where are the best value Gro-bags

[EmmaKateWH]

Anyone know where the cheapest place to buy a gro-bag is? They all seem to be full price on mothercare/john lewis etc at between £25 and £30 - surely there is somewhere to get them cheaper than this? Any tips much appreciated/

I should have added that I want actual gro-bags - I know you can buy cheaper alternatives in some places.

TK Maxx sometimes have them for around £12-15 worth checking your local one out :)

good tip - thanks

Definitely Tk Maxx, ours always have them in, proper Gro Bags in a variety of colours. I always go to TK Maxx for presents when somebody has a baby, they have such nice things in.

Why do you specifically want gro-bags? I use alternatives, is there something wrong with them?

I would question why you want a "gro-bag" specifically - there isn't anything better about them! I loved the Vertbaudet ones, and you can often get a really good deal if you apply voucher codes.

Thanks for the TK maxx tip. Went today and got one for £12.99. I now have three for 0-6 month size - do you think three is enough to keep you going or do you need more than that?

I knew people would come on and berate me for wanting a real grobag!! I am reliably informed that they are the best, plus they come with the FSIDS endorsement, so that's the brand I am going for.

3 is fine, I have 2 and its fine. You might want a different tog depending on season though. I would thoroughly recommend the 0.5 travel gro-bag - I have the 6-18 month one and it's done both my boys from 3-24 months so is a good investment to cover a few summers.

(BTW I would question your source for the 'grobag' is the best thing, sounds like expensive advice)

Just curious about why it's 'the best thing.' What exactly is different/better about them? I'm not being awkward, I'm just genuinely curious as i've used various alternatives for my 1 year old and not had any problems but obviously would like to know if there is something concrete safety wise to this.

definitely tk maxx. i much prefer grobags as they last much better than other brands we have had, plus it's hard to find others that have the travel bit, which is a must imo.

Sorry off topic..

Can someone please tell me what's so different about the travel bit? Grobags are sleeveless, so why can't straps go on as normal?

TIA

Bit of strap between legs would make it a tad uncomfy around the groin.

Erm I hadn't even thought about that bit! Haha. Thank you :D

Agree TK MAxx. Avoid makes where there are poppers on the shoulders. Makes life very easy for the determined escapologist
