Bzzzzzzzzzzz

Have you heard aboout BzzAgent?

I hadn't before I entered the blogging world...but let me tell you, I received my first campaign about 2 weeks ago (yes I am very behind in blogging about it...but I'm behind in all aspects of my life these days...deal with it! lol) and I can't wait until the next one.

You can click here to learn more about BzzAgent...but the summary of how it works is...they send you free samples of products to try and then you Bzz about them...or in other words tell people about them. They come with coupons that you can give out to your friends and family and really I just think it's a fantastic way to try new things. I know if it wasn't for this campaign the boy and I likely would have never tried the Nesquick Less Sugar Drinking Boxes. Now the boy is hooked and they've been added to our regular grocery shopping list.

I'm not a big milk drinker...and for that reason I hardly ever offer it to the boy...I know I'm horrible, because I know he likes it...but unless he asks me for it he usually gets juice or water. Chalk it up to mommy brain...I really have to make a very conscious effort to ensure he is drinking a good amount of milk...but now that I know he likes the Nesquick boxes, I've replaced the fruit juice I usually send with him for lunch with the milk.

They sent us a sample of each kind to try...so that's a total of 9 drinking boxes - 3 in each flavour, consisting of chocolate, strawberry and vanilla. Can you guess which one the boy loves most??? Definitely the chocolate...but I know he really did enjoy each kind.

The fact that these particular drinking boxes have less sugar really is an added bonus. We've been trying to cut out as much sugar as we can in our house (not so much for the boy...but in general) so I was impressed that they had less sugar and still tasted great.

All in all I was very impressed and thoroughly enjoyed this campaign!

Free stuff always rocks and the fact The Boy likes it is an added bonus!

Now if they could find something cool to do with spinach I'd be estatic. :)

Oh I love BzzAgent! I'm not a big milk fan either but Aiden asks for it all the time. I've had to start limiting him to 3 glasses a day!

Hmmm, I hadn't even heard of BzzAgent, but it sounds great! I love freebies! :)

My oldest LOVES milk, I really had to limit it when she was little because she'd want to only drink milk and then not eat anything. My middle won't touch it. Never has liked it at all. I'm not a milk drinker, myself, but I'll go for anything with chocolate in it :)

Very cool! I am about to do my first product testing within the next couple of weeks. You're right, it's a great way to try new things for free and maybe get a new favorite...something.

I was doing them but was having a hard time understanding how it all worked.

I had seen posts about Bzzagent but never opened a thread about it, thanks for the heads up! I'm checking it out now!

actually I heard about the buzz agency once but I forgot all about it til reading it in your blog just now. Thanks for the reminder. I'll have to look into it again, I briefly looked before but like I mentioned I forgot about it. I'm bad at drinking milk too, even though I do like it, I just don't like too much of it. generally I will reach for the milk when I have cookies or something like that that makes it taste even better. :)
