Borders is currently offering a $5 off coupon (that can be used per item) and if you select shipping to the store it’s free! So ATM I have 27 items in my cart and am only paying $15 for it because I selected several books that were over $5 so I have to pay the difference. Boo hoo. It’s works on Music too so I picked up some new CDs for the kids. You could go wild with ordering a ton of stuff but I figure I should not be a complete jerk or I could get at least 500 items for nothing.

Great for birthday, Christmas and potty training shopping! Here’s an article explaining it better but I just HAD to share this awesome deal. So run girls!

TCBY is offering .99 Waffle Cone Wednesdays! These fabulous frozen yogurt treats are 99 cents on hump day so be sure to see if your local store is doing it! Enjoy the frozen fabulousness after some fun in the sun or just as a treat out of the house with the kids. And for that price you aren’t breaking the bank! When was the last time you were able to say you could get a yummy treat like this for that price?

Regent’s Secret is having a PPB sale starting 7.28.08! Woo-hoo!! While checking my email I learned about this sale from one of my yahoo bag boards. Gotta love those women, they are ON it!

It’s on www.regentssecret.com - it’s a members only site - you have to have a referral to join. There’s no weird catch or anything. Basically members get reward points for the people the refer. Anywho, it’s legit and they have Petunia Pickle Bottom bags on sale until 7.30.08. To join please use my referral info so I can get credit, which is funktea _ 420 @hotmail . com (no spaces).

Info about PPB from their site: “Born out of a desire to bring style and sophistication to the world of modern parenting, Petunia Pickle Bottom was founded in 2000 by a trio of people who pay homage to the chic mommy who makes a statement without saying a word. Plucking the name from childhood (the head designer’s father coined the phrase when she was a little one) Petunia Pickle Bottom has become more than a silly sentimental name, it has become the brand to have.

A perennial exhibit of bold lines, daring colors and darling designer details, Petunia Pickle Bottom was created for the steadfast sophisticate inside every woman. Silk brocades, hand-woven tweeds, plush chenilles, intricate cut velvets, and exquisitely detailed embroidery—every one a Petunia hallmark, and every one an expression of motherhood’s myriad facets.”

As of now the onesies under the footie pjs is still working. He is not sleeping as well still as he did before, but I’m not sure if this is more growing pains than anything since he is almost 2 and lots of things are changing. I’ll continue updating you as we go!

Here’s my previous posts on the subject: June: Mattress Covers and July #1: Cloth Diapers

I was browsing a bag site this morning for no other reason than they are having their annual Summer 20% off sale (use coupon code Summer2008) and well, I LOVE bags. I came across the Kelty Journey in the sales section and thought I’d pass the deal onto my readers. I’m not really big into carting the baby around on my back to go hiking or out and about - I’d rather use the AT stroller but I have several friends that do. They rave over their Keltys.

This one is on sale for $155.45 + free shipping. Check it out here.

The Children’s Place has voluntarily recalled their blue camo pajamas due to excessive amounts of lead. Click here to see the report from the CPSC and pictures.

I was surfing along - imagine that and came across a daily deal website that features only green items! I thought this was not only a neat niche but also a good way to support being kinder to our environment.

Today’s feature is a 10 pocket hemp bag, which incidentally would work nicely for a diaper bag if you were inclined, for $39.99 + shipping. I can’t wait to see what tomorrow’s deal is. All the other daily deal sites I’m come across lately have treated me very well so I imagine this one will too. Click here to see the other sites I mean.

Check the site out for yourself here.

I’ve ordered several cloth diapers and covers from Swaddlebees and they just shipped so we’ll see how that goes.

My girlfriend also posted on DiaperSwappers.com asking the women on there for suggestions and lo-and-behold but one of them worked! Thanks mamas!!! We are putting a onesie on underneath his footie all-in-one pjs and so far it is working. This is the 3rd night doing so and he has not wet the bed since. HOWEVER, he is not sleeping as well as he was when he could “comfort” himself to sleep but hopefully things get better.

I will also be purchasing some 100% cotton footie pjs from The Children’s Place (the Monster Sale is currently taking place too - bonus!) per the same GF to try. She says they aren’t super stretchy, like my current ones are.
