Are you Smarterer?

I had the chance with BzzAgent to try and review Smarterer.  A cute name for a website that wants to help you show everyone what you know.  It's a website that has you take quizzes about popular social media or other products, get your score and then you get to show what you know.  And as anyone who is on social media, we all know we all loves to take quizzes and share the results.




I logged in and took the Bzzagent quiz. I didn't know everything there was to know about being a bzzagent, so it was a great learning experience, as the same question, posed in various forms, would come back up, giving me a chance to show that I had learned from my errors. As I went, it showed me what the right answer was and where I stood compared to other people. That really got me going and I strived harder to get a good score.

The only thing I did not like was that each question was timed, not allowing for a chance to look anything up. Current knowledge on the top of your head only! Not a bad thing, to be honest. Too often we rely on a quick fix and we as a society don't really know nearly as much as we think we do, because quick information is always right at our fingertips.

They've got quizzes for Facebook, Twitter, {hotoshop and much more! Give it a try and see just how Smart(erer) you are.

Are you Smart(erer) than me?

Ristorante Pizza is here!

Last month I posted about a new campaign for Bzzagent, Ristorante pizza!  A few weeks ago, the Bzzkit arrived.  Here's what came in it:


Coupons for free pizzas so we can try it, some regular $1.50 off coupons, some fridge magnets and notepads, and the information pamphlet.   We're ready to try some!

Market Basket had a GREAT deal on these pizzas.  2/$5.  I picked up the free pizzas and a couple more.  The rest I gave away to friends and family and told them about the great deal going on at Market Basket.

That night, my daughter picked one out and we put it in the oven.  Here's what the finished product looked like:



What a good looking pizza!  We dug in, and it was REALLY good!  The thin crust was SO crispy.  It was light and flaky.  The best thin crust I have tasted on a frozen pizza.  My husband had one as well, and he really liked the mozzarella pizza, except for the diced tomatoes.  While he said they didn't taste bad, they also did not taste as fresh as the rest of the pizza did, so he just picked them off.  Overall, this was fantastic.  The only complaint was that we all wished they were a bit bigger.  In this house, that size is more of a two person pizza!

Try them and let me know how much you liked it!

New Campaign for Bzzagent!

Who doesn't LOVE pizza?  With 5 kids and a busy husband, pizza is one of this households best foods.  I'll be reviewing Ristorante Pizza shortly for Bzzagent and am looking forward to trying it with my family.  After all, it's Italy's number one selling frozen pizza... it must be good!!

Crosspens

Recently I became a reviewer for products for Bzzagent.   I received a Cross pen to try in the mail.  To my surprise, it was packaged very nicely, so nice it could have been perfect for a gift!  Another lovely surprise was the interchangeable pencil lead.  What a nice thought to go from pen to mechanical pencil if I wanted to, in such a nice instrument.  It was so much more stylish then my Dad's cross pen which has a classic feel.  This one was still sleek and felt nice in my hand, but was a bit modern with a sleek silver body and a detailed honeycomb pattern.



The one I received is black ink, I prefer blue.  Looking over the website, it's so easy to order refill ink, including blue ink!  I will be so happy to use the blue ink.  Even not liking black ink all that much, it still wrote so beautifully and nicely.  No gook, no clumps, just smooth writing.  A nice pen really does make a difference.  I'm tempted to leave the pencil in though, that's such a nice treat.  Right now, you can get 20% off by using the coupon code "SHOPCROSS" on cross.com or 20% off at participating independent retailers.
