Where can I get cheap but compatible pram/pushchair accessories?

WibbleWobbles

I'm expecting my second baby and have just snapped up a bargain iCandy pushchair for £100 on eBay. With my first baby I only used a cheapie £20 stroller which I got fed up with, so this time round I wanted to invest in a better one.

Unfortunately it doesn't come with a carrycot, footmuff, or raincover.

Does anyone know where I can get these on the cheap? I did want a carrycot but realistically I could probably make do without it as they're only in it for such a short time. But I'll need a footmuff/cosytoe thingy and a raincover - I don't want to spend £50 on an official one...

Are there unbranded versions of this stuff that would still be compatible with my pram? Or, can I get second hand ones on eBay that are for a slightly different model, would those still fit?

Hope someone can help!

Charity shops. Also worth posting a request on local noticeboards - many supermarkets/DIY stores have boards where customers can put postcards with such requests free of charge. If you're worried about putting contact info in the public domain, use a hotmail e-mail kept simply for this sort of thing; ditto a cheap mobile with a PAYG SIM.
