One Way I Save Time: Buying Household Items Online
It’s been just over a month since I went back to work. I feel like I am still getting in the rhythm of it, especially with having three kids now!
One thing I have been reminded of is how grateful I am for using a few delivery services for my shopping. ePantry (for household goods), Honest Company (for diapers and a few essentials) and Amazon Prime (for everything else) all help save me massive time because they reduce my need to stop at a store and buy things our family needs.
I know many of you use ePantry, or you have at least read about them here on The Mom Creative. I just noticed that they are doing an awesome promo for their users through their referral program, so I wanted to pass it along to you.
Normally, when you refer a friend to ePantry, they get a $10 credit to try the service out and when they purchase you earn a $10 credit.
Through the end of the month, ePantry is offering double referral credits. Refer a friend and you will earn a $20 credit! This can add up very quickly and save you a lot of money (and time) to buy the things your family uses.
BONUS: All new customers get a $10 credit + a Grove Candle ($12.95 value) in their first order.
So if you haven’t signed up for ePantry, this is the week to try them out. And if you are a user, this is the week to refer your friends.
I have used ePantry for about a year and I can’t speak highly enough about their amazing customer service, quick shipments and competitive prices. It is where I get everything from laundry detergent to face wash to toothpaste.
Also, because many of you have signed up through my referral link (thank you!) I have also used many of my credits to buy items to donate to needy families in my community. The picture above is of me with a huge donation we did at the holidays (I can’t believe my pregnant belly!).
We never run out of household items because of ePantry. Just this week, we use the last of the soft soap in the bathroom and I thought we were out. Then I remembered, no I have a refill under the sink from ePantry.
Always having the things we need on hand and not having to spend time shopping for them is such a gift, particularly since going back to work.
When I first started using ePantry I thought I would be spending more money. Afterall, how could the prices be competitive when there was shipping involved? Well, ePantry prices are about 26% cheaper than the grocery store and shipping is free, but more importantly, I am saving money because I am not impulse buying extras like I do when I go to a store.
So if you are a member of ePantry, log-in and grab your referral link and spread the word to some friends. And if you are not a member, I encourage you to sign up. I really, really think you will love their service.
Also, their candles are AMAZING, so getting a free one of those is a big perk! They are my most favorite candles ever. I buy a few every time I order. They smell amazing and last a really long time. I have them all over my house.

Is shipping free to Canada too?
I’m not sure, but if you reach out to their customer service, they are super responsive!
