    As many of you know, I have been trying so hard for the past month or two to get as many Baboo FPC's as I could.

    This collection of baby milk was not for any known charity, but for my daughter and her infant son. My daughter is 20 and unfortunately has experienced more in the past couple of years than most of us have in our lifetimes. I am so glad that her son, my absolutely adorable grandson, has saved her life in so many ways, and she has blossomed into an amazing mother. She is raising him alone, with our help of course, so every little bit helps.

    As any Mother or Grandmother, I always want to give her and my Grandson as much as I can, and once I knew about these Baboo coupons, I knew I had to do everything I could to get as many as possible and help them out in a big, big way.

    I am happy to say that I have traded for over 100 coupons thanks to all of you, which is about 3-4 months worth of milk.

    Thank you to everyone who traded with me, and especially those who were kind enough to ROAK me even one coupon.

    Trust me, I am paying it forward...



    .** Also, a special thank you to my local Shoppers Drug Mart, who's manager Julie, was kind enough to order in 35 milks, not once but twice, and allowed me to "prepay" with coupons.

    i have asked my daughter's doctor about baboo milk, he don't recommend it at all, he said there are too many calories in those, and said homo milk is the best and most natural and probably the cheapest source of milk for 1 year old and up kids. I already switched my daughter to homo milk for the past 2 weeks, and everything seems to be fine, no abnormal poops or upset stomachs.

    just checked, they expire today....didn't realize it was 25th already..

    Great Job! Thats wonderful you did that for your daughter My son drinks this to so I have also been collecting as many fpcs as possible. We go through 1 every day or so and I have not paid for it in 2 1/2 months and I still have 40 left in my stockpile So about 100 fpcs total. It has been a blessing to be able to save so much on milk. Thanks to all the wonderful traders!

    There is very little difference between baboo and regular homo milk...

    Homo Milk (250mL serving)
    160 calories
    8 Grams of Fat
    5 Grams Saturated Fat
    125 Grams Sodium
    12 Grams Carbohydrates
    12 Grams Sugar
    8 Grams Protein
    Vitamin A 10%
    Calcium 30%

    Natrel Baboo (25mL serving)
    160 calories
    10 Grams of Fat
    6 Grams Saturated Fat
    100 Grams Sodium
    13 Grams Carbohydrates
    11 Grams Sugar
    5 Grams Protein
    Vitamin A 25%
    Calcium 30%




    I don't understand why there has always been controversy between baboo and regular milk.

    BTW OP amazing brag!

    Last year around this time I had over 100 Baboo for my son as we were going through financial difficulties. It really helped on the grocery bill that's for sure!

    Your daughter and grandson are lucky to have you!

    WOW, what an incredible brag... the kindness of others always amazes me as well. I'm sure your daughter will be thrilled - she is blessed to have a Mom who cares so much.

    I had never heard of this Baboo milk. Will have to go read up now.

    "Theodore"'s elastic was in amongst the Baboo cartons, and rather than keep trying to get him out of there, I just made sure to get a good shot where he was smiling

    How are your rescued kitties doing?
