  If you're kids are getting a little big for the traditional child carrier's on the market, but you still love asking long hikes out in the woods, along the beach or sightseeing while on vacation, then My Freeloader Child Carrier may be just the solution you're looking for. Coming from someone that's always taken extremely long walks when something is on my mind, and raising two Boys on my own since they were very young, the My Freeloader Child Carrier could have come in handy multiple times.

We had our routine down pact; the kids would walk on their own until the first one started getting tired. It was more of a game so neither wanted to give in first, and as a result sometimes we'd end up several  miles away somewhere up in the Mountains usually resulting in a tie. This is where the piggy back rides start on our way back from whatever trail we were on at the time. It was a nice break for them as we made our way back to the vehicle, but not so much for Dear Ole Dad that never got a break most of the way. Who would've thought combining a traditional child carrier with a bicycle type seat would be the answer as the perfect way to give kids a piggy back ride?Read More Here-->>>

Breathometer Breathalyzer App

Breathalyzer App - Season 5 - Episode 505 - Week 2
 

Smartphone Breathalyzer App
Seen on Shark Tank Season 5

 It's really amazing how far the App Business has come in just that last few years. But making a functional working Breathalyzer App still seems like science fiction, right? I mean how can you make an App that reads your Blood Alcohol Content with stunning accuracy?

To take this smart phone app a step further, the Breathometer not only is a reliable breathalyzer, it's also a "smart" breathalyzer that can track your progress and let you know when it's safe to drive. With a retail price of only $49, this small little Breathometer can potentially save you thousands of dollars from getting a DUI, or a great deal more if you were also involved in an accident.

 Earlier this year on March 13, 2013, Charles Michael Yim decided to raise the needed capital for developing the Breathometer Breathalyzer App using Indiegogo as the preferred Crowd Funding Platform. Yim set a reasonable goal at $25k which was easily achieved way a head f schedule By the time the crowdfunding campaign was over, the Breathometer raised $138,000.00 from over 3800 contributors.

Charles Michael Yim is no stranger developing new technology or taking a startup company from an idea, to being acquired by a large conglomerate which the Sharks are going to love. Yim was the founder and CEO of Chatterfly which was started back in 2010 and successfully raised $1 million seed money in February 2011. Later that year in December 2011, Chatterfly was acquired by Plum District (a Kleiner Perkins Co.) who was only interested in the technology to further grow their version of the Daily Deals Business.Read More Here-->>>

Lifter Hamper Update

Spring Loaded Clothes Hamper -  Season 4 Update

The Lifter Hamper
Finished Product

 I'm not sure how I missed this one, but the Lifter Hamper has to be the coolest clothes hamper on the market that thousands of people with back problems are going to love. The inventor of The Lifter Hamper is Marvin Phillip, a NFL Star who was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steeler's back in 2006. In 2008 Phillip had a back injury that sidelined Him for the rest of the Season when it was difficult just to bend over.

Marvin may not of been able to play Professional Football but that didn't stop Him from helping out around the House including doing the laundry. Having to bend over to complete this task, Phillip reasoned there had to be a better way. What if the hamper was spring loaded going down when you put clothes in the hamper, then rises back up when you take them out? A light bulb went off and Marvin's entrepreneurial spirit took over designing the Lifter Hamper that would make bending over a thing of the past.

Marvin Phillip entered the Shark Tank seeking $85,000,00 in exchange for a 12% equity stake in the Lifter Hamper Business. He was already in the hamper business for 6 months with contracts from two rep firms, but no real sales yet to speak of. With such a cool invention for anyone with back problems, it would seem like a great product for Lori Greiner's QVC Show. But a product that has not proven itself in the market yet, and an extremely high valuation at this point in the game, left Lori very little choice but to go out. In fact all the Sharks go out as it appears Phillip had made the most common mistake for contestants not getting a deal on the shark Tank by over valuing their business.
