Kids Health Notes give-away: Banjees wrist wallets

Sometimes I really do NOT want to carry my messenger tote with me! If I’m just going for a quick trip to the store, or a stroll around the block with my kids, maybe take a walk after dinner… I so wish I could leave my bag behind. There are just too many unessential, clutter-magnets in my purse! And I think a lot of women (and maybe some men who carry backpacks all the time) will say “oh, yeah!” with me. Right?
So when Sprigs offered to sponsor this wrist wallet for give-away, it was like a problem solved. The Banjees Wrist Wallet lets you carry the essentials – cash, keys, ID, cellphone – in that comfortable pouch and free up your hands. And the zippered wallets have such cool designs they are NOT like black arm bands (unless you like it that way).
So for the give-away: 12 pairs of Banjees Wrist Wallet (one for each hand, of course!) to 12 winners!
How to join:
- What is/are the most unessential items (or weird/unexpected items) you have stashed in your bag, purse or wallet. Spill them out in the comments section.
- Additional entry will be given to those who link this contest post on their site!
- Eligibility – one entry per person per email daily (so you get more entries if you come back tomorrow, but rules #1 (different item/bag) and #2 above apply for each entry.
- It’s open to lower 48 U.S. states only (excl. Hawaii and Alaska). If you have a blog, do post your URL as well, as I love to visit my readers’ sites and catch a conversation.
The contest ends 12:00 midnight EST May 10, 2008 in time for Mother’s day. Twelve winners will be randomly chosen. I will post the winners before 12mn of May 11.
I have 4 other contests for Mother’s Day. Check them out, and join, HERE.

I never know what I will find in my purse – usually partially wrapped gum or hard candy!
I still have the keys to my first apartment. I haven’t lived there in thirty years
I love this I hate carrying my whole world in a purse and forgetting it some where. What a great idea. I would love to win this product.
Dried-up leaves. Don’t ask.
vinyl gloves

If you ask my husband, he’ll tell you almost everything that I carry in my purse is unessential.

Currently, I have 45 and 30 suncreen and I live in the Chicago area and it’s only in the 50’s still.

candles
WHISTLE
I carry a dog leash and treats.
My daughter’s tooth.
a bus pass from when I was in Australia in 2003.
This falls in the unexpected items category:
A month or so ago I was looking for a misplaced item and ran across a beaded clutch my mother-in-law had given me some time ago (probably more than a year earlier). I’d never really used it — not my style — but for some reason I picked it up and unzipped it. Imagine my surprise to find a $50 bill inside. Talk about UNEXPECTED!!!
One unmatched girl’s shoe!
Well, how about those stray old sticky candies that have fallen into the dark corner and somehow I only find them when my hand is looking for something else. Those candies all migrate to a dark corner and get sticky together. I can’t forget stray pretzels, and goldfish too. Yes, I’m a mom : )
plenty of hairs,stains and fibers for grissom to examine.
Pithy clippings from magazines, destined to become refrigerator magnets (”my mind works like lightning — one bright flash, and then it’s gone” or maybe “Better a messy room than a life unlived”)…
I secure a sewing needle in my date book cover. SPF 15 lotion.
NOTHING REALLY INTERESTING EXCEPT MAYBE MY SPARE KEY.
a tin of almonds
Interesting item in my bag is a tiger eye rock.
I can only say that after My accident My doctor threw My purse up on the scale and it came to 43 pounds a book and two magazines and all My pills where in there and boy did I get a talking to since I had just gone under a FLAT BED SEMI….so now all I carry is My drivers license and credit card and a very small wallet My Friends can not believe I do not carry a lip stick….The new stuff stays on for a long time but I don’t really need it…It’s amazing what can stay in a small box in Your van keep everything locked down in Your van also remember You get hit in a van or car things FLY…..
I used to occasionally take my dog to Pet Smart. I always took one of the plastic bags for potty break to clean up after her before we went inside. I found one of the plastic bags (unused) stuffed in the side pocket of my purse. We had to have her put to sleep last fall, so I think it is time to clean out my purse.
Thanks for the chance to win!
flower and vegetable seeds
I carry packets of Equal in my bag just in case I’m somewhere that doesn’t have sugar substitute. That plus I swipe those little wipe packets every time we go to a restaurant that has them. I carry them in my purse in case I need a quick wipe for the kids.
I carry around coupons for restaurants I’ll probably never go to.
