It is so nice to see someone not my age thinking along the same line seriously garage sales are the best . Even if you shop on line you will save heaps and with the economy the way it is every cent saved is a dollar in the bank. Hope you go look at my site as you may find many more saving tips there.
That’s awesome that you go soooo many clothes for such a great deal. And I mean seriously! how cute are they! That first outfit you showed I guareented would have cost at least $12.00 if you bought it new. You really lucked out
He must be pretty big by now!
They are all so cute!!!!
Love it! Having my 1st grandchild. In 2 wks. we find out the sex! Can’t wait!I have also been busy going to yard sales and have gotten terrific bargains and many new items, I cannot buy new much b/c why? Most I get for 50 cents in perfect shape{I’m picky!} It’s been fun. I also got the crib and changing table at a yard sale.Hardly used! I got the chest at a thrift store and pd. $63 for it,matches the crib perfectly! We are doing Noah’s Ark and got lamps and pictures and everything!
yes it is fun! i love shopping for baby clothes! mom is having a little boy too! hes coming in August! we are naming him Mathew Andres Cabrera!
It is fun when you can get such a good deal!!
my mom got a BUNCH of baby boy clothes and it was all 8 dollars at a garage sale!
i LOVE garage sales!! VERY cute stuff
@cluelessfather
@jgsky Why didn’t I think of that????
@cluelessfather hahaha, and if I pack myself in the crate, I even save the flight ticket.
@jgsky Well, you could always skydive out of the plane with a crate of BabyGap, which might be funner!
@cluelessfather yeah that’s probably the best way.
@jgsky
So just have all the stuff shipped to a friends house in Germany and drive it over the border! 
Best, Dare
@cluelessfather yeah, it’s really mean. Fortunately, Switzerland isn’t very big, so people could drive to their neighboring countries like France, Germany, and Italy to buy cheaper stuff. I live near the French/German border, which takes me only 10 mins drive to a German supermarket, and the price there is almost half as much as the Swiss one. And since Switzerland recently joint the sort of “free border agreement” with the other European countries, nobody is supposed to check at the border.
@jgsky Hahahaha. I’ll remember that that. Wow, that’s pretty tough though. I guess on one side it’s good for local merchants but on the other it sort of makes it really tough on people who’d like some international variety. However, Switzerland certainly doesn’t seem to have a problem importing money from all over the world.
@cluelessfather which means…if you have a relative/friend who lives in Switzerland, don’t send him a birthday present. He will be very unhappy receiving it. :]
@cluelessfather yeah I know…that’s the bad thing in Switzerland. In order to protect their local industry, they charge VAT for the stuff you receive regardless you mark it as “gift” and “secondhand”. In addition to VAT, they also charge the “admin fee” or “handling fee” for opening and checking your package, and this fee is fixed, about 100 swiss frank (around 100 US Dollars) I heard.
@jgsky wow! They charge VAT for stuff that’s been opened??? That sucks. In Mexico as long as you aren’t planning on reselling it, they don’t really care. Which basically means, no price tags = no problem.
@cluelessfather yeah that’s a much smarter way. Some of my friends used to ask their relatives in the US to send them cheaper or used baby clothes to Switzerland and ended paying higher fee for the VAT/administration than the package itself.
@jgsky believe me I feel your pain. I usually wait until a friend is visiting the US then I buy a bunch of stuff of Amazon and they bring it back with them.
baby clothes in Europe are really expensive!
@spiffyleezy Baby clothes are very cheap in the US even in Baby Gap. But here in Mexico a decent quality diaper suit can cost 400 pesos (about $36 USD) so whenever I go to the US I splurge! Thanks for the comment and have a great day! Dare
sofar the kids clothes ive seen are cheap unless ur tlkn baby gap gymberee however u spell tht lol and childrens place
@cluelessfather oh haha well that makes sense!
@NewYorker014 I know!!!! The funny thing is that in Mexico all the burp clothes are sold as the small square ones, the rounded one was from a friend in the US.
Buying baby clothes is like going to a candy store, so many shapes and sizes and colors and flavors.
But yep, you caught me out on a moment of true cluelessness/idiocy. As a note, we never used it as the square ones were much more convenient.
uhm..
the thing ya didnt know what it was? Well, that would be the burp cloth…
