796.0. "Manufactures "Baby Clubs"" by JULIET::CARLSON_CH () Wed Aug 03 1994 13:52

    Does anyone know how I can get enrolled in some of the "Baby Clubs"
    that the different formula/diaper manufacturers sponser.  Apparently,
    this is a great way to receive special offers and coupons for
    purchases.  
    
    I'm especially interested in one from Ross Laboratories for their
    Similac baby formula and Huggies Diapers.
    
    Thanks,

796.2		PLUGH::NEEDLE	Money talks. Mine says "Good-Bye!"	`Wed Aug 03 1994 14:42`	12
	Boy, I thought people only asked how to getg off these, not on them ;-). I signed up for American Baby (free to expectant parents) using my wife's name, but with a slight modification so I'd know which junk mail resulted from this free subscription. We still get things almost daily from just that one subscription and the "baby" is 14 months old (not to mention that our 6 free issues are still coming - every one with a note: "This is your last complimentary issue" ;-) ). Fortunately, much of the "junk" mail has included valuable coupons and some great catalogues. j.
796.3	gotta like those freebies and coupons!	NAPIER::HEALEY	M&ES, MRO4, 297-2426	`Wed Aug 03 1994 15:44`	13
	>>re: American baby... our 6 free issues are still coming - every one with >>a note: "This is your last complimentary issue" ;-) ) I'm getting these too! I don't even LIKE the magazine. RE: those mailing lists.... I got on the lists I'm on by filling out a couple of cards at the doctors office (ob/gyn). I also got some freebies at the hospital when Lauren was delivered and at her first doctors appointment. Karen
796.4	call the company directly	POCUS::CUFF		`Wed Aug 03 1994 15:48`	8
	Call the 1-800 phone number of the appropriate formula/diaper company, ask. If you see a coupon with a place for name/address fill it in. I actually got on the Pampers/Luvs list after calling in to complain about a defective package of Pampers; called Ross when I had a problem preparing powdered Prosobee; was asked if I'd be interested in their mailing list including coupons. Good luck!
