It is here. The long awaited first day of school. With that comes a long day at home for mom who can only work so much, clean so much and fold so many clothes. I need something else to do during the quiet days at home. It dawned on me the other day that there is actually no better time to get myself up and out and taking care of me for once.  A novel idea, I will admit. But taking 30 minutes a day to walk the neighborhood, join a tennis league or to go on a bike ride can be some healthy choices that get me back to taking care of me. I can also dictate what I put into my body without having to worry about the usual chicken nugget and macaroni lunch requested every day. To motivate me more, I found out that Walgreens will give me Balance Rewards for making healthier choices! I can cash those in for savings! So I might as well earn as I take better care of me!

If you have not heard of the Balance Reward program then let me give you a quick run down. It is a super easy, super fun, super saving program that allows you to earn points that equal savings that are available for you to use any time you want at Walgreens or on the Walgreens app. They pop up on your receipt and you can track them online or on the Walgreens App. Save them up or use them when you want in the photo department, the pharmacy and more! 5000 points = $5!

One of the things I am now earning points on is by making healthier choices! I can earn points just by walking, drinking water and tracking my weight and more! Seriously, if you are going to make a commitment to take care of yourself, why not earn savings for it?

Signing up and starting to track is super easy. Just download the Walgreens app, sigh in with your Balance Rewards info and you are on your way!A Day in the Life of Getting Healthier (and Earning) with Walgreens #BalanceRewards #shop

Click on the BR for healthy choices little blue man, sych your tracking device that you wear (or enter the info manually if you don’t have a device) and you are on your way! You can get a healthier living tracking device at Walgreens for a fairly affordable price! I found one and plan on using it to remind me and motivate me to make healthier choices all day long.

Be sure to also visit Walgreens and pick up items that will help you make better decisions about you! Like the water we all need to drink more of, a full of protein snack like delicious nuts and some fun earbuds to use on a walk around the neighborhood! We all walk faster with a great song in our ear! Psst: Mine were on a 50% off clearance for only $7.50!

As moms, we take care of so many and so much. Our children, spouses if we have them, our homes, errands, our work and on and on. Sometimes we just need a little reminder and a little reward to help us take care of us too. By having the reminder that we can earn Balance Reward points towards getting something for us, we can only benefit from it!
