Winner will be selected by a random drawing and announced on Friday November 11th!  Deadline to enter is 11:59pm EST 11/8/16.  Open to U.S. Residents Only.

I received my sample box this week from Sam’s Club and was quite happy about it.  To be honest, I had forgotten all about it and then poof it was in my mailbox.  So the wait time on the box is a little long and I wish I could give you an estimated time but I can’t.

So how can you get one?  It’s easy and no membership is required to get the sample box.  All you have to do is click here and you will be directed to Sam’s Club Baby Sample Box sign up page.  It’s a two-step process where you will fill out your information first then click continue and then you will select either infant, toddler, preschooler, or elementary and click submit.  Boom!  Done!  Now you just have to wait.

Now, my favorite thing to share with you….what did I get in my box???  Well, it’s a small package so not a lot was in it but it was exactly what I needed.  Also, please keep in mind that you may get different samples in your box.  So here goes:

• 1 – 8 wipes Huggies Natural Care Wipes
• 1 – Member’s Mark size 3 diaper
• 1 – First 100 Words Board Book

There was also a flyer in the box stating if you join Sam’s Club for as little as $45 you will receive a $20 gift card and enjoy services like free shipping, curbside Club pickup and incredible value on name-brand products.

So there you have it….another freebie!  Hope this helps you decide whether you want to sign up for the free box but who doesn’t love free stuff?!?!

First Time Mom would like to sincerely thank everyone for participating in our Giveaway Contest.  Our random drawing winner is Amanda.  Congratulations, you have won the Babies R Us Gift Card.  Please contact us for your prize!

Winner will be announced on Friday September 9th!  Deadline to enter is 11:59pm EST 9/8/16.  Open to U.S. Residents Only.

If you’re like me then you love getting freebies!  I just went through the process with Amazon to get their Welcome Box from my baby registry.  As with most freebies you have to do something to get it.  So, I’m going to go over what you have to do and what I received in my Welcome Box.

First of all, you will need an active Amazon Prime account in order to be eligible for the Welcome Box.  The Baby Registry owner will be the only one available to get the Welcome Box but they can be a Prime Member or receiving Prime Benefits as part of an Amazon Household.  If you are not part of either, it’s ok.  You can sign up for a 30 day free trial of Prime.  After that it’s $99 a year.

There are some Prime benefits that I think you should know about.  Prime members get 20% off diaper subscriptions through Amazon Family which is free for all Prime members.  When you sign up, you create a child profile to begin with Amazon Family.  Another thing being a Prime member is you get a 15% off Baby Registry completion discount instead of 10%.  You also get FREE two day shipping on Prime items.  Members can create an Amazon Household and share certain Prime benefits including:  Free Prime shipping, Prime Video Streaming, Amazon Family Discounts, Prime Photos (unlimited storage space for photos), and more.

If you would like to sign up for Amazon Prime, you can click the picture below.

Disclosure:  I may get a small commission if you sign up using this link.

Now that you have an Amazon Prime account, let’s go over Amazon’s Baby Registry and how you can receive your Welcome Box.  Amazon’s Baby Registry benefits are:

Universal Registry – Easily add items from any site for one easy to manage registry.

Mobile Registry – Update anytime and from anywhere.

Large Selection – Over 270,000 baby items.

90-Day Returns – You have 90 days to return most items purchased from your registry.

Completion Discount – 10% off across Amazon.com.  Upgraded to 15% off for Prime members.

Free Shipping – Free shipping on orders over $49.  Free two-day shipping for Prime members.

The next step would be creating your Baby Registry.  After you have created your registry, you will need to use Jumpstart to qualify for the Welcome Box.  Keep in mind within any category you can select “Mark as complete” to indicate you have no need for that category in your baby registry.  Trust me, using Jumpstart is kind of time consuming but so is doing a registry all in itself which is why the “mark as complete” option is there.  Once you have completed Jumpstart, there has to be a purchase made of at least $10 (does not include tax or shipping costs) from the registry.  Keep in mind Gift Cards do not qualify as a purchase.  When your order has shipped the requirements have been met and you can now claim your Welcome Box.

Now, to claim your Welcome Box you have to sign into your Amazon Account and go to your Baby Registry.  Once there you will have to click the “Claim Now” button which should add it to your cart and then you check out just like you were making a purchase except this time there is zero amount due.

Last but not least, what came in my Welcome Box?  I’m always eager to find out what’s inside so let’s jump right to it.  This is what came in my box (please keep in mind, you may not get exactly what I received):

• 1 – 8.45 fl oz ZICO natural premium coconut water
• 1 – 3 fl oz Johnson’s bedtime baby lotion
• 1 – package of 2 Avent overnight breast pads
• 1 – 4 ounce Philips Avent Natural Bottle
• 1 – package of 2 Huggies Little Snugglers Diapers Size 1
• 1 – package of Huggies Natural Care wipes 32 count

• 1 – .03 fl oz Aquaphor Healing Ointment Advanced Therapy
• 1 – $20 off Select Graco Items redeemable at Amazon.com

And there you have it….Amazon’s Free Welcome Box!

Have you been looking for a cake and haven’t decided where to get it?  It may benefit you if you check out Walmart’s Bakery.  I recently found out that Walmart will give you a FREE smash cake if you order a cake from them.  Make sure you tell them to put Happy 1st Birthday in order to get the smash cake FREE!

So call your local Walmart and see if they are participating in this SPECIAL!
