BRU- VIB Program

I signed up for the BRU VIB Rewards yesterday and I have to say its a good deal..

Basically you buy a gift card that you can add money to as often as you'd like and they give you bak 10% of what you put on the card. The card can only be used to purchase diapers, formula, food, and wipes... If you need formula say today, you can add money to the card today and use it right away. The 10% money back will be on your card in 24 hours! Also there is no min or mac amount you need to have on the card.

Anyone else sign up for it?

I think prices for these items are much cheaper at Target...so even with 10% bonus it isn't that good of a good deal for me. But if you exclusively shop there, any $$ savings is good!

Prices for those things are MUCH cheaper at Target unless BRU are having a crazy sale and if you use coupons at Target it really brings the price down way below the 10% off.

Re: BRU- VIB Program

Really? We did a price comparison yesterday, and BRU was cheaper and their packages were larger than what Target had to offer....
We calculate how much each package costs per ounce... And BRU was definitely the least expensive for Enfamil Gentlease refill packs...

I agree, BRU is MUCH cheaper especially on things such as Formula and PLUM organics and if you use the coupons right diapers are also cheaper than Target. I comparison shop and especially now with the VIB card I can't beat BRU prices elsewhere

BRU- VIB Program

Idk I think Target always has formula deals, and then sweetens it with a $5 or $10 gift card. But I also stocked up when things were dirt cheap and I had checks.
But whatever works for your family!!

The best is when they have their diaper promotions if you buy 2 value packs you get $20 or sometimes $25 off and then on top of that, you can use manufacturer coupons! Can't beat those deals!

I use the gentlease and always bought the refill packs and it was always cheaper in Target. And Target has a slae they give you a $10 GC if you buy 2 all the time. I never had to buy formula not on sale because they had it so much.

BRU has the gerber 10 for 10 for 12 for 10 all the time but Target's normal price is under $1.00. The diapers are cheaper at BBB also. i would go to BBB when BRU had the buy 2 get $20 off and they would match the deal and the per box price was less at BRU.

It could be the actual store you go to cause I priced it all out when I was buying the formula. I switched to generic so now I save tons but I would always search for sales so I never had to pay full price for the gentlease.

Target is def cheaper for the refill packs that make 241 ounces. But right now the BRU in Westbury has the refill packs that make 267 ounces. Targets price was $34.99 and BRU was 36.99. About a $0.01 per ounce difference of BRU being less.. And when I use the rebate checks and now get an additional 10% back on the card, its definitely cheaper.

I did the same with the diapers.. BBB would match them when I couldn't find the larger count boxes at BRU or TRU.. So far, I've seen BJ's as the least expensive for Pamper swaddlers without any promotions..

But you're right, it probably depends on the store location...

last month they had the $25 gift card offer and P&G had $3 off a box of diapers coupons. It was great. Plus the extra VIP money...sigh...I need a deal like that again, hoping something good happens for Labor day.
