We recently welcomed lots of new moms into our community. Welcome to BabySteals! We are happy to have you here. If you’re new, there are a few things you should know about us. Here’s the crash course on our site.

10. We have crazy good deals on baby and maternity products.
Okay, you’ve probably heard that one. At BabySteals, we bring you first-quality, top-of-the-line brands for baby. Some may be products you’ve already been lusting after and others hidden gems you haven’t seen yet. One thing you can be sure of is that we do our research to bring you the best quality products, all at up to 80% off. Our site is a great place to get a deal on necessities for your little one, purchase baby shower gifts and stay in-the-know about products for baby.

9. You need to steal fast!
This is not your standard online shopping experience. Having something in your cart doesn’t mean it’s yours yet—it’s a race to see who can checkout fastest! Make sure you are logged into Google Checkout before steal time to ensure faster stealing. Need to steal on-the-go? Download our iPhone app or visit our mobile site. Check out more tips for faster stealing here.

8. We love to connect with you.
And we provide plenty of ways to connect. “Like” our Facebook page, follow us on Twitter @babysteals, participate in live chats, watch our YouTube channel, subscribe to our RSS feed and follow the blog. You can also sign up to get daily email alerts or share us with friends. Each 9am email even comes with a *hint* for the 9pm steal. Don’t always rely on the email getting there before the steal sells out though—the alert is sent right at 9am, but since all email servers process differently, the time it arrives in your inbox can vary. And when the deals are as great as ours, you won’t want to miss being on our site right at 9.

• Didn’t get your order right the first time? You have 15 minutes to cancel your order and re-order what you want.

We pack it up with care, seal with love and once you receive your shipping confirmation, it’s en route to you! Please note, the tracking number from USPS is not real-time tracking so sometimes it will show that it’s somewhere that it’s not, but rest assured, it is on its way to your doorstep.

This has many meanings to us. We send joy through the quality products we offer. We send joy with our speedy shipping. We send joy with the fabulous customer service you’ll receive.

A *hint* for tomorrow’s steal

————

One steal, two steal, black steal, blue steal,
pink steal, blue steal, all a real deal.

Some are black and some are blue.
Some are pink and all are new.

They are rad and make you glad
They are even rad for dad.

On the back or on the side.
On the front and let them ride.

Wear there and here and here and there.
You’ll want these things for everywhere!

Comfortable for mom and dad. Cozy for little lass or lad.
Oh me! Oh my!
Oh me! Oh my!
This is a steal you need to buy.

Styles for daughters or for sons.
Oh so safe for little ones.

Some buy one and some have four.
If you don’t buy, you’ll beg for more.

What are these things?
I cannot say.
But they have come a long, long way.

You’ve see them come.
You’ve see them go.
You must steal fast.
You can’t be slow.

This is a steal unlike any other.
You’ll find out why
since you’re the mother.

BabySteals designer Emily M., the original Emily who makes our websites so cute, brought her little precious gem, *Ruby*, to meet the Steal Network staff. So what did we do? Threw her a surprise baby shower of course!

As a group of ladies that work for BabySteals, KidSteals and ScrapbookSteals, naturally we had tons of ideas for the baby shower. We all put a little love and inspiration into the preparations to truly make it a delightful affair for the newest baby in the Steal Network family. Want to see what a baby shower BabySteals style looks like?

We decorated the room with Babylicious pennants we have featured on BabySteals in the past and pink and ruby red tissue paper flowers hung from the ceiling. The look reminds me of the garden decor at the Bellagio. The paper flowers are easy to make but add a whimsical effect to any room (even the Steal Network’s conference room). To add a personal touch, we put removable vinyl letters to welcome Ruby in style.

Every baby shower needs cute refreshments! We ordered these cherry cupcakes from a local bakery and had our ScrapbookSteals queen, Kristy Lee, make these adorable cupcake toppers. Being as creative as she is, every topper is a little different and unique, including the four in the center that spell out “Ruby” in glitter letters. I mean seriously, how cute is that?! These could easily be customized for any shower theme or colors. Check here on the ScrapbookSteals blog for a how to.

For one of our fun baby shower games we played the BabySteals.com word search designed by the fabulous Emily M. herself! Featuring words like “cloth diapers,” “ergo baby,” “aden and anais” and “speedy delivery” you can download, print and play this at your baby shower too! Give everyone a time limit (after all it even took Mr. BabySteals and his daughter 45 minutes to find all the words) and whoever has the most words wins!

Last but not least, Kristy Lee astounded us again with these cute favors for Ruby’s guests to take home. Filled with colorful butter mints, these bags were adorned with cute toppers that are completely customizable are a easy to make no matter your level of crafty skill. Check the ScrapbookSteals blog for how to instructions.

All in all the shower was great and the staff was excited to welcome little Ruby into the world. Congrats to Emily M. on a beautiful baby girl from the whole Steal Network crew! For more photos from the shower visit our Facebook page.
