Ikea is having a family sale through May 23rd. Dressers are currently 20% off. I know a lot of you were looking at the Hemnes dresser which is on sale for $199 (from $249)
@kvh22 I just noticed this on Amazon today too. It looks like if you are a Prime member and have at least $1,000 worth of items purchased off your registry then you get a $100 credit towards diapers and/or wipes.
PSA for any Amazon Prime members with a registry who might have created it before January 1st. For the Amazon Diaper Rewards, you have to be a prime member and have created your registry after January 1, 2017. I created mine in December apparently (not sure why - kept it private until about a month ago). The customer service agent I talked to suggested that since they couldn't do anything to activate it on my registry, that I could create a new registry if I really wanted to be able to participate. Since barely anything has been purchased yet, I opted for that but it took me about 45 minutes to recreate which was a pain in the butt...worth it for $100 towards diapers, wipes, and creams, though (in my cheap opinion).
@taylormarie923 - if you don't see it across the top (mine used to just have: exclusive offers, completion discount, welcome box, now it also has free diapers which shows me the deal and my total progress), I'd just send them a customer service email or give them a call to check before deleting and recreating (if that's what you think you want to do) since it's a considerable amount of effort depending on how much you have on there. From what the rep said, any registry created Jan - Aug 2017 is eligible if you're a prime member and it worked for me when I recreated it right away.
ETA: they were able to tell me the exact date I created it (which was in December) over the phone.
Ah boo, all the big stuff has already been purchased so it wouldn't be worth it. It tells me things that are eligible for the diaper deal, so I thought maybe I'd have it.
@taylormarie923I'm in the same boat - I was going to do what you did @kvh22 but the rep said we also have to have $1000 in stuff bought off the registry and all our big stuff is covered already. Just a heads up if anyone else is going to try and get the diaper rewards- I was super bummed, but there's no way we'll meet the minimum, even if I add stuff to the registry that we're just buying off Amazon (non-baby-related, which the rep suggested).
Do you get diaper rewards PLUS the completion discount? I made a registry just for me for the discount. I do have over $1k in items on it. Plan to purchase it all the end of the month! (I put my due date as 5/1 so I'm eligible to use it now)
@brookedeyo - I'm planning on the purcahase where I use my completion discount to make a good dent into the $1k (basically buying what's left on there that people haven't purchased for us after my shower). You have 3 months from your due date (whatever you enter it as) to use the rewards (which means you have to reach it and then use it) and it's only good on certain things (diapers, wipes, diaper creams).
Aeroflow breast pumps site is doing 20% off everything. My email said through Mother's Day but it just worked for me. I got a Sarah wells pump bag for $75!
I follow LILLEbaby carriers on FB and they post the best deals there. Right now they are having a trade in event where you send them any old carrier you have (any brand) and they'll send you a 40% off coupon good for any product on their website.

Not sure if this was already mentioned but I went to Babies R Us and purchased a crib and mattress ($300 worth) and we got a free pack n play (worth $150). Their deal was spend $300 and get a free pack n play.

I came across this, this morning: https://www.kiinde.com/slkn_product.php The link will take you to Kiinde's Twist Breastfeeding Starter Kit product page. You can select the Breast Pump you're getting and enter the code PUMP224 and you'll get the Starter Pack for the shipping cost of $6.94 and it comes with a 50% coupon off the Complete Twist Gift Set. I've read a few good reviews about the Kiinde stuff on here, so I got one.
Be sure to sign up at the Enfamil, Similac, and Gerber websites to get free samples and coupons for formula. Even if you don't use them, it's likely someone in need near you would love to have them. Or even in your BMB.

@maryallisont - Thanks! Just placed my order. That's great as I'm trying to get one or two of each type of bottle to try until we figure out what our baby likes. I love the concept of being able to pump straight into those bags and then not dirty a bottle.
I just got my first Walmart baby box (prenatal one) in the mail yesterday. Unlike the regular registry welcome boxes and bags, you have to pay $5 for shipping. It took 3 weeks or so for me to get it after signing up because they weren't in stock at the time. It's also a subscription so you get one now, a month or two after your due date, around the baby's 1st birthday, and maybe around their second? I'm kind of unclear. You can unsubscribe at any time but they do keep your credit card info and will just send you an email when the next box is going out. You can subscribe here if you're interested: https://babybox.walmart.com/. This one came with:
1 4oz. Philips Avent Anti-colic bottle
1 0-6m Nuk orthodontic pacifier
10 wipe pack of waterwipes
1 huggies little snugglers newborn diaper
1fl oz. Aveeno skin relief lotion
Sample of Balmex diaper rash cream
Sample of dapple pure 'n' clean bottles and dishes soap
I'd say it might not be worth the $5 if you've gotten a lot of this stuff in other free samples already but it also came with a bunch of coupons ($3 off huggies, $2 off little remedies, $2 off the diaper rash cream, $1 off a full size dapple product, etc. plus $1 off activia yogurt for some reason) that will make up the cost for me. And they're manufacturers coupons so you don't need to use them at walmart.
If anyone is looking to get the 2016 Baby Jogger City Select, it's currently $150 off on Amazon. Just got ours for $320 instead of $529! (Had a $60 Amazon gift card).
Kohl's has a ton of maternity and nursing clothes/bras on clearance. SAVENOW gets you 20% off. Free shipping over $75 plus an extra percentage off if you use a Kohl's charge. They have nursing bras and tanks for less than $10 each. https://www.kohls.com/search.jsp?N=0&search=maternity&S=4&PPP=60&spa=2
