Pain reliever dupe

Image
 Calling this one a product dupe might not be quite right. It is however a product for which there is a cheaper version that works just as good, and you also don't get swindled into falling for the "migraine fee."  What is the migraine fee? This is the random amount added to a products price just because of the buzzword included in the products name. As someone who has suffered with migraines since I was 12 this mark up on products that include the word migraine really bothers me. Don't take advantage of my pain and use that as an excuse to price gouge me.  Excedrin and Excedrin Migraine both contain the following active ingredients: Acetaminophen 250 mg, Aspirin 250 mg and Caffeine 65 mg. Excedrin lists it's uses as various types of pain, while Excedrin Migraine lists it use as treating migraines. But they have the same active ingredients, so couldn't I use regular Excedrin for my migraines and still have it be effective? Why the deceptive marketing?  On Targ

We the People by Juan Williams

Image
  What would the Founding Fathers think about America today? Over 200 years ago the Founders broke away from the tyranny of the British Empire to build a nation based on the principles of freedom, equal rights, and opportunity for all men. But life in the United States today is vastly different from anything the original Founders could have imagined in the late 1700s. The notion of an African-American president of the United States, or a woman such as Condoleezza Rice or Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State, would have been unimaginable to the men who wrote the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, or who ratified the Constitution or the Bill of Rights. In a fascinating work of history told through a series of in depth profiles, prize-winning journalist, bestselling author, and Fox political analyst Juan Williams takes readers into the life and work of a new generation of American Founders, who honor the original Founders’ vision, even as they have quietly led revoluti

Crazy is my superpower by AJ Mendez Brooks

Image
  Recently retired WWE superstar AJ Mendez Brooks is a powerhouse—strong, quirky, and totally confident. But that wasn’t always the case. With humor and tremendous heart, she opens up for the first time about her harrowing struggle to understand her demons and the diagnosis that helped her gain control over her life.     I wasn't a WWE fan for long, but in the time that I was I both loved and hated AJ Lee's character. I adored her that we had a female character to watch who was short and spunky and seemed real, and then later I detested the way they had her character become the crazy girl, the butt of every joke. I expected this book would cover more of her time as a wrestler. I was pleasantly surprised to find out this wasn't the case. The book is an in depth look into her childhood and past. You get to see her use her mother's struggles to help her grow. You get a glimpse into how dark her life could have turned out. She does talk a bit about wrestling, but

That's so 90s Pop!

  Join Britney Spears in a maze searching for the necklace she once thought the old lady dropped into the ocean. Join Mandy Moore for a Candy-fuelled adventure in her green VW bug. Color in the scorching tattoos on Nick Lachey's rippling biceps. All this and so much more to be discovered within the pages of  That's so '90s Pop,  a fill-in activity book featuring a bevy of beloved musical pop stars from the late '90s/ early '00s. I absolutely love the adult coloring book craze. I find coloring to be so therapeutic and relaxing. So i love buying adult coloring books, and as someone who was a teenager in the very late 90s/early 2000s i knew i would love this one. The activities in it remind me of the activity books we used to get as kids, very simple but good for killing some time. There are lots of neat 90s trivia facts, and a lot of color pages. The color pages are where i was disappointed. Most of them look very little like who they are supposed to be. If not fo
