Flu Season Control #Staples #StaplesFluKit

{Momma Disclosure~2014: I did not receive compensation for this post but I did receive Staples products in exchange for this review from Staples. The statements below are both my true and honest opinions. Staples also provided stats from their 4th annual Flu Season Survey.}

It's "Winter". Which for most Houstonians means, crazy weather. One day cold, one day hot sometimes both all within hours. Today it's cold! A nice 29 degrees, I know most states are laughing at us but it's Houston we are not that use to it. Who knows what tomorrow may hold {only because I don't keep track of the weather.} What I do know is that for about 2 months now I have been sick, a lot and so have many around me including my family.

Started with a sore throat, by Thanksgiving a full on upper respiratory infection. And, ever since then it's been constant congestion, snotty nose, and an achy cough. Yep. Flu season is in full effect. Not sure what kind of germs are flying around but working in small areas and living with two toddlers you can never be too prepared.

Thankfully Staples has all you need this flu season to help not only prevent the spread of icky germs but keep those germs from spreading once you have been attacked by every symptom possible. I always say that the most difficult place to start is at home but it's where most germs travel to and from.

But, thanks to Staples we now have clean hands, clean surfaces and Kleenex to catch the germs!



Our Office Illness Prevention Kit included:

  • Clorox Clean Up Wipes
  • Lysol Antibacterial Cleaner
  • Purell Hand Sanitizer
  • Soft Soap Hand Soap
  • Kleenex Tissue Box 


As a Momma who works outside the home missing work and constantly going to doctor's visits are not an option. Therefore, Staples' message is prevention! Which, I completely agree with! Preventive medicine is the best, saves you time and money. If you want to create this spiffy kit, it's great to carry to the office or maybe donate it to your child's classroom! My little ones and I have been taking some preventive measures to ensure clean healthy habits!

{Back-to-School} #staples

{Momma Disclosure: I did not receive compensation for this post but I did receive Staples products in exchange for this review from Staples. The statements below are both my true and honest opinions.}

I still remember it like it was yesterday; the first day of school! Summer vacation is over. You get to see all your friends again and meet all your new teachers. Your stomach is in a knot, your brand new outfit and shoes stand out. The most important part; well at least for me it was, I was a bit of a nerd girl...the backpack filled with school supplies. You remember? The brand new wide ruled notebooks, your trapper-keeper, and of course your number 2 pencils. It was a fun time, these days kids are fully equipped with so many new gadgets and trends and how can they not be with all the new school supplies that Staples carries.

Staples was generous enough to send me samples of all the new gear for heading back to school this year.

I immediately took care of using it all.

Here is what we got:

A. Studio C Neon Zip It Notebook
B. Staples Flexible Calculator {Which is so cute and I am totally taking to work!}
C. Neon Tube Pencil Pouch
D. Martha Stewart Home Office with Avery No-Iron Clothing Labels, 1/2"X1 3/4",24 Pack {LOVE!!!!!}
E. Staples Fashion Portfolios
F. Martha Stewart Home Office with Avery Message Board, Petal
G. Staples BETTER binder, Screen Print

Some of the awesome ways that Staples is helping give back as you spend is with the REWARD-A-CLASSROOM program; when parents shop for students they receive rewards for the teach of their choice!

Another deal that I would love to take advantage of is; the Binder Recycle program, you get $2 off a new binder when you bring in your old binder during the back-to-school season!

Staples also offers weekly back-to-school deals, some as low as a penny just check out their weekly add at: www.staples.com/weeklyad

BACKTOSCHOOLSTAPLES

Here is how we used it:

I quickly filled the binder and folder with the kids daily daycare/school work. I filled my pouch with Cami's hair ties, they get lost all the time. I used our Martha Stewart labels on the extra clothes that we send to daycare in case the kids have an accident. The Zip It notebook I used for all the extra Momma business cards that I hand out, and  like I said I will be taking the calculator to work for my daily number crunching. I also set up our nifty bulletin board to start pinning important school work and notes.

My kids are not yet of school age but they do attend a daycare. Organization is key in my house and I am always trying to find useful ways to keep our home under control. Staples helped me with this!
