Sites for discounts on baby/kid gear

I like the following websites for discounted baby gear...

Baby Earth (monday -friday)
http://www.babyearth.com/baby-sale

Baby Steals (daily deals)
http://www.babysteals.com

Kid Steals (daily deals)
http://www.kidsteals.com

Woot (daily deals and sometimes more than one a day)
http://kids.woot.com and http://woot.com

I also look at http://mamabargains.com and ebates.com

I subscribe to Haute Look (sometimes there are baby stuff on here like diaper bags, but it is kinda too pricey for me).
http://hautelook.com

I also subscribe to Babies R Us on facebook as sometime they advertise their special. I only signed up because I got $5 off a future purchase.

Shopping sites for girls!

I like these skirt onesies for girls:

You can probably find a seamstress locally that could do these for a cheaper cost.

I like these a line dresses for girls:

Music player we loved!


It's hard sometimes to come up with words to songs...we used this player from BIRTH and our son smiles when he hears certain songs since he has heard them for 10plus months.

If you don't get one like this, get something that stimulates your baby through music.

We had an activity gym, but it only played a few songs 'itsy bitsy spider', etc. That was fine, but we needed more variety of songs...

I am terrible at coming up with songs and constantly chatting with my baby (which you need to do - they need you to talk 'all the time'). This helps me sing songs that he likes. I am so bad with remembering the words to songs, but now I can sing all the songs on here. (since I've done it since birth).

His favorites on here were: 'abc song' and 'the teddy bears have their picnic'. Why is it important to have a favorite - because if you know what song they like you can calm them down when they are having a fit. It helps!

Shopping Links-name jewelry!

Two sites for customized name/initial jewelry and photo charms.

Shopping Links!

I will update all the time when I find great website for shopping for baby.

Etsy has great stores that have cute homemade baby clothes.

We use diapers.com ($10 discount for first time customers usually) for fast delivery of diapers. We mainly buy diapers at CostCo now, but we weren't members when our baby was born.

I love babyearth.com and they are so close to where I live.

I buy a lot of stuff on amazon.com because I find they have usually the best prices on things.

Definitely do research and try to find good deals on craigslist. Baby items can be so expensive. We got a jumperoo on craigslist and I wish I hadn't paid full price for his exersaucer. They don't use these items for months on end, so if you can get hand me downs definitely try that route.

We got a lot of hand me down clothes and I still don't buy a lot of clothes. We buy clothes at Ross, Marshall, Target and consignment stores.

I love babysteals.com - every day at 9am MST they have a new deal of the day.

Under 'my links' is 'A Few of My Favorite Things' - a website that has a lot of good ideas on designing and finding unique items online.
