Mama Bargains: One great deal at a time

Do you love a great deal? Well duh, of course you do. So check out Mama Bargains http://www.mamabargains.com/ and get hooked!!!

"Here's how it works: WE OFFER MORE THAN ONE DEAL A DAY! We just do it one deal at a time. We don't list items at a certain time of the day, it's very random, mysterious and completely unplanned what products we will feature and when they will feature. You need to keep checking back throughout the day to find new deals, once one is gone, you will see another new deal immediately after! Most days you will see anywhere between 2-10 deals during the entire 24 hour period of time, so it pays to keep checking back. You snooze, you lose - you don't want to miss out on something, so be sure to refresh your browser, or follow us on twitter or facebook, you will see updates on these pages whenever a new item pops up, and remember, this will happen more than one time every day! "

Happy Shopping Mama's!

Baby Sign Language

A friend told me to download this App called 'Baby Sign ASL' from the iTunes store. It all about Baby Sign language and how it can assist you communicate with your wee one. I'm going to try it out and I'll post a review in a few weeks or so, once I've had time to test it out. If you already have it downloaded, feel free to leave a comment here on our blog for other readers to review.

The App retails for $4.99, but I hear it's worth it. It was also one of the top rated Apps on the iTunes store. If you'd like to download a copy- follow the iTunes review link here:

Children's Toy & Clothing Sale


Children's Pillage in the Village is coming up once again on October 3rd in Bloor West Village, Toronto. Check out their site or the image below for details. Last Spring, Erin, Karen and I went and found some useful stuff for the girls. It's all gently used baby items ranging from clothes to toys to books. Be warned though that once you get in the doors (and usually there's a line up first) you need to run in and grab what you want- so plan your shopping list first! The moms are nuts and things get taken right away. There is lay away on site, but it's only for a short period. You also can't bring in shopping bags, they suggest a basket, but last time we saw lots of people w/bags who still got in. If you pay cash exiting is much faster- but they do accept credit card.


Have fun shopping and we might see you in line!
