Whatever You Do....Do NOT Pay Full Price for Baby Gear!

We fell into the Babies R Us trap, and bought the travel system.  We love the car seat, but the stroller is just too big (it's really nice, but not good for being in the car).

Top five best places to get good deals on baby gear!

#1 Craigslist:
Do a little research and look for the items you want.

#2 Garage Sales:
This is hit or miss but a great place to find clothes, toys, books and furniture.

#3 Friends:
Most of our friends where happy to share with us all the baby stuff that you only use for a few months.

#4 Consignment:
These sales are held frequently, and are more expensive than garage sales, but you will find great deals on large items.

#5 Grandparents:
If you are eying a dress or some new clothing, tell the grandparents and they are usually more than happy to help out!
