I have a baby gift pack that can be made into a baby shower gift basket or just a mix of stuff for a new mom. I will add a few items before I sell, such as, 4-5 clothing items my newborn wore once and never fit into again. They are not stained. I have a couple Classic Pooh onesies I'm throwing in. I am asking $30 for the gift pack, with the clothes included and whatever else I find to throw in. All items come from a smoke-free, clean house. I don't like to buy junk and I don't expect anyone else to either. If you would like pictures of what is in the box, just ask.

I'm willing to trade too for items I need. I'm not sure exactly how this all works so any advice would be great!

These are the things I need:
-Huggies points
-Pampers gifts to grow points
-Lysol
-Dawn
-Gain laundry detergent
-Duncan Hines brownies
-Hellmanns Mayo
-Gerber Goodstart checks over $10
-Don't know if there are coupons for Parent's Choice Diapers (Walmart), but if there are I need them too.

I'll add onto the list as I figure it out, but kind of confused right now. Thanks for your patience everyone!

Thanks, Shawndi P.

Hi Shawndi welcome to the group. I am new here myself and everyone is really helpful and a pretty great group. There is a post in the FAQ that talks about wishlists and have lists and if I am doing it right it is here It has been awhile since I have been on message boards bu I know it is post 13. It tells you all about it and I am sure there is other information there. I spent a lot of time reading and rereading when I first got here and if you have a question there is always someone to help you. Also if you get a chance and there is a train going those are great and you end up with a nice selection of coupons. Again welcome to the group and happy trading.

What is the train thing? how do I get involved in that? Thanks so much! I can't wait to start saving...with two kids (3 and 2 months) it seems like we never have the money to do the fun stuff!

You need to keep an eye on the forum and when they post that they are taking riders for a new train go into that thread and sign up and you will be set!
