Great Giveaway: Cleanpen from Claxton Creative Ends 12/19

Sponsored by Tomoson.com



Cleanpen™ from Claxton Creative is really awesome.  When you go to the bank, the school, many places all over town you encounter pens that have been used by lots of people, many who may be sick, so you know they are covered with germs.  Cleanpen™ elminates bacteria and common viruses from communal pens.  Simply pass the pen through Cleanpen™ and its anti-microbial sponge kills more than 99 percent of germs on contact.  I love Cleanpen™, I use it often.  I have a support group I attend and I've been wanting a way to clean the pens there, so I loved receiving Cleanpen™.  It's truly an excellent idea.  The only problem I have had is leaking, but I just keep it in a snack size Ziploc bag.


BUY IT!
Cleanpen™ can be purchased from Santa Can't Get Sick for a limited time for only $12.95 with FREE shipping. Each Kit includes: the Cleanpen™ Unit, two sponges, detachable stand, and information on ordering refills.  Kit can also be order with a custom carry pouch for only $16.95 or with a monogrammed carry pouch for only $19.95.

WIN IT!
One lucky Hot Mom Tips reader will win a Cleanpen™ of their own!  Giveaway ends 11:59 PM 19 December, 2010

Website Review: Auto Insurance Select

Auto Insurance Select is a great website for finding the most affordable, best auto insurance quotes for you.  Not only can you get quotes from companies available in your area but they also offer valuable information.  They have some really great information in the form of both articles and videos. 

Their current article is "7 Tips For Selecting an Auto Insurance Provider" that provides some really great tips on what to look for when shopping for auto insurance.  Some of the articles I found most helpful include "Factors that Affect Your Rates" and "Top Reasons to Compare." I had no idea gender plays a role in rates.They also have an "Auto Insurance FAQ" that answers some questions such as the need for auto insurance, finding affordable insurance,  finding your state requirements and more.  Also if you register you can submit your own questions so you can be sure you're getting the best deal and exactly what you need as well as answer any questions you have or clear up any confusion.  

Along with their informative articles, they also have many videos available for viewing.  The videos are divided into the following categories: Auto Insurance, Car Reviews, Car Safety, Car Shows, Car Race, Concept Cars, Driving Tips, Funny Videos, Monster Trucks, . Movie Trailers, TV Commercials, TV Shows,  and SUV.  They have several videos that are great for teens learning to drive like "Young Driver’s Common Myths" and "Real Consequences: Teenage Drunk Driving"

If you're in the market for auto insurance check out Auto Insurance Select first, gather your information, compare your rates, you'll be glad you did.

Website Review: RepairPal.com

I just found a great new site that can save you time and money, RepairPal.com.  I signed up for free and registered my car. I was able to see information specific to my car such as recall information.  I can also save service information, what work I've had done on the car and where.  There are also user submitted questions and answers.  My car has been freaking for months and none of us could figure out what was causing it, I was able to find an answer on RepairPal.com.  I am so excited to have found an answer!

You don't have to register your car to use RepairPal.com.  From their Car Info tab you simply put in the make, model and year and you get a lot of useful information.  Take a look at the 2001 Ford Escort page.  You'll see Ratings and Reviews, Questions and Answers, Common Problems, and Recalls and TSB's.  This information is not only useful for vehicles you own but also ones you are considering purchasing.

I love their Auto Repair Encyclopedia.  When you look up the part you're looking for, such as a timing belt or water pump, you get information on what it is, how it's replaced, best practices and common symptoms.  They also list recent estimates for that part.  From that page you can ask a question, get an estimate or find a repair shop.


I am so glad I found RepairPal.com.  I finally know what is wrong with my car, about how much it should cost and where to take it.  I'm actually very proud of myself because we've had 4 men trying to figure out what was wrong for months.
