Baby & Kids Flash Sale Membership Sites

What's So Great About Zulily?

The Pros and Cons of Zulily

• In my opinion, you'll see the largest variety of products and best vendors on the baby/kids membership site Zulily. This is a really fun members only baby site and it's one of the the only ones I make sure to check every day. However, There's almost always something you'll be interested in on Zulily. So you may NOT want to check it out if the temptation is too great for you! :)
• There is a fantastic variety of maternity and nursing apparel and gear on Zulily. I love that it's often not your average stuff either. For example, a lot of site will sell nursing attire, but Zulily has REALLY cute stuff that you would want to buy even if you didn't need it for it's functionality.
• Zulily often has very well-known high end gear, such as strollers from UppaBaby and Phil and Teds.
• Zulily has stand out customer service. They are really "knock-your-socks-off" in the customer service department and go above and beyond to resolve any legitimate issue you may have. I have been beyond impressed with Zulily in this area...and let's be honest...when was the last time you said that about customer service these days?
• You can occasionally find coupon codes for Zulily on RetailMeNot. However, they don't come up that often and you can only use a coupon code once. It never hurts to check to see if there are any you can use before ordering...just do it fast so you don't lose a great deal!
• Cons? Well, the only one I can think of is that you'll love it so much that you'll shop there...maybe a lot...it could become an addiction. Anyone else want to join "Zulily Anonymous" with me?

What's So Great About Totsy?

The Pros and Cons of Totsy...Flash Sale Membership Site for Kids

• Baby membership site, Totsy, has some great vendors that they work with to bring some sweet deals.
• Totsy offers a pretty wide range of products and have a lot of nicer items for sale. I really like a lot of the products that Totsy puts out.
• They also have a lot of great toys for kids and they often have some good eco-friendly options. Eco-friendly items tend to cost more, but on Totsy the prices are often very reasonable.
• Cons to shopping on Totsy? Their shipping can be a little on the slow side, but it depends a lot on the vendor they are working with. Hey, there's got to be some downside to getting a steal, right?

What's So Great About The Mini Social?

If Specialty Uber High End Kids Clothes is Your Achilles Heel, The Mini Social is Your Go-To Site!

• The Mini Social is a flash sale site exclusive to parenting products with items anywhere up to 70% off. Most sales last 2-3 days and .
• It's very specialized in that The Mini Social is ultra hip and modern. You'll find more of a focus on trendy items as well as a good variety of organic options, especially in their clothing lineup.
• The Mini Social is very strong on having great clothing and shoes for babies and kids. If you want your baby to follow in your fashionista footsteps, The Mini Social. is a great baby membership site for you.
• I rarely see items see out on The Mini Social. It's not quite as competitive as other sites, which takes a little bit of pressure off of you to buy quickly. You can more often wait a day before deciding to make a purchase on The Mini Social. But if you miss something, it's not my fault!
• Cons? The only one I've found is that even at 70% off an item can be on the higher end, especially when you add in shipping. Some sales offer a fantastic value, others just marginal.

What's So Great About Gilt?

Gilt has a wide variety of offerings for kids as well as the whole family.

• Gilt has A LOT of sales going on at once, which makes it a very interesting membership site to check with regularly. Their kids/baby section often has upwards of 15-30 different brands on at a time and their women's, men's and home sections often have more. So, this is definitely a site worth checking regularly.
• Gilt has a very luxurious feel, but usually does have pretty decent prices on brand names.
• Gilt has BONUS STUFF! You'll also find a special travel section on Gilt. Plus, they have a new fine dining segment called, "Taste" where you'll find specialty food products and wine. Gilt also has a "city" section with special deals in the biggest major cities, similar to what you'd find on a site like Plum Deals or Groupon.
• You'll find a wide variety of great things on Gilt, from modern to classic, practical to eclectic. You'll find clothing, strollers, cribs, carseats, blankets, toys, nursing and maternity (really cute, I might add),
• One really cool thing about Gilt is that you can filter sales by brand, category or sizes. When they have really huge blowout sales, this can help you hone in on what you're looking for and increase your chances of snagging it before it sells out.

• Beyond The Rack specializes in designer clothing and shoes. They always have a variety of kids items, but their section for kids and babies is smaller than their sections for adults. However, Beyond The Rack's kids section is still worth checking out.

What's So Great About One Kings Lane?

This Site Is Exclusively Devoted To Home Furnishings

• You will only find things related to home furnishing and decoration on One King's Lane. Therefore, you won't always find stuff for kids, however, you often WILL find great kids bedroom and playroom furniture, bedding and decor. And it's always REALLY cute.
• One King's Lane has to be one of the most beautiful membership sites out there. It's clean looking and feels very "specialty".
• If you order something off of One King's Lane, you will truly feel like a king when you receive your package in the mail. One King's Lane puts a lot of thought and detail into every aspect of your purchase.
• One King's Lane has some of the absolute best stuff for sale out there. You'll see a wide variety. Some of the products are so far out of any normal person's price range that you'll wonder who actually shops there while other sales are perfectly reasonable. I've scored some great Christmas and birthday presents on this site a few times now....stuff that says, "Awww, you shouldn't have," to which I think in my head, "Well...really I didn't!" Shhh...don't tell!

What's So Great About Fab?

Fab is Unique in that it specializes in ultra modern wares.

• Fab is probably the most modern membership site you'll see. Everything is unique, modern and "wow-worthy" if you like that kind of thing.
• One really cool thing about Fab is that you get credit just for referring your friends. All they have to do is signup and if you get 10 friends to sign up, you get $30 credit on Fab and if you get more friends to sign up you get even more. Also, Fab will sometimes offer extra discounts or bonus incentives for referring people.
• Sometimes the deals on Fab aren't as steep as on some of the other flash sale membership sites. On the other hand, you really don't find the same deals that you find on Fab on any other sites.
