Buy Buy Baby and Coupons

June 18th, 2008 by ariana

But first, I wanted to share these wall letters that reader Chantal did for her daughter’s room:

So cute aren’t they? Chantal took the patterns off the JJ cole crib bedding. What an amazing job!

Buy Buy Baby..

You may not have a Buy Buy Baby (BBB) in your area, but if you do you really should check it out in person. Their website doesn’t even begin to do the store justice.

You know how when you are at BRU its impossible to find anyone to help you? And if you do, they don’t know anything more about the products than you do? BBB is the opposite. The salespeople are knowledgeable, helpful and friendly.  Every time we’ve been there they’ve spend tons of time showing us the different strollers and their features, all without any pressure to buy.

Now I find out there’s an even better reason to shop at BBB.. they accept the 20% off coupons from their parent company the other BBB (Bed Bath & Beyond!)

This means that I (or my parents as they are buying our stroller for us, yay!) will save $130, that’s no chump change.

There are a few restrictions on the coupons, first, they must be current and not expired.

Second, there are some things you can not use them for, like furniture. Also, a couple brands like bugaboo, Graco, medela etc.

Call your local store to be sure before you go. The weird thing is, I just received a 20% off Buy Buy Baby coupon in the mail and the restrictions on their own coupons are different than the restrictions on the Bed Bath & Beyond Coupons.

So for example, their coupon excludes Uppababy which makes my stroller. But when I called to ask, they told me that Uppababy is NOT excluded from the bed bath and beyond coupon!

And the opposite is true too, so while the bed bath coupon excludes Graco and Medela, Buy Buy baby’s coupon does not. It seems like if you have both coupons, you’ll be able to save 20% using one or the other. The only exception is on Bugaboo which is excluded from both (figures.)

I just wanted to share this information because 20% is twice as much as most registry completion discounts and it’s worth investigating if you have a BBB in a town near you!

    Aw, thanks for posting the letters! *blush*

    I’m in Canada so no Buy Buy Baby for me. Too bad, this sounds like an awesome deal. I’m so sad, I’m really starting to hate Babies R Us.

    Wow - this is the most helpful piece of information I have learned all week! Too bad I didn’t know this 18 months ago, when I bought up half the store!! Thanks for sharing :)

    it is a great deal.. but take advantage of it now. They’re only taking Bed Bath coupons because Bed bath just started offering buybuybaby’s items on their website. Sometime in the future Bed bath is supposed to include the exclusions buybuybaby has on their coupon to the bottom of their’s as well.

    I went to my local BBB yesterday with a few bed, bath and beyond coupons - they told me Graco,Medela, Mustela, clothes, furniture and pampers are excluded. She said basically you can only use them on toys and a few misc. items. UppaBaby is excluded as well.

    I so totally agree about Buy Buy Baby - I just had my first shopping experience there and I have to say - what a treat! Every single person working in the store asks you if you need help with anything and if you do - they actually know what they are talking about. And if they don’t (it’s not their department), they will find someone who knows. They will also match their price if a competitor offers the same item at a lower price - so, make sure you know your prices before you go, because some of Buy Buy Baby prices are indeed higher than, for example, BabiesRUs.
    Good luck to everyone! ;o)

    I cannot beleive this! I am a sister-in-law who wants to spoil my future niece by purchasing things off the registry. Just called the local Buy Buy Baby & they said YES, so long as its not expired!! They also told me to read the print on the bottom of the coupons. I’m going shopping! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
