MSE Pregnancy Club 23

Our Moses basket has been set up for a few weeks but has been shut in the baby's room as I know one of my cats would quite happily sleep in it 24 hours a day if she could... The bouncer is still in the box, but I have had it out once to put it together and test it, so I know it's easy to put together! Other things, like the cot bed, are set up but we won't be using that for a while so I haven't even taken the wrapping off the mattress yet. The rest of the bits in the room need a bit of organising to be honest, think I might make that a job for tomorrow!

Emmylou, you sound well prepared!!! I am just trying to work out how much Johnsons fragrance free wipes (6 pack) costs at Tesco - can't find them online - and got loads of vouchers sent through by Tesco, £1 off for the 6-pack.

I'm not sure ginvzt I think the normal price is about £7.50-ish. Fiver at Boots at the moment

Just managed to find it on mysupermaket. I am rather disappointed with Tesco vouchers, as you can find all things cheaper elsewhere (Sainsbury's, Asda) without even using vouchers! For example, £3 off voucher for avent bottles, Tesco price £13.50, when Sainsbury's sell them for about £7.99! It is great mysupermaket to compare the prices between the shops!

Tesco baby club is a waste in my opinion. All I got was the vouchers for the wipes, nappy cream and something else can't remember what, they came in middle of December and expired 31st of December.

Good for a variety I suppose incase baby doesn't like Huggies Pure wipes but I got better deals elsewhere like you said. Boots are doing the 6 packs I think of Pampers wipes, both normal and sensitive, 2 for a tenner at the moment, so 12 packs and you'l get £1 on your advantage card. I've got a variety of all kinds of wipes, I didn't stick to one.

So, my plan tomorrow is go to Asda to pick up 2 more starter packs. (Does it still work that when the packs are on offer you still get £5 off? Was thinking of getting 2 packs with 1 voucher and paying £1-ish for both, so I could get 4 in total!) Then go back to car, cut out the coupons from the sleeve and go back for more... And also the wipes - could try and stop at Tesco's and get the Buy 1 Get 2 free deal, so 3 packs of wipes for £1.48 or so. Or is it possible to get a better deal? It probably sounds very greedy!

This is exactly what I did and yes the coupons do take £5 off each time. I bought 4 in total and only paid £2.
My aim is to get a few free wipes from asda as well as the buy 1 get 2 free from tesco/superdrug.

What I'm hoping someone could tell me is if the £2 off huggies also works on the asda newborn starter kit so that I can repeat the process quite a few times. I've only got one of the baby nature nappy thingies so need t see if I can print off another £4 off coupon.

I think its a brilliant idea getting OH to sign up to babyclubs as well. Why didn't I think of that? :T in fact, while I'm at it, i'll get my sister, all sister inlaws and all family to do this. Think i'm quids in loooool.:rotfl:

I noticed this too which was annoying as all mine seem to have expired and I haven't used them. Has anyone had any success with getting them to extend the deadline or re-credit it to your account?

On hotukdeals, some asda stores have the 12pk of pampers wipes for £5 but its store specific, so check you're asda just in case. http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/pampers-sensitive-baby-wipes-12-x-packs-56-672-wipes-5-asda-instore-1119914

Well, I didn't sign up any other family, but I did sign up for something using my maiden name...

Mine arrived just this week, and expire end of March. I guess they just have set expiry times, and if you subscribed at the wrong time, you get only few days to use them.

Right, sorted out my vouchers by the store to use them in, now just need to get to the stores!

dashiki, I remember you had another thread about the car seats. Did you get it yet? If not, I guess the Boots voucher is not person specific, so could probably share it... It is 20% off the car seats.

If I bring in any more wipes I think my OH will kill me :rotfl: we have about 45 packs and counting.

Not sure how they'd recredit your account if you hadn't spent the vouchers? You could give them a phone and see if they'l send out the recent ones if you didn't receive yours until late. I'm not that bothered, as the vouchers I got were all a bit crap.
