My husband wants to make the crib himself although that scares me a bit. 😜</p> <p>I've heard a lot of the Facebook garage sale / or gear swap pages. Those are great I'm sure, if you can find one in your area. </p> <p>If you know of anything location specific feel free to post.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/saving-as-much-as-possible-for-new-baby#post-2426665 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 19:38:29 +0000 Littlebit7 2426665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wish I would had waited to purchase a lot of gear and purchased it pre-loved instead. We have a great local FB buy sell trade and I've gotten SO much stuff on average 75% off. Toys, swings, strollers, clothes, bouncers. All in great shape.<br /> I also lumped my registry together onto Amazon. People could purchase if they wanted but I got bonkers deals with my completion discount and amazons great prices and return policies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/saving-as-much-as-possible-for-new-baby#post-2426635 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 19:22:21 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2426635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think the best way is to really narrow down your list for what you really need and how much you are willing to spend BEFORE shopping. If you start looking at nursery ideas and fall in love with a crib only to realize it's expensive and doesn't go on sale you are more likely to break the bank. I researched and found things like cribs often get scratched so going with something simple like the Graco was an easy budget saver. </p> <p>We also shopped lots of consignment sales. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/saving-as-much-as-possible-for-new-baby#post-2426567 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 17:59:53 +0000 jhd 2426567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have used Hip2Save to get info on the best diaper deals. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/saving-as-much-as-possible-for-new-baby#post-2426420 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 16:12:09 +0000 M4mi 2426420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The Penny Hoarder site looks like there are a lot of coupons and ways to get freebies.. Any other ideas? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/saving-as-much-as-possible-for-new-baby#post-2426406 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 16:01:05 +0000 M4mi 2426406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am really early on in my 2nd pregnancy (only 4 weeks), my first is 6yo, and I already started looking into coupons and deals etc. We will be going from two incomes to one so that I can stay home with my little one(s). With my first I considered it a jinx to buy anything in the first trimester, but for some reason this time around, I feel it's a jinx not to.. Anyway, I'm hoping to bring to you a place where we can share coupons and deals, as well as all the miscellaneous things that go through our "hormonal" minds while pregnant and while trying to get pregnant! P.s. I love Shoppingg. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/view-of-the-day/page/2#post-2188846 Mon, 25 May 2015 21:29:27 +0000 andthewildones 2188846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaG: agreed :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/view-of-the-day/page/2#post-2188804 Mon, 25 May 2015 20:40:31 +0000 MamaG 2188804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lovely pale purple roses.
