I don't know if this idea has been posted before, but what if the lactation
person/group at the hospital also was willing to "redeem" the coupons for
something EVEN BETTER. Use your imagination... a breastfeeding bag.... Mom &
Baby matching T-shirts....coupon for 3 hours of maid
service....toys.....coupons for free pizza delivery...bath lotions...coupons
for hair styling.....something that makes the formula company bags look like
what they are - vinyl bags with advertising and a couple of bucks of
formula in them. Where will you get the stuff? Ask around - many places are
willing to donate something if they get credit [and potential advertising
/new customers] for it.
We'll always be able to "do them one better" because our primary interest is
providing a service to moms and babies.
