Well it’s that time of the year again! The days are getting longer, and the hotter it gets the more a lot of us feel like sleeping off those summer days. Or maybe you’re like us and get that extra boost of motivation to stay busy! Either way, we’ve got some insider news, coupons, and more to share with you. And yes, that’s right, we did say insider-anyone following our blog posts got an email when this one went out. Why is that important? This post contains our July 4th coupons-and they got posted here a day earlier than anywhere else! Which means following our blog gives you first pick when it comes to items that go especially fast when we are having a sale. So let’s get down to it!
We know all this talk about coupons has you excited, but first we’d like to take just a minute to catch you up on what’s been going on around here. We recently got an Instagram account in addition to our Facebook page and Pinterest accounts, but it’s a little unique for us: it gives a fun behind-the scenes type look at what happens before our products get to you! You can find us by clicking the link at the bottom of every page or look us up @tickle_me_tubies.
During the month of June, we were able to send out not one, but two donation packages! We pulled together some items for two wonderful organizations and we’d like to give them the spotlight for just a minute.
First up was this lovely bundle we sent off to Sunshine Packages! We sent off 20 tubie pads, 3 child sized masks, 3 adult sized masks, and a teddy bear that we added a port (type of central line) and an NG/NJ tube.
In case you don’t know who they are, Sunshine Packages is a small organization run by a teen girl who sends out care packages, boxes of sunshine, to children and teens facing life threatening illnesses requiring frequent medical treatment. They run purely on donations so they are always in need! They accept donations of toys and other items to include in the packages as well as monetary donations to cover the cost of shipping each package. To learn more about them, donate, apply for a package, or just leave an encouraging note, you can find them on Instagram @sunshinepackages and visit their website: sunshinepackages.yolasite.com. 
Our second donation package this month went out to the Bohring-Opitz Syndrome (or BOS) Foundation. The BOS Foundation works to raise awareness and promote research for BOS, as well as providing support for individuals with BOS and their families. BOS is an extremely rare genetic condition. It can cause many symptoms, including feeding and GI issues which put many on feeding tubes. 
We were very excited to get to send off 35 tubie pads as well as a NG/NJ tubie bear and a G tubie bear for them to distribute to patients currently dealing with BOS.
There has certainly been a lot of excitement around here! We have our first masks available with colored elastic ear loops and have made quite a few new tubie clips available for purchase. But the excitement doesn’t end here! In honor of July 4th weekend coming up we have two coupons now available! Please note the limit is one coupon per purchase. Both coupons start today, June 30th, and expire at 11:59 pm CST on July 6th, 2016. So here they are: you can use coupon code 4JULY16 and receive 10% any purchase of $8 or more (not including shipping), or code JULY4TH to receive $4 off any purchase of $30 or more (before shipping).
Enjoy & happy shopping!
