Woman Advertises Breast Milk For Sale

Tuesday November 6, 2007
It may be a first in the advertising world. A woman in Iowa has taken out an ad to advertise her breast milk is for sale.

Martha Heller is hoping 100 ounces of her breast milk will fetch $200. She now donates her spare breast milk to the University of Iowa's Mother's Milk Bank but what's in her freezer was pumped before she became a donor and isn't eligible for donation.

As for Heller's success in advertising, so far she's only had one phone call about the breast milk. It was a crank call.
