Morning lurvlyloz, that's a great baby bargain. I managed to buy 2 tommee tippee dummies for 32p at Aldi at the weekend but that's all recently.
We have to wait until Wednesday to find out for definite if we're having a girl. When is you're scan?
Can you knit/crochet/sew? I'm currently knitting a baby cardigan which looks adorable.
I have saved some money this month for baby things so I won't go over budget when I find out what we're having hopefully :rotfl::rotfl:TOTAL DEBT £12,212.46/£2000 paid offDebt Free Goal September 2017#106 Emergency Fund £482.53/£10000 -
Hi Lurvlyloz,
Thought I would let you know Asda are having their Baby Event from Thursday 18th April. I normally find this one better than Tesco as I prefer their car sears and other equipment. If you sign up to the Asda Baby Club, they're sending pre-event emails out with special offers before Thursday.
Hope thats helpful

How exciting. I can't wait to find out what you're having :j. How are you feeling? I'm panicing about our debts and trying to rearrange our mortgage to repayment. I always try to do too much at once

Keep an eye out for anything big at the asda event as they normally reduce them at the end of the event. I bought a car seat for £25 for DS but my friend managed to get the same one for her DD for £15 as she waited a week :rotfl:. I'm trying to control the urge to buy lots of girls things, I MUST wait until Wednesday :rotfl:
Knitted clothes are gorgeous and much needed when our little ones are past newborn stage.TOTAL DEBT £12,212.46/£2000 paid offDebt Free Goal September 2017#106 Emergency Fund £482.53/£10000 -
