Then I track the prices online/at my favorite stores and have been able to get really fabulous prices on the items I wanted. I ended up getting the tripp trapp in the color I wanted (natural) brand new for $150 which isn't bad at all! In fact, I have gotten anywhere from 20% to 70% off of every single baby item I've purchased by keeping an eye on sales and price drops and online coupons. It's a bit of work keeping on top of but it makes me feel great that I'm not compromising on what I really want for something cheaper and yet I'm still paying about as much if not even less than the cheaper items. </p> <p>Regarding the Xplory, I've heard not so great things about it! I don't understand why it's so expensive. You can't fold it one handed, in fact I think you have to take it apart before it folds? I have a friend who returned it after a week because it was nice and high quality but not as practical in use as many cheaper brands (but then, most brands are cheaper ;p) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312628 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 09:32:11 +0000 Kffw 312628@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A high-end designer diaper bag for sure! And fancy strollers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312559 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 09:00:07 +0000 Mrs. Bee 312559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hmmm maybe a comfy loveseat now that olive is really getting too long for the glider! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312534 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 08:47:06 +0000 autumnlove 312534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want a stroller that can work as a double stroller that isn't too heavy. Dream on? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312527 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 08:45:10 +0000 fairefaire 312527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Arden: So agreed! I covet all of the Stokke products. I know that I'll save up for the Tripp Trapp, but doubt I'll be able to get Xplory or Sleepi unless they are gifted to us (highly unlikely). But at the slow rate our TTC has been going, maybe I'll have ages to save and be able to get it all :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312486 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 08:23:27 +0000 Sammyfab 312486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love dreaming of things I could buy! I would want either Stokke or DwellStudio furniture (specifically a glider!) and maybe a Madeline Weinrib rug for the nursery. I'd also be a stroller hoarder and get a really good umbrella stroller and the BOB jogging stroller for hubby on top of the UB Vista we already have. Lastly, I love baby carriers and would love to either try the Boba 3G or the Stokke carrier.</p> <p>We tend to splurge on items we really love but not without finding a super good deal on it. We have the Stokke Tripp trapp and my sister got us the cb2 pouf for Christmas last year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312388 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 07:07:57 +0000 heffalump 312388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know I'd want a fancier stroller, but since I know I can't get one I haven't looked to see which ones are out there. It would just make me sad to see what I'm missing out on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312382 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 06:56:55 +0000 hilsy85 312382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only thing I would want would be a bigger nursery! Ours is kind of small...but I'm really happy with all our gear purchases so far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312326 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 04:25:05 +0000 Rosie Girl 312326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A crib and changing table set, and the video monitors. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312324 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 04:23:47 +0000 T.H.O.U. 312324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally love high end baby stuff! It's not practical but I wish we had nice baby furniture. I got a nice stroller (b ready) and nice car seats. I love my ergo and that was a big splurge. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312271 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 00:08:10 +0000 Mrs. Pen 312271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@scg00387: yup those one!! I love them. They're so cute!</p> <p>@anonysquire: lol yeah not sure if even bumpers would aid in that?? I wonder what your friend does. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312265 Wed, 26 Sep 2012 23:42:46 +0000 immabeetoo 312265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cocobee do you mean the knit ones?? I love those! i just saw identical ones at our tjmaxx for $50 .. and target sent me some coupons that advertised they'll have something similar this fall (but I don't see them on the website)</p> <p>I think the only thing I'd change for dream baby gear would be a custom glider and a really nice, antique dresser ... and the Boon high chair! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312259 Wed, 26 Sep 2012 23:22:33 +0000 anonysquire 312259@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: I guess you are right.

I am in love with it! I don't know the brand but it is gorgeous, like the kind of thing you would imagine in a castle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-on-your-dream-baby-gear-list#post-312242 Wed, 26 Sep 2012 22:46:38 +0000 Arden 312242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you had an unlimited budget for baby gear, what are the items you would get?<br /> For me, it would be Stokke products, hands down. The Sleepi crib, the changing table, the Tripp Trapp high chair, and the Xplory stroller. </p>
