Babies R Us Canada Registry/ Shipping?

[Bluedaisy]

Happy Saturday ladies!


I was just wondering if anyone has used BabiesRUS, especially the website.  We don't have one here so if I do a registry for them EVERYTHING will be shipped and I'm also wondering what their shipping/ customer service is like in general.

Thanks in advance!

I did my registry online with them. It was really frustrating honestly, and it took me forever to figure out that some things wouldn't add to the registry for whatever reason. I do like their stuff though. No advice on the shipping, sorry.

I've never done a registry, but I do order from them once in awhile. We live an hour outside a city in a small town, and they will ship smaller items out here for free, but we've ordered a car seat last time around and a double stroller this time around and had to have it shipped to my brother in the city since they wouldn't ship large items to rural areas, so I guess it depends where you live and what their shipping policy is like out there.

That's good to know, I'm in northern Alberta so the closest store is Edmonton (five hours away). I don't know if I'll actually do a registry but was thinking that it might be worth coupons and if out of town family wanted to buy stuff.

I find the online registry so annoying. Half the stuff added just says its not available online and wont link to it so it makes it hard to edit the registry and make sure what I actually want is on the list. Adding item's had been a struggle as well. At one point I had something like 8 halo cribs and couldn't edit them.

Yikes! That sounds like a huge pain!

you could also do an amazon.ca registry! They have free shipping over 25$ and a bonus is that *usually* their prices are lower (not always but most of the time!)

I had the worst experience with Babies R Us in Canada and in the States. I personally wish there was another baby chain, other then Babies R Us.

Probably late but I live in a small town in AB. Haven't enjoyed babies r us and their shipping or their website. I use Amazon.ca mostly if I can and we have prime membership so typically 2 day free Shipping. Just ordered our next car seat. Same price as BRU but they were going to charge $30 shipping, Free with prime.

We found a crib we liked while we were in Edmonton but the shipping to order it from Babies R Us it was super expensive ($100 to ship a $200 crib) and we ended up finding a really similar one at Sears even cheaper.

Shipping to your location is brutal. Pm me if you ever need deals and shit on gear. BRU isn't nice to GP. Snugglebugz and Amazon and a few others will for free.
