Disclosure: I received a Walmart Gift Card to purchase complimentary products received in exchange for our honest review. All opinions are mine and mine alone. I received this as part of a sponsored collaboration with Balance Bar.
I don’t know about your family, but we’re on the go constantly, especially during the summer, there’s so much to do and see outside during the summer months here in Minnesota, I like to have fun things planned to do. Being on the go all the time requires you to pack snacks and treats to both save money and also to ensure that we’re eating healthy, nutritious snacks. That is why Balance bare bars are our go to snacks.
It seems so easy to grab something while on the go these days, but they usually have ingredients in them that you can’t even pronounce, and I am relatively sure you shouldn’t be eating. That is not the case with Balance bars. They’re all natural, only 160 calories each, made with real fruit & nuts. They have no GMO’s, and they’re gluten, soy and dairy free, so that the whole family can enjoy them. I really enjoy the sea salt caramel nut flavor, Jeanna loves the mixed berry nut and Gradie loves to take bites from each of us.
I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to shop for Balance bare bars at Walmart. What an easy shopping trip it was, I just headed over to the nutrition aisle, which in the Walmart I visited was near the pharmacy and there I found a wide variety of Balance bars, both bare bars and their regular bars. As I have pictured here, they have the bare bars with 1 free bar in each box as well as a $1 off coupon for your next purchase and I am certain you will make more purchases once you’ve tried them.
The Balance bars website and social media outlets have lots of useful information to share with you on ways to get into shape and stay active this summer. I encourage you to follow along to learn more;

Plan out your food.
During the week, try and strategize what you are eating for breakfast, lunch and dinner. This will help you avoid spontaneous junk food splurges due to a busy weekday schedule and will leave you a little wiggle room during the weekend. If you know you get hungry between meals, bring a snack like a Balance bare® bar, fruit or nuts from home.
