We have been adding to our BG team lately. Last week you met Kate and this week we want to introduce Jennifer. She is the newest gal on the BG block and we think she’s pretty fabulous! Say hello to Jennifer (yes, really say hello in a comment!), make her feel at home here at Baby Gizmo and read her Rewards Shopping article!
Jennifer Marino Walters is a freelance writer and editor whose work has appeared in All You, Fit Pregnancy, Parenting, and several other magazines and websites. She’s the mom of adorable twin boys and the wife of a U.S. Army major. Though she and her family live in the mountains and will soon move to the beach, Jennifer—a New York City native—is a city girl at heart. She writes about her adventures raising twins while navigating the military lifestyle on her blog, www.doubledutytwins.com

You already buy a ton of clothes, toys, books, and gear for your little ones. Why not get some freebies or cash back for your purchases? Here are some companies and retailers with free rewards programs. Sign up today!
Babies R Us/Toys R Us: The chain’s Rewards R Us program gives you two points for every dollar you spend. Once you reach 500 points, you get a $5 rewards certificate.
Expecting? Link your Rewards R Us number to your Babies R Us registry— you’ll earn points for all purchases made from your registry.
