£50?! where are you shopping?

I've got this one hereand it's worth the £28 I paid for it in my opinion (is now £31)

I have two, and they are fab!

They are nice but not great for a cold winter. I have just bought this and its so bloody toasty that I quite fancy crawling in it myself. Not the prettiest thing, granted, but it will do the job much better than a buggysnuggle imo

Mine was OK but DC grew out of it quickly and hated having thair legs restricted.
And it is a Pain to fit to the P&T

Thanks for your help they just looked so snuggly i don't want it too hot tho for when going into shops etc, I do alot of walking. Ican't decide whether to just get the p&t one. just wanted to 'jazz it up' a bit

If you look on the website and click on 'sale room' then follow the link, they have quite a few lovely designs at a reduced price, like £20 or £29 etc.

I'd not pay £50 unless I was rich but then I do like the starry red ones

I have got the dark grey shaggy one and it is very nice - had the sheep one too from ebay and sold it.

The only prob with them is no zip at the side (sheep one), so you might find it hard getting infant in and out iyswim.

Some have zips and some don't.

nicolamumof3 · 24/08/2008 07:43

thanks for that, i need a zip on it as I like to zip off and use as a liner. i've been on the snunkie website too, they do a nice grey sheep one which would go with my charcoal p&t!

Both my two dds loved the buggysnuggle I had, a furry one. Kept them warm, dry and snug. Worth it, imo.

Try your local NCT or nearly new sales. I managed to pick a £50 buggysnuggle for £1!! I had to query i'd heard correctly! Worth a shot, they are very useful in winter.

MegBusset · 24/08/2008 20:19

There are always loads on eBay. We've got two, one I got from the sale section of the Buggysnuggle website for about £30 and one from eBay for about £20. They are very nice.

Naboo · 24/08/2008 20:19

Forgot to say, I use my old maclaran one in the back of my phil and tends. It's narrower and thicker, so the little one was so snug, but you could unzip it in shops easily. Hope you find one. I find the cost of £50 scandalous - so it's worth shopping around.

accessorizequeen · 24/08/2008 20:35

I bought the cow one (that fully unzips) for £30 on MN and it was such good quality that it seemed virtually new & will last another child easily. In fact, I'm looking for another one now (dt's on the way)!

MrsJamin · 24/08/2008 21:04

I've got the Faux Suede Black/Silver one for my Maclaren XT- it's lovely and soft inside but I couldn't really use it past May as it looked too hot to put DS in. It was a present - there's no way I would have forked out £50 for a snuggle. However the Techno XT is quite basic so it makes it look more luxorious for DS in the winter. It's very good quality so will last for future DC(s) too.

expatinscotland · 24/08/2008 21:06

wow! i bought one a few years ago and it was only £28.

it's made it through 2 girls and it's fabulous up here - where it's a bit cold.
