Today, I ill-advisedly went to the same consignment sale twice. The SuperKids Resale consignment sale happens twice a year (spring and fall). I went last year and bought a bunch of furry sleepers for next winter. This year, I went looking for a few things and came home with mostly clothes. Today was the presale. I got to go at 2pm as a consigner (I consigned most of my maternity clothes). I had also registered for the new first-time parent presale, so Mike and I were able to go back this evening.
We wanted a few more newborn zip-up footie PJs. We like them better than the snap ones because they're easier to close. I'm not sure who thought it was a good idea to put 15 snaps up the front of a infant outfit - they wiggle and I mismatch the snaps without fail. I ended up looking for stuff in 3-6 months sizes for this summer. We should be totally set for clothes until fall (and probably we're set for then as well, depending on how fast she grows).
The Best Buy of the Day goes to the battery-powered swing that we got for $12. I was looking at them and was leaning towards this nice furry one with hanging animals on a mobile. It had all sorts of settings and looked really cozy... but it was $90. Since we aren't sure she'll even LIKE a swing, I was hesitant to spend that much money. Mike and I perused the other swings and found one for $12. It doesn't have nearly as many settings and it's not nearly as comfy-looking... but it's only $12, so if she hates it I won't feel bad. I wiped it down with clorox wipes and threw the cover in the washing machine. We'll try it out tomorrow.
We also got some other misc including a plug-in bottle warmer for the car, some 8oz glass bottles, and an electrical plug cover.
Total spent: $80
