BRU Trade In Event! - Cloth Diapers & Parenting Community

heavenlyblessedmom · 01-17-2013, 08:05 PM

The Babies R Us trade in event starts tomorrow! Are you turning in some old baby gear for 25% off something new for your May baby?

I have an infant carseat that I got as a baby shower gift with my oldest (and now it's been through 4 kids!), it expired this past fall. I plan on trading it in and getting the Graco My Size 70 for my May baby =)

Thanks, I didn't think this came around until summer. My daughter's infant seat expired and has been sitting in my basement for just this event!

I just traded in an old car seat and stroller and bought the Graco Click Connect 40 in Mena print carseat and matching stroller! So pretty!

Glad to hear about this! Thanks for telling us, ladies. We have an old old Britax Marathon and would like a new one for my Mom's car.

We turned in our Pack N Play (used on our room for 4 months with DD, 8 months for DS and been all over the southeast for the last two years). We ended up with a new Pack N Play and two itty bitty sleepers for $67, woot woot!

I was thinking of trading in our Maxi Cosi Priori for a new Diono XT, but it looks like the seat is already around 25% off on Amazon, with free shipping. Is it worth it to do BRU, or should I not bother?

I bet it will be more at BRU, but why not check the price? You can trade in for other items too, if the old seat is no longer good.

I also just wanted to throw it out there that typically Britax doesnt participate, but I called BRU to double check and this year they are, but not the full 25%. Britax is offering 15% off their products.

All trade in coupons are in-store only even if you order online and have it shipped there. I was going to trade in for my Britax Frontier 85 SICT, but was told it was online only

Looks like the RXT is online-only anyway, anyone know whether it's a 1:1 trade or can I trade (for example) a carseat toward a crib?

From what I was told when I called for details, I was told you could trade in any old equipment for anything else you wanted as long it was a participating brand. Basically they told me there is a log they have to fill out of what you bring in and you then get issued an instore coupon to use on other gear, so for example you can trade a car seat in for a stroller, crib, newer carseat, anything you want.
