Anyone have or seen deals on the Nautilus?

MsFacetious · Jun 8, 2008

So we went and checked out the Nautilus yesterday when we had some spare time. We loved it! I got some good pictures (yes I'm posting without them, the day went WAY downhill after that adventure.)

I have been instructed to "look for deals" on the seats. Now, I have explained that they ARE a deal. It's two for the price of one when compared to the Britax seats we are used to. lol

So, we will get them, at some point even at full price. As soon as the little car is fixed I will be getting them to try in that car, before I move the Regents at all. Not moving them unless I'm sure they are not staying the truck. However, I am thinking my kids may prefer the Nautilus the majority of the time. But that's another thread that will come later.

Has anyone seen *deals* on the Nautilus? Or is it just too new for that?

I wish. The best I have seen is $149.99. Some stores (some Wal-marts) are charging up to $160.

MsFacetious · Jun 8, 2008

It was $149 at BRU too. Hey I mean really that IS still a deal. When you consider that my girls have quite a bit of space left in it...(I'm thinking 3 inches, almost as much as in the Regent when the Regent is on a reclined vehicle seat) then it can be a booster (which my children maturity wise could use now). PLUS.... my family is so used to "only $300" for the price of a car seat. This time when I said "Only $300 for BOTH seats" they were shocked.

I just promised I'd watch for deals... so I'm watchin!

Meijer has the Nautilus on sale for 134.99 this week. But I don't think there are any Meijer stores in your area.

If you can find someone with BRU coupons...I gave all of mine to my friend. She was allowed to use a 15% off coupon, a $20 off coupon, and a $5 off coupon and only paid $88 for her Nautilus.

So see if you can find some BRU coupons. Good luck!

MsFacetious · Jun 8, 2008

Ohhhhh THAT is an idea. Now, where in the world do I FIND BRU coupons?

djma · Jun 8, 2008

Sometimes they have printable ones on their website. Check there.

Not that I'm saying you should be dishonest...but if you make a baby registry, you will probably start getting coupons from them again

Heather98012 · Jun 8, 2008

Fred Meyer is in the NW, but they are owned by Kroger. They had a $10 off coupon any seat over $50 or something...which of course meant the Nauti was $140.

Target.com had it on sale a while back, but we all know they sold out big time! Even if not on sale, you could use the AAA discount of 10% & get it for $135. This is assuming they ever get them back in stock!!

MsFacetious · Jun 8, 2008

Baby registry?! OMG do you know how many people would have a coronary if they saw a baby registry for me? lol

I just had a revelation... I just remembered that we GET a 10% discount when we buy two car seats there anyway! The "twin discount" even though my girls aren't twins. (Which really that's the way it should be, should apply anytime you buy 2.)

So, we are down to $260 for both seats. I found some 15% of coupons on ebay but they expire in a few days... not going to risk them not getting here in time.

I can't find any on BRU's website, but I will keep looking after we get back from the Dinosaur Park. If all else fails, the swingset can wait another year. I'm sure my brother and Dad would be more than happy to have my ex and boyfriend put it together instead! lol

I was able to price the GN at BRU for 131.32 total with the 15% off and the sales tax in that area. trying to get my frined to get it, if the last one is still there. With the coupon it might well be gone.

mytwobugs · Jun 8, 2008

If you want to order online from BRU soon there is a coupon good June 6th-19th, online code is #921792 for $20 off any carseat priced $99.99 or more. If you are planning on buying in the store maybe you can find someone with the coupon who isn't going to use it.

But they ARE twins, "irish twins"

oh and my TRU had the coupons in store so if the drive is not too far you could see if they still have them in store where they keep the weekly ads just as you walk in (I assume, as that is where I found them at my TRU) The Nauti is not too "exotic" so TRU carries them in store, you don't have to go to an actual BRU

HEVY · Jun 8, 2008

Doesn't BRU coupons have no limit? Like you can use one coupon for a number of the same item.

Was it on sale? Cause that would make the seat (depending on how it was done) a mimimum of 102.50 pre tax, which is still a good deal. I was reading my coupons and they seemed to have changed tho policy, they put specifically on the coupon on "any one item" and that it can not be used with any other offer. So the way your friend did it by using 3 coupons may go by individual manager policies or an employee being nice.

We got a Babies R' Us coupon in the mail last week. I can ask my neighbors to see if they have theirs because I am going to use mine to buy a MA so I can trash the Scenera. I will let you know if I find one.

MsFacetious · Jun 9, 2008

Shipping for 1 Nautlius is $12, so the $20 off would only be $8 off.

Bummer!

I will have to keep looking. I was just at BRU but didn't think to look at the coupons. I will look next time to see if they have the 15% one. THAT combined with the twin discount looks like our best bet. But we'd only get the 15% off of one seat if we wanted the twin discount. (Only one coupon per guest and only applies to one item.) Decisions decisions.

Mattkarn · Jun 9, 2008

The only problem with that is if your planning on buying online the 15% off coupon is not valid online. Or at least mine is for in stores only. If your going to buy in store then its not a problem.

Judi · Jun 9, 2008

Baby Depot has the twin discount. 20% off you second car seat. I sure like that $88 deal better though. I would buy one for that!

mytwobugs · Jun 9, 2008

My coupons for BRU were missing and I had given them up for gone, but I have found them! (in the recycling - thanks DH:doh

Anyway I am not going to need the carseat ones so if anyone wants them let me know and I can mail them.

Anyone have or seen deals on the Nautilus?
