online consignment ~ ThredUp

Online consignment might be the solution you are looking for to make things simpler!  Motherhood is a time when seasons change quickly, and clothing needs also change quickly!  Your body is constantly changing with a pregnancy and the season of motherhood following, and your kids are growing quickly, outgrowing clothes faster than you can move them to and from their closets!  Special occasions may require an outfit that you may only need once, and finding the perfect outfit can be an endless pursuit!  …And then there was ThredUP!!

 

I want to introduce this company to you because I think it can be a valuable resource for many moms!  I know too well the struggle of getting out to go to the store with my kids at a certain age.  Then, finding what you are looking for while you are out with the kids can be a challenge!  ThredUP is online consignment, and it is the perfect solution for busy moms (and aren’t we all busy?!)  These days are precious and they go by so quickly!  Shop online with ThredUP, and you may find that perfect outfit barely used (because kids outgrow their clothes TOO fast) at a really great price!!  They carry brand names like Ralph Lauren and Gymboree.  Try it for several items and receive free shipping for purchases over $70.  You can also Clean out your Closet with thredUP.

Birthday Books

Something I have done for our kids since they were born is to make them birthday books after each birthday, to look back over the past year and record milestones, favorites, and special events.  Because we don’t regularly print pictures, unless we are using them in a frame or for a special project, all these pictures that we take are not going anywhere other than on a screen!  I make these books so we can look back and see how much he grew in the past year, what he was interested in, and even special stories that impact his life.  Because the years pass by so quickly, I don’t want us to miss it.  They are also my way of “holding on” to special artwork and writings.  I take a picture of the artwork and include it either as a background  or a photo.  Then, for most I discreetly discard the original.  The artwork goes along great with the story I am trying to tell of their lives!

MyPublisher, Inc.

So I make these books, and my go to software and development company has always been MyPublisher.  I have made over 10 books using their program, and have been very pleased with the quality of the books and the ability to customize completely.  They all match and their name and birthday date are on the books’ spines.  You can create custom, or use the quicker method which automatically arranges the photos for you.  I love these birthday books!  Currently, you can receive up to 65% off!  See below!

 

FREE 8.5″ x 11.25″ photo book with free cover option! ($39.99 value) Ends 3/24.

50% off quality hardcover photo books from MyPublisher!

Spring Sale! Up to 65% off photo books through 3/31.

Maternity Clothes on the Cheap

Maternity clothes… One of the things that drives me crazy about being pregnant is having to buy an entire new wardrobe for only a few months!  Each season and stage of pregnancy requires different clothes.  Not to mention, you may not feel like, or have the energy to, shop around to find the best fitting clothes at the best price.  So, here are some easy solutions to finding maternity clothes on the cheap:

  • Shop online.  Period.  From your phone, computer, or tablet- it’s just easier and more comfortable than finding a store and finding the time to go shop.  Take measurements if at all possible to ensure a good fit; however, know that most retailers that have both online and brick and mortar stores will allow you to return in the store.
  • Try consignment!  You are not looking for investment pieces, just clothes to wear out for this season you are in.  So, brand new may not matter to you.  I have heard great things about ThredUP, an online consignment store with high quality brands.
  • Shop Motherhood Maternity online!  They have great sales, currently up to 50% off!    Save up to 50% off select sale styles at Motherhood Maternity. Valid until 3/16. Shop Now
  • For baby showers, as the guest of honor you may want something a little nicer.  A Pea in the Pod has some great styles, also with great sales.  Save up to 50% off select sale styles at A Pea in the Pod. Valid until 3/16. Shop Now
  • Don’t limit your wardrobe search to “maternity clothes.” Your closet is a great place to look. With long and flowing tunics in style, you are sure to find something that works!

Finding clothes that fit during your pregnancy doesn’t have to be difficult or painful.  Hopefully you have found some easy solutions that help you enjoy and celebrate your pregnancy!  At Mom’s Priority, we are always trying to help moms make the most of their resources and time, like the Proverbs 31 Woman.  For more saving money and time ideas, check out Mom’s Priority: Money Matters.

Moms, Save 20% on Dog Food!

As moms, like the Proverbs 31 Woman, we always looking for ways to make our dollars go farther, in the easiest and most efficient way possible.  This sounds ridiculous, but recently I tried out Amazon.com for dog food for our yellow lab.  Ridiculous, because it seems strange having dog food delivered.  However, this big bag of dog food was delivered to my garage door for $10 less (20% less) than I usually pay at our local pet store !  30 pounds of Science Diet dog food delivered, and I didn’t even have to move it more than 10 feet!  I am clearly getting spoiled by free delivery, saving money, and almost on demand.  With Amazon Prime, our dog’s food was delivered within their 48 hour window.  Easy, efficient, and cost efficient as well!   You need to try it!   Try Amazon Prime 30-Day Free Trial

Another perk of buying dog food or other home supplies, toiletries, etc online is making a list, saving it, and accessing it to easily reorder (if you do not participate in Subscribe and Save).  Next time you order, you will know exactly what brand and size you purchased, so your sweet dog will be well taken care of!  For more time and money saving ideas like this, check out Mom’s Priority Money Matters.
