Its gonna be FUN ;)
*I got these at a baby second hand store in the area. I paid $4.99 for Coach's froggy costume and $5.99 for Fancy's ladybug costume. For an outfit they'll wear ONCE, I'm ecstatic about those prices. I usually check it out about once a month or once every couple weeks. I tend to spend about $35-$50/visit. This time I bought:
2 long sleeve Children's Place logo shirts (one for each baby)
2 Gymboree sweaters (one for each baby)
2 Carter's outfits-long sleeve shirt and pants (one for each baby)
2 Baby Gap long sleeve logo onesies (one for each baby)
2 Circo (Target brand) long sleeve onesies)
A flower clip for FancyAll for $47
In the past I've gotten never worn shoes (still had the tags), never used Dr Browns bottles (still wrapped), in addition to a buttload of clothes. They sell brand new babylegs-never worn (from the dealer) and handmade bows that I just adore. They make it WAY to easy to have every pair of BL available :) When I'm done, I pick out the pieces I don't want to keep for the next baby and sell them back for $ or credit. They also have a seemingly endless supply of pack n plays, bumbos, strollers, car seats, excersaucers, baby carriers (tons of bjorns and I've seen several ergos) and mountains of books and toys. I've never left empty handed.
I love a bargain and when shopping for clothes for twins, bargains are a MUST. I also tend to find great deals at Children's Place (pretty good coupons and almost always free shipping on their website), TJ Maxx, JC Penney and Target. The last two places I listed have the $5 tables (sometimes less-I got almost their entire 3-6 summer wardrobe at JCP when they marked down their $5 table to $1.50/item, I spent $30 and saved over $100). The clothes are cute and good quality, at least that I've found. Given the limited time they will actually wear each size, I just can't pay $20+ for a single item of clothing. It seems like such a waste. Walmart also has a $2.50/$3 table, but I've only seen a handful of things I liked and they didn't wash/wear all that well. The shorts sucked, but the shirts/onesies did ok.
I should do a babythings review when I have some time. At present, I have two VERY constipated screaming children. Effing bananas.
