@NYTino24 I want that! I'm being cheap though and noticed they do free shipping codes on their fb page sometimes so I'm waiting for one of those

mariposa_767s

@NYTino24 I pick up my baby box tonight!

CubsFan7

@NYTino24 I wish I could order a box! 

Walmart has prenatal boxes and baby boxes for free. You just pay $5 for shipping. https://babybox.walmart.com/

I didn't take a picture of it but so far what has come in the mail is a free sample of the premama prenatal drink mix with a $5 off coupon. It's pretty pricey in my opinion for the supply you get but I think it is well worth the try for those that are having a hard time with their prenatal vitamins.

they don't have any of these in Canada

I registered at target mainly to remind me of the things we need for baby #3. The gift bag you get has a bottle, a pacifier, full pack of target wipes, travel bag from pampers with a diaper and some wipes, trial pack from honest and company. And you get a buy one get one free Starbucks coupon. Also they send you a baby item book in the mail that has a coupon in it for a free $20 gift card.

@bcashaw TBH, I'd take your maternity leave over a free (plus shipping) baby box any day lol

ETA: But also, I found this I didn't look into it too much so I don't know what comes with it but it's an option! https://babyboxcanada.org/register/

@DuchessOfCambridge valid point.  I'm signed up for that baby box now it's just a waiting game! Thanks for looking!

I will edit with a pic of my Amazon Baby Box when I get home. Disclaimers: you need to be a Prime member, make a $10 order, create an Amazon Baby Registry, and they are currently out of stock and may not offer it again.

can't find my pic and I mixed stuff I got from different boxes together, so I borrowed someone else's pic with the same stuff

I got my Amazon box.  It had an Avent bottle, a swaddle blanket, a wipes pouch, several samples, and some type of protein bar.  All in all, I was pretty happy with the contents.

Thanks for sharing!

I follow Pink Rose Mama on Facebook and she posts a lot of good baby deals.  Today we were able to order a pack & play off Amazon for $26.  She will also post a lot of Amazon diaper deals.  Each time she posts a pampers deal for like $18 I buy another box to stock up.  Worth a look.

Select Lillebaby carriers are 30% off today https://www.lillebaby.com/sale/complete-airflow-blue-aqua.html

@jess0211 DANG those are expensive! Sticker shock to the max since I haven't really looked into carriers yet!

angty1111

@DuchessOfCambridge I've used a Tula for the past 1.5 years with my daughter. It is so comfortable, I'm obsessed with it! They're having a sale on some of their last chance carriers if you're in the market 

av2323

@jess0211  I want a Lillebaby so bad.  I should probably pull the trigger while they are on sale.

jess0211

@av2323 I have it sitting in my cart lol i need to pull the trigger as well 

jess0211

Andplusalso target has $5 off boxes of diapers and if you buy 2 you get a $10 coupon.  I am spending wayyy too much $$ today.  And target registry bag goodies pic

av2323

@jess0211  I went for it.  I wanted the charcoal berry and it was one of the sale options.  Amazon had it for $125 and this was $87.50.  Now to sell my Ergo and recoup some of the cost.  Thanks for the heads up.

jess0211

@av2323 so did I!

I ordered the airflow in Caribbean Sea since it is the most gender neutral color on sale and we don't know the sex. I've been looking into carriers for hiking with DD2 when we're in the redwood forests this summer. Love that it holds 7-45lbs! Thanks for the tip!

I love my lillebaby!!!

pawcall

I loved my lillebaby, and my Tula, and my kinderpack. All got sold to fund an infant kinderpack when we were TTC and I can't wait to use it!

I have posted these before, but I snagged some good deals on the following:

• Huggies Plus Natural Thick Wipes 1,160 count--$17.99 (reg. $26) a box from Costco (bought 1 year supply)
• Pampers Swaddlers--.09 cents a diaper (reg .22 each), ended up buying a few boxes in different sizes...since it's Walmart, I can always return if we don't open a box

ariasbabyblog

I highly recommend donating any opened or unopened boxes of diapers to your local food bank. Food banks are always needing baby items as well as food stuffs. Our local food bank accepts opened boxes of diapers, but I'd check your local regulations.

@ariasbabyblog I would definitely donate an opened box of diapers if they accept it and once baby is out of the diaper stage would donate what's left. But during the early months, I would prefer to return/exchange for a size we need. Taking maternity leave, I will be taking a $15,000 pay cut. We have planned for it, but also developed a strict budget to maintain. We won't be broke, but money will be tight. So I definitely understand the sentiment and need, but would want to make sure we have what we need and then donate the remainders at the end.

For anyone wanting carriers, check out Babies R Us. They aren't always easy to find in the store, but I got these 3 on crazy discount at two different visits. Ergobaby originally $134.99 marked down to $59.90. K'tan originally $49.99 now $19.90. Lilliebaby $149.99 down to $39.90. 

The swaddles were at TJ Maxx / Home Goods for $19.99 marked down from $40.

dragonfly87-2

@NYTino24 Great finds! What are you planning on doing with the extras?

My plan has been to visit the library after baby arrives and they have a mom's group that brings about 20 carriers that you can try on with baby. Then we will hunt for a good deal on the one we like.

am+mommy

@NYTino24 that's amazing! If I lived close to these places I would be all over those deals!

NYTino24

@dragonfly87-2 I am planning on keeping them and trying them out. We won't have a lot of use for a stroller because our community has small, windy (surprisingly busy) roads around the lake and no sidewalks. I think one of our friends or family members will give us one anyway. We will also hopefully have kids close together since I'm 34, so DH will probably use the Lilliebaby and I'll use the K'tan when baby is little with Ergo when it's bigger.

@pawcall which print did you get in the KP? I want to get an infant one. I have a preschool one I used with my son but I cannot wait to find a super cute print. I almost bought fantasy forest but I think I'm going to try to find a used serengeti as it's my diso. 

dragonfly87-2

Just bought a few things off Amazon thanks to a deal posted by Pink Rose Mama. (Thanks @av2323 for the suggestion).

•  Small Halo sleep sack for $9.87 with free Prime shipping (other sizes are $17+)
  
  
  
• JJ Cole Diaper Holder for $10.96 (reg. $18.99) 
  
  
• Yazel Wool Dryer Balls for $10.99 reg $25

I got a pre-loved one because I was desperately in love with it. Fire family here :-)
