From now through September 18, anyone who makes a Slice purchase of $25 or more through Sunshine Rewards will be entered to win a pair of Slice Stainless Steel Scissors (worth $24.99).

Plus, purchases of $40 or more will get you free shipping.

Although you don't need to post to enter, I would love to hear what everyone is ordering and what your experience with Slice has been. I just put up a video review that shows a couple of the products:

Slice Grater and Veggie Peeler Review (http://www.sunshinerewards.com/videoblog/2011/09/06/slice-grater-and-veggie-peeler-review/)

Plus, all or our Super Members Plus this quarter received the amazing Safety Cutter which is perfect for coupons, opening DVDs, shrink wrap, etc.

Some of these products you truly have to see to believe. What are your thoughts?

I LOVE the slice cutter that I got as a SMP last quarter! I've been using it for opening packages and cutting coupons! My favorite thing about it is the blade which is SOOOOOO small and won't cut you if you press against it by accident. I feel much better about having this lying around the house and using it around the kids knowing they won't get cut if they pick it up in the drawer or something. I'll have to check out their other products!

I have to admit that I am not an expert. But I just pulled out the tweezers and used them. They are definitely a higher grade than the ones I usually use (all metal). They have a non-slip handle on them and the tip is kind of beveled. I wish I knew what good tweezers were. LOL

A good pair of tweezers will pluck with precision, without any skin attached! :rotfl:

Then I guess these are good because all I got were some little eyebrow hairs. LOL Not even any redness or anything.

Nail clippers will not be available until December. :( I think they started with the kitchen stuff and the beauty stuff is newer so it is just being produced.

I'll tell you which are my favorite in case anyone cares! The box cutter (I won't use anyone except this one), the veggie peelers I showed in the video, the scissors, and the coupon cutter. I haven't tried the salt and pepper grinder (although it is beautiful!), some of the other cutters, or the eye pencil sharpener.

Which one of these products would work for cutting material. Im making some flet scarves and cutting the fringe is would be so much easier if you didnt have to use sissors.

Unfortunately, I think that the scissors would still work best. :( Or the box cutter. I tried out the precision cutter and the safety cutter just now on some felt and they aren't really thick enough. They are more for scrapbooking, coupons, etc.

I wouldn't want to steer you toward a product that doesn't work well for you. :)

Tried to place an order and the click through coupon on SR says free shipping on orders over $40 until 9/18 but it did not give it to me...went all the way to the end before actually clicking to place order?

I just emailed the affiliate manager to see why. I know there isn't a code involved. It's supposed to be on all orders. The company is located in California so if it ends up taking half the day today to figure this out, I'll extend the increased cash back until tomorrow. :)

I need to make a video showing this box cutter. It's crazy. Every person I have shown it to has wanted one when they saw how safe it was. I know if I don't make a video, no one will believe it because I didn't myself. But to make a video I need to take a shower and do my hair. LOL!

Did you ever hear back from them about this yet? I noticed that the increased cash back has been changed back, I still would like to place an order but not if I have to pay $10 for shipping.

I agree. Definitely wait until we hear about the free shipping. The affiliate manager let me know last night that she had contacted the merchant and was waiting to hear back why it wasn't working. Not sure if it expired and they didn't realize it or what happened. But they are working on it for us. As soon as I get word, I'll let everyone know. I pushed the cash back increase again today but I'll keep pushing it until we get the free shipping back.

Ok, you convinced me...this would make a great xmas gift for my husband but it will have to wait until they get the nail clippers in stock (which has been removed from the site for some reason?) and then I can place another order.

Credit is pending in my account already and I just placed my order two days ago! :clap:

Nice hair too, BTW :rotfl:

They actually took them down because of us. LOL! I think she said that they aren't getting them in until December. So they took them down for now.

I didn't have time to fix my hair or makeup before the video this time because I made Kevin film it as he was walking out the door for work. LOL One take was all I got!!

We had a lot fewer people try Slice during this promotion than I thought we would...especially given how cool their products are. Does anyone have any feedback for me about why? Was it the promotion itself? The products? Just not a good time to make extra purchases?

That.

I think this would make a great gift in a gift exchange. I might purchase something later, once I know whether we'll be participating in any this year. The safety cutter looks really useful, I might get one for myself sometime later this year.

I just got my shipment today, I love everything I ordered with the exception of the letter opener. For some reason I didn't expect it to be as small as it was, it's the same size as the coupon thingy that was sent to the SMP members but that isn't my concern, it's that I can't get it to open envelopes? Maybe I'm doing it wrong, I'm following what is says to do on the package and it just doesn't cut open the envelope for me? Maybe there's a learning curve, I'll keep practicing? :rotfl: I do have to say though, that grater is the bomb! :D

Looked into it thought about it, then decided to wait for a few extra products to be introduced. I like the idea of winning the scissors but it was not enough to push me toplace the order. HTH I do like the coupon cutter and will buy from them just was not that motivated by that contest.

Wow, thanks...I was kind of hoping I was the winner! I'm sure I will love the scissors. My favorite item so far is the coupon clipper...everyone should own at least one, I own two now! :banana:

Thank you. I use my coupon clipper all the time and not just for coupons, for cutting anything out of a magazine or newspaper. I have the one from the SMP gift in my living room on my coffee table where I usually read the paper and then the second one I have in my kitchen for when I open up the mail and something needs clipping! Love these things. I am having a problem using the letter opener though, it doesn't want to open my letters for some reason, I might email them and see if it might be defective, it just doesn't cut through.
