Taking a break from the countless posts about Hangzhou, to share a great piece of news! I got 3rd for the Marimo contest and won myself two Marimos in a beautiful apple bottle!

As promised I wanted to share this Marimos with my reader and I have picked Joieil as the winner of this Marimo! It wasn’t a difficult decision because it seems like most people don’t fancy Marimos! What a pity!

So Joieil! Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of a pair of beautiful Marimos! I hope it brings you great joy everyday while looking at it!

Red Ribbons Giveaway.

December 1, 2009 in Events & Happenings, Freebies, Personal Recommendations, Rants and Opinions by somethingboutrenes | 6 comments

Read the news and it reminded me it’s World AIDS Day today. It has been more than a year since our “Hearts of Hope” project with the Patient Care Centre and I would like to take this opportunity to shout out to all SbR readers to support this cause, to not discriminate this group of people and to give them a second chance to live a fulfilling life.

I’ve collected a bunch of these beautifully handmade beaded red ribbons when I was in the project and I would like to give these red ribbons to my readers.

Dear male readers,

The following entry is meant for the girls. So please scroll right pass this entry and go read on other random entries if you’ve not already done so.

Regards,
SbR

I saw this product on the shelf recently and fell in love with the packaging but was also curious yet skeptical about their claimed revolutionary technology and the pricey price tag that comes with it.

kotex luxe

Through surfing CozyCot – the #1 Women’s sites for 3 straight years – I came across a banner screaming “Get Your Free Trial Here!” and was thrilled to know that I can try them for free! I love samples! I love the fact that you can try out new products before making any purchase! That’s zero financial and product risks involved! Did I mention I’m actually a whisper-converted-to-kotex user because of a sampling campaign?! From the marketer’s point of view, sampling though costly can be effective if it is accurately targeted to the right audience.

But here’s the catch (there’s no free meal in this world), Kotex expects you to join their mailing list and fill out a simple survey (which can be easily completed in 2 minutes) before mailing the samples to your house!

Kotex Luxe, the first ultrathin pad that gives you breakthrough Fusion Technology* combining dryness and comfort with just 1 pad. No more compromises!

  • MicroMax® Core Super absorbent ultrathin core to help maximize protection.

  • Anti-leak channels Channel fluid within the pad to help prevent leakage all around.

Trying to clean up my room and I’ve got some CDs to giveaway instead of allowing them to collect dust in my cluttered room. Most of these CDs were given to me from my previous internship and it is in a pretty good condition.

So if anyone out there would like to have these CDs do drop me a message [I can mail them (you pay) or pass them to you], otherwise I would hand them over to the Salvation Army.
