    Playtex Baby Nurser Starter Kit with Drop-Ins – $4.99

    playtex nurser

    Playtex Baby Nurser Starter Kit with Drop-Ins – $4.99

    UNTIL Midnight TONIGHT! (9/19/09)
    This set retails for $15.99 on Amazon!

    Kids Woot has this FABULOUS deal on the Playtex Baby Nurser Starter Kit – This kit includes  five bottles (two 4-ounce and three 8-ounce) are all of the disposable-liner type–an open-ended plastic sleeve with ounce markings up the side. But the pack includes both standard plastic-bag style disposable liners (in both sizes) and five each of the Playtex Drops-Ins, which are semirigid and have their own lip at the top for convenience. There are also four different kinds of nipple: infant, round, older baby, and orthodontic. One of the 8-ounce sleeves has an “Eazy-Feed” system–essentially, an inner ring that can be pushed up from the outside with one thumb–that acts as a built-in burper.

    I used these bottles with my last kiddo and plan on using these with #3 as well. The greatest thing about these? They use drop in liners so you have to do minimal bottle cleaning! (just make sure you wash out the nipples!) Target sales generic drop-in’s which are just as good as Playtex’s and at a significant savings.

    We bought 6 packs of these (3 on my account – 3 on my husbands) – you are limited to 3 per account. For $42 shipped with tax – I’m pretty sure Itty Bitty has enough bottle to last her until she moves to a sippy cup!

    Here’s the what Woot has to say:

    Your unborn child will soon be entering the world. You want everything to be perfect. That’s why you’ve got to ask yourself: Skinner Box or Wire Mother? Either way, the Playtex Baby Nurser Starter Kit will be ready to help.

    Between the two four ounce and two eight ounce Original Nurser holders, you’ve got it all covered, from a light snack to a full feeding. That means you can easily teach your infant with the most basic type of punishment/reward model there is. Before long they’ll be understanding the connection between the green light and the red lever, and you’ll have them doing simple tasks and tricks that can amuse and amaze your party guests, making them want a child of their own! Or, perhaps, a well trained raccoon.

    The Playtex Baby Nurser Starter Kit comes with a variety of nipple attachments, allowing the child to decide which texture he or she prefers. You also get ten liners that are certified BPA free. With just a little work, a few screws, and a piece of thick carpet (not included) you could create the perfect babysitter, just like the kind used by zoos around the world. You’ll be saving money and preparing your child for a life of self-reliance, all at the same time!

    Much like a pigeon can be trained to steer an atomic bomb, so too can an infant learn to do the dishes, mow the lawn, or even find that missing remote under the couch. Take advantage of scientific breakthroughs, and let the Playtex Baby Nurser Starter Kit help. Won’t you feel proud the first time your child solves the laboratory maze?

    Happy bottle feeding – this is a HUGE bargain! Enjoy!

    Ottoman Set – $99.99 Free Shipping

    ottoman set

    Ottoman Set – $99.99 Free Shipping

    We have a similar ottoman bench as our coffee table in the family room. It works great with kids and also serves as a foot rest.  For $100 this is a great deal – and when the kids do ruin it – it’s $100 not $400 :)

    This storage ottoman is a great design with many purposes. Slide it into a small space to add some extra seating or place a few together to create a table setting. Flip the top over and use it as a tray for serving food! The trays may be wiped clean and waxed with any commercial furniture polish. The removable top cushion reveals a storage compartment that can conceal any unwanted clutter such as magazines or remote controls. The dark wood serving tray in black faux leather provides a stylish, yet useful accent to this multi-use storage ottoman.

    Happy Shopping!

    Finding Affordable Maternity Clothes

    maternity

    So this whole 2nd trimester thing has totally not allowed me to wear any of my normal clothes.  The great maternity clothes that don’t make you look entirely like a whale search has begun.

    Here are some discount site that i’ve found that offer maternity clothes that don’t look like something from 1980′s. By the way, I do know that the 80′s are back fashion-wise – I am just praying to sweet Jesus that maternity 80′s clothes don’t follow that trend. This mama is NOT wearing acid-washed overalls for the next 6 months.

    target

    I have found some cute things in the store – after digging. The selection is okay. I have found better luck shopping online. The good is the clothes are cheap, stylish and last a heck of a lot longer than anything I’ve found at Motherhood.

    Here is a link to the maternity clothes

    Even better: here is where you can find the clearance maternity clothes

    oldnavy
    Old Navy’s store collection just down right sucks. I think they carry a larger selection of underwear than they do maternity clothes in store. And to top that, not all stores carry their maternity line. Again, online seems to be the better option.

    This week Old Navy is having a Maternity (and Baby) sale. I found several cute things at really good prices.

    Shop Old Navy Maternity

    wmlogo

    Walmart B&M i’ve never had any luck purchasing maternity clothes. The section is limited and I’ve never found anything I really liked. In an effort to be fair – I checked out their online selection and I don’t know quality but it’s not too bad, and again priced fair.

    Shop Walmart Maternity

    kohls

    I know several people that LOVE Kohls. It’s not that I don’t like the store, I just don’t LOVE the store. The prices are fine – as long as the items are on sale. I have learned if I like something there that isn’t on sale, I just need to wait a week because the price will drop once the item is on sale. They have totally trained their customer base to wait for the sale.  The maternity clothes are sparse in the store. They are made by Motherhood – which I am not a fan of. The clothes don’t seem to last but a few months. The sizing never seems consitent. The styles are just not that cute.

    On the other hand – Kohls does have a great shoe and jewely department (but again, shop the sale!).

    Shop Kohl’s Maternity

    ross

    Some of my greatest B&M finds have been at Ross. Ross has a varied collection. You have to be in the mood for the hunt. Fortunately for me (and unfortunately for my husband), a Ross went in about a mile from our house. I run up there a few times a week since the stock changes frequently. Often I find nothing, but its those days when I hit the motherlode that make those trips worth it.

    Finding a $9.99 pair of maternity pants is common. Shirts are often around $7.99. The jeans do go up to $24.99 but seriously designer jeans for under $30? Thank you! Another thing that I have come to adore are dresses. Ross has a great collection and though they might not be specified “MATERNITY”, they will definately work – and usually under $20!

    Ross is offline only. Each store has different but simliar stock. Often they aren’t the cleanest of stores – I find the newer stores are the best ones to shop.

    P.S. don’t miss the purses! Ross carries GREAT bags!

    ebay_logo

    I shop Ebay for a lot of things – personally have never shopped for maternity – but I have friends that swear by it. This is also a good resource for dumping those maternity clothes once bambino is born.  Definately another stop to consider. If I am forced to attend a dreaded dress-up Christmas party – this will definately be my first stop.

    Shop Ebay for Maternity

    I hope this helps a little with your quest to find afforable maternity clothes. If you have any other good affordable resources – drop them in the comments! If you aren’t pregnant – pass this along to a friend that is. Believe me, finding clothes isn’t an easy task!

    Happy Maternity Clothes Shopping!

    24 Hour Fitness 2-Year Membership – $299

    24 hour fitness

    24 Hour Fitness 2-Year Membership – $299

    The only catch: it’s a Costco deal. No Costco membership?  You maybe able to purchase with the 5% non-member surcharge.

    There is one thing that I hate more than buying a car. Buying a sports club membership. So you are thinking to yourself… I am getting a little thick – I’ll work out and get in better shape. You go to the health club where you might as well be buying a car. The club talks, pressures and makes you feel 50 lbs more than you are.  You walk out with a 3 year contract paying some UNGODLY fee each month, but they do throw in a free water bottle since you now also will be seeing a personal trainer 3x a week. Sound familiar? STORY OF MY LIFE!

    Anywho – leave it to Costco and their brilliance to negotiate a great deal so you don’t have to go thru Sports Club Membership Sales Person hell… Get a 2-year membership at 24 Hour Fitness for $299! Yep – that’s it. If you can do math:

    $299/24 months = $12.45 a month! BOOYAH to the sales team. This is a number that I like.

    14 Day FREE Trial Plus 2 FREE Audio Books at Audible.com

    Love audio books (me! me!) – Audible.com is the web’s top resource for audio books. The key to this bargain is if you don’t want your membership CANCEL IT. I’m not talking from experience or anything, I mean would I REALLY leave this membership on and forget about it for oh let’s say 6+ months (yes, I admit it – I TOTALLY did – but thankfully they have a rollover type plan but STILL, not a bargain unless you turn it off, bargain mama!).

    Happy Reading.. I MEAN Listening. :)

  • YO Mamas: Enfamil $5 Off Coupon (And How To Save $$ On Formula!)

    enfamil

    $5 Off Printable Enfamil Coupon

    Want a hint on how to continually save on formula? Give the formula company your name, address and baby details. Last go round at this baby thing – I used my Enfamil coupons about 75% of the time. I was regularly sent Enfamil “checks” that ranged from $5 – $20. I was also sent a diaper bag with an Enfamil can. When my kid got older, they sent me the formula for older kids. To the formula companies – this is their marketing money at work. To me – its SAVINGS!

    Here are a few links to formula companies to register. If this is your first kid – do know that most babies can’t just drink anything. How great would that be?  Babies are kind of like dogs – change their food and you’ll pay for it (and so will their stomachs!):

    Breast feeders – here’s a deal for you - Enfamil baby vitamins and other goodies.
