Bodum Yo-Yo Set is the Perfect Gift ~ #2013ChristmasGiftGuide #Review #Giveaway

You all know I am a tea-a-holic drinker.  I have at least one mug a day.  I does not matter if my tea is in either loose or bagged.  However I do have a few favourites that are sold loose.  When I do have loose tea I don't like to bag them because they do cost extra.  They are great for on the go in a traveling mug.  I preferred to use a strainer to hold my tea leaves.  For awhile I did use the ball and the chain for a few years but one day I lost it.  No idea where it went.  Then I decided to purchase a mug with a cup strainer for easier cleaning and not getting lost.




I think this yo-yo set (cute name) is fantastic!  I love the tray could be double up as a lid and a trivent to prevent the strainer from dripping all over table when I take it out of the mug.  It is dishwasher safe and microwave safe.  I dont have a dishwasher so it will be mostly washed by hands.  I love when items are microwave safe.  I hate to find out it was not and gets me annoyed that I have to find another cup that is.  It holds 10oz so it holds enough for my morning tea but sometimes it might not be big enough when I am so thirsty...so I will fill it up again.  See problem solved.  The strainer works with any cup and works with any loose tea leaves.  I have seen other strainers and I think they were useless since the holes are large enough for certain tea leaves to pass through.  I hate to swallow tea with the leaves.  It is gross.  This strainer is perfect, something I was looking for to keep at home or the office.  This is a great Christmas gift for tea-a-holic or just starting out drinking tea.  I think this is a perfect gift for everyone.  Grab one of these mugs and add a bag of tea leaves = the perfect gift for this holiday season.  It is so affordable at MSRP $10 and it is available at The Bay.

GIVEAWAY!

Bodum would like to offer one of my readers their own yo-yo mug set.

This giveaway will run from December 4th, 2013 to January 1st, 2014 (midnight EST).  Winner, You have 72 hours to reply.  You must be 18+ Canadians Only.  Good Luck!
