Product Description
Book Description
Brightly colored toys, tiny clothes, cases of formula and sturdy strollers all come with a hefty price tag. Even before a new baby arrives, the shopping begins - for necessities (car seat, crib, feeding equipment) and frivolities (fluffy booties, a flotilla of stuffed toys). Leah Severson knows what babies need and what parents desire, and she's done a thorough investigation of how to get the best for less -- in some cases even for free!
Bargain Buys for Baby's First Year will save you up to 50% on:
* baby furniture
* clothing

NOT NECESSARY TO BUY,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bargain Buys for Baby's First Year (Paperback)
If you have the Baby Bargain book by Alan & Denise Fields, YOU REALLY DON'T NEED THIS BOOK. First, it's not as detail as Baby Bargain. Second, the information seems to be outdated because (1) copyright is 2000 and (2)I send in for some info. per author's instruction and I got a return to sender with NO FORWARDING ADDRESS. Third, these type of books should be updated annually since we are looking for the latest information. Companies form, merge, and go bankrupt annually. If the information is not updated, how is it a good guide? I got the book because of all the five stars review I read.

PACKED WITH GOOD INFORMATION AND IDEAS!,
This review is from: Bargain Buys for Baby's First Year (Paperback)
If you want creative ideas on cutting the expense of a new baby, take a look at this book! There are lots of clever substitutions (use puffy fabric paint on plain socks instead of buying the expensive non-skid kind!) as well as been-there-done-that advice on what NOT to buy in the first place. This book will pay for itself over and over, and will save you both time and money all through the first year. I highly recommend it for the kind of helpful advice you won't find in parenting books!

There are lots of clever substitutions (use puffy fabric paint on plain socks instead of buying the expensive non-skid kind!) as well as been-there-done-that advice on what NOT to buy in the first place. This book will pay for itself almost instantly, and will save you both time and money all through the first year.
