Every single dollar counts when you have a baby, and Amazon Prime Day really stretches that nesting budget. But here’s a sweet little secret: Amazon doesn’t have a monopoly on fabulous discounts. There are plenty of alternative Prime Day sales you might be overlooking — which means you could be missing out on some wonderful, money-saving opportunities.
As an editor who’s spent 10 years scouring holiday sales, weekly deals, and seasonal promotions, I know exactly where to find the best bargains any time of year (even during what’s been deemed the sale of the year!). Some of this year’s best pregnancy and parenting deals are actually hiding out at the wonderful retailers below.
Whether you’re Amazon-averse or just trying to shop a little smarter for your bun in the oven, you’ll want to bookmark this page and pop back over the next two weeks to find the absolute best deals.
