With number 4 coming in JUNE and being our first girl we decided to pick up a few free baby gifts. this one is from TARGET. To get the bag you just need to make a baby registry. I made mine online and then went to the store to pick up the gift. You can also make it in store with their customer service desk and scanner or they now have a registry app (you can use it for weddings too). With all 4 kids I normally make a registry, 1) you get a coupon closer to the end/ after baby is due to buy things cheaper 2) we have family all over that like to shop for our littles this is one way I can give them an idea of what we need/want
Now on to the gift bag. You pick this up at the customer service desk sometimes they ask you to show your registry and sometimes they don't. My sister had to show hers a year ago but I went in a week ago and didn't. It all depends on when you go and who's working the counter.
Here is the cute little bag it all came in. It is a canvas/ plastic material and I have seen several different prints over the years. I really like this round bags because there is not giant target label on it. Past bags had it written on the sides plus the logo. My boys love these bags to carry toys, picnic lunches, activities for church ect. We've used them to carry an extra outfit and shoes even. Just a great all purpose bag to have around for littles. Somehow we collected these bags from others.
Lets get to the inside. The Target Big Deal Book is filled with coupons for mom and baby. There's a Starbucks coupon in there for those with one in store. Other coupons include nursing/maternity clothing for mom, nursing gear, shampoo, Lotion, snacks, diapers, wipes, baby gear, baby clothing and more. Pay attention to the expiration dates when you pick up your bag and shop.
Also inside is a how to guide on getting a breast pump from your insurance through target. I havn't done this because our hospital fills the script and gives it to us on site for us when we get ready to leave with baby.
Finally you have little one time use sample packs of Babyganics lotion. Great for in your purse or on the go and you don't want to carry a diaper bag.
Next up Diapering samples. Honest and Pampers gives you a couple diapers and wipes. you also get a couple up & up (Target brand) diapers and a pack of water wipes. We love the sample packs of wipes for on the go in our diaper bag or my purse and it is nice to get different brands of diapers to try and see what works best for your little ones bum. All three of our boys had allergy issues with several brands so it was nice to figure that out without opening a whole case.
A few more samples. for a one time use or travel use.
Lansioh includes a couple individual packaged breast pads and storage bags. The pads are great to keep in your diaper bag, car, or purse for those off chances you may leak though you other ones. You also have travel sized lotion and bedtime bath wash both great to keep on hand in the diaper bag for a needed bath at Grandma and Grandpas after a blow out. Finally a binky. this is great when your trying to decide what brand and shape you little one likes
Last but not least bottle samples. Even if you don't use these they are great to have on hand for baby shower gifts or to pass on to another mom that can use them.
Over all the bag is free for just a little work in making a registry (or in my case a pre-baby shopping list) and worth running to the store to grab. Use the coupons to pick up the items you need and save a couple bucks to put towards date night or other needs and use the samples to stock your travel bag and diaper bag.
