FREE LOCAL PICK-UP
We offer free pick up in Calgary. Select Local Pick Up under Shipping Method when checking out. We are located at 2439 Cortina Dr SW.
Pick up times are as follows, but please also check our update section if temporary changes are made by us:
- Monday 6 PM to 8 PM
- Tuesday 6 PM to 8 PM
- Thursday 6 PM to 8 PM
- Friday 12:30 PM to 4 PM
- Saturday 10:30 AM to 2 PM
We request one day notice for pick up orders, but if you need it sooner, please contact us to arrange as usually it can be done. Please ensure you write down your first choice pickup date and time in the note section when placing your order, especially if its requesting an off time. We will confirm once receiving the order as well as ensure you have the pick up address. We are located in the southwest of Calgary (more West than South). This policy is subject to change without notice.
I do make alternate arrangements as well if these times don't work for you. I can arrange pick-up from the downtown core or meet at another location suitable for both parties, etc.
Please bring a your own bag/box with you to carry away your order as I do not provide bags typically. We moved from Fort McMurray where all non-reusable shopping bags are banned and I really like the idea of using reusable bags or alternatives. Thanks in advance!
If you would like to look at a selection of inventory before you buy, please contact us and we can arrange a time that works for all!
PAYMENT
For all orders you can choose to pay online. Our convenient online payment options will accept Visa, American Express, and MasterCard. If you prefer to for your order over the phone, please call us with your card ready. We accept Cash, Certified Cheque, or Money Order, but your order will not ship until we have received the funds. You may pay cash or credit in person at time of pick up if picking up your order. Please select the Cash at Pick-Up under the Payment Method to do this.
We accept only Canadian funds. As of February 4, 2013, the penny will begin being phased out. We will be following the guidelines set-up by the Government of Canada (http://www.fin.gc.ca/1cent/index-eng.asp). Only cash payments and change will be effected.
Personal cheques will NOT be accepted unless you are willing to wait 5-7 business days after we have received the cheque. This is the usual wait time for banks to clear payments.
All custom orders must be prepaid before the item will be made/brought in. If the item is being made, an image will be sent after the item is completed. Orders being brought in special order do not have a guaranteed delivery date.
SHIPPING
Canadian Addresses ONLY at this time.
All ‘IN STOCK’ items will be shipped within 48 hours. We ship only within Canada at this time.
(2-10 days in Canada, $100 insurance included, taxes added upon checkout)
If you would like to purchase additional additional insurance for orders greater than $100, please contact us.
We tend to reuse boxes and minimize packaging. Don't be surprised if your order shows up in an interesting box! We also ship in recycled and reusable envelopes, so feel free to use it yourself!
We now offer FLAT RATE SHIPPING! $8* plus applicable taxes is all that it will cost you :) If the item(s) you are wanting can ship via lettermail, contact us and we will refund the difference. This applies to smaller, lighter items such as covers, Swimmis, Dry Mama nursing pads, etc. Let us know in the note section when ordering or after via email.
If you are pre-ordering an item(s) and choose to have 2 shipments, the flat rate fee will be applied to both shipments.
*Some exclusions apply to the shipping fee. Shipping to Ontario ($9), Quesbec ($9), Nunavat ($12), Northwest Territory ($10) and East Coast Provinces ($10) plus applicable taxes. This policy is subject to change without notice.
EXCLUSIONS
Due to the weight and/or size of product the following products will have an additional charge when shipping:
- Mother ease Diaper Pails (we do not ship)
- Bummis Prefold packages (Infant and Baby sizes only)
- Claudia's Choices Detergent (3.2 kg size), Rockin' Green Detergent, The Laundry Tarts Detergent (1.8 kg size), Allens Naturally Detergent

TAXES
All orders are taxed following our Canadian provincial and federal taxation guidelines. Orders shipped to Ontario, New Brunswick and Newfoundland will be charged 13% HST. Orders shipped to British Columbia will be charged 12% HST. Orders shipped to Nova Scotia will be charged 15% HST All taxes will be calculated at checkout, based on the parcel's destination. Orders shipped to Manitoba will be charged 7% PST on top of GST. Orders shipped to Prince Edward Island will be charged 10.5% PST on top of GST. Orders shipped to Saskatchewan will be charged 5% PST on top of GST. All diapers will be rebated applicable PST and PST portions of HST after checkout as our software is unable to do this automatically for provinces that charge PST or HST. We hope to have this issue solved in 2013.
