We live in a small place, so my husband always wants to get rid of things. "These clothes don't fit — can't you use donate them?!" (What if I have another baby and my body shape fluctuates?) "We aren't going to use these coupons, I'm throwing them away." (I will gladly pass these on to someone who will use them.) "Do you have to keep your old magazines?" (Okay, so maybe I don't need to store YM and Teen People, but to the magazine junkie like myself, these are collector items!)
Before and after my daughter was born, I received countless samples from baby registry swag bags and consumer shows. These included Penaten (P.S. one little tin goes a long way!) and Similac Mom snack drinks. A week ago, my daughter woke up crying at the top of her lungs, super congested. Then a thought popped into my head: I still have an unopened sample of a baby chest rub! Out came the little tube of Aleva Naturals Breathe Easy Chest Rub. That little bit of this cream saved my night.
So lesson learned here: Keep some baby samples on hand for a little while — you never know when you'll need them. But before you try them, just make sure you check the expiry date.
