    The other ones are made specifically for Target only I believe, so I think as long as it's not from target.com it would be the better one.  I got some from amazon and diapers.com and both were good.

    We got some Target ones as a gift and they are super soft. I was at a store in San Francisco last week that sold the non Target ones and they seemed no more softer then the ones we have. I didn't realize there was a difference I guess.

    thanks! the ones on diapers.com right now are $29.99, 15% off and free shipping.  thats less than half the price of buying them on the a&a website.  i wonder how they can sell them so cheap.  unfortunately they don't have the print i want, but for that price, i'll find something else!

    Mine were a gift from babies r us. I had no idea how much I would be using them - we have three and are using them around the clock. They are the perfect weight for this hot weather..

    I have both and the original are softer. Original are also 4" bigger I believe. I think original is 48" and Target is 44"...

    Sleep sack is awesome- we have 2. Their burp cloths are the best I've used- they have a snap so it can be a bib too and they absorb everything. I love their stuff!

    If you see them for $29.99 they are probably the same as the ones from Target - Diapers.com and Babiesrus both sell the same ones as Target - the 44 inch ones.  That said, we got ours from diapers.com with a similar deal that you've found, and we love them.  I can't imagine why I would need them to be any softer than they are - they are extremely soft and perfect for the warm weather.  I don't think we need the extra 4 inches either.  LO pretty much stays wrapped in one all the time!

    I have them both and prefer the original ones much more over the target ones.  The ones from target say on the tag on each blanket "Aden & Anais for Target" the ones that are the original just say "Aden & Anais"

    Also, the Target ones come in a vinyl package where the original ones come in a cute box.

    i ended up ordering the print i like on blanketmybaby.com.  they were $38.95+$5 shipping, so still saved about $13 or so (the shipping on the a&a site is expensive).  they are the 47" ones so i think they are good.  also, i noticed all the ones i see online for $29.99 are not patterns on the a&a website.  maybe they are older patterns, but they are also the 44" ones, so maybe different quality.  not aure.  thanks for all your help girls!

    Watch Babysteals.com  I have ordered their blankets and sleep sacks from there.  They go pretty quick though.  You can sign up to get their daily email alert.  I love them.  The sleep sacks are also great!!  We use them every night.
