Saving Money on Baby Food

I know that the ultimate way to save money on baby food is to make it yourself. Just stick some food in the food processor or blender and buzz away. But, some times, making baby food is not convenient or you need some for nights when your menu is not appropriate for baby’s sensitive digestion. (I am not going to change the diapers the day after we had chili. Sorry! Nope.)

So, that is why we stockpile Beechnut baby food. It is convenient for when we need to visit a relative and for those “chili” nights.

The best way to save on Beechnut is to catch a Buy One, Get One Free sale and then use coupons on top of that. CouponNetwork currently has these offers available:

• 60¢ off Beech-Nut® Baby Cereal Printable Coupon
• $1.10 off Beech-Nut® Stage 2 1/2â„¢ Baby Food Glass Jars Printable Coupon
• $1.85 off Beech-Nut® Stage 2 1/2â„¢ Baby Food Glass Jars Printable Coupon

Remember that in most stores, you can use a coupon for each item even if the sale is a Buy One, Get One Free event.

Also, did you know that Beech-Nut has a rewards program to help loyal Beech-Nut consumers save even more? We collect the proof of purchase stamps from each jar and then mail them in to get even more coupons.

Through December 25th, there is even a Catalina available at a huge list of stores, including where I buy our baby food ~ Winn Dixie!

Here is what the deal would look like on a regular day:
20 jars Beechnut Baby Food, Stage 2 1/2 ($0.60 each)
– $1.10 off FOUR jars (Use 5)

Total: $6.50
*Receive a $3 off your future purchase catalina
Cost = $3.50 for 20 jars after catalina

Work the deal twice and send off the labels to receive $5 in rewards coupons!

Here is what a deal might look like IF they were on sale BOGO:
20 jars Beechnut Baby Food, Stage 2 1/2 (Buy One, Get One Free at $0.60 each)
– $1.10 off FOUR jars (Use 5)

Total: $0.50
*Receive a $3 off your future purchase catalina
That’s a $2.50 MONEYMAKER!!

What is the difference between Beechnut and those other brands anyway? Sure, Beechnut doesn’t have a smiling, dimpled child on the label, but I sure do have one here…
