Sadly most of the free stuff they can get has Pampers or SMA on the packaging :roll:

They're saying that all the baby companies worldwide are sending gift hampers to William & Kate. Some of them worth nearly $3,000 :shock:

And it's not just nappies and bottles - prams worth $900, designer clothes too.
Some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them.

The rest of us are a bit crap.

Don't knock the Pampers samples. Accumulate enough and you can make your very own DIY padded room when they reach the teen years...

Yes, if there's a couple who really needs free baby stuff, it's them... :roll:

Well, that's all famous couples really. I can't imagine Posh & Becks have ever bought a pram. But the Royals tend to donate a lot of stuff they get given (I wouldn't think other celebs do, could be wrong). Their wedding list had charitable donations on it.

You're right of course.

I expected that they would donate a lot if not all of it, it's really the companies that annoy me. I was wondering if it wasn't easier if baby product companies would send their freebies to hospitals or charities for poor families with a card saying something like 'a donation in celebration of the royal offspring'.

But I'm afraid Ghost might be right...
