[blparent] Amazon Mom and Other Sites to consider

Wed Nov 2 17:57:30 UTC 2011

And, just so others know, you have to purchase $25 in qualifying products
during one transaction per month up to a year to extend your Prime
membership under Amazon Mom.  I love, love, love Amazon Prime.  I haven't
started paying for it yet since I recently joined Amazon Mom, but have
considered doing so once my Prime membership runs out through Amazon Mom.  

Of course, one can always purchase from Diapers.com and will receive free
shipping after $49 which isn't hard to do when purchasing diapers and wipes
and, one receives their products within two days and sometimes sooner
depending on where you live to Diapers.com headquarters.  Their customer
service is outstanding and are very helpful on the phone.

Another great site to purchase clothes/accessories for children is
Carters.com.  The descriptions on the website are not helpful to someone who
cannot see, but their customer service is also outstanding.  If you call
their 1877 phone number, they are more than willing to assist in describing
anything.  I spoke with Raquel Miller and anyone can ask for her when
calling Carters.com.  She works Monday through Friday 7:00 to 4:00 CST.

You can also subscribe to Amazon Prime for a set fee for a year.  I don't
remember what the fee is, but my husband and I feel it is worth every penny,
especially around the holidays, because we can have things shipped quickly
for no additional cost.

No, there's no limit on the length of your subscription to Amazon Mom.
What is limited is the free Amazon Prime membership that comes with
the subscription. You get three months of Amazon Prime for free when
you join AmazonMom. Amazon Prime is a program whereby you can get free
two-day shipping an $3.99 overnight shipping for many items on Amazon.
Your free Amazon Prime membership can be extended past the three
months by buying eligible items in the Amazon Mom baby store. But
Amazon Prime really is a separate program from Amazon Mom. Once your
Prime membership runs out, you can still get the discounts on diapers
and wipes (even if they aren't as attractive as they used to be, when
it was a 30% discount).

Hope that actually helped and didn't muddy the waters too much.
