FREE LG G Pad!

Today, I bring to your attention a major geek chic announcement.  Many of you may or may not know that my husband is an account manager for Verizon Cellular Sales.  He came home to tell me about a pretty great deal on the LG G Pad 8.3.  How great??  Can you say, “FREE”?!  If you haven’t heard of the LG G Pad, then keep reading.

The paper clip in this photo is GIANT, btw. Haha! Seriously, the tablet is 8 x 3 inches. 🙂

I’d asked for a tablet because it’s sometimes cumbersome to travel with my laptop – especially on short trips.  My colleagues also have tablets that they take with them from meeting to meeting at work, so that’s also inspired me to try and get one for myself.  So, I’m going to give this one a try and so far I love it!  What’s even better is that there is quite the incentive for you to buy one too!

My hubby hubs can get you this tablet, free of cost, after rebate!  All you pay for is the service each month.

As you can see, it’s small enough to carry with you everywhere you go and yet large enough to work off of.  It’s the perfect size for reading books with the Kindle app, watching movies, playing games, and other activities to entertain the little ones.  It fits perfectly in your purse, and it doesn’t even have to be a tote bag.  As you can see below, it fits in my Tory Burch satchel.

It has a front and rear facing camera, a quad core processor, and from the picture above you can see the colors on the screen are amazing.  With Father’s Day just around the corner, one of these would make the perfect gift.  You can get text messages on this tablet while making sure he (or you!) stays up to date with the coolest technology, haha.

So, how do you get yours FREE?!  Contact my hubby, Mike!  Out of pocket cost is $140+tax but then you get a $140 rebate back in about 10-12 business days.  No other Verizon store or online company is offering these free at the moment, so this is a very unique offer I get to share with my readers.  Yay for us!  Online and most Verizon stores are offering this tablet for $229 with a $100 rebate.  The monthly cost for most Verizon plans is just $10 a month to have internet access on it everywhere you go.  You can also connect to WiFi when available to save your data.

For more information, contact Mike at 760-447-7788 or mike.frymark@cellularsales.com.  LG G Pads can be shipped anywhere in the US, so you do not have to be local to purchase from him.  They all come with a 14 day worry-free guarantee to make sure you are completely happy with your purchase.  If you don’t have Verizon you can still get the tablet for FREE and the Verizon plan would be $30 a month for 2GB of data.  My husband can also help switch you, your family, and even your business to Verizon and give you the best deal possible on equipment.  Verizon is also now offering a $100 bill credit per line you bring from another carrier that gets a smart phone.  So get on it!  This is not a scam, btw.  I fully endorse this product, and my hubby. 🙂

Until next time!  Stay ‘Chic’!

Get yo’ fitness on – Day 3, Week 1

Last workout of week 1!  Yay!!  I hope you are as excited as I am to get into shape this summer.  I mentioned previously that I’ve been working out a bit so far, which is why for the first time this year, I felt confident enough to wear shorts outside the house!

It felt pretty amazing!  We had a great time at the pool with the boys.  I hope to feel confident enough to don a bikini sometime soon.  For now, coverup’s and one-piece suits are my bff’s – you know…best friends forever!

So, on to the reason you’re really reading today’s blog post – the Day 3, Week 1 workout!

That’s all for now folks!  Hope you’re enjoying these workouts! Wait, did you want to talk about how hard those burpee’s are??  Um, let’s not.  Let’s just do them and pretend they never happened, haha.  Seriously though, they’re kinda killer.

Ernieways! Stay tuned for Week 2 coming on the blog next week.  If you missed it, be sure to go back and check out Days 1 and 2 of Week 1 on the blog here and here.  Finally, be sure to let Cody know if you have any questions about any of these exercises or are interested in any personalized training or nutrition program!  He’d be more than happy to meet and set something up for you.  Hope you are all enjoying the weekend.

Until next time! Stay ‘Chic’!
