Tell me about Buy Buy Baby.....

smiling76 · January 2011

We just had one open somewhat near me and I'm excited to visit! Tell me about it---is it like Babies R Us? Better, Worse??

Do they accept BRU coupons?

Do they accept BB&B coupons? If so, can they be expired?? And is there a limit to the # of coupons accepted (I know BB&B accepts one for each item and they can be expired...at least by my house they can be).

Sorry to be a post whore today--I feel like I've posted 10x in the last hour. Lots of baby on my mind today.

The one by me is much nicer than BRU and the salespeople are super informed and helpful.

We just had one open here and I asked the other day if you could use BB&B coupons. Looks like you can, but not the expired ones. I just signed up online for the mailing list this morning and I got a 20% off coupon in my inbox a few minutes later. I still haven't stopped by the store, but I'm going to this weekend.

It is awesome. They have a much bigger selection, well minus the diaper and food department. They take BB&B coupons and all competitors coupons. The sales people are very helpful.

I'm so jealous! The closest one to me is 3.5 hours away and that's a bit too far. They are a bout a million times nicer than BRU, have super knowledgeable salespeople and their selection of items in stock is much better than BRU.

The only downside is they seem to be a tad more expensive than BRU, but if there was one close to us I would happily go there instead of BRU. Our local one literally smells like cigarettes and feet. Like someone is walking around barefoot smoking....it is gross.

LOVE BBB. In my opinion, much more to choose from and cleaner! They take competitors coupons here in Tampa.

I love it!

The one near me takes current BB&B coupons as well as current BRU coupons. I think the selection is much better, the store is more organized and the staff is more helpful.

I do think BRU has a better clothing selection though.

I'm jealous!! The BBB closest to me is abt 40mins. DH and I went there last week because I wanted to try out the BJ city select. I love that place!!! As others said, huge selection, and the salesguy knew all about the stroller and helped me a lot. I wish we had one closer, but then I'd probably be broke from going there all the time!

I LOVE Buy Buy Baby. I like it a lot better than BRU. The employees at BBB always approach you to see if you need help and are super helpful/friendly.

I also think BBB has more merchandise in general than most BRUs. Nicer too. I love that it's set up just like a Bed, Bath & Beyond. As far a coupons, I'm not big on them so I don't really know, but I assume their policies would be the same as Bed, Beth & Beyond since it's the same company.

I love Buy Buy Baby. The one near me accepts unexpired Buy Buy Baby, Bed Bath and Beyond or Babies R Us coupons. You can use multiple coupons but they can't be expired. Also, read the exclusions at the bottom of the coupon. You can't use them on certain brands like Baby Jogger, Ergo, etc.

I am a BBB expert. I seriously shop there at least once a week and it by far surpasses BRU. I live 15 minutes from the largest BRU in the state of NC and 10 minutes from a BBB. The BBB excepts Bed Bath and Beyond non expired coupons and gift cards. On every item they will price match BRU so who is cheaper really doesn't matter. For what it's worth I have never found an item cheaper at BRU than BBB usually BBB is cheapest. The BBB also excepts BRU and other competitior coupons. Depending on the type of coupon you may have to max out at 2 per item. According to BRU that is there policy as well (They also except BBB coupons). For example if there are say 15% off all travel systems plus a 20% of a single item coupon BBB will let you combine those BRU coupons and then you can use your 20% of coupon for BBB on another item and your 20% Bed Bath and Beyond coupon on another item your $5 off BBB on another item and your $5 off Bed Bath and Beyond Coupon on another item. Total coupon usage total 6 on a minimum of 5 items. There have been times where i've walked in with 20 coupons and they have made it work. They work hard for their customers and I love my BBB and the people who work there too.

It makes BRU look like a KMart. It's a lot nicer and the staff are very helpful.

They accept valid Bed Bath and Beyond coupons and will match a competitor's price as long as the other store is an actual brick and mortar store...it can't be a strictly online store.

I also really love BBB. Coupon policies vary by location. I believe the one in my area accepts non-expired Bed, Bath, & Beyond or BRU coupons. (Even though they are the same company Bed, Bath, & Beyond around here accepts expired coupons for lots of places including Michaels and AC Moore.)

It's also important to add their return policy is super easy. I registered there and BRU. If you are returning an item from your registry BBB can tell how the item was originally paid for. If it was paid for with cash or debit they will give you cash back. If you prefer, store credit is available for all original forms of payment. BRU isn't bad with returns, but BBB was much easier.

I must have gotten lucky, because they price matched diapers.com for me on our stoller/car seat combo a few weeks ago!
