One of my favorite places to go enjoy a summer concert is the DTE Energy Music Theatre in Clarkson Michigan. Its easy to get to just off of I-75. The cool thing about this concert hall is it is outside. When you enter you climb a huge hill, then when you get to the top you go down and sit on the grass. I always bring my own chair or blanket. It is a wise idea to keep personal belongings in...

I originally started with this company because of the product and stayed with them because of the opportunities they offer their distributors. A friend of mine asked me to try this fantastic energy drink a couple years back. She said if I didn't like it she would not mention it again. Thinking this would be an easy way to get her off my back, I agreed to try the drink. She sent me a few sam...

If there ever was an Energy Meter that deserved the SMART label, it's the UPM EM-100!   Why We Needed It When we first received our newly 'adjusted' Hydro bill last week we were sick.  Somewhere within  our home must live a ravenous  colony of Energy Vampires!  What other explanation to give for why our normally average 1300 to 1800 kw per billing period hom...

Who doesn’t want/need more energy? This product has highlighted on their packaging “GUARANTEED BURST OF ENERGY” I was working 2 jobs and a single mom of 3 kids and was always feeling run down…so of course this caught my attention. Just so that we are all clear on this , THIS IS NOT A MEAL REPLACEMENT SHAKE. This is a vitamin, mineral and protein energy shake (supple...

Kickers 80 hour energy spray is one of the most affordable ways to get a boost of energy when you need it most. The package makes claims of no jitters, and no crash. I have been using this product for a week and haven't noticed a crash yet! It can cause jitters if you take to much though. Kickers is easy to use. You spray four squirts under your tounge, and wait 30 seconds before swall...

Vector Energy Bars by Kellogs come four to a box and retail at about $4.36.  This is quite a bit more than I usually spend on granola-type products, but I had a coupon, so I decided to give them a try. I must say that I have a rather neutral opinion of most health foods or vitamin-enriched products.  On one hand, I'm all for eating healthy, and am particularily concerned about eat...

I am not an energy-booster drinking kind of person but I do once in a while when my spirit is willing but the flesh is super weak. I think this time is that time when I need an extra jolt on whatever is left of my energy. I just felt so drained the whole week because of stress at work.I tried my husband's energy drink and found the Extra Joss rather tasty and limey compared to the other dri...

I have really pale skin that doesn't tan well, so I'm always looking out for products that promise to give me a tan without having to go in the sun.  I've tried many different types of sunless tanners, and recently I gave Dove Energy Glow a try.  First, the scent is too bad, unlike many tanners.  As the lotion is drying, you can get a subtle tanner smell, but it is no...

I got a pair of Skechers Sport Energy 2 Headway shoes about three years ago. Although I don't wear them on a daily basis, or even a weekly basis, I would say that as shoes go, they are fairly durable.I got these shoes because I wanted a pair that went with jeans and since I got them in blue, I can only wear them occasionally when my outfit calls for that particular ...

Well I usually drink RedBull whenever I want a drink other than water, orange juice, or alcohol. I saw essn's Energy at Costco a few weekends ago, and figured 20 bucks for 24 of them was considerably cheaper than RedBull, which is about 35 for 24 at Costco. I liked the packaging and look of the bottle, and it seemed to be a nutritious, natural drink with some good stuff in it.I've finis...

I received these binoculars as a gift.  I have to say that I have not used them much, but that’s mostly because I own a pair that I like a whole lot better.  But there is nothing basically wrong with these.First, the bling.  These binoculars have a semi-soft rubbery coating that feels nice in your hands.  They come in nice colors.  Mine are blue, which they call &...

This is just one of many products my husband and I have tried on our trek to find HIM the most effective yet natural energy aid. We decided to try this one for a number of reasons the first one being that it was on sale when we placed an order for some other supplements online. This “Fatigued to Fantastic” Daily Energy B Complex states that their formula is helpful in “suppo...

Move over sugar-packed energy drinks, there's a healthy one out! It is called "Verve!", and it is wonderful.Verve is produced by the same company that makes Vemma, a liquid nutritional supplement I have already reviewed here at SR. Verve contains full spectrum of vitamins and 67 minerals our body needs to function well. It also has mangosteen, which is possibly the world's mos...

I was in my wash room a few months ago and found water on the floor.  At first I thought my kids had spilt something.  Come to find out, my hot water heater was leaking.I called my dad.  He came and said there was no hope for this one.My mother was in town at the time, so I called her.  I asked her to stop by Lowes and pick me up one.  I told her to get a wate...

I have owned a Sharp Twin Energy Upright since 1996. It looks just like new and runs the same. I thought the vacuum was a bit pricey when I bought it back then. My husband couldn't believe I paid that price. The vacuum has more than paid  for itself. It is blue in color  with the back of the tank gray. The handle is chrome with a gray hand grip.  It has a really long cord (no...

I tried this vitamin because I found myself without a lot of energy to get through my busy day. I have been pleasantly surprised that it does help. You won't find yourself speeding through your tasks, but it does keep me more alert and gives me some extra energy. This is a multi-vitamin, so you will want to replace this with whatever you are taking now. The cost is about the same as you wou...

this perfume is my daily perfume. It is my favourite scent of all time, and it seems to be often overlooked in stores as it's Versace, and seems like it would be expensive. However, the price is just like any other perfume, but the scent has all the complexity you'd expect in a high end product. The first sniff smells like rich orange juice, with a hint of spice. The second sniff s...
