I need a clear out what to keep ?

Am writing this as much for myself to work through as anything but any thoughts would be appreciated.
I seem to have a lot of buggies.
The Stokke Xplory
The mountain buggy
A Bertini with a broken wheel
and a Brand new Bugaboo bee plus still in it's box.
Not to mention a Silvercross Balmoral and a mamas and papas buggy thing.

So I need something to nip into school with, for holidays and days out, for that I was thinking the bee would do the trick.
I also need something for when we walk into town in the summer and the Bertini if fixed and the Silvercross would be great for that.
Which leaves me wondering when i'll use the Stokke even though I love all the features and it is so comfortable and the mountain buggy.
I've considered selling them but I think I'll loose too much money on them, both were expensive.
Would I be better selling one of the others, the Bertini was cheap and maybe the bugaboo could go back ????

Thought you may have had second thought :) Sell the xplory Grin I do think at 7 months though you may miss having a parent facer!!!

I still haven't got round to taking a picture, sorry.
The Bertini is a rear facer if I can get around to fixing it and build up my muscles to pick it out of the car it would be all I needed.
But not all I want Grin

I know that feeling!!! At the moment I have multiple buggys of everything I have Blush The ones I use regularly are the cams, bee+, xplory, mylo, mountain buggy if off road!! I am WELL into double figures though. It is so hard to know which to keep as they all have their plus points but I do think about all the wasted money every time I get the credit card statemenT!! The common sense answer would be to send the bee back if you can do without it but they are fab 'car buggys' and they hold their value well so could sell on for not too much of a loss?

Bloody hell shatteredmumof5 I feel much better now, I haven't given in to getting a Cam as well Grin I may print that off and keep it for whenever I feel too guilty.
My trouble is the car needs £1k spending on it and I look at all these prams and think I don't want a car I want the prams but the older DC's like their comforts :(

I know, I take things to extremes!! I dont drive so dont have that expense but have been known to sell a buggy or 2 to make up the mortgage payment if Ive spent too much that month. They are kind of like my pension fund!!! It is an expensive habit though :)

I need to sell off/give away some of my collecion to make it easier to sell my house as i've run out of cupboards...I'm keeping my Bee Plus, Cameleon, Brio Go, M&P Nuna, Graco Citisport for my parents and Maclaren Superdreamer for the in laws...Going to sell Quest and Pop and get a Maxi Cosi Mila, after i've tested one out in JL...Then sell my P&T Smart, my Frog (though easier to push than Cam) Prob end up giving away the M&P Aria and Freestyler...Plus one more for the tip...If only i had a big house with space to keep them all!!!

Keep the bee plus for the car/town/holidays/everyday use and the mountain buggy for off road, pushing very heavy bigger kid. no need for the others. there's your £1,000 (including the silly stokke).Sorted.

MonkeysPunk · 19/01/2011 12:29

or sell the lot and get a Cameleon instead. Plus the snow wheels for any off road use. That's right, one buggy only!

clumsymumluckybaby · 19/01/2011 23:02
