I really want the admiral one, but my cousin and mom keep getting mad at me for buying baby things instead of registering for them so I sent them the link in hopes one of them will buy it for me! LOL. Fingers crossed!!

I am suuuuper tempted to buy something from the Ju-Ju-Be sale, but I already have a Fairytella B.F.F. in a bin waiting for me (and a bunch of Ju-Ju-Be Fairytella accessories to go along with it). I do not own a Be Right Back, though. Hmmmmmm...
Nov. '18 September Siggy Challenge: Falling into Fall
I always think its odd when people want their diaper bag to be girly because they are having a girl or boyish because they are having a boy. 1. you might have another kid of the opposite sex someday and 2. they don't wear it, you do! So I get whatever color/design I like. (I get not getting a girly one if your SO won't wear it)

So I started my Target registry this weekend and got my free bag. Here is a picture. The grey is the bag it came in, along with a ton of coupons at the bottom right. Next to the coupons is brest pads and cream samples, and the red is a onesie. There is also a sample of honest diapers, and target brand diapers, a pacifier, two bottles, and I’m not sure what’s in the green/yellow bag as I didn’t open it yet. I thought it was great for a freebie!

@tessiesmom26 - what an awesome bag from Target! I started my registry there but they were all out of welcome bags (go figure). I have to check again next time I go.
Not sure how wide spread this chain is, but I went to Once Upon a Child today and all onesies were 50¢. Spent a total of 22.50 on 2 pairs of shoes & 2 swim trunks for DS, plus 10 onesies.
@middleschoolmommy awesome!! Thanks for posting gonna make MH stop by with me this afternoon

Kohls is having their monthly cardholder's sale June 7th-17th.. save 30% with code BBQ30 and get free shipping with code KCSHIP.
I found a great deal for a maternity gown. It's open on the back so to me it looks more like a hospital gown you can use during your hospital stay rather than during pregnancy. I bought me one and am sharing the link in case anyone else might be interested in one:
@vrj0522 Thank you so much for this!! I just went on and bought a ton of stuff!!

Finally got my Target welcome bag. They were out for a really long time. Of course I got it after I caved and bought 2 maternity pants and a belly band. Didn't know there was a coupon in there. Shucks!
Hey, how did you guys get your amazon welcome box. Do you have to put something into each little category, i.e. under nursery do I really need to register for a glider? I just don't want to register for things I don't need just to get the box. But the box looks super useful.
Two Furbabies: Mika (american eskimo) and Gypsy (wire-haired terrier, dachshund mix)

@linz36 You don't actually have to register for anything under the categories, just check them as complete.
The only things I put on my registry were some OTC supplements that I was going to but anyway, that way they counted toward my $10 box purchase and made it so I actually had something on the registry. Got my box without a problem.
@100dollhairs It took awhile but I got my package from jujube last week. It arrived, and the next day I got an email with a tracking number. They are pretty slow.
@100dollhairs - I finally got my jujube bag a few days ago! I got an email it had shipped and I think it came that same day. Hopefully you get yours soon!

@highsteaks I haven't checked the website so I'm not sure if it applies to online purchases. But the quality is good! The shorts come in a variety of colors and styles. The shirts were pretty plain but match well with anything. And the bras were super comfy. I usually shop at Target for my clothes so these comparable.
@kamahina9 oh boo Could you have it shipped to someone on the mainland and then have them mail it to you possibly? It's not a big box. Maybe 12x12x6 if I recall correctly (I still have to box at home, I could measure it and give you the dimensions later).

@highsteaks online too! I have bought a few things from Macy’s and like them, and they always have sales. They carry a lot of Motherhood and Jessica Simpson, and then basics like BumpStart for tees tanks and leggings.
@lurvleybunchococonuts - I was thinking of doing that. I've got tons of family in the mainland so I figure I should be able to find someone willing to receive it and send it to me.
My Amazon Welcome Box delivered! It looks like I got all the same items as the rest of you who have posted photos, except no bib or second onesie, and my Amazing Baby Muslin Swaddle blanket has palm trees on it, instead of zebras! (Maybe it is a location thing, because I live in coastal southern California? )

Old Navy is having a 40% off sale site wide today when you use the code STYLE at checkout. I've been wanting to buy some maternity lounge pants and workout gear for a while, but didn't want to spend a boatload on it. Hooray for good sales!
Soma is having their semi annual sale. Some great deals for those of you needing new bras!!
I was just coming here to post about this! I got two new bras for $50 and change after tax with free two-day shipping. (Would have originally been easily over $100). I used the extra promo code “64493” I found on a quick google search that gave another 20% off the already discounted price.
