Got Milk? Enter to win a years worth of milk

Got Milk? Enter to win a years worth of milk

Being a parent there are certain things you’re going to have to buy diapers and milk.  Neither comes cheap and neither are used sparingly. There are points post breast milk, post formula that I was going to the store more then once a week to pickup a gallon of milk.  I’m sure I’m not alone… This week we’re taking care of the Milk for one lucky fan, who knows maybe next we’ll take care of the diapers (yah thats not such a subtle hint at whats to come).

Let’s get to the details we’ve got

  • 3 x Reusable latté sleeves
  • 3 x Cereal bowls
  • 3 x Insulated to-go cups (w/ lid and straw)
  • 1 x Coupon booklet for a year’s worth of free milk (well its 52 gallons but since its almost april you need to use coupons before 1/31/12 so it’s not really a year – just 52 gallons!)

Each coupon is for $4 (off a gallon of milk) which on many brands would make it free.  AWESOME GIVEAWAY?! right – I know. Let’s just quickly do some math $4 times 52 equals 208 dollars we’re saving you.

If you want to learn more about milk (sure you may want to know about all those great vitamin D facts like…) Milk is one of the few food sources of vitamin D. In fact, it’s the leading source of vitamin D in the American diet. The recommended three 8-ounce glasses of lowfat or fat free milk provide 75 percent of the daily value for vitamin D. Milk also provides eight other essential nutrients, including calcium, potassium and vitamin A, which many Americans also lack.

Research shows that nine out of 10 Americans are missing key nutrients.  To help close this nutrient gap, Milk has launched an education initiative to encouragepeople to “Pour One More” serving of milk for their families every day.

Want to give back the Milk Mustache Campaign Facebook page –http://www.facebook.com/MilkMustache – where people can “Pass a Glass” to friends through April 11th (for every glass passed, $1 goes to Feeding America for their hunger relief efforts).

Tangled the movie comes to DVD and BluRay – Review and Giveaway

Tangled the movie comes to DVD and BluRay – Review and Giveaway

Disney’s 50th full-length animated feature film, Tangled is a visually appealing, music-filled adventure full of romance and humor. The movie focuses on Rapunzel, this latest retelling begins with a tiny piece of sunlight falling to earth and a magical golden flower sprouting where it lands. The flower, and its ability to restore youth, is discovered, used and kept secret by Mother Gothel. When the kingdom’s beloved queen falls ill, a search for the flower (apparently its existence wasn’t *completely* secret) is successfully undertaken and the healing potion brewed from it restores the queen’s health. The flower’s magical abilities are also transferred to the hair of the queen’s unborn child, Rapunzel. When Mother Gothel discovers this and learns that the magical properties are only retained as long as the hair remains uncut, she kidnaps Rapunzel and raises her as her own child. Claiming that she wants to keep Rapunzel safe from a frightening world full of danger and thugs, Mother Gothel locks her away in a remote tower. While her hair (almost a character in and of itself) grows longer and longer, Rapunzel blossoms into a surprisingly well-adjusted young woman and gifted artist who longs to see the world – particularly the mysterious lights that appear in the night sky each year on her birthday.

Enter our amusing narrator, Flynn Rider, a roguish thief who has just stolen a tiara and is on the run from palace guards when he comes across Rapunzel’s tower and takes refuge there. The very competent Rapunzel restrains Flynn, hides the tiara and strikes a bargain with him – she will return the tiara to him if he will agree to take her to see those mysterious lights, which he tells her are floating lanterns. Flynn agrees and the two set off on a rollicking adventure. Pursued now, not only by Maximus – a horse from the palace guard who refuses to give up the chase – but also by a pair of thugs Flynn double-crossed AND Mother Gothel, Flynn and Rapunzel learn to trust each other as they make one narrow escape from their pursuers after another.

This movie is a new age of Disney were the princess isnt helpless she’s actually got a ton of spunk and if very independent. As with all Disney moves there is a double edge to the humor which makes it totally enjoyable for an adult to watch along too.  Adding to this great package is 3D and this movie certainly is better for it.  The 3D animation is awesome.
