The vast majority of the time I make my own baby food, & while homemade is much more environmentally friendly & economical, while preparing for travel, I often have to buy expensive baby food.
Several weeks prior to our trip I made a phone call to Beech Nut, to request one of their toddler kits, which includes coupons for free product. Upon telling the super friendly customer service representative that I had filled out the online form multiple times with no results, she offered to send me 2 of both the toddler kit & newborn kit.
The kits came promptly & with the coupons I was able get several boxes of baby cereal, 2 boxes of teething biscuits, & 4 jars of baby food, for FREE!
In addition to the free Beech-nut, I stopped by Big Lots & picked up some Dole Squish'ems. They're 100% fruit, and at $1.80 a box, which makes each pouch only $0.45; a phenomenal price.
Shopping smart, using coupons, & seeking opportunities for free products certainly can reduce the costs of store bought baby food, though for me, nothing beats feeding our little one from scratch, & not filling up the landfill.
