Friday’s Favorite Five

Week #6 and Happy Friday Sweet Friends!! Each Friday I share my Favorite Five things from the past week. They may be products I’ve tried, some way I’ve saved $$, an activity I did…in a nutshell ~ the top 5 things that brought a SMILE to my FACE!

Excellent Customer Service

Silly as it may seem, I am thrilled when I receive excellent customer service! Unfortunately, these days, it seems harder to come by BUT yesterday the folks at Kohls made me SMILE!

When they say expect GREAT Things, they mean it.

I purchased a Krups coffee maker for work last November.  Over the next few months it started to dispense less and less water.  By yesterday we were lucky to get a shot of coffee…no less a cup.  I know as an elementary school teacher, a shot of caffeine may be just what I need…but the taste??…YUCK!!
I loaded it back in the box (I always keep boxes for this kind of stuff) and went to Kohls.  I was prepared to be aggressive, if needed….but was delighted when they gave me a swift exchange and I was on my way!  Thanks Kohls…No wonder I LOVE to shop at your store!!

Spring Time Cleaning

To be totally honest…Not my favorite pastime…but as the beautiful sunshine streamed through my windows I noticed how filthy they were.  Since my house is on a hill the windows are too high for me to reach with out a ladder.  My sweet hubby bought me a Pro Grip Window cleaning kit. (I wasn’t mad…I wanted it!)

This system made it easy to clean the windows without lugging the ladder around the house.  It was really easy so maybe I’ll do it more often…. maybe….

Shop Local

Last weekend I went the local Farmer’s Market at the beach.  They had an amazing assortment of fresh veggies and plants.  I am a HUGE proponent of supporting Local business.  You can read more about that here. I also found an amazing orchid to add to the nest! Want to see my orchids? Click here.

Newest Addition to the Nest

Burger Press

I shared my favorite recipe for Burgers this week, if you missed it click here.

We always use an old school Tupperware burger press…that was my Nanas!  Wasn’t surprised when someone commented to ask me where I got it…I looked…and they STILL carry them!!

Koolest Koozie EVER!

I discovered a VERY COOL item in my shopping endeavors last weekend. It is called a One Freaker…It fits EVERY bottle/container!!  I couldn’t believe this little old thing would streatch out to do that….

So I tried it…

They even show it around a bottle of wine to give as a gift….
Adorable right??  I bought one for me and another for one of my dearest friends who has a big birthday coming up….now to find the wine to wrap it around!

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
