Do you think this is mad?? :lol:
Hi
My brother and sis in law have 2 kids and my nephew turns 2 next week, anyway to cut a long story short they have asked me if we would like first refusal on buying my nephews nursery range there is a cot bed, wardrobe, chest of drawers, little bedside cabinet and they are also going to give me the dinosaur rocking horse.
My bro wants ??200 for it and I have to admit it is in mint condition and solid pine from argos all we would need is a mattress and bedding etc, now the furniture I have looked at so far when I have been browsing is ??500 plus so it would save us money aswell when the time comes.
We dont have to buy it now they are going to get my nephew a bed and new furniture in a few months time so they said they will store it for me in their spare room. My brother said we could have had it free but they want to build up my nephews bank account so I know he wont hold me for the money as I feel a bit stupid buying it now before I have a BFP!
Am I tempting fate? or should I be positive and grab a bargain?
Every bit helps eh

I'm not sure about 'fate' myself. It seems to be one of those things people fall back on to try and explain unfortunate situations to comfort themselves. If you don't get a bfp straight away, it's not going to be because you bought some stuff early.
U will get ur BFP next cycle and then u will be needing it

Up to you hun, that is a very good bargain ! lol ! xxxxxx
I will be storing everything at my parents until much nearer but I dont mind having little things, clothes, bibs, bottles etc in my own home. Nice to have things to look at I havent bought anything yet and am so tempted!
My brother doesnt really want the money until when we are ready to pay for it so probably by time I come to buy it I will have a nice big fat bump!!
Thanks for your replies xx
