Store Basics:
Giggle Britches was started by LeAnn Kitchen because she
noticed a need for a "cloth diapering and natural parenting
store in the St. Louis Metro-East area."

She has a great Cloth 101 section that gives a quick rundown
of how she does her cloth diaper laundry and what you would
need to get started which can be handy when you are looking
at a shop and just getting started in the cloth diapering world.

Selection: The selection is small but
seems to be growing with more and
more quality products over time.
They do carry some of the major tried
and true brands such as bumGenius, Thirsties, Happy Heinys,
Fuzzi Bunz, Haute Pockets, Tiny Tush, etc. so it's definitely
worth checking here and comparing prices with other stores
before buying.I only give this category a three because
compared to larger stores this store is small in comparison.
But, I think you'll see in the next few categories that LeAnn
is in a leagueof her own in customer service.

Level of Service: LeAnn is friendly
and helpful. She's great about
keeping in touch with her customers
and has a great fan page for her store
on Facebook which you should join to hear about the latest
sales, discontinued products, or new items that will be added
to the store.

I also want to say that she has the FASTEST delivery of a store
I've ever experienced. My order was at my house within a 3
days of purchase. I was majorly impressed and it is one of the
many reasons I check her store often when hunting for diapers.
After all...when you're addicted don't you want to get your fix
fast? I know I do!

Package Deals: Giggle Britches has
some of the best small diaper packages
I've seen. If you know what you're
looking for in a diaper this is a great
place to buy a package to try different versions of one type.
For example...if you know you're a pocket diaper person then
you could try her One Size Pocket Sampler. She has them for
several different categories including nighttime diapering so
check those out for sure.

My favorite feature: Some of the
diapers come with a 15 day Risk Free
Trial. This gives you an opportunity to
buy 1 diaper (only 1), try it for 15 days,
and return it for a full refund. All you are out is the cost of
return shipping!!! (Don't forget to wash and dry it before you
return it!) I don't know about you, but that sounds like a great
deal to me.

Definitely check Giggle Britches out and see what they have to
offer. Quick shipping, packages, and Risk Free Trials? I think
you'll be impressed too!

I confess to total terror regarding buying cloth diapers -- while I logically realize that I'm spending much much more on disposables, the start-up is so costly. This is looks affordable and fun! <3
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing! I still haven't committed to trying to cloth diaper, but every time you post I'm a little more convinced, and I can't wait to try.
Ashley - If you will send me an email at fb4dumdums@gmail.com I would love to hear your concerns regarding cloth diapering. It would give Natalie and myself more ideas to help newbies get started and to help you over your trepidation through a series of posts on the blog.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you could even guest blog at some point about your fears in getting started, and how you feel once you try it. :)
I completely agree with the shop review for Giggle Britches. LeAnn should definitely pride herself in GREAT customer service. I've know LeAnn for many years, even before she started Giggle Britches, she has a great heart and truely does love helping mommas become comfortable with the overwhelming world of cloth diapering. I know this because she converted me to cloth.
