Pop Up Displays

I'm sure some of you have never heard of pop up displays before, because before this, I have never heard of them.  If I haven't heard of them, chances are at least one of you haven't either (at least, that's my theory).  Pop up displays, or pop up booths, are large portable display walls.  The fold and open up like an EZ UP canopy, according to camelbackdisplays.com.  You can get pop up trade show displays in different shapes and sizes, and you can also choose to either add your graphics to them, or order them with graphics already ready for your displaying needs.  Personally, I think that is pretty cool.

Trade show pop ups  come in a case (and here is the cool part) you can use the case as a podium if you want or need one.  The displays can be used just about anywhere, for example, they can be used at trade shows, events, job fairs, retail stores, etc.  There is no limiting to what you can use a pop up display for.  Bubble kits and 3D displays are also available and can be used.  Table top pop ups are available for those who cannot afford the pricer pop ups and are built in a smaller version.  Graphic "skins" are also available, and you can velcro your additional graphics to the skins for a polished display.

Flirt! Cosmetics

My mom and I went to Khols today to do some shopping.  They were having a good promotion going on and we had 3 $10 gift cards.  I ended up in the makeup section (because we all know I'm obsessed..).  Khols' makeup section is small, but you can try on their products, which I love. 

They carry the brand Flirt!  and Khols is the only store I have ever seen to carry it in case you were wondering.  I got a new lipstick (normally $12) on sale for $10 and some change.  With my $10 off card, I ended up getting it for 83 cents.  I was excited!

I got the shade "Poppy".

It is a very pretty pink, almost coral-ly with a high sheen and some sparkle to it.  It goes on really smooth and feels hydrating (which I love because most lip sticks don't feel hydrating for me, they feel like they are making my lips look prune-y unless I put gloss over it.)

Anyways, I just thought I would let you girlies know about the cosmetic line in case you haven't heard of it before, or if you were wondering if the line was any good.  I have not tried any of the other Flirt! products, but if you go to your local Khols store, you can try on anything you want before you buy.  : )

Having a little fun...

Here is a short video of my dogs playing with my dad's mini sheep.  The big dog is Lucy and the small one is Tinker.  The sheep's names are:  Brom, Nelly, Riley and Sugar.   I'd tell you which ones are which, but the video is short and you really can't differentiate.    The song playing is Joan Jett's Bad Reputation.

Chain-of-Friends Contest

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Hampton Hotels. All opinions are 100% mine.

Have you guys heard of the Hampton Chain of Friends Sweepstakes?  The grand prize is awesome and I'm sure just about everyone would love to win.  The grand prize winner receives a free stay for themselves and 100 of their friends at a Hampton for one weekend (2 nights!) plus $5000 to help pay the tax for the weekend.  Isn't that one crazy awesome prize??

I don't have anywhere close to 100 friends, so I would probably just start handing out invites to all the hot guys walking around my campus.  Haha, I'm just kidding.. maybe..  Who would you invite if you won the sweepstakes?  Would you invite your crazy cousins that pull pranks?  All of your extended family members for a huge reunion party?  Maybe you were in the army and you want to have a big get together with the guys and show off your wives now that your home.

Whoever you invite, can you imagine how much fun you could have with 100 people staying at one hotel?  That would be some crazy fun!  And, everyone can enter in the sweepstakes.  You do not have to have previously stayed at a Hampton, and you do not have to be a Hilton honor member in order to enter.

And, while the grand prize is awesome, 100 aditional winners will also be chosen to receive a free weekend stay at one of the Hamptons for themselves and 3 friends.

Entering is very easy and only takes about one minute.

Yay It's Friday!

My college started back up this week, and it's been a long-ish week for me.  At some points, I felt like it lasted forever, and some parts felt super quick.  And, now I'm so happy it's Friday!  I just got out of class an hour or so ago and now I can just lounge around.  I do have homework, but at least I don't have to wake up early to do that, right?  Haha : )

How was your week?  Did it go well or not so good?  Did a hot firemen sweep you off your feet at some point, or did you spend quiet time with Grey's Anatomy?  Let me know  and have a great weekend : )

TV

Almost everyone watches TV.  Children watch their cartoons, toddlers watch Barney, teenagers watch The Real World and adults watch it all.  It used to be 'cable or no cable' where televisions were concerned.  Now a days, however, is a different story. 

Sure, you can still have your 'cable or no cable', but you can also have a television working via dish, local tv satellite, etc.  There are just so many options!  Then, it's 'what package do I want to get' and 'what package can I afford?' 

Direct TV is a name you have probably heard before.  Maybe you know someone who uses their services, maybe that person is you, or maybe you just saw one of their advertisements.  Well, Direct TV is a partner with www.localtv-satellite.com.  Because of this, I feel like I can trust them and their services to know that they do, and offer,  a good job. 

You can check out localtv-satellite.com to see for yourself the packages they offer and how you can get free HD for life.
