Anyone know if they are doing free tickets to the rds baby fair? Got some with sma website last time. 30 for a couple to go in is steep enough.

Amazon/online shopping not for everyone, but we recently got these on Amazon, 6 x the Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Big Bottles (260 ml).

They're actually even slightly cheaper now than when we got them a couple of weeks ago, 6 for £12!! (about €13.50)

Milly33

thank you that is very good. I always well me and amazon did not get on, but a few recent orders have all gone great. Might pick up a pack of these. thanks again

Hi all! We are away this weekend and missing the RDS baby fair unfortunately. Does anyone know of any good discounts at the fair? Possibly then the stores will be able to give the discount over the phone.

There was €25 off one of the buggys we were considering and some good deals on bottles from flyer below. Huge tomee tipee stand but didnt get to look as it was jammed. It was very busy 12-2.30ish

I EBF for 6 months and combined fed up to 12 months. Breastfeeding is not cheap, breast pads, lanolin cream (very expensive),lactation consultant, nursing bras and clothes and a breast pump if you're pumping. Yes, absolutely best for mam and baby but it does come with it's own costs

Yes i tend to agree. I breastfed both kids and most likely will the third but it is not cheap at all. The initial outlay is quite high ... tongue tie clinic, lactation consultant, osteo appointments, bf bras and clothes, many remedies for sore boobs in the early days, breast pads, pumps, bm collection bags, The list goes on and on.

Considering the username, the website they are promoting and their post count I would assume this is just spam.

Yes I did get that, just wanted to set the record straight on it for anyone not informed on the costs of breastfeeding

I posted it here because it is my opinion about breastfeeding
I am a supporter of breastfeeding for various reasons, including health for the child and mother

Then you should share in the Breastfeeding thread. Otherwise it just looks like spam.

I'm all for breastfeeding but it's not the place in the bargains alert thread.

Wonder if shop and save vouchers can be used with that...I think so but would love to know if anyone has tried that?

Never had an issue using vouchers when buying them before, I'd say you're good to go

Yipee!!:D Thanks a million. I've loads of vouchers so trying to stock up on things we'll definitely need. I know they have an 'expiry date' so will have to double check that.

Do you mean the €10 off when you spend €50? I’ve used them in the past

Hi hope this post doesn't break the forum rules but just wanted to share a word of caution about ordering from The Baby Room UK. We ordered a bedside crib but hadn't received it after 9 weeks (10 day delivery had been promised). I got generic vague copy and paste replies any time I emailed. After 9 weeks waiting I asked for a refund which they advised would take place in 3-9 working days but they never refunded me. I'm now going via my bank to try to reclaim the money as we never received the goods. Hopefully will be able to get it back but it's a stress I didn't really need at 32 weeks pregnant. Unfortunately I've now found out from online review sites that many others have had similar experiences and are pursuing legal action etc. This seems to be the way they operate as the other stories were identical to mine. Wish I had done my research beforehand and feel so stupid for falling for this when I would normally consider myself a savvy person, but they promote really competitive prices online and with so much stuff to buy I saw it as a chance to cut costs. Just wanted to give people a heads up to avoid as they are not reliable and it's more hassle than the discount is worth. Apologies if this type of post is not allowed.
