Whats been your best bargain!!??
Hi Girls
I have been obsessed recently with finding all the best bargains for my baba, I find it such a joy!!
So far my friends have lent me a swinging crib with bedding, bumbo, jumperoo and other bits and pieces, my best bargain buy has been a fisher price rainforest open-top baby swing and baby bjorn carrier for ??20 (from a lovely mum local to me on netmums) and a M&P Barnaby Buttons baby vibrating bouncer for ??7 from Netmums.
Its amazing the things that you can get for a great price, I'm not a snob and don't mind getting thngs that have been pre-loved, I am chuffed to bits, hopefully my bartering and bargaining skills will continue.

I got a swinging crib and moses basket from a local mum for ??25 x
My best bargain is probably my Mamas and Papas moses basket which my friend gave me - complete with a load of baby grows!
Also, the same friend sold me her Quinny with car seat etc for ??150.
I got a baby bath in the Asda event for ??2, as it had a tiny little crack at the top of it - doesn't stop it working!
I have picked up a lot of second hand stuff so no need like you say to pay a fortune!! I bought a couple sleeping bags for a ??1 each yet in moethercare they are ??20!!!x
When are you due?x
We got quite a few . New cool nappy bag ???????8.99 from China! & cool new moses basket exactly the one i wanted cream & brown with the rope handles but could never justify the price of a new one, so was delighted to find it by accident less than half price @ ???????30
Got new Tomy digital baby links from ebay too about ???????30 less than in shops & new buggy fantastic value @ ??185 for full travel system. All in all we've done really well with bargains!

Gotta love likes of Boots, Sainsburys, Tesco with all freebies if sign up to there baby club x
Other than that, a friend of hubby's gave us their high chair, a wooden rocking horse, a stair gate and a big bag of toys, all for free (he needs the space in his garage for a new car!), which was so generous.
Oh and ofcourse my Aunty and MIL have been knitting like the wind and I have about 15 gorgeous hand knitted cardigans now that are totally lovely.
