Are you comfortable buying second-hand clothes and toys for your LO?

    @PrincessBaby: Oh cool! I googled after I saw this post and I found a listing for that store. I think I'll try and check it out next tuesday, not that B needs anymore clothes!
    There's one by me called consign-a-kid but there wasnt much there. I bought an organic ergo though.
    There are some of the huge consignment sales coming up. Lolliposh & Just Between Friends.

    @wheres_c: I will look into those...My problem is I'm not a "digger.". I'm too impatient, I guess? So large sales like that may not be good forme, lol...I hope you like Will and Emma's...I just remembered the last time we were there they had a couple of pairs of baby True Religion jeans and I totally would have bought them but DH was with me and he's all, "That's ridiculous..". Womp womp!!!! I'll be stopping by there again soon when I go back to work!

    Definitely yes! Well... only clothes. He has more than enough toys I never got the chance to buy him any myself (: Well... his swing and exersaucer were used-that counts, right?

    Yep! Only thing I'd pass on is stuffed animals probably. I'm just as wary about cleaning stuff that's new- kids are always slobbering on stuff in the store even if its new!

    I have a couple consignment shops near me but they are not nice!
    I hit garage sales in nice neighborhoods, I love buying barely used nice clothes for not very much! As for toys I don't mind, but I like to see the house/person they are coming from. Then I take it home, take it completely apart and sanitize the entire thing. I'm talking taking screws and everything apart.

    @PrincessBaby: I'm not really a digger either....I hate TJ Maxx / Marshalls etc for that reason. Sometimes its worth it though.. I feel like theres always cute girl clothes on sale.
    And I totally know what you mean about your DH. I hate shopping with my SO around. I may or may not have bought a calvin klein pajama with my money yesterday, and left it in the car until he went to work today
