I bought a brand new maxi cosi cabriofix car seat from kiddicare.com recently for £59.99 - truly a bargain when they retail at £110. Did get the pushchair frame second hand off ebay though - although there are some good discounts on the frames that can match up with the maxi cosi they are still not cheap so thought best to buy second hand and am really happy with my purchases!0

Mamas&Papas have 30% off on prams,cots,bedding,and more until 2nd November.
I got a lovely pram travel system reduced from £375 to £249 along with cot for £100 and some maternity clothes reduced.
They also allow 25% deposit so you can pay it to suit you,no chrages or anything like that,just spread acrosss few weeks like Mothercare do .0 -
Maxi cosi car seats are great! We went from a britax 1st seat to a MAxi Cosi tobi I can't rate it enough the safeness when fitting it into a car in comparison with hundreds of others we looked at is just perfect!Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists0

You can get an easbase or easyfix (Isofix) base for the Cabriofix car seat - we have it and once you have fitted the base it's just a quick click to safely install the car seat. Much quicker and easier than strapping it in every time.

The cheapest place I have seen the Easybase brand new is from ebay sellers. They should be about £50. hth
Congratulations on your new arrival by the way! I hope mine isn't too far behind now.
