GET- G-OIL® makers of “green” products

Back in late May 2011, Green Earth Technologies(GET), manufacturer of “green” products, wanted to let you know about their new environmentally friendly motor oil called, G-OIL®.  They (GET) ,were offering a mail in rebate for a free 5 quart bottle of 5W-30 so you could make the switch yourself, in honor of Earth Month, which was in June ! This,was the giveaway post.  I also received a 5 qt bottle of G-OIL®, for helping to get the word out about the product.

GET- G-OIL® is “green” oil

G-OIL®, is made of a blend of nature’s American grown base oils, and it’s the first U.S. produced ultimate biodegradable bio-based motor oil, to be approved by the American Petroleum Institute (API).

GET- G-OIL® offers performance without petroleum

At the time I did the post, I had recently had an oil change.  So, about three weeks ago, I made the switch to G-OIL®.  At first, I called my local mechanic that services my vehicle, to see what he would charge.  Much to my surprise, even though I was furnishing the oil, there was NO discount!  They wouldn’t be making any money.  The same story was true, for the mechanic shop that is only a mile from my house.  They wanted $32-$36, for an oil change , with my G-OIL®.

So, I called my local WalMart.  Much to my surprise, they didn’t have G-OIL® or sell it, but the tech noticed the bottle said WalMart, on it.  He thought it was pretty cool!  They took $9.75 off , on a $30 oil change.  So, my G-OIL® change, was $22.25 out the door.

Just last week, I called my Bremerton, WA. Walmart.  They carry the product .  It is $26, for a 5 quart bottle.  That’s enough for your oil change. I’m relieved and happy to know, that I will be able to get the product, without any problems.  I can say without hesitation, that I am glad I made the switch to G-Oil.  There have been, no problems, even though it is a lighter weight oil, than what is recommended for my vehicle.  There is NO engine noise, and overall, it runs much cleaner.  Performance is good, and gas mileage seems to be a little better.  I have reformed, and will stay with G-OIL®!

If dependency on foreign oil has you looking for sustainable, but high performance vehicle solutions, look no further than G-OIL®!

I’d love to hear your story. Let me know, if you  ‘go green’ this summer, with G-OIL®!

Quench means bottled water doesn’t make sense

In today’s world, bottled water no longer makes sense.  It’s more expensive, harmful to the environment, and your health, and is no healthier or ‘purer’ than filtered tap water. Yet, many offices, schools, and administrations are still using bottled water coolers.  Why? Because, they are unaware of the alternatives.  Using Point-Of-Use, or POU, installation, bottleless water coolers can be installed directly into existing water lines without significant disruption, for a significantly lower cost.

It’s a Quench guarantee, that any of their wide variety of coolers can be installed, as long as, there is a water line within a few hundred feet. Installation is as simple as a certified, insured, and highly-trained service professional.  They will install the bottleless, or POU, water cooler in an efficient and timely manner, hiding all water lines, so there are no eye sores. Usually, installation is even completed in under an hour.

Quench is saving water and trees

Since Quench’s founding, the elimination of bottled water coolers, has been the equivalent of planting over 4 million trees, saving over 200,000,000 gallons of water, and 10,200,000 kWh of electricity. That’s  just from the quantity of greenhouse gases kept out of the atmosphere. Quench coolers, cut energy use by 65%, compared to regular bottled water coolers, and reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 98%, by eliminating the need to manufacture, bottle, store and distribute bottled water. At Quench, they are dedicated to making green and sustainable office solutions easy.  Consider switching your office to a bottleless water cooler today.
