My First Ever Imperfect Foods Order

Food

Imperfect Foods – My favorite way to get affordable organic produce and pantry items. They also work towards eliminating food waste and they support many programs that give back in the community. Check out my post on Imperfect Foods to learn more. When you place your first order using my link, you’ll get $10 off!

Homeschooling

Megageex – I love Megageex as a math supplement for practicing math facts in a fun way! We have their Multiplication books (vol 1 & 2), the Division book, and the Multiplication Games pack. My son loves that he gets to complete puzzles, art, and games as he learns his math facts. We both love that he’s learning about famous historical figures – artists, inventors, scientists, mathematicians, etc. – as he learns his math facts. It keeps things interesting! Finally, I love that Megageex includes lots of positive thinking and growth mindset messages throughout the pages! As a former high school math teacher, I know how important it is for students to have a strong foundation of math facts (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division), and I highly recommend these books for a fun way to master these facts!

Our Favorite Pencils * – I love these pencils, and they were the favorites requested by my child’s teachers in the public school system (before we began homeschooling). I love buying them off of Amazon in bulk (especially when there’s a great sale). You can purchase them unsharpened here * or pre-sharpened here. *

Essential Oils

Young Living Essential Oils – I have been using Young Living oils and products for almost four years now and I’m so happy we made this change! We’ve ditched all of our products that include endocrine disrupters (cleaning products, beauty products – shampoos, conditioners, soaps, face wash, toothpaste, etc, wall plug-ins and candles, and so much more!) and replaced them with YL’s products that are made with all natural ingredients. The difference in our health, my skin, and even our stress levels, is amazing! I started with the essential oils kit with a diffuser (the desert mist and the aria are my favorites), but I’ve also purchased the Thieves kit and the Ningxia Red kit as well! If you like DIY’s, check out my 25 days of ways to use your Premium Starter Kit. When you get your starter kit though me, you will receive a welcome kit of goodies from me to help you learn how to use the oils and items in your starter kit, an invitation to my private facebook group, and you’ll get my individualized help with your kit. I’m so excited to help you get started!

Glass Spray Bottles * – These are the glass spray bottles I use for my Thieves Household Cleaner. I make a label with my vinyl cutter and add it to the bottle, but these come with labels you can use. I like to keep one in my kitchen, one in each bathroom, and one in the laundry room (I use it as a stain remover).

Roller Bottles * – These are the glass roller bottles I use* when I make my own essential oil rollers, whether I’m diluting a favorite (like Digize), or creating my own blend (like lavender + cedarwood for calming down before bed). Try these if you’d like a larger set of them. *

Discount or Points Sites or Apps

Swagbucks – I’ve been using Swagbucks for many, many years. My favorite way to earn swagbucks is to shop through their links to earn points back on purchases I’m making anways (I do this anytime I shop online, but especially when I buy my kids’ clothes from Old Navy, and when I purchase all of our Christmas items on Black Friday each year). You can also earn points from daily polls, taking surveys, participating in their trivia games, finding swagcodes, using swagbucks as your search engine, and so much more! Adding the swagbutton on your laptop or desktop makes things even easier.

National Consumer Panel – Use my code 782B2B to sign up. I’ve been a member of NCP since 2013! When I first started, you had to use a handheld scanner in your home, but now it’s so easy with an app on your phone (NCP Mobile). How does it work? Each week you scan your purchases (grocery stores, vending machines, gas stations, etc) into the app. The more consistent you are with scanning, the more points you earn. You can earn even more points by answering surveys on the app or online. I like to save my points up and then redeem them for Amazon gift cards, but there are other options too. Go to their website, sign up and use my code 782B2B as your referral code.

Check back here, as I will continue to add to this list as I have more codes to share with you!
