We all have to make a lot of decisions when it comes to purchases for your home and offspring. For those having to work with a budget how do we get the best quality, practicality and healthy products?
For me, I understood that if I limit cloths to second hand choices/consignment and also made bulk purchases on-line I could get everything I wanted. I was able to save significantly then use the savings towards a "discount" on the expensive items. But often what many perceive as expensive... is relative. For example the Stokke brand seems expensive...but I don't have a car so a stroller that makes my life easier and allows my baby to sit higher closer to me was worth the expense...more on that when I review Stokke's products.
