Jelly Beans - Oh NUTS!


Got a sweet tooth? Have we got a cool site for you! www.ohnuts.com offers 53 assortments of jelly beans with over 30 different flavors. What a selection! Some of the mouth watering flavors include strawberry cheesecake, Tiramisu, lemon meringue and chocolate. If you like extraordinary flavors, they offer hot tamales, Baja Margarita, licorice, and toasted marshmallow. You could buy individual kinds or buy them in a mixture of assortments at mostly $4.99 per lb. It is to me a bit on the pricey side, but as any saavy internet shopper would do, I already found coupon codes for my favorite kinds of jelly beans. As soon as you google "ohnut.com" (the website that sells jelly beans) and "coupon code," BAM! a whole list of sites offering coupons for any product from onhut.com would pop up.

Honestly, as a parent of a young child, I am not thrilled by the idea of buying candy for children, but jelly beans can be so much more than just candy. There are tons of activities you can do with your children using jelly beans, math, problem solving, story telling. You name it, they got an jelly-bean activity related to it. Finding those activities is just a click of a few buttons on your web browser. Again, go see what they have for both you and your children on Jelly beans.

Alliance-Enviro

Being bombarded by environmental news daily, at first I thought Aliance-Enviro is just another blog about "going green." Well, once I click on their website, I found out that it is exactly what our house needs! Professional services for air duct cleaning, mold removal, pest control etc. The site provides extensive customer testimonies that offer very positive feedbacks of Alliance Environmental Group's services. It features a "Free Report" zone where property owners or managers may request comprehensive information on different enviornmental subject matters. The most interesting service that they offer is cleaning up trama scene. I didn't know that there are professionals for such services!! In the days of CSI, who knows, someone around your neighborhood might need it. The biggest assurance Alliance Environmental Group's services are the photos that they post on the site. They have photos of their recent big projects including removing asbestos contaminated drywall and joint compounds from a four-star hotel in Anaheim near Disneyland, and elimnating molds from 19 country club homes, and cleaning up after a lime spill in the City of Burbank. Photos speak more than a thousand words indeed. The only drawback of Asbestos Advice and Removal is they only offer services in CA thus far.
