TOYS R US and BABIES R US to exchange baby bottles

[TinamarieMizzer]

** BORROWED**



Babies 'R' Us and Toys 'R' Us are offering to exchange any baby bottles that have ever been offered at their stores for new BPA-free bottles. These are handled as an even exchange. No receipts necessary. In a few cases, you will need to pay the price difference (some manufacturers are charging more for the BPA-free bottles), but most are an even exchange. We exchanged 15 Dr. Brown's bottles and didn't pay a cent! We even got extras because Dr. Brown's is doing a special buy 3 get 1 free. They are not advertising this (probably because it's costing them a fortune), and when we called the store, they tried to discourage us, but it worked with no problems.

I heard about this awhile ago, and called two of the stores in the area and they told me that they wouldn't do this. I have heard of people in other areas that have been able to do this at their BRU store. Wish I could get in on this, since I have a ton of Dr. Brown's bottles.

hmmm...i have a ton of Avent bottles and no more babies. I wonder if someone could exchange them for new ones? What's BPA? Did I poison my kids already?
