Entering Is Plagiarism? Tell Me More.

Funny, I thought that blogging was supposed to be fun. To reach out to others, and help one another move members around to other blogs, reading, and writing reviews, and so on. Right?
Well there is at least one blogger in particular, I'm being lady like and won't mention any names. That does not like for her "reviews" to be copy and pasted. That apparently she considers it plagiarism.

Now if I'm over stepping my bounds on somethings, PLEASE do let me know. I enter, and I do majority of the ways to enter. And I do it for more than one reason. I do it of course for the extra entries. I ALSO add MANY copy/pasted info from giveaways for quick entry AND to help push others to those sites. In no way, shape or form does it mean that I am attempting to take credit for said copy/pasted entries. They are always linked back to the ORIGINAL AUTHOR! Unless I made a typo or an error of some kind.

Now I really do consider myself an open minded person. I really do accept constructive criticism, and rather openly.
Is it fair or a sort of blogging discrimination to eliminate/exclude entries to those of us that do a quick copy and paste?

Is this an unspoken rule of blogging and entering blog giveaways?

In my very frank opinion (I give my opinion much too often sometimes.) this is the VERY reason that blog sweeps and giveaways are looked down upon from the sweeping community.

So, please, do comment. I really want to know, is this a "nono" for entering other peoples giveaways?

A Mom's Balancing Act & Little Luvee 9/16

Little Luvee Review and Giveaway

Little Luvee
When we had our daughter Kaelyn, we were pretty clueless as to what baby supplies we would need and how many of each to register for. One item I didn't realize at the time that you could never have enough of, are burp cloths!! With Kaelyn I had just enough to get by for a day...which meant doing laundry even more than I normally would have with a newborn. With this baby, I'd like to be prepared and have even more on hand! One thing I wanted in a burp cloth was that they were soft, high quality, and of course...it's always nice when the baby products you use are cute too...right?!?

Flying Giggles And Lollipops & ZhuZhu Pets 9/10

Zhu Zhu Pets- Review and Giveaway

When my brother and I were kids, we would ride our bikes to the pet store and browse around, dreaming of all the cool pets we wanted. One day, I decided I was getting a hamster. I am not sure why I did not run my brilliant idea by my parents, but I guess I figured if it was my hard earned money, I can do what I please with it. My brother and I purchased everything I needed to house and care for my new best friend, my hamster. I have no idea what made me think my parents would let me have one.

TwoOfAKindWorkingOnAFullHouse & Dittany Baby 9/14

Dittany Baby Nursing Cover And SkidPants Review And Giveaway

Dittany Baby
I took the nursing cover with us to the hospital and have used it almost everyday since. I wish that I would have had one when Evan was a baby. I ended up only breastfeeding him for 4 months because my modesty didn't allow for me to feed him when anyone else was around. A blanket is too hard to keep up where you need it and these nursing covers have the adjustable neck strap so that you can make it fit just right. Here I am feeding Isabella at my mom's house.

The Mom Buzz & Toothpaste Heads 9/8



Two New Toothpaste Heads Make Brushing Teeth Fun! (Review and Give-Away)

I admit, I like novelty items. Spread Heads Mustard Marvin and Ketchup Charlie are a blast at family barbecues as the condiments flow freely from their mouth or nose, depending on your topping choice. Everyone "ewwws", but with a smile on their face. Both the grown-ups and kids love it. You can read my full review on Marvin and Charlie here: Put the Eww in Kewl!

So when I heard that Spread Heads introduced a line of toothpaste heads, I was all for it. The idea is that not all kids like brushing their teeth. So if you make it more fun, they are more likely to brush, resulting in a healthier smile! As it is, I already buy fun tooth brushes and special toothpaste to entice my kids to unclench their teeth, so this is just another tool to help make the experience fun! And my littlest one is definitely enamored with Oscar the Toothpaste Cat.

Both Oscar the Cat and Pete the Dog work with most toothpastes. You simply push the faces down on the toothpaste opening and you are ready to let the toothpaste flow. Both Pete and Oscar have a paw that fits into their mouths, so you can close the cap when you are done.
