Nursery Furniture - soooo expensive - any tips of bargains??
Just been look at nursery furniture sets, we would like a cotbed and a wardrobe and a dresser/changing top - I like white or cream really.
Had a look in major shops websites and everything is soooo expensive, I'm a bit early looking but want to buy it soon, so to spread the cost.
Does anyone know anywhere that's reasonable as the cheapest set I can find is ??500.00
Any tips appreciated. thanks

I didn't get a changing unit and am quite glad i didn't as it wouldn't have suited us because my lo is a right wriggler when having nappy changes and you need so many hands to hold her on so i prefer to change her on a mat on the floor.
If you do want baby furniture try Argos or Ikea they have quite good prices and may still have a sale.
Have you tried babies are us. I know in their windsor range they do it in white and a honey colour. it is very reasonably priced and currently half price. We brought the cot bed in honey for ??99. They do a matching changing station for ??49 and a wardrobe/tallboy for ??199.
I also bought a rocking crib from our local adtrader for ??25 . It is in mint condition. It should have cost ??69 from mothercare and I have to say the one I have bought second hand looks better than the one they had on display. I bought a new mattress for it for ??11.99. I feel i have got a real bargain.
it does not bother me that it is second hand as I know the babies are not in them for long and when I have finished with it I shall sell it on again.
Hope this helps,
