So now that we are moving on to the second round of babies I was wondering what are some of the big purchases you are looking into. We are having another boy, so this really just brings our purchases down to a double stroller. I don't know if anybody is to this point yet, except for Greer who probably already has something, but I just wanted to let everybody knwo about the Britax promotion going on right now. Basically if you get a "B-Ready" stroller you recieve a free toddler seat/choice between two infant carriers/or a bassinet. We just got one this weekend. It was a little more than we wanted to spend, but we were able to get a free seat with it plus we purchased ours at Buy Buy Baby, and they let us use a 20% off coupon from Babies r Us on it so that saved us an extra 100 dollars. We opted to get a free car seat and hope to sell it on ebay for extra savings. Overall if we can get full price for the car seat then our double stroller will only have cost us around $250, which if you haven't started looking is actually a pretty good deal. We did try out the sit and stand strollers, and even though we loved it in theory Andrew just didnt get it, and the carrier hit him in the back of the head so it wasnt a good option for us...Anyways, I hope everybody is doing well!

ReplyDeleteSorry I was meaning to include this link so you guys could look up details on the promotion.
I had looked at the Britax and the Citi Mini Double but decided that we didn't want to spend that kind of money so I started thinking about a sit and stand, especially because Molly doesn't like to sit in a stroller for long periods of time. I found one in good condition, with the infant car seat adapter, at a consignment sale, for TWENTY DOLLARS! Very happy with that purchase. :-D
ReplyDeleteWe also decided the price for new double strollers was a no go--especially since we are not sure how long Hadley will tolerate one. Some of them are $600! We actually stumbled upon a Joovy sit and stand at a yard sale and got it for $50. I took Hadley with me to look at it and she loved it since it has a place where she can sit and a place where she can stand. It also fit our Chicco Keyfit 30 carseat.
