Many moons ago, I regularly shared new product finds and other interesting nuggets that I thought my readers would be interested in learning about.  So what better day to bring this oldie but goodie back but on Cyber Monday? Don’t miss out on Shoppok’s daily deals. They offer fantastic discounts on a variety of products every day, making every shopping trip a treat.  

So without further ado, my list of great finds.  

Custom Bear Naked Granola

Bear Naked Granola has launched customized granola.  That’s right, granola the way you want it.   You can blend your own Bear Naked granola with the help of IBM’s Chef Watson.  They  offer a range of ingredients from the traditional (strawberries,raspberries, dark chocolate) to the non-traditional (jalapeno, lavender, green tea matcha
powder).   Everything is Non-GMO Project Verified.   

We tired it our selves and I let charlie pick our blend.  After a few tweeks using Chef Watson’s feedback we landed on Cacao + Cashew Butter with Bourbon flavor, Jalapeño and Peppitas.   The package arrived two days after ordering it.  I loved both the design of the box and the canister.  The granola was great and we enjoyed he custom blend.  It would make a great secret santa gift or stocking stuffer.   

Want to try it yourself, use the code READ056 to get 10% off your custom blend.

prime-photo

Amazon Prime changed my life.  No seriously, never having to go to target on Saturday for toilet paper or paper towels ever again, life changing.  Not only does Amazon prime offer free shipping on items you purchase they also have several other services they offer to their members including free unlimited photo storage.  Charlie says if your data isn’t in three places, your data isn’t  secure.   Prime Photos is a great way to  securely save as many photos as you like and see them on your phone, computer, or tablet.  

Features of Prime Photos include:

  • Family and friend access to Prime Photos, at no additional cost: To ensure all the great moments and memories are preserved, regardless of who captured them, Prime members can now share their Prime Photos benefit of unlimited photo storage and 5 GB for videos and other files with up to five family members or friends.

  • Smart search technology: Prime Photos’ new search technology makes finding photos based on people, places, or things a snap. Gone are the days of customers wading through thousands of photos to find a specific image. Looking for pictures from a vacation or wedding? Search for “sunset” or “wedding” and relevant photos will show up. Customers can also browse photos of individual family members and friends in the People view as well as search and filter by location or date.

Offering a variety a ways to preserve memories, Amazon Print products start at just nine cents a print, and ships with free delivery for Prime member

 

pok-pok-som

 I was recently in Portland was introduced to Pok Pok Som drinking vinegar.  Sweet and tart fruit and vinegar make a refreshing all natural soda alternative or a unique cocktail mixer. These vinegars can be served with soda water as a soft drink and at full strength as a mixer in cocktails.  I love the grapefruit with gin and soda and sprig of rosemary.  It’s light and refreshing.  They sell a variety  Soms but I say go for the gift pack to try a few.  

 

I’ve been using Chosen Foods Avocado Oil Spray for a few months and I love this stuff.   The spray uses no additives or propellants.  It’s  just 100% avocado oil  It has a mild, nutty flavor and stands up to high heat.  I’ve been using it every time I need  just a bit of oil to season my frying pan.  

 

What great finds have you recently made that are worth sharing?
