Erin: We're back and we're talking about babies. One important thing to keep in mind is the
baby shower that awaits you. Absolutely sign up for your favorite stores and make a registry.
Mothers can walk away with cribs, strollers, carseats and more onesies than you baby can
wear.
Bitsy: Absolutely. And definitely withstand the temptation to just open up everything
and hang it up because after the baby is born and you bring it home, you might find that
you don't need all of that stuff, some of it is unnecessary and you really wish you
had the ability to return it for something you really need, like a massage.
Erin: haha yes, like a massage. Now a site we love for all kinds of deals including baby
needs is cheap stingy bargains
Bitsy: Ah those three magic words.
Erin: Yes, CheapStingyBargains.com (00:50) They have all kinds of deals and coupons codes,
as well as a caparison of your favorite retailers and ratings based on them. So look to them
as well as retailmenot.com (1:01) for deals that you may not see advertised at the big
name baby stores. And, all of our frugalicious methods still apply.
Bitsy: Alright ladies, so what do we do? We look for price matching opportunities. We
look for rebates and coupons...
Erin: Mmmhmm
Bitsy: And we order through cash back sites when we can. So lets take a minute to talk
about cash back websites. These are websites that actually pay you to shop through them.
Erin: Now let's repeat that agin.
Bitsy & Erin: They pay you to shop through them.
Bitsy: You shop at your major retailers that you would want to but you just go through
their website and they give you back a percentage of what you spend.
Erin: So let's give you so examples, if you would like to shop at babies r us, do it through
the site bigcrumbsrebates (1:41) and earn a 3% cashback. and if you sign up for ebates
rebates cash back (1:46) get 4% while shopping at Target online
Bitsy: and 7% back when you shop at the disney store. Now ok they don't sell diapers but
Junior's going to love that little vicky mobile hanging over the crib.
Erin: Seriously these are real, real and helpful savings.
Bitsy; Absolutely, now by the way, on a personal note, i just don't think that designer clothes
should be on any baby shower list. I mean, my personal rule if the kid can't read the
label, then it doesn't matter what it is.
Erin: But what if the mom can read the label
Bitsy: Well then she better get a great deal at Topsy.com or Zulilly.com (1:50) because
those sites are going to deliver those brands at 50% off and if she doesn't, she's not going
to be the frugalicious mom of the year.
Erin: and we want all of you to be fruglicious moms this year.
Bitsy: mmhm
Erin: So stay tuned and we'll tell you how to do it
Bitsy: yes
