Play the New Addictive EyeCons Mobile Game and Win REAL Prizes!

October 7, 2016 by Jenni 542 Comments

This review was made possible by iConnect and EyeCons.  I was provided compensation to facilitate this post, but all opinions stated are 100% mine.

 

I often find myself sitting in the car pickup line at school, or waiting for the bus – trying to kill time. THIS is one of my “quiet” moments through out the day where I can enjoy a little me time. Sip some coffee, plan out our weekly menu and grocery list, and play games on my phone.

Have you heard of EyeCons yet?! I’m super addicted to this game! It’s a new “distract and relax” mobile game from the creators of the mega-hot board games TABOO and OUTBURST, Hersch Games! EyeCons is a match-two puzzle game and it offers REAL, offline rewards and prizes as you move from level to level! It’s like really getting paid to play!

 

YOU’RE INVITED for a Chance at $1000!

college safety tips for girls that you never think of

College Safety Tips for Girls (and Guys) That You Never Think Of

September 12, 2016 by Jenni 543 Comments

This post brought to you by Wearsafe. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Sweet Pennies From Heaven.

college safety tips for girls that you never think of

College Safety Tips for Girls and Guys You Never Think Of!

The kids are all grown up and leaving for college. They think they already know everything, right?! Yeah, they’re pretty smart – but they’re probably also still really naive. My niece, Hannah – my “mini me” – has just started her first year.

Bathroom selfies and all… (God love her heart!). I love her to pieces.

College kids HAVE to be equipped with some “smarts” when it comes to their safety since we’re not there to protect them. Here are 7 college safety tips for girls (and guys) that most of them won’t ever think of…until we tell them!

 

College Safety Tips for Girls (and guys)

 

1 . Have car/dorm keys handy BEFORE you get to the car or your dorm room. Don’t wait until you’re there before you start digging around for keys.

2 . Keep pepper spray handy. Most people think about having pepper spray on them, but most of the time they never even buy any.

3 . Use your car alarm! If a stranger is following you in the parking lot – press that alarm button on your key ring. More than likely, they’ll run the opposite direction!

4 . Don’t leave your drinks/food unattended. I know this one has been said over and over and over again – but for realz! Keep an eye on your drinks. You never know what weird creeper will drop something in it!

5 . Never go to the ATM machine alone, especially at night. Make your bestie or room mate tag along with you. If she/he complains, offer them $5 or something off the dollar menu at Taco Bell. Guarantee they’ll take you up on that!

6 . Keep your expensive stuff like laptops and electronic devices hidden away in your backpack or bag when heading out to the car or to the library.

 

 

Wearsafe Tag

7 . Use Wearsafe! It’s a teeny tiny Tag that keeps the kids and their family/friends one step ahead of an unsafe situation. In this event – it can be hard to get help when you’re fumbling around for your phone. I just set one up, and it was so easy to do!

 

Wearsafe Tag

wearsafe-tag-wearing

This super small Wearsafe Tag uses your phone to alert your friends and family – by sending them audio from the scene. It starts a chat room where they can coordinate, and/or call 911. Even when your phone is OUT OF SIGHT!!

 

app-free

The Wearsafe Tag works with both iPhones and Androids. The app is only $5 a month and comes with a FREE device/tag! You cannot beat that —  and there are NO commitments!!! You can Try it free now!!!

You won’t find another product out there that will keep your college kids safer than Wearsafe. It’s the only one to offer audio, GPS, and group chat! The Wearsafe Tag is SO small that a stranger don’t even know it’s there! All the while, in a situation, they have NO idea that 911 may already be on the way, thanks to Wearsafe!  

 

wearsafe-tag-5

APP/DEVICE DETAILS:

  • GPS information – recognizes if you are traveling or moving or stationary but that alone is not enough
  • Audio from the scene – push of button sends audio file of 60 seconds before ‘event’.  Being able to hear what is going on gives the context of what is happening
  • Group chat – all those in selected network are in group chat to create a virtual situation room.  Connects people who may not be connected on a daily basis.   They can connect as a team to address how to help person in distress and assess the situation.

 

wearsafe-app-3

This gives parents and the college kids both a sense of security. Even while you’re not close to one another, you’re still able to protect them at a moments notice! For just $5 a month. Mind blown. What other college safety tips do you have?!
