Looking for a pushchair (Maclaren or similar) for a good price

Options
Hi everyone,

I'm hoping that someone has come across any good bargains for a pushchair in any of the sales or online.

I'm looking for something like a Maclaren Quest as my little one has just turned 2 and I need something with a largeish seat for her.

Would prefer something with 4 wheels rather than 3 as my current urban detour is a bit big to bump up and down the front steps of my house! lol

Any ideas on prices and where to buy would be great as my searches have been limited at finding a bargain:o

Thanks in advance x
Dear Lord,
I pray for wisdom to understand my man, love to forgive him and patience for his moods, because Lord, if I pray for strength, I'll beat him to death.:mad: :rotfl: :mad:

  • i have the mothercare jive stroller, which i think is a very good buggy, its 34.99 and the accesories to go with it are 15.99 which include the hood, rain cover, seat cover and a matching bag. they do it in blue or pink. i have the pink one which is really bright but i really wanted one as i was so proud of getting a baby girlie! i just had to have it . Its great for going to the shops and fits in the car and can lie back when they are sleeping.



    heres it here

    Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming ~ WOO HOO what a ride!

    kiddicare.com is usually pretty good for cheap buggies. i brought from them several times with no problems.

    that one is under 50quid. they have some others for under 30 but they dont have raincovers but im sure you could pick one up cheap enough.
    It only seems kinky the first time.. :A

    Argos are doing a Mamas and Papas aria for only £69.99 and it includes cosy toes , changing bag and raincover..
    It was one of their WOW offers at £99.99 which was a good deal then but at this price its a bargain

  • Thanks for your replies, the jive buggy looks great once the accessory pack is added although it's out of stock online - I'll check my local mothercare tomorrow and see if they have it, and if it suits her!!

    Kiddicare looks good, just having a look through it now.

    I did consider getting the aria as it's a bargain with all the accessories, but I think it may be too small for her now that she'e 2, which is a shame as it's a great buy.

    Hi, try asking on here:
    http://boards.babycentre.co.uk/n/pfx/forum.aspx?_requestid=670137&webtag=bcUKBuyForBaby

    It's a great forum full of expert mums! There's many pramaholics on there who will know all the bargins out there.

    When my eldest son was about 2 I had the micralite which is the best stroller I have had, Kiddicare or Glasgow Pram Centre are usually the cheapest and I can throughly recommend them both.

    Makro and Costco both have pushchairs in at the moment, but I couldn't tell you what they are.
