  • That is awesome!  I wish I could find those kinds of deals around here.  I have seen baby things at garage sales, but nothing that I felt was nice enough to buy.

    At one garage sale, I bought an unopened package of 4 Avent bottles for $10, and I was pretty proud of myself.  However, I called the company when I got home and it turns out that the bottles are an older version which still has BPA.  I had to throw them away.  I hate wasting money.

  • Way to go!

     

    We passed one this afternoon and I made DH hit the breaks and back up.  I saw baby stuff.  Turns out it is a lady who is phasing out her in home day care and we got a Fisher Price Take Along Swing, with tags on and matching bouncy chair for $40 total!  They are in great shape clean and ready to go.  I will still be washing the covers of course but I was so excited!!

  • I love secondhand shopping!! Between my own shopping and my mom's, I've got a FP cradle swing, FP take-along swing, Boppy and two covers, FP bouncer seat, Gymini play mat, and a TON of clothes and books. I think I've spent less than $100 overall.

    After our showers I'll definitely keep scouring secondhand stores and yard sales for deals.
