Freebies form the Crib: Another Rowdy Diaper Bag


This freebie might look a little familiar because we highlighted
Rowdy back in December. It was a super-cool product and a generous giveaway back then so how could we pass up an opportunity to do another! To refresh your memory, Rowdy was started by two husband and wife teams (Sara & Mike and Kat & Justin) who set out to design, produce and sell the "perfect diaper bag".
The Rocker Convertible in green - is currently sitting in my closet just waiting for it's multitude of pockets to be filled with tiny newborn diapers, a change of clothing and all that other stuff newborns need (i'm struggling right now to remember what those things are--guess I still have a few more weeks to remember again).

But don't forget the best part of every Rowdy bag--the removable, washable lining. All moms who have ever had a bottle leak or a sippy cup spill in your diaper bag please raise your hand. You know it is next to impossible to get it cleaned out. Then the milk residue hiding in all the cracks starts smelling bad. Ugh, it's disgusting. Not with a Rowdy bag. After a spill, just pull out the waterproof lining and throw it in the washing machine and your bag is as good as new. Love that!
Now for the freebie, the winner will will receive the Sophisticate Bowler in the color of their choice (a retail value of $120)! Will you choose the sleek white just in time for spring, or the sophisticated tan? Just enter a comment below! If you don't happen to need a new diaper bag in your life right now please tell someone who does. These bags promise to make any new mom (or returning mom like me) giddy with delight.


And if you don't happen to win the freebie, all the parents at Rowdy are once again offering a 15% discount to all Tales readers. Just enter the code: TALES at checkout.
How to win this Freebie:
-You have until Thursday(2/28), midnight EST to enter.
-Make a comment (any comment) on the post
-Please don't post under Anonymous - use a Blogger login or the "nickname" category.
-Winner will be randomly picked and announced Friday(2/29) morning.
-Please only enter (comment) once.
-Tales contributors are excluded from winning the freebies--sorry :(
-Freebies can only be shipped to US addresses.
What's with the Freebie?

I have a friend who could desperately use one of these fantastic bags. How is that for altruistic? I’m going to give it away to someone else.

I've been hauling around the one the hospital gives away when you deliver for the past six months now... and let's just say we've been a little "rowdy" with it over these six months, and could really use a new one!!!!

You know, I just found your site a week or so ago and I love it!!! I am a mom to a three year old, and I'm expecting #2 in April! This would be the perfect addition!! I've been telling my husband that I want a cute diaper bag, and he just rolls his eyes. What's a girl to do? But he can't complain if I win it and get ir for free, right?

With two still in diapers and a third coming in about 6 weeks, I could definitely use a diaper bag. And when the last Rowdy freebie came up, the sophisticate bowler was the one I really liked, so this is perfect...

Ok...if you pick me, pick again because I am happily baby-less. But I just have to say that these are gorgeous bags! Holy Man! Like maybe I would give it to JLo if she invited me to her baby shower which she probably won't because I am not really one of her friends. But I like to have a few ideas stashed away just in case.

Sounds like there are a lot of pregnant moms out there including myself expecting #5. They did not have all this neat stuff when i had my other children. I need this because my teenage daughters will not allow me to use anything that is not "stylish and cute".
