nothing like waiting till the last minute.....

I went on a HUGE online shopping spree last night to buy all the stuff we still need but did not get from our registry . We just got our completion discount code, so I went to town with the gift cards we got and tried to find the best prices on the items we needed.  Helps that Babies R' Us is doing 20% certain online items when you purchase over $125. 

Most of it was essentials like infant car seat and bases, bassinet sheets, bottles, burp cloths, etc.  So glad to finally get that done!  Now to hit the store for other essentials such as diapers, wipes, etc.   I have been feeling so behind on doing stuff, finally feel like we are making progress.... with less than 4 weeks to go now.  LOL

    This was me last night too!  Finished off our registry, so we have all the essentials now, just need some more diapers and some more bottles (but it shows that someone purchased them off our registry, I just haven't gotten them yet).  I got such a great deal on my Medela pump, I had a 20% off coupon plus I used our 15% completion coupon AND my rewards points, I ended up spending only $178 on it instead of the $269 it regularly costs!  In total, I only spent $48 out of pocket to finish up.  We have the most loving family and friends who blessed us with so many gift cards!

    Now comes the organization.  My nesting itch is on, big time now.  I wish I could take off work today and just do it all right now!!

    We're doing this tonight and finishing up our Amazon registry. Most of the stuff I need immediately is already purchased, but we're getting our convertible car seats and breast pump tonight. Squee!

    Was this at BRU?  I still need a breast pump too and I wasn't sure if they would allow the completion discount to be combined with the 20% off coupon they're running on all breast pumps.
