New Brands in 2008
More Products = More Savings |
You asked for more brands and we
responded. Caregivers Marketplace would
like to welcome Aspercreme, Icy Hot,
Gold Bond and Cortizone-10 to our family
of eligible items.
Aspercreme is an odor-free rub that brings
long-lasting relief to aching muscles
and joints without oral pain medication. It
penetrates quickly and deeply, and the
relief lasts for hours.
Icy Hot temporarily relieves minor pain
associated with arthritis, tendonitis and
muscle strains. This topical pain reliever
starts out cool to dull pain, then gets warm
to relax the area. These sensations divert
attention from the pain and help block the
pain signals being sent to your brain.
Gold Bond offers a medicated line of
lotions, powders and sprays. The products
are used by both athletes and those who
simply want to relieve and prevent skin
discomfort. The powder and spray absorb
moisture, control foot odor and provide
maximum strength itch relief. The lotion
works to heal and soothe cracked and
uncomfortable skin.

Cortizone-10 is a hydrocortizone anti-itch
ointment that temporarily relieves itching
associated with minor skin irritations,
inflammation and rashes due to eczema,
poison ivy, insect bites, soaps and more.
An updated cash back form is available at
www.caregiversmarketplace.com. You can
send in a cash back form every time you
purchase five or more eligible items.

National Autism Awareness Month
|
April is Autism Awareness Month. In honor
of this special month, the staff at Caregivers
Marketplace would like to recognize all the
dedicated moms, dads, brothers, sisters
and grandparents who provide care for a
loved one with autism.
One in every 150 American children has an
autistic disorder. The causes of this disease
are still unknown. However, environmental
or genetic factors may play a role. Autism
can affect a child’s social interactions
and relationships, verbal and non-verbal
communications, or interest in activities.
Caring for an autistic child can be both
rewarding and demanding. Taking a few
minutes for themselves each day can
help caregivers regroup. Spouses should
recognize the hard work that each is accomplishing and siblings should be
acknowledged for the role they play in
taking care of their brother or sister.

|
Although every case of
autism is different, talking to
other parents through an
online support group can be
very beneficial. One online
support group is located at
www.mdjunction.com.
This site offers many ways of
interacting and sharing knowledge with
others who are dealing with similar
circumstances.
The Internet also houses other important
information for the caregivers of autistic
children. For a comprehensive database
of resources, visit the Autism Society of
America at www.autismsource.org. This
site is searchable by location or service
type. Listings include service providers,
support groups, medical professionals,
legal services, educational facilities,
government agencies, research centers
and more. |
Do I Have to Be A Caregiver to Participate?
|
Caregivers Marketplace has received
many phone calls lately from concerned
people wondering if they are eligible to
receive cash back. They asked, “Is the
program only for those caring for a sick or
disabled loved one?”
The answer is “no!” Everyone is eligible
for cash back, regardless of age, income,
or caregiving status. You won’t shortchange
anyone by participating. In fact,
the more people that use the program, the
more brands we are able to offer!
The variety of brands in the program
appeal to all kinds of people. Moms may
be attracted to the program because they
use Huggies for their newborns, while
college students may like getting cash
back on Nature Made vitamins. Adult
children may outfit their aging parent’s
home with Stander products, while a
husband may buy Glucerna to help his
wife manage her diabetes.

|
The Caregivers Marketplace cash back
program was designed with caregivers in
mind because the healthcare items they
need are often not covered by
Medicare or Medicaid. Caregivers end up
spending a lot out of pocket each year
and we think they deserve some relief.
If you aren’t a caregiver, don’t worry.
Caregivers Marketplace is happy to help
you save money, too!
If you know someone who could benefit
from getting cash back, tell them about
Caregivers Marketplace. It is free, easy
and always confidential.

You can get cash back every time you buy the following brands. Simply complete and return a cash back form and send in your receipts to receive your cash back check.
It's really that easy!
The Caregivers Marketplace does not sell products but makes cash back available on purchases made
at your favorite retailer. New products are added often. Visit www.caregiversmarketplace.com for up-to-date product listings. |
