Baby Heist is another "deal of the day" website, but this one isn't all that popular..yet! I don't think too many moms have heard about them at this point. I can't even remember how I lucked out and found it. Quite often they feature Melissa & Doug products on there, which I love!!!
Baby Heist is a small business...run by 2 moms and they are based out of Ontario. They even have a warehouse that you can choose to pick up your order from. Wish they were close to me, I'd totally be into that! They even have archives that you can check out, just in case you missed something! You might get lucky and find it there!!
Head on over to babyheist.com and see if you can score a deal!

True Cuddles
Here's a Canadian website for kid's stuff, similar to Baby Half Off and Baby Steals, but they are based out of Abbotsford, BC. and they post a deal a week. It's called True Cuddles. I find that they have some unique products and also some well-known brands.
I've purchased some Kula Klips belts from truecuddles.ca. They were 50% off the original price and they are super cool! The shipping was reasonable, it arrived in good time and everything was in perfect, brand new condition with tags. I know some people have concerns about some sites not selling brand new products, but I've never had a problem like that.
So, go check out True Cuddles and sign up for their deal alerts! You never know what they will have next! Maybe just the item you've been looking for (and didn't even know it!).

The Children's Place!! A Great Place to go!!
Ever since I found out I was pregnant over 4 years ago, I have been shopping at The Children's Place in our local mall. I find their clothes to be one of the best in quality and their prices are reasonable...which means a lot to me!
Last year, in the Spring of 2011, The Children's Place finally opened up their online store in Canada! This was a great day for me! Although, I do like going into the store so I can check out the clothes and make sure the fit is right, but it's not always the easiest to do. Today they have FREE SHIPPING on all orders. This is awesome because whether you order something that's $3.99 or have an order of $50+, shipping is still FREE (it's normally a flat rate of $8)!! I can tell you that their shipping is super quick. I've placed an order on a Sunday and received it the next day....AMAZING!
Let's get back to their clothes. Their t-shirts are great, always soft material and they keep up to the obscene amount of washes that they will be put through. I have many, many of their shirts for both my daughter and my son. My daughter is 3.5 yrs old and she actually wears the girls 5/6. I really don't like tight clothing for either of my kids, so I always opt for the bigger sizes. I do find the girls shirts to be a little narrow. As for my son who is 22 months old, he's still wearing 12-18month shirts which I believe is because they are made a little wider and he's not tall for his age, so he's able to wear this size a lot longer. The 24 month size shirt does fit, just a little baggy, which I do like that look as well.
I like their pants and shorts for little boys, too. Especially the little cargo shorts. I bought these for my daughter (yes, the boys shorts for her!) and now my son is wearing them and they still look brand new! Same with the cargo pants. She wore them and now her brother wears them. They are a great quality pant! I sell my kids' clothes as soon as they don't fit (I take them to a local consignment store), so when you buy a good quality item, you can still get money for them. That's why I like The Children's Place so much, because I know the the item will stand-up to the wear and tear of my kids and I will still be able to sell it after. Love it!
Their prices are really reasonable, especially if you get the clothes on sale, which I do 95% of the time. Usually, I'll shop the previous season to get the best price and then put it away for the next year.
Happy shopping!!

Kid Steals!! The Stealing Continues!!
When I first had my daughter almost 4 years ago, I found babysteals.com shortly after. Then, they opened another site called kidsteals.com for the cool products that toddlers to bigger kids would like. I have been a faithful customer to both sites over the last 3, nearly 4, years! No, you are not stealing anything, but you may think you are because the prices are so fabulous!!! This is a great way to get awesome products at great prices!
Kid Steals is just like it's sister site. They post 2 daily deals...one at 9am and one at 9pm MDT (8am and 8pm for me here in B.C.). You've got to get on right away and make your purchase as quickly as possible, otherwise someone else can put it in their cart and checkout before you and it will disappear from your cart!! Poof! If you follow them on Facebook, you will know how angry this can make some moms, lol!
Some of the things I've purchased from kidsteals.com are:
-DC Shoes in bigger sizes
-DC shorts
-Ergo carrier for my daughter to carry her dolls (very cool!!)
-Cool hats (Born to Love, DC, etc.)
-Kidz Banz hats and sunglasses
I've never had a problem with anything I've ordered. Everything arrives in perfect condition and shipping isn't horrendous either (keep in mind it's coming from the U.S.). Rarely have I had to pay any duty. I must also mention that they have "archives" which, if you're lucky, you may find something that you missed in there!! They also have "Surprise Steals" once in a while, too! So, make sure you head over there and check them out!! I bet you will be hooked!!

Baby Half Off!!
I have to tell you that I have purchased many, many of my favourite items from Baby Half Off! One of the items that I continue to purchase (mainly because I'm in love with the cool designs!), is Envirosax! Since the first time I bought them, I have always loved seeing the new Envirosax bags come up on babyhalfoff.com. I give them as gifts to friends, wrap gifts in the bags, and use them for everything! My kids have their own Sesame Street Envirosax that they take to daycare. Love, love, love these!!!
They post a deal a day, which is limited quantities, so you'd better get on there early and grab what you want! Once it's gone, it's gone!
Okay, so I talked too much about the bags and now it's time to gush about their website. I feel like I've gotten to know the girls that run it, so that's pretty cool. Their shipping is always reasonable and super fast! I have never had a problem ordering or anything...always smooth transactions!
One of the things that I like about them is that they have products that I wouldn't necessarily ever know about and unique brands. It allows you to find some really cool stuff!! Today they have Snack Taxi Reusable Snack Bags at 50% off, which I have ordered in the past and they go to daycare with my kids everyday! Go to their website and grab some of the bags!!
Go babyhalfoff.com!! Keep up the great deals!!

Baby Steals!! If you dare...
Over the years, I have come across many websites for great deals. I was first introduced to Babysteals.com over 3 years ago and have purchased many, many items from them. Beware....once you go there, you will become almost obsessed with making sure you get there every day when they post a steal, because if you don't, you may lose out on something really great! Some things sell out VERY quickly!! They post 2 "Steals" each day and it's usually such a great product at a great price, that you simply cannot pass it up. Well, okay, that's my reasoning anyways.
Let me list some of the things I've purchased there....
-Ergo Baby Carrier
-Stride Rite shoes
-Robeez shoes
-Baby Legs
-DC Toddler Shoes
-DC Board Shorts
-BabyBanz Sunglasses and Hats
-Halo outfits
-Smart Mom Teething Bling
There are sooo many more, but this post would get way too long. Anyhow, this gives you an example of some of the great brands that they have on there. There was a time when I'd have at least one package a week coming in from them. Shhhhh...don't tell my husband!!
Babysteals.com is based out of Salt Lake City, UT, but the shipping (for the most part) is pretty fair. You can see what the charges will be before you checkout. I find that even with the shipping, it's still cheaper than if you were to purchase the same product in Canada. I have had to pay duty on some items (shoes, mostly), but that's not all the time.
Head over to there website and become addicted!! Babysteals.com

Oliver's Labels...The Best of the Best!!
I've got 2 kids in daycare. They go to the same daycare, but since they are in different age groups, they are split up. This just means that I've got 2 sets of kids stuff going in 2 different directions and if I did not label them, I doubt I would get any of their items sent home. I've tried a few different brands of labels for kids, but I have been using Oliver's Labels for 3 years now and I can honestly say that NOTHING compares to them!!
Let me give you an example of how good they are. My daughter is now 3.5 years old. When she started going to daycare nearly 3 years ago, I had to label her bed sheet that I sent to daycare. Well, I have been washing this sheet at least every week and I've got the Stick-eez™ Clothing Labels on it and it's still stuck on the tag and going strong!! I've always got other moms and even the daycare girls asking me about these labels. The Mini Labels are super awesome, too. I use these on all my kids cups, forks, spoons, lunch kits, etc. They are dishwasher safe and again, I have had them on my daughter's cup from daycare for 3 years now and it's still stuck on the cup like the first day I put it on! No fading, either. This cup has endured many, many washes in the dishwasher!
There are so many cute designs. I always have a hard time choosing which ones for each of my kids. Give them a try and I know you will love them like I do! My favourites are the Stick-eez™ Clothing Labels, mostly because I don't have to iron them on, but seriously, they are awesome and the Shoe Labels, because you can peel the label off and if you sell your kid's stuff no one would ever know it was there!
