Today's Big Deal Smells Terrific!

So today's Big Deal is a bit off of the beaten Big Deal path. This is in regards to Scentsy Consultant, Kacy Lovelace's page. She is the Scentsy consultant who provided us with our last drawing prize.

If you are not aware of what Scentsy is, they make beautiful warmers of different sizes for a wax that melts under low heat and smells oh so good. I actually have 6 warmers in my own home. I have 2 full-size and 4 plug-in warmers and I have tried dozens of scents in the 2 1/2 years I have been using Scentsy. The prices are good. Even when I run out of wax (which is rare), the warmers make great night lights. :)

Anyhoo...the scents last for quite some time. I tend to get 40+ hours out of a single $5 bar. That's a better value than candles with the same degree of scent. Plus, no fire means no soot

There are tons of products. Scentsy Buddies are popular. My daughter has the pig and LOVES it. I also enjoy the room sprays and pretty much everything since smell can have an influence on mood. ;)

The Miche Bag - A Great Gift or for Yourself

Alright, I am admittedly one of those who carries a purse until I just can't anymore. It is not usually on my priority to replace, especially when I'm toting around an uber cute Vera Bradley that gets tons of compliments.

However, I've seen the Miche Bag advertised on TV and it came across my screen today, so I thought I'd make it today's BIG DEAL.

The Miche Bag is the ideal way to give your purse a facelift every day. You change the outer shell to change it up each day. There are all sorts of neat custom options and, of course, that means different price levels. This could make a great gift for mom, for yourself, or the other ladies in your life.

Great Fragrance Deal for Mother's Day

Perfume Country has every fragrance you could possibly imagine. I was searching some of my faves and found them for way cheaper than I usually get them. I'm a Cool Water fan and the savings was about 30% compared to what I usually pay. In addition to the discount prices on the site, they also have an INSTANT COUPON for an ADDITIONAL 15% OFF. The purchase of 5 or more perfumes or men's cologne gets you free shipping.
This is a good find for Mother's Day since you can find mom's favorite fragrance very easily. The site is easy to navigate and it is hard to choose since they carry EVERYTHING. :)
