One I note is: Green & Black’s chocolate 3.5 oz, $1.99. Combine with the $1.00 Green & Black’s mfr. printable here — making your organic chocolate just $.99.

Common Sense with Money has all the info and codes you need to enter on the La Vic Rewards site to get enough points to print a $4.00/2 coupon for 16oz+ La Victoria items. This goes on sale at Dominick’s 2/$4.00 occasionally, and apparently runs around $2.00 at some Walmarts. The post says the deal is over, but it’s not so — I was just able to print mine about 30 seconds before posting this. Some people are having trouble printing; it’s a BRICKS coupon when you do get to it.

Update: Her post says you can enter codes up to four times — which you can — but if you try to redeem them for the $4.00 coupon again, it will tell you you’ve already printed it then will deduct the points from your account anyway.

I have a great new giveaway for those of you with little ones! Gerber has some newer foods out, Gerber 2nd Foods purees with DHA and antioxidants, and Gerber 8 Grains and Yogurt cereal. What’s the deal with these?

• Gerber 8 Grains and Yogurt Cereal helps introduce babies to the taste of yogurt — this looks like a useful idea when they’re not quite into yogurt yet but have been eating cereal. What’s in it? According to their site: “8 natural grains (Wheat, Barley, Rye, Corn, Sorghum, Rice, Millet, Oat), real yogurt, and Live and Active Cultures.” No artificial flavors, good source of iron.
• Gerber DHA & Antioxidant Purees — what I like about these is that they have some new varieties like “apple blackberry.” If you’re feeding baby foods, it’s hard sometimes to introduce new tastes during this period, especially to picky little ones. They also have 18mg DHA per serving (this is what they’re also adding to baby formula lately, for eye and brain development). Plus, since they’re fruits or vegetables, obviously your vitamin C or A.

We weren’t in the baby food stage very long here with Mr. 2, since he came over at 9 months and was Mr. eat-anything-table-food almost immediately. So it’s interesting to take a look every once in a while — you think they can’t come up with anything new in those little jars, but I guess they do!

Giving away

I’m giving away one prize pack including a Gerber teddy bear, recipe tin, Gerber DHA Purees, and Gerber 8 Grains and Yogurt product.
