What are your best bargains so far?

Hello all,

So far I've managed to get some fab bargains, mainly from eBay.

We got a cotbed, chest of drawers/changing unit thing, toy box and draw/shelf type unit, a pliko pramette travel system with carseat and ALL the accessories for £300! It's all in perfect condition.

We also got a M&P 03 Sport including carseat and other accessories for £25!

Honestly, what would we do in a world without eBay?!

We also got almost the entire Barnaby Button range from Mamas & Papas sale a while ago, all at 75% off.

I'm currently searching for a second hand mamas and papas isofix base to fit the Primo Viaggio car seats which came with both the travel systems. They are £140 new and we want one for each car. Even on eBay they go for about £70 so so far no luck.

What's been your best bargain?

My steriliser was a massive bargain... and I haven't stopped going on about it since I bought it! It had 50% off in the Mothercare sale, so was down from £120 to £60, and my sister-in-law works for Mothercare, therefore her staff discount got me an extra £12 off - got everything we'll need for £48! Cheap as chips!

Everything we got has been a bargain. The only thing I have paid full price for is a Harrods annual bear.

We were given the cot, changing table, bath, play mat, rocking chair.

Our parents bought us the Bugaboo, Car seat and jumperoo bundle for £600.

We got a Ziggy Zebra swing on e bay 1/2 price - £40

Everything else I have bought second hand from e bay or nearly new sales.

We've not paid full price for anything so far!

Our cotbed was reduced from £300 to £200 and we used a £20 online discount voucher and ended up paying just £180 for it.

Our travel system was pretty good too. The instore rrp was £335 but online it was £275.
Using a discount voucher again, we got it for £250!

The bath support they sell for £22 in Mamas & Papas was something we found on ebay, brand new for £5!

I promise to buy at least one full-price thing for the baby before it arrives :-)
