Shop Products from Sustainability Leaders on Walmart.com

April 9, 2015 by Tara Kuczykowski 1 Comment

As a mom of a larger-than-average family, I’m very conscious of my family’s ecological footprint. With a quick glance at the curb each trash day, it’s pretty evident that we produce substantially more waste than our neighbors. So we’re always looking for simple ways to reduce, reuse and recycle.

But practicing sustainability at home is only one small step in a larger global issue, so I believe it’s vitally important that we, as consumers, start voting with our wallets by supporting manufacturers and retailers that practice sustainability.

As the largest retailer in the world, Walmart has set some pretty lofty goals with regards to sustainability:

  • Energy — Be supplied 100% by renewable energy
  • Waste — Create zero waste
  • Products — Sell products that sustain people and the environment

You can read more about the steps they’re taking to achieve these goals here, but the one that really stood out to me is the Acres for America initiative, a 10-year, $35 million commitment to purchase and preserve 1 acre of wildlife habitat in the U.S. for every acre of land Walmart develops. I’m grateful that Walmart has such a vision for preserving land for my grandchildren and beyond.

In addition to maintaining a set of corporate sustainability goals, Walmart is also looking toward promoting brands that have been deemed sustainability leaders. Walmart believes that consumers shouldn’t have to choose between affordability and sustainability when shopping in a Walmart store or online. To make it easy to shop for products produced by companies deemed as sustainability leaders within an industry via Walmart’s Sustainability Index, they’ve developed a Sustainability Badge which makes it easy to identify these brands in a crowd.

Taking it one step further even, Walmart has created the Sustainability Leaders shop on Walmart.com which simplifies shopping for products produced by Sustainability Leaders within a category. Within the shop, you’ll find more than 10,000 products made by companies identified as leaders in a category. Here’s a video that gives a quick overview on how to navigate the shop:

Peeps Taste Test Easter Basket | Mystery Peeps Walmart Exclusive

March 27, 2015 by Tara Kuczykowski 5 Comments

It’s no secret that we keep things low key around here when it comes to Easter baskets… Longtime readers may recall that I took quite a bit of flak a few years ago when I shared the budget-friendly Easter basket that I built for my kids to share!

Yes, it still blows my mind that there were some readers who were appalled that I “forced” my five kids to SHARE a single Easter basket, but I can assure you that they were NOT scarred for life when they all came tumbling downstairs on Easter morning. In fact, as soon as they found all of the plastic eggs hidden throughout the house, they were beside themselves to get their shoes on and head outside to play with the bubbles, bouncy balls and sidewalk chalk. Not one. single. complaint…

Oreo Dirt Cups

Carrot Patch Oreo Dirt Cups

It’s not just Easter, though — we lean heavily toward gifts that spark creativity and imagination and family activities for all holidays that we celebrate. Example, just last week we made these cute “carrot” strawberries and turned them into Carrot Patch Oreo Dirt Cups. I’m pretty sure that the time we spent together creating and making messes, while talking and laughing, will stick with them for years to come.

Before we made them, my kids and I stopped by Walmart after soccer practice to pick up a few ingredients we needed. We ended up in the Easter section to pick up the Wilton Orange Candy Melts, so we took a look around. They really have some very cool items stocked right now!

Some of my favorite finds:

While I was drawn to the wide selection of willow, bamboo and woodchip baskets (starting at $7.98), my younger kids headed straight for the licensed character Easter baskets pictured above. I can’t say that I’m surprised, since they feature some of their favorite characters, like Frozen, Transformers, and Disney Princess.

We contemplated picking up one of the Spraytastic! egg decorating kits, but we had so much fun making these Rubber Cement Dyed Easter Eggs, that we’ll probably use that technique again.

I may sneak back to get a box of those cupcake candy-filled “eggs” for my girls, and I’ll admit to tossing a package of the Sour Patch Bunnies in my basket. What can I say? I’m not really big on candy, but Sour Patch Kids are totally my weakness…

Peeps Taste Test Easter Basket

I also ended up tossing several packages of Peeps into my cart after my kids came up with this idea for a Peeps Taste Test Easter basket. Even though I *really* try to limit the amount of candy that we bring into our home (ahem, perhaps I should have left the Sour Patch Bunnies on the shelf), after seeing the large assortment of flavors, they started chatting about how much fun it would be to do a blind taste test and guess the flavors — especially once they saw the Mystery Peeps (a Walmart exclusive)! Their enthusiasm was contagious, so I caved.

Since a package of Peeps is only a dollar, this is a really budget friendly idea. We had a sleep mask at home that we used as a blindfold, but you could also tuck an inexpensive color-coordinating bandana into the basket.

They set everything for the taste test up themselves and asked me to videotape it, so I got to witness the fun firsthand. I’ll warn you it’s a little long, but I thought I’d share the results with you:

I’m sure you’re probably wondering just what flavor are the Mystery Peeps? And the truth is, we’re not sure! Everyone in the family tried them, and we all agreed they’re pretty fruity — but the actual flavor varied from fruit punch to strawberry to cherry. Hopefully we won’t have to wonder for long — I have it on authority that Peeps will be revealing the flavor on national TV sometime before Easter. Let me know if you see the announcement!

Whether you want to build this Peeps basket or have your own ideas, Walmart has all of the hottest Easter offerings at everyday low prices!

Women Owned at Walmart | Women’s Economic Empowerment Initiative

March 11, 2015 by Tara Kuczykowski Leave a Comment


March is Women’s History month, so now is the perfect time to share with you an initiative that Walmart has been working on for the last three years. Aimed at improving the lives of women around the world, one piece of the global Women’s Economic Empowerment initiative is to source $20B from women owned companies by FY17!

I don’t know about you, but this makes me one happy mama… I’ve talked before about how I intentionally chose somewhat gender neutral names for my two girls — a choice that was not without some criticism when they were younger, although it seems to be less of an issue these days. I want my girls to grow up to be strong and confident women, without any arbitrary limitations based on their gender, and I’m grateful that Walmart has taken up this cause to assist in providing them with boundless opportunities when they’re older.

In honor of Women’s History month, Walmart is featuring 6 different items in stores that are manufactured by women-owned companies:

  • Milo’s Sweet Tea (Family business, all natural ingredients)
  • Budget Saver Popsicles
  • CLR Remover (chemicals safe for the environment)
  • Smart & Sexy Bra (CEO is mother of 7)
  • Carter’s Infant Shoes
  • Hefty Trashcan

In addition to these six items, you can also find more than 10,000 additional items online and in stores that are women owned. Just look for the Women Owned badge to identify them.

I’m currently crushing on the gorgeous jewelry line from Miss Zoe by Calinana. Just take a look at some of my favorite pieces above — I already ordered the teardrop necklace and bracelet! Not only is this stunning line owned and designed by Ainat Altarac, but each piece is 100% handcrafted in the USA.

Fun Facts About Women-Owned Businesses

  • A women-owned company is a company that is at least 51% owned by women and also ran by a woman!
  • Women-owned businesses contribute over $1.3 trillion dollars to the US economy.
  • Women are responsible for over 80 percent of the consumer decisions globally.
  • Creating awareness of these products can result in sales growth, increased consumer knowledge and loyalty.
  • The majority of Walmart’s 250 billion customers globally are women.

I hope that next time you’re shopping at Walmart (or on Walmart.com), you’ll look for these women-owned items to support this initiative!

The Kids’ Event at Walmart | Rollbacks on Kids’ Decor!

March 2, 2015 by Tara Kuczykowski Leave a Comment

As with so many preteen boys, my boys are avid gamers, disappearing to their room for hours on end to play online matches with each other and their friends on their Xbox Ones. Things can get a little rowdy and loud up in there, especially since they got new gaming headphones for Christmas and don’t realize just how vocal they’re being, so I often just shut their door to block out the noise and let them be.

They also asked for gaming chairs for Christmas, but that was one gift they didn’t find under the tree on Christmas morning — mainly because I just couldn’t find a good option that fit their bedroom…

The placement makes taking a photo extremely awkward, but basically they have an awesome set of triple bunkbeds that fit into the corner of the room, with a double bunk on one side and a single loft on the other, both meeting up in the corner. It’s the perfect option that allows them to have friends sleep over. Unfortunately, it also eats up a lot of space in their room and makes for some unique decorating challenges.

You might recognize the teal chevron chair above from previous posts. It originally lived in our great room and was later moved to my girls’ room. After the girls received a lounging couch as their Christmas gift, one of my boys asked if he could use it in his room. As you can see, it’s definitely seen better days, but it’s served its purpose for now. My other boy has been using the gray beanbag (that’s also seen much better days) under the loft area where his TV is set up.

When I saw that Walmart is having a Kids’ Rollback Event online, I figured that I’d take a look to see if I could find them some chairs that looked a little more masculine and would fit their cramped quarters.

I was excited to find this awesome chair that featured a drink holder, pocket and easy-carry handle — but then I was pretty bummed to find out that the color options I was hoping for were out of stock. If you’re looking for emerald, red or zebra print, though, definitely check that one out!

However, I did find another chair made by the same manufacturer that looks to be almost the exact same thing, minus the drink holder and pocket. These features weren’t deal breakers for me, so I ordered two of the Big Joe Club 1 Chairs in the Patriot Blue Color. The squishy beanbag-like construction should make it easy to cram into their tight quarters, and the color should blend in well with their bunk beds.

I gave my boys a heads up that a couple of chairs were on their way, and they are SO excited for them to arrive! They should be here Thursday, so I’ll come back to add a little update on their thoughts after actually trying them to this post then.

In the meantime, if you’re looking to updated your kids’ bedrooms, play areas or bathrooms on a budget, definitely check out the Walmart Kids’ Rollback Event. There are some really cute items available at a discount right now!
