Where can I see BumGenius and Flip in Shops?

[CupcakesHay]

Hi

I live abroad as my husband works for the Foreign Office, but coming home to have our baby (EDD 30 Jan 2011).

I'm home for a month in Sept - but splitting trip between Devon, where my parents live and have about 5 days in London.

I've tried contacting the nappy people at councils in London - but none of their workshops work out date wise for me.

Does anyone know which shops sell Bum Genius and Flip, and other makes so I can have a look and make decision myself?

Or has anyone had the companis come and give them demo? Is it a lot of pressure to buy there and then on the spot???

Thanks for advice,
H

Lollipop do demos and IME there was no pressure to buy on the spot - I was given the agent's contact details and a price list then left to make my decision. I guess it depends on the individual agent though? teamlollipop.co.uk I think.

Babykind do demos too - www.babykind.co.uk

On the outskirts of London, but my local baby shop in South Woodford (on the central line - about 30 mins max from Oxford Circus) sells both BGs and Flips, as well as other types of nappy. You can have a play and see which you like. They also sell Totsbots and Bambinex one-size (I think - maybe others) and all the accessories you would need.

It is called "Sid and Evies" and has a facebook page with the address etc: en-gb.facebook.com/pages/London-United-Kingdom/Sid-Evies/119771418036884

It is about a 5-10 min walk from the tube and is easy to find (its right next to Sainsbury's).

Our shop (Nappy Ever After) sells BGs and Flips and we're in Central London. No pressure to buy - we're a social enterprise - just let us know when you're coming so we can be sure to be there as we do demos in the boroughs on other days.

OOOh - central london's perfect. Are you around on the thurs 7th Oct? Can you give me address?
