Product Review - RCA Night Glow USB Home and Travel Charger

About the Product
I recently learned about Geekorize.com and they were interested in having me try out one of the cool products that they carry. This compact LED nightlight features a USB port for charging your portable electronic devices. Its soft glow is perfect for use around the home or when you travel.

My Take on the Product
This was a great product that will make it so much easier for you to be able to charge your electronics. I know for me there are more and more items that I have that are able to be charged via USB and when I travel it becomes something of a pain to always have to bring multiple cables. This allows me to travel much lighter and as long as where I am going is based on a 110V outlet this can really help. I will warn and say that this is not set to work in a 220V so please keep that in mind. The product also does give you a night light to use in a room where you need it which is a nice plus! All-in-all, this product works well and provides an easy charge for your electronics!

About the Product
The Snow Joe 322P electric snow thrower is designed to easily remove snow from decks, steps and walkways. Unlike gas models, the Snow Joe 322P is powered electrically, making it effortless to start and maintain. This model has been constructed using only the highest grade parts throughout each stage of its production.

Weighing only 12.5 pounds, the Snow Joe 322P affords an ease of maneuverability unmatched by its competitors. Its powerful 7.5 AMP motor throws snow up to 20-FT. Clearing paths 12-IN wide and 4-IN deep with each pass, the three-blade rotor effectively cuts through light snowfall.

Enhancing the unit’s performance is its ergonomic handle, precisely engineered with a back-saving curve to alleviate user strain and reduce fatigue. When it comes to tackling light snowfall, the Snow Joe 322P electric snow thrower is the right winter tool you'll need to 'Get Equipped'.


  • Best Use: Decks, steps and walkways

  • Key lock prevents unauthorized use
  • Ergonomic design and adjustable handle alleviate back strain
  • Weight: 12.5 pounds
  • ETL approved

  • Price: $89.99

My Take on the Product
This is a great snow thrower, especially for smaller areas. I have used this quite a bit now on my deck, front porch and walkway where I cannot use my snow blower because it is too large. At first I was worried that the electric cord would be too cumbersome, but I found that it really wasn't and that it worked very well and threw the snow quite a way. Overall for the price this works quite well, and I was very impressed with the lightweight nature of the product altogether and how well it sliced through the snow in the places where I needed it!

My Take on the Bible
This was a great Bible for young people. Not only is it colorful  and user-friendly, it also has some great asides that will make children understand more about the Bible and the passages throughout the Bible. I was impressed with how easy this Bible was to understand and how well the Bible was set up to help all kids take the most out of the passages themselves. I always remember that the Bible that I had as a young adult was really more of an adult Bible and was not easy to comprehend and there really was no guidance in it to hep me comprehend what I was reading which did not encourage me to read on my own, this was different and I believe will encourage and motivate any young adult to delve deeper into the text to gain a broader understanding of what the book is sharing with them individually.

Product Review - Zim’s Crack Creme®

About the Product
Winter can be a real pain – including breaking the skin open on your feet and hands. Zim’s Crack Creme® has a name that will make a teenage boy giggle, but it also works wonders to tame old-man winter. It’s a favorite of many people who face harsh weather elements, have hard on skin jobs such as construction workers and nurses, and just those who suffer from dry, cracked skin.

Zim’s Crack Creme® Original Formula was founded over 60 years ago to help cement workers treat dry, cracked hands and feet. It is an herbal formula used to soften and moisturize dry, cracked skin on hands, feet, elbows, and cuticles using naturally based ingredients of arnica and aloe vera.

Zim’s Crack Creme® Creamy Daytime is an herbal formula used to soften and moisturize dry, cracked skin on hands, feet, elbows, and cuticles using naturally based ingredients of arnica and aloe vera. Recommended for daytime use, complimenting nighttime use of the Zim’s Crack Creme Original Liquid Formula. Zim's Crack Creme can be purchased nationally at K-Mart stores and at a number of health and food stores. For more information about the products, feel free to check out our website or Facebook page for more information.

My Take on the Product
I am always looking for cremes during the winter to help my skin to stay healthy and moisturized. With that in mind, I was excited to try this new product out. Lately I have been having some issues with my hands being very dry lately due to the winter winds. When I tried this out I found that both were amazingly effective, providing great coverage without too much oily residue. This is exactly what I am always looking for in a hand creme, and I was not disappointed with either of these. In stopping by my local K-Mart I was impressed with the price of this as well as I found in using this that you do not need to use that much for optimal coverage, thus this lasts longer than some lotion that I have tried in the past. All-in-all this was a great product that really helped to heal my hands and I would highly recommend this to all in the future!

The Enzo Jumper Boot - A Great Boot for Any Girl


The Enzo Jumper boot features statement style in three different ways!

Faux leather upper has a removable shaft so girls can wear the boot as a full shaft or short shaft. Elastic gore at the sides allows for an easy, slip-on fit.

Durable rubber outer sole. Available in black sparkles or leopard print. Both come with solid black shaft.

My Take on the Boots
These boots were very cool and my daughter thought they were very stylish as well. One of the best things about the boots was the fact that they were interchangeable for the spats that came with them, so no matter whether you wanted to wear them as black boots, or as leopard skin colored boots, or even if you wanted to forgo the spats altogether and wear the boots as ankle boots, you had so many choices. The boots also went with many different clothing options and with the rugged exterior, you get to have footwear that will be able to handle the elements during the winter, and in Michigan, that is a necessity!

All-in-all I highly recommend these books to anyone that is looking for a versatile boot that can withstand the winter elements. This was a stylish boot that will make any young girl smile!
