Amazon Mom

For any mom’s out there who haven’t heard about this fabulous Amazon.com program yet, here it is!
You need to just enroll in the program, and in exchange there are some fantastic perks.

:: Get free Amazon Prime (= free shipping!)

• Prime allows you to get free shipping on any order you place from Amazon directly or fulfilled from Amazon (not 3rd party sellers)- so if you want an item for $1.36 shipping is totally free!  You don’t have to hassle with finding items to hit $25.
• Your shipping is upgraded to 2 day service and if you happen to need an item overnighted, you just pay $3.99.

::You get special discounts and promotions that are emailed directly from Amazon.

:: You can continue to receive 30% off select diapers and wipes with subscribe and save. Subscribe and Save is Amazon’s automatic delivery system. How it works is you choose an item marked as Subscribe and Save, choose how often you want the item to arrive (1 every month, 2 months, and so on), and your subscription will be started. You can cancel a subscription at any point without further obligation (I start and stop subscriptions after every order, in order to get the extra 30% each time).

Here’s a baby wipes example:

• Register for Amazon Mom (this is totally free and there are no strings attached.) 
• Select the wipes and then click on Subscribe Now on the right side of the page- not add to cart! You will see your total drop by 30%.
• Once your wipes arrive you can either keep the service or you can just go into your account at Amazon and cancel.  You have no further obligations.  If you decide to keep the service, you are not guaranteed to get this price next time.

:: To make the deal even better, check out issues of Parenting (the Early Years), Parenting, American Baby or Baby Talk Magazine where Amazon has had coupons for an additional 20% in the past couple of issues. Enter these codes and you will receive a total of 50% off a pack of diapers or wipes!

::It is totally free to register.

::You get 3 months for free of the Prime service.  You need to buy things from the baby store on Amazon in order to extend your Prime membership.  Then Amazon will email you at the end of the 3 months letting you know if you purchased enough items to extend your subscription. For every $25 in baby items you purchase, your free Prime shipping will be extended another month.
