That's about what ours cost. Haven't used it yet actually. </p> <p>@mediagirl: flying. Not sure what airline but I think most charge for the pnp. You just get free gate check or car seat or stroller. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-gear-rental#post-1112464 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 09:03:31 +0000 immabeetoo 1112464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: that's about how much our cheapie pack and play was from target. I'd just buy one when you get there and donate it before you leave. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-gear-rental#post-1112400 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 08:54:05 +0000 mediagirl 1112400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are you driving or flying?</p> <p>You can rent a carseat through the car company and if you rent through AAA, it's free! I'm still feeling weird about that because we're not sure we can get a rear-facing seat and we want our lo to be rear-facing...</p> <p>For the rental cost, I would just take and check the pnp. We flew SW and they told us that the PnP, since it was a child item, checked for free (so we could have checked 4 bags plus the PnP). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-gear-rental#post-1112322 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 08:42:36 +0000 Foodnerd81 1112322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you ever used a baby gear rental company? What did you rent? Something like this: <a href="http://anythingforbaby.com/" rel="nofollow">http://anythingforbaby.com/</a> </p> <p>We are renting a house for Christmas and I was thinking we'd have to pack the PnP in a giant suitcase, but DH found this-- only $38 to rent a pack and play for the week. </p> <p>If you've used one, what did you rent? Were things in good condition? Would you rent a car seat, stroller? </p> <p>Personally I'm wary of renting a car seat, plus, how would we get to the airport? And if we take the car seat, I feel like we would want the snap and go base for it anyway. But the rest of the stuff might be a good way to see what she likes for things like jumparoo/exersaucers and stuff. She'll be almost 5 months when we travel so really I think we just need a place for her to sleep, and a place for her to sit and chill with us. </p>
