Baby Food bargain

So I HATE buying baby food because I don't like paying full-price for it.  I do make my own quite a bit, but if you are going to be away from home, the convenience of store-bought is nice. I recently received a referral to Vitacost.com.  They specialize in natural products, health foods, and supplements.  They also carry products for babies! 
Their referral program allows both the referrer and the referee to get a $10 discount code.  So, with my discount code, I went and bought $10 worth of Earth's Best Baby food.  I was able to pick up 7 (4 oz.) jars of food as well at 1 (1.4 oz.) package of their organic fruit rings!   I did still have to pay shipping (which was $4.99).  My total (since I went a bit over the $10 mark) was $5.30.  Divide that up and it comes to about 66 cents per item.  Oh, and did I mention that you can choose two free samples with each order?  So I also will get 2 tea bags to try out!  I just finished placing the order, and I look forward to getting it in the next 10 or so days!
If this is something you are interested in, please use this link so that we can both get a $10 discount code (does not apply to shipping). 

Free Pop?

I was thrilled this morning when I got an email from a major soft drink company.  Friday night, I had opened up a 12-pack of my husband's favorite beverage and found a can in the middle that was severly dented and only 1/2 full.  While a couple of other cans were sticky from the leaking liquid, the box it's self was not damaged.  So I used the "contact us" form on the website and reported the problem.  The form was very easy to use and identified all the information you needed to provide and helped you find that information on the can/box.  The email this morning was stating that they had recieved the information and were sorry that I had had the problem and were passing the information on to the appropriate bottleing facility.  They also included that they were mailing out a 12-pack replacement coupon!  Whee!  They say it should be here in about 10 days!

I Won a Cloth Diaper!

I had entered quite a few diaper giveaways recently. Most of them have been part of the 30 Days of Dipes giveaways, which I have been following via the Life With Levi blog. When I checked my email this morning, I found one from Jen at Life with Levi saying that I had been selected as a winner of one Fuzzibunz Elite diaper from Kelly Wels! I have picked out the color I want and am so looking forward to receiving it! I can hardly wait to try it on my little guy! I'll be sure to post about it once I have it and have a chance to try it out.
