DownEast Launches Home Products Online and a Giveaway!

Spring decorations arrived at DownEast Home stores not too long ago and I have already found a few pieces that I love. I went shopping in anticipation of this giveaway and came home with a national brand Easter egg wreath and matching topiary for under $30. I am heading back this week for a couple of other decorations that I regretted not getting when I was there. They had cute bunnies that would look perfect on my fireplace and I loved some of their floral stems and vases. I hope none of you beat me to them!


By now, most of you know that I love shopping at DownEast, and who wouldn't love getting brand name products way below national prices? However, until recently, DownEast Home products were only available to those of us in the Utah-Idaho area. Notice, I said "until recently"? That's right, now everyone can enjoy select accessories from DownEast Home, online!

I really like these boxwood balls and these black wire bowls. I just need to figure out how to incorporate them into my home.



To celebrate the launch of the DownEast Home products online, DownEast is offering one reader a $25 gift card. This gift card can be used in store or online. DownEast has been sending out a number of discount codes through email lately, so it might be a good idea to sign up if you haven't already. Winner or not, you'll still want to know about their sales.

Kidtoons The Little Engine that Could Giveaway!

This month Kidtoons Theaters are featuring the movie The Little Engine that Could. This is a classic story that every little one should see. Kidtoons is giving one reader a hardcover copy of the book and a movie poster so that you can continue enjoying this classic after seeing it at the theater.

Here are the details on the movie:

The timeless story comes to life in this all-new, feature-length film filled with fun and adventure! When Little Engine (Alyson Stoner, Cheaper by the Dozen) must leave Dreamland to deliver toys into the real world, she sets her fears aside and learns that with a little determination and courage, anything is possible. Featuring an all-star cast, including Whoopi Goldberg (The View), Jamie Lee Curtis (Freaky Friday), Corbin Bleu (High School Musical) and Brenda Song (The Suite Life of Zack and Cody), this "fun family film" (Francine Brokaw, Los Angeles Family Magazine) is one you'll enjoy again and again.

Visit Kidtoons for more info or to find the theater near you. You can also find information there on the birthday club, monthy coloring contests, next months movie (Strawberry Shortcake) and more.
