Kroger Fuel "How Low Can You Go?"

I want to educate my readers about the Kroger Fuel Points program so you can save money on your groceries and your fuel! I want to start by telling you the basic information that you will want to know about the Kroger Fuel Points program. First, you can get up to $1 off per gallon when you redeem 1000 Fuel Points* and there are five ways to accrue fuel points at the stores every single day:
  1. Collect 1 Fuel Point for every $1 you spend on groceries*
  2. Receive 2 Fuel Points for every $1 you spend on eligible gift cards*
  3. Receive 2 Fuel Points for every $1 you spend on no-contract phone and airtime card purchases
  4. Earn 50 Fuel Points for every qualifying prescription you fill at your store’s pharmacy**
  5. Earn 50 Fuel Points when you complete a customer survey at the bottom of your receipt***
Also be sure to keep an eye out for rotating offers, like the chance to earn 4 times Fuel Points on gift cards! With gas prices this low and the opportunity to earn Fuel Points on all your Kroger purchases, I have heard of people filling up for less than $1 per gallon when they redeem their points!

You can redeem points at Kroger Fuel Centers and Kroger-owned convenience stores such as Turkey Hill and at participating Shell Stations!

At Kroger Fuel Centers and Kroger-owned convenience stores, scan your Plus Card at the pump and follow the instructions to apply your discount to a fill-up of up to 35 gallons. You can redeem your points in 100-point (or 10¢) increments — use up to 1,000 Fuel Points on a single fill-up to get $1 off per gallon! You can also save some points for later.

At Shell Stations, follow the screen prompts to initiate the discount before you pay, then do one of the following:
  • Insert your full-size store loyalty card
  • Manually enter your alternate ID or your loyalty card number

Track Your Points

Your Fuel Points total for the current month is listed at the bottom of every receipt from your local store. You can also track your points online at Kroger.com or through their mobile app — just register your loyalty card there! Look under the Savings tab for your fuel points summary.

Use the Store Locator at Kroger.com to find a participating Fuel Center or Shell Station near you!

Visit this link: http://kroger.softcoin.com/programs/kroger/code/?origin=wh0130PA&assettag=whbz013015&filtertag=whbz013015PA and log into your Kroger card account.

If you've tried any ordinary laundry wash bags, you'll notice the InsideSmarts difference in no time. These #1 Rated Wash Bags are made of premium-grade mesh that makes them as strong & durable as they are luxurious & smooth.

This popular lingerie wash bag set ships to you with 4 Luxury Wash Bags (2 medium, 2 large). Keep like-colors separated using the 3 white wash bags for light-colored loads, and the 1 large black bag for dark-colored items.

Inside Smarts Laundry Bags - Amazon

Every Wash: Quiet & Safe. 

Zippered mesh laundry bags can be noisy, but not this new, 2015 Delicates Wash Bag design. Slip the rustproof zipper under the smart zipper guard to protect & ensure a quiet, snag-free wash.

There are 4 mesh laundry bags included, each featuring a durable zip top enclosure, and an assortment of sizes based on your washing needs. There is an elastic zipper guard to tuck away the zipper so no worries of the zipper getting stuck on anything in the wash and no noisy clanking in the dryer! One of the two larger bags is black for washing your darker colored items .

Another cool thing about these bags is that you can register them after purchasing to secure their 365-day Smart Wash Guarantee against any manufacturing defects. If you don't know what you can wash in the bags they also have videos to show you the best use for your laundry bags! I personally recommend these, awesome product!

My Review


These. Laundry. Bags. Are. Amazing! I'm pretty sure that's my review in it's entirety. Kidding, but it's nearly true!

I just cannot find a single thing about this that I don't LOVE. I have always used a laundry bag for washing my bras and it helps to keep the straps from being stretched out but other laundry bags usually have larger mesh with holes where the hooks get stuck and can get tangled. They are also very nice for keeping my knee high stockings and pantyhose together and the washer doesn't suck them up. Using a laundry bag for delicates and small items allows bras to keep their shape and small items like socks and stockings won't get lost.

These laundry bags have a tight mesh which allows water and soap to flow through but it will not allow the hooks or small items to exit the bag or get tangled!

My Review


My Instagram
I am quite impressed with this eye gel! A really good one can be hard to come by especially one that works so quickly! It is very smooth and it is cool when you first apply it, instantly diminishing puffiness around your eyes.


This gel with aloe vera, amino acids, hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, and plant stem cells, just to name a few of the amazing ingredients, works fast! The Radha Beauty eye gel dries quickly and does not leave any sticky residue or oiliness just moisturized, less baggy eyes. After just one use, I felt it tightening the skin around and more specifically under my eyes nearly immediately. 

Each use only requires a very small amount of the eye gel so this little bottle will last you a long time! Plus one use lasts all day and you just reapply it before bed and let it do it's magic overnight too!

My Instagram
The single drawback with MY order was in shipping which has nothing to do with the product. My package was damaged in delivery. The box was damaged when I received it and some of the content was squeezed out of the bottle, it was dry dry but sticky. Also, every time you pump some out and wipe off the dispenser, walk away and come back it has leaked a bit. Neither of these should deter you as this was my experience but I like to include all the details.

PRO-Dental Probiotic Review

Pro-Dental - Website
PRO-Dental is revolutionary new probiotic product that focuses on repopulating your oral cavities (ear, nose and throat area) with beneficial bacteria as opposed to your digestive tract. This is an incredible and powerful combination of four oral probiotic strains clinically shown to improve bad breath, plaque and even ear, nose and throat infections.

My Instagram
If you suffer from recurrent sore throats, allergies, ear or sinus infections or from dental issues such as cavities, plaque, bad breath, teeth staining, gum disease, tonsil stones, or sensitive teeth, this is the recommended formula.
This tablet should be chewed or dissolved in your mouth. It’s best to take after using mouthwash or brushing your teeth. When you use any bacteria-killing products, you are wiping out the good guys along with the bad guys. PRO-Dental will be most effective after use of these products, effectively repopulating your oral cavities with the beneficial bacteria.

Pro-Dental - Website
Expect relatively fast results. PRO-Dental is formulated with the most clinically proven oral probiotic strains and will colonize in your mouth, ear, nose and throat area within 7 days of consistent use. Additionally, immune enhancing properties have been shown to take effect within the first 24 hours of use!

My Review


My Instagram
Being a smoker in the past I have suffered from bad breath a lot! Since stopping smoking my breath has improved a lot but still it's not amazingly fresh. I floss, brush, and use mouth wash daily but it wasn't helping me at all. Nothing seemed to help, until I tried this pro-dental probiotic that is!

I generally have decent results on my checkups at the dentist but after using this product the dentist was extremely surprised. She commented on how good my gums looked and how my mouth smelled better too. She asked me what I had done different and I told her about this product. She was surprised that there is a probiotic for dental purposes too!

My Instagram
This product has proven itself to me and I now understand why probiotics are so important. I have taken them before for my GI tract but never knew that there were products to help with my bad breath and sinus problems!

I highly recommend this product to anyone who suffers from bad breath, excessive tooth decay (even with proper dental care), or sinus issues. I saw results and I genuinely hope you do too!

Check out the brand on Facebook, Twitter, and go buy it on Amazon!

My Review

Instagram Video
I wanted to try a stylus for my Nexus 5 and Nexus 10. I have no trouble using my finger on my tablet however my mother struggles with hers. She has long nails and she hasn't grasped the "using the pad of your finger and not the tip of your nail" idea. My mother has a Nexus 5 phone and an iPad 2. Because this device is not brand specific I figured it would be a great addition for her.

Being a professional woman with a job in the industry and direct reports I figured that this 4-in-1 combination would be perfect! She loves that she can use the stylus as a pen on her device and carry it with her in her purse to use as a pen also. The laser pointer could come in handy for meetings. To be honest, it's been more fun using it with the cat though. The LED light has come in handy when trying to find things in your purse too.

The stylus is like all stylus' I have seen and used before and is a piece of plastic with a bubble of hair under it. That being said, it can be ruptured and if it is, it is not effective on any device anymore.

With so many uses, this 4-in-1 stylus, ball point pen, LED light, and laser pointer has been fun, useful, helpful, and overall satisfying to use.

Magnetic Phone Mount Review

This top rated magnetic phone mount has a futuristic design and will work with many different types of smartphones, eliminating the need to use bulky clamps as with standard phone mounts.

This phone mount offers extreme suction. It really sticks! Industry-leading suction gel will stick on almost any flat surface. If gel loses stickiness, simply rinse under water and air dry to restore the suction. You can attach it to your windshield, dashboard, office desk, kitchen counter or even your golf cart!

The stand offers versatile maneuverability. The contact surface with the phone can rotate 360° and swivel from side to side, allowing you to find the perfect viewing angle. The magnetic top is reversible so you can brace a larger device against the base for additional stability. No other type of phone cradle can boast this!

When you buy this magnetic phone mount from Infernal Innovations you receive a bonus gift too! While the magnet mount sticks almost anywhere, no suction cup sticks to 100% of dash boards with textured surfaces. As a free bonus, Infernal Innovations has included an adhesive disk (a $5.99 value) just in case you need it. Infernal Innovations stands by their product and offer a risk-free 5-year warranty. Yes! FIVE years!

This magnetic phone mount protects your phone too. The rubberized contact surface works with the magnets so that your phone is protected from scratches and so that it won't slide off! The four strong magnets provide the piece of mind that your phone will be held gently but firmly. Exactly where you need it to stay. There are multiple ways of inserting the metal plate which guarantees that you will be able to use your phone with this product! Simply hold your device near the magnetic head and it will attach firmly to the phone mount.


My Review


My Instagram
I personally do not use my phone as a GPS. I have a Garmin GPS to get me places and I bought it before I had a smart phone with these capabilities. I do however, have a lot of friends who use their smart phones as a GPS helping them navigate which I could see all kinds of uses for this mount for! I think I may be thinking too small though! Yes, this device will allow you to set up your phone to be used as a GPS but it can be used for so much more! Especially with many states enforcing hands free laws, this magnetic phone mount will aid in keeping drivers using their devices hands on the wheel.

This magnetic phone mount is very easy to assemble and was ready in a matter of seconds on my windshield. The magnetic component of this device is fantastic! It is easy to put in place and easy to remove from the mount but it did not slip or move position one bit when I didn't want it to. This mount allows me to give my full attention to the road and not worry about who texted or called me.

I don't like to text and drive, big shock for someone in my age bracket, but it makes me feel unsafe and it's illegal too so, why not avoid it! This device allows me to see my incoming texts and if necessary I can follow up with a phone call. All hands free thanks to the "OK, Google...." feature on my phone and the voice commands in my Dodge Journey.

My Instagram
To apply this magnetic phone mount to your windshield or dashboard (without the adhesive disc):
  1. Pull lever up
  2. Place the magnetic phone mount where you would like it to be
  3. Push the lever back down

That's it, done! The mount is attached to your dashboard or windshield. I wasn't able to use it on a slanted curved surface, but it works on a flat or slanted surface. To attach your phone to the mount:
  1. Remove phone case
  2. Place magnet on back of phone
  3. Replace phone case
  4. Place phone on magnetic phone mount
The magnet is very thin so there is no bulge under the case. I have a case that has a silicone case then a hard plastic case too and I don't notice a difference in the case. I have not experienced any difference in functionality in my Nexus 5 or even WiFi with this magnet in place. There is no effect on functionality.

I love that I don't have to attach the magnetic phone mount permanently to my vehicle or the magnet to my phone! Because it's not permanent, I can move it from car to car or phone to phone which is a major plus for me! I found this magnetic phone mount much easier to use than other bracket-like phone holders that need constant adjustment before each use.

As long as you're not making rash movements or roll the vehicle or something, this magnetic phone mount will keep your phone in place on the dash. I found that shaking the holder released the hold of the magnet however this case will hopefully not be seen in any use case.

My Review


My Instagram
I have used this product only once so far but I am officially a huge fan of Chamberlain's Leather Milk. The product gently nourishes, strengthens, restores and preserves your leather. Leather Milk is leather enriching and also works as a gentle cleaner.

I used this product on my favorite pair of leather shoes. I bought them while I was living in Germany in 2012 and to be honest I probably haven't been taking the best care of them. I know I should do more but I didn't know about this amazing product until just now!

After one application of Chamberlain's Leather Milk I saw a huge difference and once I let it dry, I felt a huge difference too. My shoes were so soft! The leather milk will most likely make your leather look darker when first applied but after it dries, there shouldn't be a difference.

My favorite part of this product (other than how well it works) is that it smells so good. I have used a lot of leather cleaning and polishing products in the past that worked to nourish the leather but smelled so badly and made the whole house smell too. I love that this stuff doesn't stink, it only has a light almond scent to it. And that scent is great!

This product is great to clean up the normal wear and tear on your leather shoes, purses, furnature and more. I'm impressed with how easy it was to use too! I'm buying more for me and my parents too! They have two leather chairs with ottomans and a leather loveseat that get beat on by my brothers kids. They see all kinds of wear with all my brothers little rascals coming over all the time!
