I personally like to save where I can. Who doesn't? Even if I was rich I think I would still be on the hunt for a good deal. That's why, today, I am feeling so satisfied. I just got 5 onesies, 2 pairs of pants, 3 outfits, a step stool and a potty chair for $40!!

There is a consignment store near my house that sells gently used or new items for practically nothing. There are toys, clothes, strollers, cribs, swings etc. for kids all ages. You can take your things there and sell them but they are very picky with what they choose.

They have a punch card, so after you get a certain amount of punches you get 20% off. They punch your card for anything you buy OR sell! (No, I don't work for them and I'm not getting paid for this advertisement) :)

Check out there website. They have locations in almost every state and Canada!

Once Upon A Child

I can't stand it when car seats and strollers get littered with snack crumbs. Or have you ever been on a walk or better yet, a grocery store and your child accidentally drops the bag of snacks? UGH!

I was shopping the other day and came across this nifty "Snack Catcher" (that's really what they call it). It's made by Munchkin. It allows your child's hand to reach in to get the snacks but if you turn it upside down nothing falls out. It's been a life saver. I paid $4.99 for it at Safeway. Get it! (Now we just need a solution for sticky fingers).

So far this is the best money I have spent all summer. This pool was $10 at Walmart. I highly suggest it. If not for your kids, then for your feet while you read a book during nap time!
