Freebies and a Charitable Cause

If there's anything I've learned about this pregnancy it's that everyone wants to give you samples and wants you to be their loyal customer.  I LOVE IT!  I have so many coupons and samples that it's almost to the point of obscene.  And they all have websites where you can sign up for more free stuff.

Well I was sifting through my Huggies free stuff when I came across this www.enjoytheriderewards.com from Huggies.  You collect points by purchasing participating Huggies items or getting free codes from your free stuff.  You simply sign up, enter the codes in and you can start using these points to enter sweepstakes, get free diaper coupons, crayons, and more.  But what I thought was really, really cool was that you could donate your points back to this charity called KaBOOM!  KaBoom! is a charity that wants to build playgrounds close to every child. 

As soon as I learned about this program I jumped up and started ripping open the only 3 packages of Huggies I have so far, and searching for the codes.  Yes, my husband and I buy diapers and/or wipes every time we do our big grocery shopping so we have a considerable inventory once baby d gets here.  OK so the codes, I find codes in 2 out of the 3 packages I have and immediately put them in.  Then I type in the codes from my free stuff.  I now have 40 points!  So I'm going to start donating them to KaBOOM! in hopes of bettering children's lives in communities across the country.  I hope you do as well!
