Hey, if this is your first time here, subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I love it when I get the opportunity to write reviews of products I already like and new products from companies I already trust. And I like it even more when the companies give me the opportunity to share them with you by providing giveaway prizes. This time I get to do all three!

First, there’s the new Cocoa Puffs Combos cereal. Before I tell you about that one, I need to confess something. When it comes to cereal, I am so far from being a grown up. If I have to choose between something sweet with a cartoon character on the box and something with bran and wheat and some kind of coated cluster thing, I’m going for the stuff that’s going to leave me some flavored milk when I’m done. But now that I have to steal from share with my kids, I’m a little more conscious about what’s in the cereal.

The good news is that Cocoa Puffs Combos is made with whole grain and is a good source of Calcium and Vitamin D. The better news is that this stuff is good! I’m a fan of Cocoa Puffs as it is (see “flavored milk” reference above) but now they’ve added vanilla puffs to the chocolate ones. I hope somebody got a big fat bonus for coming up with that idea!

The other product that we had the chance to try is Yoplait Kids yogurt. Naturally, I jumped on the chance to review it because its already a favorite in my family. In fact, I had a Family Pack of Yoplait (strawberry and strawberry banana) in my fridge at the time and had kiddy yogurt on my shopping list so Princess wouldn’t eat all of mine. Usually, she gets the Dora yogurt or the drinkables or those Go-gurt tubes. But this time, she picked out the Trix yogurt. And she loved it.

Now if you’re worried about the nutritional value of Yoplait Kids, here’s some stats for you. It has brain building Omega-3 DHA and is a great source of vitamins A and D. Yoplait Kids is also an excellent source of bone-building calcium with 25 percent less sugar than the leading kid’s yogurt and no artificial sweeteners or flavors.

Ok, before I get to the giveaway part, I wanted to let you know that you can go to the Yoplait Kids website and get a coupon for $1.50 off. So you saved $1.50 just for reading my post.

You’ve also got a chance to win one of these:

• 1 of 4 coupons for a free box of Cocoa Puffs Combos
• A Yoplait Kids insulated travel cooler and a fun, educational game along with it

All you have to do is leave me a comment letting me know which one you’d like to win. You don’t have to pick between the two. If you’d like to win either one (or both), just say so!

The giveaway will end on Sunday, August 31st. I’ll close comments at 8 PM Central then pick 4 numbers for the cereal coupons and then another number for the travel cooler and game. (Even if you win one of the cereal coupons, you’ll still be eligible for the second prize too.)

Got it? Good! And good luck!
