Hi All,
We have recently been fortunate enough to become parents to twins, who are currently in NICU and on a nice schedule of feeding times every 3 hours. We spend a good portion of our day in the NICU at the minute so there really is not a lot of time to keep the house in order or do big grocery shops or what have you, so we have been picking up bits and pieces as we go from Coles or Wollies on our way home as time permits.
With twins and breastfeeding, our shops also contain more adhoc ingredients (for us anyway) like oak flour, and flaxseed and brewers yeast…odd non perishable things
We have also recently been put onto Amazon Prime and out of interest i was checking some of the things we have picked up over the last few weeks and have seen that they are often cheaper there, (should have checked first…) although I find the search function a bit hit and miss.
However the benefit of having stuff next day, or on your doorstep when you get home from hospital really is great, so I am looking for input on must have items from Amazon that are quality & good value. Do you use Amazon on the regular as a supplement to your normal shop? Are there tips and trick for finding good deals or stocking up on bulk items?
Amazon can be a great source of bulk, non-perishable items when you find the (relatively frequent) discounts. Think bathroom and laundry.
I've had the odd food item delivered from there, but my focus is on these items that you can buy in bulk when on special and stow away to use over the next few months. These items also tend to be quite heavy/bulky, so having them dropped at your front door is a plus.
