I *think* we've decided on the city select, now I can't decide on color!

    I voted for the cheapest because I'm a cheapie! :)
    I usually would go that route as well, however with a $20 difference on a $500 dollar purchase I feel like I might as well get the color I want. I was trying to get DH on board with a $150 stroller and this is what he preferred.

    I said teal because I think all black will get too hot in the sun.  I guess it depends how often you plan to use it outside.

    Living in the south, I try to avoid black strollers because it seems like they would get hot faster. Not sure if it has any truth to it, but that is why I avoid them.

    Our single was black and never got warm, plus with 4-5 months of warm weather I'm not too worried.

    We have a double black stroller and live in Florida. It never gets hot. I love it because it doesn't show dirt.

    I got a City Mini in the beige color and like it. I was afraid the dark colors would get too hot. I love how they fold in half! It has freed up so much more room in the back of our car. I was missing having a caddy, so I got the Britax Stroller Organizer which velcros onto the handle and that has been quite handy for water bottles and snacks. Also, I got mine off pishposhbaby.com since they had the lowest price for the city mini that I had seen. They don't have all the colors you are looking at, but they do have black and also free shipping - 2013 black with silver is $389.

    I have the britax b-agile double in teal, so I picked teal.

    NEVERMIND. you said city select. carry on :)

    I loved that stroller, but the second I put DS in the back seat he started kicking the front one, and I couldn't see M being any different when she was older.

    @auroraloo‌ I now have a friend offering me her peacock b agile for $30, it's been out of the box for 2 walks and she has decide on something else... It can be nice having wealthy and indecisive friends...

    How do you like it for outdoor use?

    Ummmm...I would take that deal!  And the last thing I need is another stroller. @-)

    I voted teal because the summer is coming and I usually like a ligher color canopy. I did an all black stroller and frame for my bugaboo but I'm on the third canopy swap. Are you able to change out the canopy color for winter?

    Nope. My single was black and it was fine, but I don't think any of the parts are ment to be changed.

    My only worry is how the side by side will work for inside stuff, but there is a kohls stacking code for 20 and 30 % and I might try to swing a b ready or bob and end up at the same cost as the select... 

    I hate picking baby stuff.

    I have a side by side for the boys and love it so much more than the front to back. The one I have has individual canopies for both boys, so when they are annoying each other I just pull the canopies down and separate them.

    I have 2 double strollers and both are side by side. I have never had problems inside stores or on sidewalks and the kids love having their own space and view, and both seats lay flat.

    Can you share the codes? I need a new carseat for B and was thinking of ordering through there if the price is better.

    Everything I find online says the 30% starts tomorrow which is after the baby sale that ends today. Do you @AKB090609 have a different code for 30% for today?

     

     

  • Options
    @Pokedot I have been told that the 30% and kohls cash both start at 12am eastern or central and the baby sale doesn't end until after 12am pacific. Therefore all three will be in effect for a few hours late tonight. I can't fall asleep until after 2am lately so I think I'll give it a shot worst case senerio it doesn't work, I'll be awake anyway.

    I see! Well I went ahead and ordered a carseat with the 20% Babysale20 and Myday20. I got a great deal so it worked out ok. Would have bee nice with an extra 10% but we needed a seat so I won't chance it! Hope it works out for you! Keep me posted! Now I'm curious.

    I'll be sure to let you know! I told my friend I'll buy her stroller, because even if I don't like it I think I will be able to get my money out of it, so if the kohls stuff doesn't work I will still have a way to move my kids around and can wait for the next sale.

    @Pokedot‌ it worked! I ended up getting the BOB for $356 before tax, I'm pretty thrilled since most of the ones on Craig's List are going for more than that. I stayed up a little late but for nearly 50% off I've done crazier things!

    Awesome! I thought about you this morning (sorry if that's creepy.) I'm glad it worked for you! I got about 40% on the carseat and it was already on sale so I'm not sure if I could have gotten a better deal. I couldn't wake up at 2am if you paid me! Haha. Glad it worked for you!

    I haven't been able to fall asleep before midnight in a few weeks, at least last night was worth it!

    I have the opposite problem lately. I can't wait to get to sleep. My head hits the pillow and I'm out but in the morning I can't get up!
