} Back to School: Blue Ice Packs #Rubbermaid


Ask my little guy which new item he is most excited to take to school this year, and he will tell you it is his new reusable ice packs from Blue Ice, by Rubbermaid. He was adamant about taking his lunch to school, and made a huge fuss over picking out his lunch box and thermos. He then asked how he would keep his items cold? We found the section at our local store, and without a moments hesitation he selected the baseball, football, and basketball of the sports theme Blue Ice packs. (He then selected the monkey for his little brother!) He could not wait to get them home, to put them into the freezer.

He was beyond excited a few hours later that he had perfectly frozen ice packs to use in his lunch box! Sadly, our first use was not for his lunch box...it was for a minor injury that happened later that evening. We grabbed a towel and the new Monkey Blue Ice pack, and gave it to little brother for his "ouchie." We were riding bikes, when little brother fell down, and hurt his finger...yes the grand emergency was a very minor pinched finger! The ice pack was a dream come true, and helped little brother dry up the tears, and kept the swelling down!

Thank you Blue Ice for saving the day! We can not wait to use the sports ice packs as we head back to school, with our homemade lunches!



*We purchased the Blue Ice packs for our own back to school use, and just wanted to share the great news with my readers. I was not compensated for this review, all thoughts are my own!

Congratulations to Kellie W .,  as she was selected as the winner of the giveaway for the  New Trent iCarrier Heavy Duty Dual Port Charger! It is that time again! Conference season, is here and I know many Bloggers are heading to conferences to network, connect with brands, and to see those that they correspond with on Social Media! I was amazed and overwhelmed at the amount of "stuff," one can drag with them to a conference. As I packed my bag for a local two day conference,  I could not help but count the number of gadgets and cords that I would be hauling with me.  It wasn't until lunch time, that I gave any thought to the fact that there weren't any outlets available to charge all of my devices that I used throughout the day to connect to Social Media! As I looked around there were hundreds of bloggers and business people, all with the same concern. How on earth would I save my dying Smart Phone? I looked at the wall behind me and there was a line of d
