It's Target Baby Sale time! Until Saturday July 11, the biggest names in baby are on sale at our favorite store. I'm excited to share some of my Baby Sale purchases and also share some ideas for how you can take advantage of the current deals, too.

But, first, here's the scoop on some of the best deals:

• Spend $125, get $20 Target Gift Card
• Spend $200, get $40 Target Gift Card
• Diaper sale across all national and Target-owned brands
• Graco sale across entire brand, including car seats, strollers, play yards and more

If you shop the Baby Sale in a store, there are signs everywhere highlighting the sales and providing instructions on how to earn a Target gift card on your purchase.

I've shared my top 10 registry must haves from Target, so that's a great place to start if you're shopping the Baby Sale to prepare for a new arrival. It's includes many of our favorite "big" baby purchases (think stroller, baby carrier, etc).

For those of us who are no longer making babies - or baby registries - there is still PLENTY to stock up on during the Target Baby Sale.

Stokke at Target

This year I shopped the Target Baby Sale with gift-giving in mind, but I admit the first thing I purchased was totally for my family. I am still totally stoked that Stokke is available at Target! We are now the proud owners of a complete family set of five Tripp Trapp chairs. I bought one a few years ago during the Target Baby Sale and it was the first thing I searched for when given an opportunity to check out this year's sale.

At $265, a Tripp Trapp during the Baby Sale automatically qualifies for a $40 Target gift card with purchase. By my shopping math, that means I can call it a $225 deal on the chair which is a steal. (My husband often disagrees with my sale math, but that's not really the point. My awesome family of chairs is the point.)

Best New Baby Gift Ideas

Just because we're not stocking up for a new baby in my immediate family doesn't mean I'm not stocking up on baby goods during the Baby Sale! My daughter and I had a blast picking out blankets, onesies, lotions and gifts galore for friends and family who recently had a baby or are expecting.

Even if you don't have a specific baby in mind, here are some new baby gift ideas to shop during the Target Baby Sale. These are great essentials to pick up for less and keep on hand so you're prepared when the next baby shower invite arrives.

While the saying "sleep like a baby" pretty much translates to wake up every couple hours to cry, eat and pee, there are some essentials that make it a little bit easier to get a good night's rest.

• Just One You Newborn Mint Collection ($6 - $10)
• SwaddleDesigns Muslin Swaddle Blankets ($35)

These baby toys are classic and always a hit with babies - and their mamas.

• Infantino Tub O' Toys Animals ($13)
