Just found your channel after googling how nice these baby boxes are, and omg, you are literally so fun! I love your energy, it definitely uplifted me after hours of scrolling through baby products online. You have such a great spirit! Thank you for making this video and I hope you and your family are doing well ❤❤
I think I like this year's Amazon free baby registry box the best. They had a muslin swaddle, Avent bottle, and full sized wipes! Plus of course coupons and smaller sampled products. Definitely worth it! You do have to have a prime membership and someone has to spend at least 10$ off your registery to be able to get it, so it's not totally free. But then the target and Walmart ones are totally free and worth it as well. It's always nice to get free samples!
Oh agree! I got all of those too! Here is the Amazon one I got: th-cam.com/video/zbf21dwz-JE/w-d-xo.html - seems similar to what you mentioned! I heard you can actually get a SECOND one like 9-10 months after your first one. Have you tried that? I'm not "up" for mine yet...
Just got mine today and pretty disappointed.. paid $12.95 for the shipping like others have said and only receive two pacifiers, a few samples old wipes and one sample of Huggies diapers, a boob mask, three minis of lotions, vit D drops, and desitin, and tons of coupons. Was super hoping for the swaddle or a onesie!!
I received my baby box a week ago and also was very disappointed and regretted paying the shipping fee of $12.95. The amazon box was way better in my opinion.
Sorry to hear you didn't get some of the same items I did! seems like you may have gotten a few replacements or different items - but I do think the onesie/swaddle are nice!!! Did you try any of the other free baby boxes?
The #1 reason (for me) that Coterie would be the diaper of choice isn’t because they are “fancy” but because they’re sustainably sourced… so better for the environment than the more common and cheaper brands. 😊
Thank you for sharing this! I genuinely didn't know when I unboxed them. Definitely makes more sense why so many people love this brand. Do you use them for your little one? Or did you use them in the past?
@@ChristineBentonFitness I’m due in August with my first so I bought some to try them out. I’m planning to cloth diaper eventually once I get into the swing of things but I’ll still want a good sustainably sourced disposable for travel and when I drop him off at the in-laws, etc. I’ve read great things, so I’m hopeful! Of all my research, Coterie seems to be the most highly regarded.
Hi Christine, thank you for your video! I just ordered mine. I spent $10 on babylist "listed" or sponsored products then had to pay the $12.95 for shipping, then like $1 something for tax!! I just saw someone else's comment saying they didn't get the full size products but they got a ton of samples. I am keeping my fingers crossed it was a fluke for them and I get a box similar to yours! You made me laugh with some of the things you said, including your thoughts on the product with the Frida baby gas eliminator, LOL! I will be a first time mom so I liked your thoughts regarding your rating of the box compared to the others. I actually have received a few free welcome boxes so far, I was pretty impressed with the Walmart one which didn't involve any spending at all! Thanks again!
Haha! I'm glad this video at least made you smile and laugh!! Keep me posted what you receive! I do of course prefer the ones that are completely free, but thought this wasn't a bad box for the cost.
I have a video that shares how to get them all (including Walmart) if helpful: th-cam.com/video/ePSIVJZxiJM/w-d-xo.html - I walk through the Walmart one, but basically you just make a registry and it gets mailed to you!! Let me know if you have any issues.
Thanks for the unboxing! I was debating on getting the box or not but I think I will get it. Going to be a first time mom so all of this stuff is intriguing to me lol
Aw I totally get it! When I was pregnant with my first I literally wanted ALL the boxes and goodies too! Nice to try new things out and see what works for you. When are you due?
I got this box last year for 5.99 + a $10 purchase. I wish mine came with coterie diapers & the swaddle bc we LOVE them BUT I feel like the box was nicer when I received it.
Yeah they definitely have changed out some items over the past few years, as well as the "rules" to get them! Hoping if they increase the cost that just means the products you receive are better!! I did think the Coterie diapers were a nice add.
Looked up the Baby Box just now bc Ive been getting any free box I can! And im a little disappointed bc it sounds like for everyone the box was $10-13. But now its telling me to make a $20 purchase and then pay shipping (which is $8 for me, standard). So idk if i can justify this box for nearly $30 when all the other boxes have been completely FREE or at least $10 purchase/pay for box out right. :/ but i do love the coupons, there’s some i would def use. Idk im going to sit on it for a couple days. Still have 109 days left till baby is here!
They seem to change their metrics every once and a while. What you're describing sounds very similar to what it was back in 2020 when I received my first Babylist Baby Box while pregnant with Baby #1. Usually the purchase can be made by anyone with access to your registry, so I tried to share this with those that may purchase something for my baby shower (similar to the $10 purchase with the Amazon one). Alternatively, you could always buy something on their site that you otherwise may have purchased for baby anyways at another retailer. The shipping cost by itself would be worth it to me, but totally up to you. Hope this gives you some ideas!!
I have been wanting to try Coterie diapers. I have tried dyper, eco originals, honest company etc. They are biodegradable. Like 90 perfect, so if that matters to u they could be worth the price, but I only try luxury diapers when I get 50 percent or more off.
@@ChristineBentonFitness They always pop up on my Facebook feed. If u go to the ecooriginals webpage they may still have the 1/2 off deal. I just purchased some about 2 weeks ago. If they don't have that See if they are still offering a trial pack. Just got one for my friend who is expecting. It's 20 bucks, but you get a full pack of diapers to try. Like 40 diapers. Depends on the size. It also comes with 3 full packs of wipes. The wipes are 100 percent biodegradable also. The wipes are 8 bucks a pack, so I think it's a good deal, and shipping is free. You can't get both deals at the same time; however, you can place 2 separate orders. To get 50 percent off u have to subscribe, but u pick how often u need diapers. I chose every 8 weeks to give myself a chance to cancel. Lol. Dyper always offer 50 percent off to new subs. Well pretty often. If u email them about it they will usually send u a code for 1/2 off. U also have to remember to unsubscribe after u receive the diapers. The thing about dyper u can sub and unsub as many times as you would like and everytime u subscribe u get the same deal. I stocked when I was pregnant with my 2 yr old. Lol. I know that was a lot, but you asked. Lol, so I'm sharing. I found Dyper also on my Facebook feed. They always have some kind of deal going on. U just have to check monthly or even weekly. Hope that was helpful.
You are absolutely fabulous. What stores do you usually do your grocery shopping at? Do you stock up on water? Can you possibly do some in store grocery shopping videos? It would be awesome if you could show how you do your full shopping
Interesting that yours was $9.99. For me, it's currently showing as $12.99! Thank you for posting this so we can see a sneak peek! Otherwise, the website gives no info whatsoever as to what is inside, and $13 is not nothing!
Wow that’s wild!! I just checked out the website and see the same thing. Looks like they are once again changing how to get the box. Last time I got one with our first baby you spent $$ on the site (similar to Amazon’s process). Now it looks like it’s both. Thanks for letting me know!! I wonder if it’ll change what’s in the box.
13 is nothing but, if your buying your own 10 dollar product you also pay for shipping on that product. 5.99 Shipping on a 10 dollar item, so in all you pay about 30 dollars. I got one 2 yrs ago and don't remember paying so much. For 30 I could have brought myself a couple or a few full size items for baby. I'm not impressed this year lol. Well after watching to the end I guess the 3 full size items made the box ok, but as u said u pay for it. Worth 10 not the 30.
I agree with that thought process! I know with my first baby back in 2020, you just had to have a purchase on your registry of $10 and you got the box. So if you had others using the registry it really could be free for you - which was nice for the quality of Babylist! Seems like they keep changing the requirements every few months though.
Aw sorry your box was different than mine. I hope you can at least utilize the Babylist registry, I found it very helpful to send to friends/family since it's all in one place.
I like the babylist registry because you can add from like any store but I could care less about paying shipping to get a box of samples and stuff lol. I got free boxes of pretty much the same kinds of things at my doctor's appointments where they were giving away the walmart ones.
Hmm you just ordered from Babylist last week? Are you in the US too? I assume they rotate items every quarter or so, but I just got the box last month! So I would assume you’d get similar products.
@@ChristineBentonFitness yes I'm in the US and ordered April 22nd, got delivered today. I neither got the swaddle nor the windy. Literally only diapers, wipes, the bottle and other little samples. And had to pay $10 shipping. It's obviously not your fault but I think a lot of people will be disappointed if they watch your video, order the box and pay for shipping and then only get cheap samples.
Maybe they swapped those two items with something else that they figured was of equal value. That’s my only guess! Or that different regions maybe get different products. I have heard of that before on the Amazon box for example. Have you tried the other free boxes? Those are great and luckily no shipping cost like this one was. Congrats on your baby by the way!
@@ChristineBentonFitness I just rewatched your video and it's literally the same box minus the Windy and Swaddle. The only two items who would make it worth it. My Burts Bees onesie even has the label sewn on crooked so won't use that one either. I messaged customer service so will see what they say.
That’s so interesting!! Definitely keep me posted what they say!! I would reach out too - worth a shot. I’d think they would give you something else in place of it instead of just removing it.
I just received my baby welcome box and also felt pretty ripped off. You definitely got the better deal. I’m pretty sure the Amazon box will give me pretty much the same things I got only I didn’t actually have to pay anything for them.
Aw I’m so sorry to hear this! It really sounds like the box got changed sometime late Q1 2022 after I got mine. Any good items in yours at least? I do like the Amazon one too! I much prefer totally free too!
Just filled out my registry and box definitely not free you have to spend the ten dollar minimum first which doesn’t include shipping for 7.99 or more for faster then it says your free box is ready where you then pay $10 for shipping so yeah box wasn’t free at all I ended up spending $40 hope my box was worth it.
That's correct. It was never free as I mentioned in the video, it was a shipping charge. Babylist has now updated their box requirements since I got mine to include a purchase as well. So should $10 purchase + shipping (around $10) = $20 total.
@@Piperamberandbailey9204 ahh I see! This was similar to how it was structured when I had my 2020 baby. Seems like they change their program details often. Hope you still enjoy your box and got an item you needed as well!!
@@ChristineBentonFitness still pretty excited about the box it’s fun getting them in the mail and in 2020 they did send a lot of breast milk bags and this baby I plan on only breastfeeding with all the formula shortage it’s terrifying.
I absolutely feel the same way! I feel like most boxes included the Lasinoh storage bags! I also have been formula feeding for several months now and the stock has gotten a LOT better!! So hopefully that gives you a little relief too.
Haha no judgment at ALL girl!! I did the same thing 🤣 did you get any boxes with your first two babies? The Amazon one is good too: th-cam.com/video/zbf21dwz-JE/w-d-xo.html
Hey it says I can get 3 things from NY of the stores but what are the cash limitations cause they have cribs and all that and i highly do those are for free lol please help me

@@ChristineBentonFitness I'm not up for mine either! And I had no idea! That's pretty cool 😎
From Amazon, I got 30 prenatal pills, a onesie, a swaddle, a single diaper, and sample wipes. No bottle.
Oh that's neat that you got 30 pre-natal pills! I haven't heard of this yet, just samples! Seems like they interchange and switch items often.
I'll keep you posted - will make a video when I can get it!
