Blue Power Detergent Bar


A few months ago, my sister and I found "Liquid Blue" at Meijer store. I was shocked until I noticed a German woman on the bottle! At any rate, I used it on my white coat (and you know how dirty that can get!) and it worked like a charm. My coat was white again :)

While in Philly, I found a Caribbean BluePower bar. I was totally excited to try it! I used it on some clothing yesterday and...wow!! It does work Grandma!!! I reviewed their business online and found that their customer base is largely Caribbean people who remember their parents using it!

Im a believer...

New Hat















I received a new hat from a friend this week. As I get older (and have a real job!) replicas have become less of a big deal, but I like the color scheme and you know how much I love stripes!! This hat appears to be a mix between the men's 2010 baseball hat and the men's 2010 military cap with leather trimmings. The makers of these replica hats are becoming very creative!!

Here are my thoughts:
1. Tag is not made out of the material of the hat
2. Tag does not state "Made in Italy" - actually states "Made in China"
3. No serial number on the tag
4. Craftsmanship is appropriate for the likely price of the hat!!
5. The style is close, but not quite the same for either version above

I went on EBay to see how prices ranged for these hats. I found several, mostly between 30-40$. I saw several listed as "100% authentic" which is totally NOT true!!

I'm going to wear this once or twice then sell mine on EBay too. However, I'm going to try to list mine under Ladies hats. If you want me to pass this item onto you, check out the post listed under "Replica Monogram Military Style Hat"

Leave a post if you have more clues to how to identify replica hats!
