I knew I wasn't going to be the type of pregnant lady that enjoyed spending tons of money on baby gear and nursery furniture. But I have to say, I've been pleasantly surprised with how easy it's been to find deals on some "essentials"! I by no means am the expert bargain shopper, but I'm proud of my work so far so I wanted to share.
Dutailier Sleigh Multiposition Recliner Glider and Ottoman with Nursing Stool
Amazing Craigslist find... glider still had the tags on it!
(Retails for around $800, bought for $225... Savings of $575)
Graco Lauren Crib & Changing Table
Black Friday deal at Target... buy the crib get the changing table for FREE!

Fisher Price Cradle n' Swing My Little Lamb
Craigslist find, brand new still in packaging. The lady had received 2 at a shower and I guess wanted to get cash instead of a store credit?!

Sealy Crib Mattress
Target Clearance Aisle, newer model had come in but the ratings were still great on this one

Graco Car Seat Base -- an extra to keep in Kyle's car

Just with the couple things that I mentioned above we have saved $823! One of my favorite bargain blogs devoted to baby gear is: http://babygoodbuys.com (Thanks to Grace!)
Do you have any other recommendations that share great deals?
