I wouldn't get it until we had more than 1 little one though. Not worth it for one. I'll take 1 kid to the park easily! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-would-you-pay-for-a-play-set#post-594832 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 15:24:50 +0000 anonysquire 594832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad always built us playhouses. They were incredible with running water, 2 floors, doorbells, a little garage, carpet, a garden. Oh I loved those! So hopefully I could convince him to make me one. Right now they are converting their dog run into a magic play land for grand kids. It's going to be so awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-would-you-pay-for-a-play-set#post-594796 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 15:16:42 +0000 Bookish 594796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our yard is long and narrow, with a lot of tree, so a big playset won't work in our yard. We probably won't spend more than 400-500$ on one :) I grew up with this one: </p> <p><a href="http://www.littletikes.com/kids-toys/classic-castle?utm_source=googleCSE&#038;utm_medium=CPC&#038;utm_term=4126&#038;utm_campaign=CSE&#038;gclid=CI3S_p3l1LUCFQP0nAodIjMAkw" rel="nofollow">http://www.littletikes.com/kids-toys/classic-castle?utm_source=googleCSE&#038;utm_medium=CPC&#038;utm_term=4126&#038;utm_campaign=CSE&#038;gclid=CI3S_p3l1LUCFQP0nAodIjMAkw</a></p> <p>So I want it for LO lol.... mostly because you can see our 'castle' entrance to the neighborhood from the backyard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-would-you-pay-for-a-play-set#post-594741 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 14:55:42 +0000 Mrs. Pen 594741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@duckduckkristen: what a score!

My SIL bought one for her daughter and it was about 800? I think that is a pretty good deal! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-would-you-pay-for-a-play-set#post-594702 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 14:45:19 +0000 duckduckkristen 594702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: I know! DH spent months searching for the best deal. We would have bought a smaller one, but it was only another couple hundred for this one that is much bigger so we figured why not? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-would-you-pay-for-a-play-set#post-594686 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 14:41:10 +0000 Mrs. Pen 594686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@duckduckkristen: wow!!!

I feel like I got a major deal. I would love it if Hubs would make one but realistically he would say he would and then never follow through. I figure it's worth a little extra dough to just get. it. done. It's this one <a href="http://www.costco.com/Gorilla%c2%ae-Playsets-Five-Star-Playset---Do-It-Yourself.product.11624195.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.costco.com/Gorilla%c2%ae-Playsets-Five-Star-Playset---Do-It-Yourself.product.11624195.html</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-would-you-pay-for-a-play-set#post-594623 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 14:24:53 +0000 littlek 594623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@duckduckkristen: Wow!!

We have a big yard and plan to have 4 kids, so we figured it will get a lot of use. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-would-you-pay-for-a-play-set#post-594559 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 14:08:37 +0000 Mrs. Pen 594559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just saw this on babble: <a href="http://bit.ly/YxPGuC" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/YxPGuC</a></p> <p>some are amazing but serious, up to 25k for a playset?!?! insane to me.</p> <p>I wouldn't want to spend more than $500 on an outdoor play set. My dad designed and built ours when we were kids, it's still sitting there! I'm sure DH will do that once we have a house with a yard.</p> <p>personally I think these play rooms are pretty epic though: <a href="http://www.cedarworks.com/product/indoor" rel="nofollow">http://www.cedarworks.com/product/indoor</a> </p>
