Yesterday I bought 75 baby outfits at a garage sale, plus a booster seat for the kitchen table plus the thing that is sheeps whool, that goes in our car seat to keep baby warm(sorry, I have no idea what it is called, all for $30!!!! I was so proud of myself. So because 90% of it was girl clothes, DH and I ventured to a few more garage sales today looking for boys clothes!!! We bought 30 boy outfits, a boppy,what to expect when our expecting, a baby sling and Fishe Price viatig chair for $29!!!!!! We wanted to check out one more sale and boy am I glad we did!! I got th Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain stroller for $20!!! It is a 2005, but it is in great condition. The lady didn't use it very much and for the most part it stayed in the garage never being used!!!! It is Black and gold, has speakers and a CD player hook up and plenty of storage. I am so in love with it. I looked it u nlie when I got home and couldn't find any recalls on it, and the only thing bad people had to say about it was it was bulky when it was all folded up!! This is going to be amazing when we go camping!!!

I was wonderig if anyone has one??? I don't know the weight specifications on it.

Anyways, most people IRL think I am crazy because I am not pregnant yet, but I think I am smart!! LOL!!! Say I got pregnant in the next couple months, I will be pregnant through winter, and knowone has yard sales in the winter!!!! I would be suck buying everything band new, which I don't want to do!!!!

Im not crazy for Jeep (even though i drive one!) they tend to be nice, but after some trips they fall apart. Even the brand that makes Jeep - I dont like anything theyve put out - hopefully you get good use out of it!! And no your not crazy for buying clothes and gear, better stock up now!

Hopefully I get some good use out of it!! If not, it was only $20!!!

I just hope you dont have twins

I wish my DH was as forth coming about buying baby clothes before i am even preggo!

Well, I can't claim to think you are crazy... I'm the girl that bought my wedding dress from eBay 10 months before I got engaged!

IMO you can't be too prepared... as long as you have the storage space. It's nice because it can serve as a reminder that despite your current difficulties, there is a baby on the other side of this!

I think DH is just so excited to get so much for so cheap!! He knows Im the kinda person who has to have everything, so if we can get it now, while people are still having garage sales then he is all for that!!!

You should have seen his face light up when I hooked my mp3 player up to the stroller and it started to play music, he was like a little kid, he got all excited!!

Your so right Kyle. It keeps me optimistic, I need this stuff and to do this shopping to stay positive!!! It's like a really cheap therapist!!! LOL

wow you got some AWESOME deals! I think that's a very smart thing to do.

I think its so smart. My DH would crap a brick if I came home with 70 baby outfits though!! Even if they were free. Apparently as of now, he thinks our child will be wrapped in newspapers and sleeping in a dresser drawer.
