Free Nursing Covers and/or Baby Slings at FreeSlings.com
ReplyDeleteThey regularly cost $48 bucks (are currently on sale for $39) but if you enter a code you get it for free!! (almost)
http://www.freeslings.com
The code takes off the full price of the sling, but not the shipping ($9) or tax ($3)
So you end up paying just $12 instead of $60something :)
That’s a good deal in my book!!
Grab one for yourself or a new mom / mom-to-be that you may know.
