Nestle's Skinny Cow at Sam's Club

Oh… you Skinny Cow, you!

The first time I saw Nestle’s Skinny Cow products at Sam’s Club… I couldn’t get over the genius in the name of the ice cream treats. Lowfat ice cream with a fabulous name… they got me. Hook, line and sinker.

Well… now that I’m in training for a 200 mile relay race (I will be running 17 miles in all), I’ve been really trying to balance my workouts with sensible food and lowfat treats. Let’s face it… all moms need some treats. It’s just an essential part of the week (or day – depending upon the “day” we’re having!).

With my family of 6, Sam’s Club is the easiest way for us to shop for certain essentials… bread, milk, eggs, cereal, wet wipes, coffee and diapers. It’s our one-stop shop… and after this past summer, it’s been my Skinny Cow heaven. When Sam’s Club approached me to let my readers know about Sam’s Club treats – it was a no-brainer for me because these are treats I like love.

I do want to mention here that one reason I do love Skinny Cow is because their products were approved by the Best Lifeā„¢ program. The Best Life program was created by (Oprah’s fitness guru) Bob Green and it inspires and helps you make lasting lifestyle changes to improve your health.

So what is it that I sink my teeth into? Well… my sons could tell you (because I could devour a bunch in a sitting if I let myself) without so much as a hint of hesitation – Ice Cream Sandwiches! They’re 97% fat free – but you wouldn’t have a clue! They are THAT good. There are also Truffle Bars that could knock your socks off… I’m not kidding. Absolutely delicious!

Usually the big hang-up on buying ice cream treats is the melting factor. It’s not always fun. I’ve been on the receiving end… and it’s not fun. Especially being out with my boys – it’s not always easy to time our errands where we hit Sam’s last… but it’s what we try to do so that nothing will melt on the way home.

Well, say GOOD-BYE to that worry. Starting today – Sam’s Club is offering complimentary insulated freezer bags to Sam’s Club members. They have 30,000 bags available, and it’s such an easy way to make our lives easier… and an easy solution for us moms who want to avoid the MELT.

Plus… an additional BONUS – if you’re not a member already – Sam’s has given me 5 $100 Plus Memberships to GIVEAWAY! Just answer this question… are you a Skinny Cow? What’s your favorite treat!?

I will choose 5 winners on Sunday, February 7th at 5PM EST.

    I love these things – they were a lifesaver to me two years ago when I finally joined Weight Watchers to lose the rest of my baby weight, and they continue to be one of my favorite dessert treats – especially after a hectic day with my class of 5th graders!! (And the bonus is my 4 year old loves them too, and has no idea that they are “healthy food”!)

  2. Regina says:

    I like to freeze yogurt and eat it right out of the small container when its frozen. Yummy!

  3. Jillian says:

    I’ve seen those at Sam’s but have never tried them…I’m thinking I’ll pick some up on our next trip…thanks

  4. Miche says:

    I have actually never shopped at Sams AND I have never tried the skinny cow icecream, so that will be on my list to find! Are they also at walmart?

  5. Tanya says:

    Love these…thanks!

  6. Melanie says:

    These saved my “lifestyle change” when joining weight watchers some years ago. Having lost over 80 pounds, they are still my GO-TO treat when I need to eat something that is decadant and makes me feel like I am cheating- even though I am not :)

  7. Beth says:

    I haven’t tried these but like looks of the chocolate and peanut butter sandwiches! I will have to look for this brand at Sam’s this weekend!

  8. as much as i adore chocolate, my favorite ice cream is vanilla. (i know – boring!) i’m a purist!!

  9. Beth M. says:

    I love Skinny Cow. My favorite is the ice cream sandwiches: vanilla ice cream with the chocolate cookies.

  10. Laura says:

    Love the plain ol’ vanilla ice cream sandwich.

  11. Lisa says:

    The ones with chocolate ice cream look really yummy! I’m not a huge fan of cold treats (I prefer hot, melty chocolate things), but if I HAD to choose something cold (on a hot day) it would be those Skinny Cow Chocolate ice cream sandwiches.

  12. Bev says:

    Mmmmm, you’re making me hungry! I have never tried the Skinny Cow treats, but I do love “anything ice cream”!

  13. Melissa says:

    They all look absolutely delicious, but I haven’t actually tried them yet. I’m going grocery shopping tomorrow and will probably have to pick some up now . . . since I’m craving them. The mint fudge cones look AMAZING. So do the ice cream sandwiches, but I’m afraid my husband might eat those ones. This would be a treat I’d want to hoard . . . unless, of course, I won a GC then I could afford to buy in bulk at Sam’s and share! :o )

  14. Melanie says:

    I LOVE those ice cream sanwiches…..they are such a treat!

  15. Anita says:

    I wish I was skinny! I’ve never had Skinny Cow ice cream, but I really like chocolate chip ice cream. My favorite treat is Oreo cookies… at least, for today — LOL!) Thanks for having this giveaway.

  17. Jodi says:

    Yummy! I love ice cream.

  18. shel says:

    When I first started Weight Watchers last year, I would not gaze upon the ice cream section at the grocery store because most diet ice creams taste like cardboard. I bought some Skinny Cow Vanilla Truffle bars when the temptation became overwhelming and I just had to have some kind of ice cream..it was wonderful!

    I’m dying to try the new White Mint Truffle bars, they sound yummy.

  19. Tamara B. says:

    I wish I was a Skinny Cow but since I have been a stay at home mother for 15 years I forgot about me but this year I made a resolution to be that Skinny Cow I was years ago :) My favorite is their Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwiches

  20. Katie says:

    I am on my way to being a Skinny Cow… I like the mint sandwiches and my husband likes the chocolate cones!

  21. Of all time? Brownies of course! And I love chocolate ice cream with brownies in it. No brand preference on that one. Brownies in chocolate ice cream wins everytime!

  22. Amanda Starr says:

    I’m a skinny cow and a dairy fanatic in general! Vanilla ice cream sandwiches are my fav SC treat. I don’t have a Sam’s club membership so I’d love to win this prize! My other low cal non-sweet treat is cottage cheese with my favorite salsa on top, scooping it up with corn tortilla chips (a single size serving). Filling, healthy and YUMMY. Love your blog, Audrey!
