Steals & Deals

My previous BMB had a thread for any good deals or freebies that might be relevant. 

For anyone not aware if you text "toy" to 827438 you can get a 25% coupon good for almost any toy at Target.  It started today and runs through late November.  It looks like it even works on big things like swing sets which can be a huge discount!

Crazy couponer here. I’ll be sure to share deals, but everyone should know about camelcamelcamel.com. It tracks the previous prices of your amazon stuff, and you can set a low price for it to email you when it dips. DD has a Graco 4ever car seat, and I kept the alerts on in case I need another (we already had to replace one due to getting hit on the freeway), and just yesterday it emailed me it was on sale for $200 from regular $300. It’s saving with barely any work.

Reviving this to let you know that if you have a Verizon unlimited plan you can login to your account and get a free year of Disney+! I'm at home with a sick toddler today so this is a lifesaver for me!

@bananapanda I have to figure out how to get into my ILs account to do that. We're on their plan.

You can find Targets black friday flyer online now and they have some really  good deals on car seats. Check them out. 

Austenista

3pk of 3oz Aquaphor online at Samsclub and Amazon for $15.

Melissa and Doug toys are on sale on Amazon today. Not baby related, but good deals for the older children.

Anyone doing any black friday shopping for baby stuff? I saw Target has some strollers and things half off for black friday. Also, when do you guys usually start planning the nursery? I read mixed things about the time. (Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this!:))

@doctorcrime 🙋🏽‍♀️ I already told DH I think we should get a crib on a black Friday sale and maybe another big item. Seems like we probably won't hit another big sale weekend before it gets closer. Also thinking I'll finally get some maternity pants because as of this week nothing fits anymore!

@doctorcrime thanks for the head's up! I need a new infant carrier and stroller!

@doctorcrime It really depends on if you’re having a baby shower and have people that plan to buy for you. If you are, but want to buy some bug ticket items make sure to specify what you don’t need. I’ll be cyber Monday shopping for a few things. Mostly a pack and play and the car seat. 

catem07

I don't expect to have a shower for this baby so I'll probably keep an eye out for deals on the things on my "registry"

Not sure if anyone is looking for a convertible car seat, but Kohls is having a good sale on the Extend2Fit for $119 plus you get $30 Kohls Cash!

I found this awesome black friday baby list with links!

@pirateduck Great link!  Here to put in a plug for the Lillebaby COmplete Airflow 360!  That's a great price!

Also, Amazon Prime day is another great time to buy a convertible car seat, too!  They usually have that in July, so I'll probably snag one either then or next Black Friday, since I won't need it for a while.

@pirateduck I just bought another PNP bassinet - it's the Nearby Napper. It was $100 off on the Graco website. I compared it to Target, Amazon, and Buy Buy Baby. So if you're thinking PNP, you might want to get it directly from Graco. Pic in spoiler.

@doctorcrime I am starting the nursery now. But we also have to fix the flooring and move DD out of the convertible crib. So we are starting the flooring process today, then her bed and new furniture arrive next week. But I also already have the furniture, strollers, car seat, pnp, and clothes. My Black Friday list is super small- new BFing cover, more cloth diapers, solly wrap. I vote to spread out the cost as much as possible, and Black Friday brings pretty good sales that you won’t otherwise see on baby items unless certain colors are being discontinued. 

pirateduck

Chicco also has 20% (maybe it was 25%) off a bunch of carseats on their site.  You don't see the discount until your item is in your shopping cart.

rachelg777

@Linsbins you just reminded me I want a solly wrap 🙈 they are doing an early sale tonight!

heyybritt

@rachelg777 is that on their website or another retailer??

ruby696

@rachelg777 When is this sale supposed to start? Because I have mine in the cart, but don't want to check out until I can get a discount.

Linsbins

@rachelg777 @ruby696 it goes 6-9 PST! I got the vintage floral one. Not as cheap as I would prefer, but I think that’s the biggest sale they do. Mine came out to $58 since they charge for shipping. 

@heyybritt their own website. 

rachelg777

Yes 6-9 PST! Code is EARLYBIRD30 for 30% off $100 or EARLYBIRD25 for 25% off anything less.

ruby696

I got mine in Cinnamon. I was on the fence because I don't know how long I'll be able to use it with twins, but since it was on sale...🤷‍♀️

pirateduck

Motherhood Maternity has a great sale that’s already started too.  Tanks for $5, extra discount on clearance, lots of clothes for $25 or less.

catem07

Everything summer infant 50% off until Thursday night. Code earlybird19.

ETA on the summer infant website @rachelg777

rachelg777

@catem07 where at?

Just a Black Friday PSA... for some of the bigger (and smaller) items you could even wait until next Black Friday. The kiddos will be around 6 months old. Things like jogging strollers, high chairs, convertible carseats, exersaucer, walkers, toys, and more. I bought my BOB stroller through Target with a Black Friday deal and my completion discount after DD was born. However she was a November baby.

Linsbins

@m6agua that’s my plan for convertible car seats and a high chair. DD has the Graco 4ever and that’s what I will get for baby, but it’s often on amazon cheaper than any of these Black Friday sales. The car seat I have an alert set on camelcamelcamel.com, and I found a high chair I like at target. I’ll wait for one of their spend $100 in baby items and get a $25 gift card deals.

Zutano booties on sale at amazon. They’re the best footwear for non-walking babies. 

pirateduck

Made a mission of buying a carseat today...  Amazon for the win with a $50 coupon for the chicco keyfit zip (plus the lowest starting price) for a pretax total of $148.69 regular price from chicco is $229.99.

rox7777

Carters is having a 60% off sale. I stocked up on some clothes since this is our first girl. Free shipping too. Season appropriate clothes are tricky to find in stores right now,
but I found some good stuff online. 

rox7777

Target has a 15% off coupon: Baby15 Just bought a few of our big ticket items because the cyber Monday sale is actually pretty good for certain stuff.

shamrocandroll

I ordered a new mattress on Black Friday, then went back today and noticed they still have the same deal for Cyber Monday, BUT Rakuten/Ebates is offering 15% cash back now instead of just 4% I got on Friday.  So I contacted them and had them do a refund of the mattress I ordered Friday and then I reordered it today.  That's like $200!  

I also just ordered DS's new bed frame and mattress for his (not yet finished) new bedroom.  After what felt like months of researching.  I'm exhausted, haha.  

jrouge12

@rox7777 @shamrocandroll Lol. You guys did better than me. I briefly looked at big ticket items and then just ordered maternity leggings. 😂

rox7777

@jrouge12 I eyed the mamaroo with DS2 but never bit the bullet. It’s on sale at target for $153.99 and there’s a 15% off coupon and I have the red card so I got it for $130. I finally justified it. I also got the PNP for a steal and saved $95. Not gonna lie, I bought a few bras and leggings too, because I mean, it’s technically baby related. 😂

cmhme

@jrouge12 I also looked briefly at some items and then also just ordered leggings! Some decisions can wait for another day ;-)

bananapanda

Target is having a sale if you buy $100 of certain baby items you get a $30 gift card.  Time to stock up on diapers!

catem07

@bananapanda oh thanks! I'm getting three boxes of 3s and two boxes of 4s in the up&up brand (plan on using pampers swaddlers for NB-2).

bananapanda

Also just saw they have a similar deal on Amazon for $30 off $100 baby purchase eligible on certain items (which appear to be the exact same items as Target), but you can also use subscribe & save on these I think to save even more.

Nordstrom has a 20% sale on Uppababy strollers. I hear these only go on sale once a year when they are trying to get rid of the last year's stock. It's expensive but I thought I'd share just in case. The VISTA system which comes with a toddler chair and a bassinet are down from $899 to $719.
