which stroller?

Can anyone reccomend where I can get a low price stroller for a baby that is 3 months.
It will only be used for 3 weeks, so I don't want to spend too much money on it.
Most of the stroller I see are from 6 months.0 -

If you're a member of freecycle, it might be worth posting on there. It could also be worth checking with any local independant retailers as there's one which is local to me which rents out baby equipment0

Mothercare definitely do them and for peanuts. Not all are suitable from 6 months so it's a question of going in and asking which ones are.
Also, unless the baby isn't yours, don't assume you'll only use it for 3 weeks. Once we bought a stroller for our kids, the heavy old pram was very quickly consigned to the garage, as the stroller was just so much easier to fold for the car, take up and down steps, use on public transport, etc. Ironic, given that the pram costs hundreds and was used for a few months whilst the stroller cost less than £50 and was used for about 3 years!0 -
I used the Chicco Winter Stroller when my littlie was just over 3 months (it can be used from birth) and it was fab (i've still got it and she's 2). It comes with a really fleecy footmuff and lays almost flat.

I can highly recommend a Maclaren Techno XT, they are costly, but you can get second hand on ebay for a reasonable figure. Much as you say it will only be used for a little while, whether it is for you or for someone else you know, these are in use for up to 3 years per child, so very well worth getting.
Below is an example, but if you put in Maclaren Techno
XT on ebay you will find loads of choice

Hi there, you'll be hard pushed to get one very cheap for 3m+ however I don't think this: http://www.kiddicare.com/invt/bughckaluflshsrtb?N=373 is too bad at £30 plus P&P (add another £20 to the order with nappy bags etc and delivery is free).
I can't recommend this pushchair personally but I can at least recommend kiddicare. Cr*p customer service if something goes wrong but for the most part, they sell middle-of-the-road brands at bargain prices and little has gone wrong for me personally over the last two years.
If you want any cheaper than £30 for 3m+ I think you need to search for 3m+ makes and models then look for them on ebay.
EDIT: Pmsl, I should have followed the link the first poster provided... In fairness, they didn't give any details or price with their post!!!

Can anyone tell me where I can purchase a cheap stroller for a little girl preferably with a sun canopy attached. I have one but looks a bit tatty as I used it for my son. Want to take it on holiday hence the word "cheap" as it may get a bit damaged in transit although I would hope not! I paid about £14 for my old one from Argos.
Thanks in advance.Hindsight is a wonderful thing0 -
mothercare do some cheap ones in their own brand. Some lovely pink ones if u have a girl too

Look on ebay, you can get the Mothercar ones on there brand new with the hood for about £30.
I have bought a few buggies from there with no probs.0
