Comment Policy

This blog abides by word of mouth marketing standards. I believe in honesty of relationship, opinion and identity. This is not the place for harsh criticisms or negativity. We are in this together. We’re on the same team! And while I welcome ideas from readers of all walks of life, I simply ask that those ideas be expressed with respect for one another and a little (or, if the situation warrants, BIG) drop of grace.
This blog is a source of income and may occasionally incorporate endorsements or testimonials; I felt it was important to disclose the following to you, my readers:

Disclosure Policy

This blog accepts forms of cash advertising, sponsorship, paid insertions or other forms of compensation to form a source of income for me and therefore may be used to promote products, services, or other businesses.
I will only choose to promote products/services/businesses that I have, in fact, used and that I feel will be beneficial to my readers.
Products provided to me by my advertising partners for review are given to me free of charge with no cost to myself. This does not ensure a positive review of the product in any way.
You can trust me. I will always give my honest opinion about a product or service whether or not I am partnering with the service provider and/or receiving payment to do so, and not allow that opinion to be influenced by the financial compensation I receive. The views and opinions expressed on this blog are purely the bloggers’ own. Any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer, provider or party in question.
My number one priority is accuracy and fairness to my readers, and I would never compromise the truth just to make a buck. Ever!
Mentions of associated products/services/businesses within the content of my blog may or may not be noted as an affiliate in every reference.
I hold myself to the highest standards of integrity and strive to deliver interesting, helpful, and encouraging content while generating a small profit to compensate me for my time, research, and ideas. I love and appreciate my readers and make it my goal to be up front and honest with every post I write.
I promise you that I am not paid to run this blog by any corporation, religious or political organization, friend, or family member. The content choices are 100% my own.
I promise that I do my very best to only send you REAL offers and no scams with hoops to jump through or clanging bells and whistles.
