Welcome to the grand opening week of Your Mama Reviews! From today until February 27th, The Mama team will be presenting giveaways and discounts to our readers.
and enjoy the ride! This review blog will always focus on affordable items that we use in our everyday lives. (We love splurging and window-shopping too, so please visit the shiny places in our links!)
When we’re not sure what to purchase, we always turn to other moms. If you know of a great product, website, or service you think we’d like, just drop us a line. Our reviews are 100% genuine. We’ll tell you if we think something sucks, and we’ll always tell you if the products we review were supplied by the manufacturer.
We prefer natural and organic products, but we recognize that everyday parents are often driven by budget constraints. Expect to find a mix of boutique products, websites, everyday drugstore items, and ordinary gear you can pick up at your local retailer.
Let’s get to the fun part! For day one of our grand opening, we’re offering a double giveaway.
FREE STUFF ALERT – this contest is now closed
Win a Discovery Paper Recycling Studio for ages eight and up. (Girls may prefer this toy more than boys.) (That is to say, they may prefer it more than boys will prefer it. They’ll probably still like boys more than they like crafts.) $25 value.
AND
Win a $10 Starbucks gift card.

I think that home birth is a great topic to be addressed these days on sites like yours, I had a home birth and it was amazing and perfect. It’s not for everyone but it is statistically safer than the hospital and I would be happy to help you with any information!
Styleforfree.com is a great website that you guys should check out! Thanks for the giveaway :)
Check out StampinUp.com!!! They have tons of wonderful stamping products you can create cards and crafts with! I recently won a contest and got a goodie bag full of their awesome products!! Thank you for the contest!
I would love for you to review an affordable surround sound system. It seems that I can hear every background noise on the television, yet not what the people are saying. I am tired of adjusting the volume with no results.

mncmoon’s shop is amazing. I ordered a necklace with 3 sterling name tags plus pearls. It was gorgeous. Hand stamped and all. She works with you on every aspect and it is made exactly to your liking.

If I won this would go to a friend of mine who loves coffee and never buys anything for herself and her daughter who is the tree-hugger in the making!

I think you should check out paperbackswap!!
I would recommend feedthepig.org. It offers ways for everyone in your family to do little things that save money! I found it really helpful!
I’d like to win this kit for my little brother. My parents used to buy him kits like this for his birthday, but they can’t afford to anymore, so he winds up with only video games. I think he should have a variety of things to do, and so I’d really like to win this one for him. I’d give the gift card to my mom, because she has a really hard time being a single parent of 3 kids, one being only 2. This giveaway would really help my family! p.s. I’m 13 years old.
