Mally Bibs

26-Mar-09

This giveaway is closed.

Today’s featured company:
Mally Bibs

A little more about them:
It all started in 2005. Nicole Garza, mother of 2 had a lucky spill when feeding her 10 month old daughter Malia, who was wearing one of her many stained cloth bibs. As the baby food spilled onto her little leather shoe, a simple wipe with a cloth was all it took, and the spill easily wiped away like magic. It was that moment that the idea of leather bibs was born.

Fast forward 3 years.  Mally Bibs, the original leather baby bib, is now an award winning children’s product and is available in over 500 retailers across North America, and in Europe and Japan! The latest additions to the line include leather applique© art cards and an online customizable option.

Our dream to design a better baby bib that thousands of people use and enjoy has become a reality. We believe baby bibs should be fun to wear for babies and toddlers, easy to clean for mom and dad, and always look great while cutting down on laundry and helping our environment.

Some examples of what they do:

BufferZone Pro

25-Mar-09

This giveaway is closed.

Today’s featured product:
BufferZone Pro

A little more about them:
BufferZone Pro uses the power of virtualization to “disconnect” your sensitive files from the internet—which means kids can click on any link, download any file, open any attachment they want—and any viruses or threats never touch your important files (and never mess anything up). It’s kind of like training wheels for the web—kids can explore the Internet while staying protected from all the Internet threats out there. And it saves the time, money and hassle of repairing a PC after an attack. Free 30-day trial at http://www.trustware.com.

What they’re giving away:
Two winners will each receive FREE year-long licenses for BufferZone Pro (each license is valued at $39.95).
