From AL.com – G Mommas, a Selma-based cookie brand, is competing in a contest that could catapult the small business onto a huge national stage.

The prize? A free, 30-second commercial during the upcoming Super Bowl on Feb. 7.

G Mommas and nine other small businesses are finalists in the Small Business Big Game competition, which is put on by software maker Intuit Inc. They were selected from 15,000 entries, and now the public decides the winner in an online vote.
