My blog title now has me singing bloody ABBA. Not that it's a bad thing. Love a bit of ABBA. YOOOOUUU CAN DAAAAANCE, YOOOUU CAN JIIIIIIIVE! Absolute banger.
Enough of the babbling.
As you may know, I am reet Yorkshire. One of the traits of being a proper Yorkshire lass is loving a bargain (aka being a tight arse with yer money ha)
Sooooo you can imagine my excitement when i hit up the local mum2mum baby sale this weekend. The name "mum2mum" annoys me because it's not just mum's that are involved in raising a child - there's dad, friends, grandparents, aunties, uncles, etc. But that's probably not going to be a catchy business name so I get it. Sorry, another babble.
I got all this for £7! 9 items for £7! That's less than 80p per item!
The Minnie Mouse outfit (I bloody love Disney) brand new is £15! So I'm £8 up already. And I can't be arsed to find out how much the other stuff cost but let's say I've saved a crap-tonne.
As well as saving a crap-tonne (lol I just wanted to say crap-tonne again) I like to think it's also a way of helping the environment. And I'm helping out other parents. And it takes the sting out of being on stat mat pay (£145 a week int a reet lot) It's just a win all round.
I get that it's tempting to buy stuff all brand new but the little buggers just grow so quick it's really not worth forking out for stuff that they'll only wear once/poo all over. That's just my take anyway.
