FREE Tote - Earthbound Farms

This is from the Earthbound Farms Website:

Food represents a unique opportunity for us to reduce our environmental impact, because food choices are relatively easy to make (or change), and they make such a big difference. For example, according to the Environmental Defense Fund, if everyone in the US had one meat-free day a week, the carbon dioxide savings would be the same as taking 8 million cars off American roads.

We’ve rounded up some ideas anyone can use, and we’re calling it the Sustain Yourself, Sustain the Planet Pledge. In our virtual kitchen, you’ll be able to click on the sun icons by everyday items to see what a difference your choices can make. Then you can pledge to make one or more of those sustainable choices in your life. If you’re one of the first 10,000 people to take the pledge each week in April, you’ll win a beautiful Earthbound Farm reusable shopping tote! (Offer good in the US and Canada only; one tote per US or Canadian mailing address, while supplies last.)

This Weeks Baby Freebies

As a mom I know how nice it is to get anything cheap or free for my kids...who knew they cost so much :-) I came across this website called, The Cost of Raising Children. It lets you figure out how much you spend each month on your child. It's an interesting site to check out and then once you've checked it out and have had a panic attack you can come back here and sign up for all the great freebies that are listed to make you feel better :-)

1. Join the Huggies Baby Network and get lots of great coupons in your mail box.
Tip: These coupons are usually $1.50 - $2.00 off and lately Kmart has been doubling coupons
up to $2.00. Which means you could get $3.00 - $4.00 off your diapers. Now that sounds
good!

2. Planning Family will load you up with lots of free samples, coupons, & FREE baby offers.
Tip: I recommend taking a quick couple minutes and creating a new email address to use
when you sign up for freebies, etc. I created mine and rarely check it so companies can
send me all the junk mail they want and it doesn't bother me.

3. Baby To Bee is another one to check out.

4. Freefly's is one I check it out every week. You have to click skip through a couple of pages before you get to the gold mine. You will find all kinds of free samples and coupons organized under all kinds of categories. Yep... there's a baby category.

5. Last and possibly most importantly... Coffee. Yes, coffee. If there is one thing that I go through as much as diapers it's coffee. You have to stay awake somehow after all those sleepless nights. Check out this deal from Gevalia: 3 boxes of coffee for $3 plus a travel mug. Don't forget about Starbuck's too. I just received a free sample of Starbuck's VIA and it is unbelievably good. You would never know it's instant coffee. I like to throw the packets in my purse and then when I am out and about I can stop by a fast food joint and request a cup of hot water (they usually give it to you for free) and mix up my own cup of joe.

P.S. - another one that comes in handy for us moms (& dads) ... Jenny Craig (doesn't Valerie look great!), Weight Watchers, eDiets, Curves, & FitFuel (a vitamin/supplement super store).


Don't forget to pass this on to all your mommy friends. I am sure they would love a good deal too. You can also sign up to have all these deals delivered right to your inbox by signing up for our newsletter here.

Picaboo - Buy 1 Get 1 FREE

Some of you may have already built a photo book. This is my favorite company to do it with. I did a book of my Grandparent's pictures and sent one to members of my family for Christmas. My sister-in-law did a really sweet book for her son about the day he was born. I tried some other companies when I was about to make my photo book but Picaboo had the best (and easiest software to use) and the had the most options for album covers, layouts, etc.

Now through March 31st they are doing a Buy 1 Get 1 Free deal so you can get one for you and one for your family member or friend. Use code PCBBFG. There is a screen shot below so you can see what it looks like.

Let me know in what creative ways you use your book:-)
