Freebies from the Crib: Snug-a-Bug
Our first Freebie comes from Snug-a-Bug, a company recently started by our very own contributors, Krista and Melissa. The company started from just a small idea born from a mother's battle to make sure her baby was warm enough (but not sweating under all the layers) during their outdoor adventures through the cold NYC winter. A few years (and a couple of new babies) later, these two moms have turned that small idea into a company with an innovative product that solves this very problem by providing warmth without the bulk. The hi-tech fabric (with wicking capabilities) used to make their "Warmsie" sets makes them so very practical for cold winters everywhere and the styling makes them so cute it would be a shame to consider them just "underwear".
The winner of this Freebie will receive a "Warmsie" set in black (with either gold or camo trim) in the size of your choice (0-4months through 3T).
If you don't live in a place that has what my husband calls a "real winter" (he's not bitter at all about living in So CA now), check out the "Warmsie" made in a lighterweight fabric which is great for cool (not just cold) weather and pass this along to friends and family who enjoy the wintery outdoors!
How to win this Freebie:
-You have until Tuesday (11/20), midnight EST to enter.
-Make a comment (any comment) on the post
-Please don't post under Anonymous - use a Blogger login or the "other" category.
-Winner will be randomly picked and announced Wednesday (11/22) morning.
-Please only enter (comment) once.
-Tales contributors are excluded from winning the freebies--sorry :(
-Freebies can only be shipped to US addresses.
What's with the Freebie?

My freezing p-nut (he takes after his dad - wakes up in the middle of the night crying because he's cold) would love something like this.
I'm always impressed by momtrepreneurs...I still work for the man.

Hurray for moms with vision. I've been looking for non-bulky layers to take our little guy snowshoeing! I love the camo.

Looks like a good idea for people moving to Utah after living in sunny So. Cal. all their lives!

I also checked these out when they were posted about earlier. I'm not a mom, but would definately pass along to a family member. I got lots of family in Utah.

I just moved to Manhattan with husband and 2 little girls in tow. Enjoy reading your blog and finding out about experiences and ideas of other moms. Also, thanks for the great tips about the city.
