Child-Saver Car Seat
Program offers savings
Members around the state are taking advantage of Texas Farm Bureau's Child-Saver Program—just one of the many "family-oriented" benefits available through the state's largest general farm organization. The safety program provides savings on the purchase of children's car seats and auto booster seats. And after your child outgrows it, you can pass the seat along to a relative or friend.
You can buy a new child's car seat for only $20, or a child's auto booster seat for $15, if you're a Texas Farm Bureau member and you use the order form (available at your county Farm Bureau office). The program is subject to annual membership renewal (limit of three seats per member). The $20 direct purchase from the manufacturer is two-thirds off the usual retail price. Here's what you get:
•Touriva 5-Pt. Convertible Car Seat 02-514FSM.
•Rear-facing for infants to 22 pounds; forward facing for toddlers 22-40 pounds.
•Easy push-button recline for comfort.
•Belt path openings for large vehicles.
•5-point harness system with one-piece harness retainer.
•Roomy one-piece shell.
•Full-wrap padded fabric covers remove for washing.
•Meets FMVSS213; approved for aircraft use.
•Colors/Fabrics.
For more information, call your county Farm Bureau office.
