like i said before i love facebook for great opportunities to do different things. one night i was sitting up doing nothing much at all and decided to play in a flash giveaway.. well i normally never win but on this particular night i scored a $15 gift card of sorts to an online store called Baby PipSqueak. yep this is where it all began!
i notified the company and the next thing i know, i was involved in the most awesome customer service experience ever.. from the start i was really liking this site just from the emails back and forth between me and the owner. i went threw
her online store and was searching high and low and i came across these re-usable wipes/wash clothes. i opted for the double sided ones at an awesome price ($5.00 for 5 so only $1.00 each) than i selected one of her awesome reusable sandwich bags .. i posted my order and being a mom of all boys, selected the boys print on the wipes/wash clothes.. well i was kinda surprised when she asked what i wanted for the sandwich bag, i really didnt realize there was a choice.. so i selected boys again.. and she told me that she only had girls and one polka dot one well honestly im not very fussy so i told her the polka dot one would be fine even though her husband said it wasnt *manly* enough for a boy or if she wanted to i would wait for one of her more boy ones (one she would have to make) but it was totally up to her, whatever was easier for her. but how sweet of her to ask! she also asked since i had a credit left if i would like her to toss in another set of the wipes.. wow!
well today they came in the mail and all i can say is simply AWESOME! if anything would honestly make me consider going to the more *greener* side of parenting it was her stuff.. and this is the time i wish you could rub your computer and feel the quality of her work, the softness of the wipes but not so soft your fingers gonna poke threw it but yet strong and not itchy scratchy your kiddo is gonna scream threw the entire diaper changing experience kinda deal. which honestly before i received these i was kinda expecting.. i mean how can a wipe that is reusable be both soft yet strong and really make you want to use them? but yep these are just simply perfect and the boy design well who wouldnt be happy to use them? they are too cute! and lets face it who dont love cute?? but cute and functional.. can you honestly tell im in love with her wipes *hahaha*
im also a very logical person when it comes to money and to think the amount i have put out in disposable wipes is kinda making me kick myself in the rear right now.. considering one 3 pack of pampers runs me roughly $10.00 and i go threw these every 2 weeks .. well now ive figured thats (and heres the kicker) $520 in total on wipes in the last 2 years alone .. kinda makes you want to faint dont it? it does me. specially when you do the amount of laundry that i do per week and to think i can just use the reusable ones and toss them in the wash and walla all clean again and ready to go!
now for the super cute sandwich bag.. again im in LOVE *lol* first of all its owls and perfect for my boys! and it has a velcro flap on it to seal and reseal.. its easily cleaned and yes even with this it was skeptical for me because well I always imagine the worst.. i mean i just saw shoving my kids sandwich in something made of a felt like material and him pulling threads off of it (hey im honest this is what i thought) but this is perfectly lined on the inside with a material that reminds me much of the inside lining of my sons lunch box but yet not so plastic'y feeling. the sewing on it is awesome and there are no raw edges to be found now from a woman who cant sew a straight line and has this special ability to sew the top thread to the bobbin thread without hitting the material in the middle, well its just amazing and awesomely done! i wish i had her sewing abilities thats for sure. but lucky for me there are ladies out there like baby pipsqueak that do these things so i can purchase them at great deals cost wise. the sandwich bag cost wise is only a low $8.00 for something you can use over and over again.. unlike the plastic bags you buy for $3 or $4 a box to have to keep replacing them. for the cost it would be to buy your youngin a different sandwich bag each day of the week, you could have different designs for every day and it would still be an awesome bargain in the long run.
now i never told baby pipsqueak i was going to do this review.. and i wasnt paid and didnt receive anything for free to do it nor would i expect that, its just a flash giveaway win i was lucky enough to get and in the end, i love to talk about products i really like that i receive! So that is why i decided to do this.. check out her website you wont be sorry or even go check her out on
facebook at baby pipsqueak tell her i sent you or dont (honestly it dont matter) but you wont be sorry when it comes to her products.. shes really made this mama do some thinking today on where im dumping money when i could have totally awesome things that will not only save me money, but be stylish and cute and are quality made products!
