Buying Organic Milk – $25 Gift Card Giveaway #MyBlogSpark

by

We go through quite a bit of milk every month so what better way than to earn free milk by buying our favorite cereals. Until November 26th, purchase any four participating General Mills products, and you will either receive free milk (up to $3; limit of 2) or to receive $3 off your shopping order! Get your holiday shopping done and free milk all in one trip at any participating Kroger family store!

Now our family drinks organic milk and since we moved I’ve been able to shop more at Kroger. I really enjoy their selections since they carry my favorite local dairy brand, Organic Valley. It’s really important for my family to be able to shop at a grocery store that carries a lot of organic foods and luckily our Kroger does with even more being added.

It’s important for kids to get plenty of milk and Kroger wants to give you a few free gallons.

Giveaway!

We have a 25$ Kroger Gift Card to give away.

To enter: Tell me about what kind of milk you buy and why it’s important to your family.

  17. Thanks for the giveaway…we switch between 1% & 2 % milk; great source of protein & minerals for the kids.

  37. We buy store brand 1% milk–we buy 1% because the 2% and whole is too fatty and the skim is too watered down!

  39. We buy organic. No hormones, antibiotics or other ICK that remains unlabeled. We are what we eat, and it really does make a difference in our overall health and well being.

  41. I have to buy non-dairy milk most of the time…I change between different brands

  53. I always buy Organic Skim Milk for the family ! its much Healthier! I have to get Lactose Free for me

  58. We pretty much always buy skim milk and occasionally 1%. I do buy 2% and even whole milk for baking and some recipes though. I figure that we may as well save some fat on the milk anyway since we don’t always eat as well as we should.

  66. I buy low fat milk or fat free milk because it just seems like a better idea and better for you than whole milk . I may be wrong who knows.

  69. We buy skim because that’s what the girls like and whole for Ian. It’s important because we dont’ want bone loss later in life.

  82. We buy whole milk and it’s important to our family because we have a little one in the house who needs it still.

  85. I buy 2% milk to help stay fit and trim. But also because we like milk and I know that it can put wright on you.

  88. I buy Horizon organic 2% milk. It may cost a little more, but it lasts a month and for some reason, my kids will drink alot more of it than the gallon jugs.

  94. We drink horizon 2% by the gallon, because it’s important to my family that we dont take in extra hormones.

  101. I usually buy Horizon 2% in the one gallon. I think it’s important to our health to have organic dairy.

  113. I buy whole milk because my youngest daughter is under 2 years old and her doctor recommends it for the fat content.

  124. We buy regular milk from Kroger’s and it’s important because we use it daily on oatmeal and other cereal.

  141. We buy Vitamin D for my niece so that she will get proper nutrition and Skim or 1% for the rest of the household to reduce calories.

  150. I only drink soy or almond milk. I’ve never been a fan of the real thing. Miss_slytherin[at]live[dot]com

  153. I buy the store brand as that tends to be cheapest. It’s important to my family as that way we get something healthy and can stretch a dollar, which now matters a lot.

  157. We like Horizon 2% Milk. We just like the taste and it dose not have added hormones.

    melodyj(at)gmail(dot)com

  177. We actually switch between whole and 2%. I grew up on a dairy farm so I drink ALL milk but my hubby will only drink whole or 2%. My daughter luckily is like me and not picky 🙂

  190. I boy skim milk because my son drinks a gallon a day and full fat would be way too much for him in that matter.

  228. We have switched to organic milkbecuase I’ve been concerned about added hormones. I usually get Organic Valley at FM

  229. I buy regular 1% for cooking (my husband and I don’t drink it) and organic 2% for our toddler. Milk is so important to her growing bones and I love that she loves to drink it so much!

  235. I have started buying Almond Milk and we love it. It doesn’t work in all recipes so I still have some regular milk on hand to cook with.

  239. We drink 1% – good for keeping me from getting osteoporosis, plus my son is one of those kids that could drink a gallon of milk just while he’s rummaging around looking for something to eat!

  246. we drink skim milk for me and my wife and organic whole milk for are 16 month old child. just liked ordinary life on face book

  250. I buy 1% milk for my kids and soy milk for myself. They love milk and especially chocolate milk sometimes.

  254. I buy 2% milk for my family and 1% for myself. My little grandson uses soymilk. The calcium is an important part of drinking milk – plus we love the taste.

  262. I used to buy organic milk, but my budget doesn’t allow for it now 🙁 so I just get store brand non-fat.

  264. I buy organic milk from a local dairy. I like the idea of providing milk without hormones to my family and I’m supporting a local business.

  299. We buy 2% Milk. It is important because it gives the kids something to drink with their meals that is good for them.

  310. We buy whole milk and Almond Milk. I have several who are allergic to milk, thus the Almond milk and the whole milk is for the 2 year old

  322. My husband and I drink 1%, I give my girls whole organic milk because it’s important for their growing bodies
