Don't do it! The items are seriously not worth their price for shipping. Especially the slings!!! The udder covers are about as nice as taking a sheet, cutting it into a square and adding the neck piece. The slings are about like taking a sheet and cutting it into a sling with very weird sizing....and the car seat covers....well, they can void your car seat warranty.

Really? I got a cover from them when I was preg with DD. It wasn't the greatest, but it was pretty & it worked. Sometimes thin is a bonus in a hot climate. Back then shipping was only like $11...

If you do it, definitely pay with PayPal though as I heard they had some issues with customers' CC numbers getting stolen.

Well, they are cute, but they didn't seem worth it for the price of "free+shipping". That's why I bought the udder cover AND the sling, but both were "ehh". A receiving blanket or muslin blanket or tie dyed flat/flour sack towel could be just as pretty and actually double as a pretty blanket/diaper too!

The sling was really cute, but it really as one of the most uncomfortable things I have ever tried to use! i had it with a15# baby and it dug into my shoulder SOOO bad and made my arm go numb and tingly! With a tiny 15#!!!!

And I heard the same thing about stolen credit card numbers AFTER I used my debit card to buy one so I cancelled it the next day! Lol. Oddly, I found out about the card theft by posting in an online forum about the "awesome freebies" I was getting for "free+shipping!" lol.

Yep, it is definitely a deal with a grain of salt. I thought the package deals made it worth it for some, though. I wanted to try a sling carrier, and the baby legs and bracelet were cute enough that I thought all three were worth the $15 shipping. A friend of mine purchased the car cover bundle and I'm curious to see what that looks like. We both used paypal. I absolutely do not use credit cards for small scale websites.

I bought a car seat cover and it was nicer than I expected it to be. I cannot remember exactly how much it was, I want to say between $12-16. So far I have gotten lots of compliments on it. The minky inside lining is soft and it fits car seat perfectly. It velcros but has accent buttons that make it look nicer. I wish I had gotten the whole package for the car seat but at the time I ordered couldn't afford it.

I also have a nursing cover and would agree that works well but the car seat cover to me is a higher quality item, something I couldn't easily make myself.

Not to mention safety...

The car seat covers (canopies) that are free are not meant to be used while the car is in motion. They are merely a nicer version of a blanket draped over the car seat to keep the wind or sun off of a sleeping baby while being carried in the car seat.

As far as the slings go, I ordered one and have used it quite a bit with my youngest son from birth until just last week at Disney World where it saved me many times while waiting in lines and he napped in it too. Not top quality but fine for occasional use and we both liked the lighter weight breathable fabric in the hot June Florida sun.

I think the car seat cover a la mode isn't worth the money, but the bonus package they have looks nice. You definitely wouldn't want to replace or alter the car seat padding that came with your original seat but I don't see a problem with the rest of the package. If it were cooler here, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

I bought the sling package with the baby legs and the bracelet. The bracelet is too big for me (as all bangles are) but it made a nice gift for my MIL. The sling is comfortable and as the above poster said, is lightweight and breathable. The babylegs are cute and seem to be good quality. I haven't tried them out yet and probably won't until fall/winter. All in all, the package was easily worth the $13 I spent.
