I envy friends who received hand me downs... I know that they have saved a lot from these and that they can spend on other items, other than what they would originally spend for.

I, on the other hand, haven't received any yet. Nieces from both sides of the family are very much older already. Zoe is already 8 years old while MJ is 5. All their previous things were already given away. Some of my friends have given birth this year too, that is why most of them are still using their stuff. The only blessing is that I get to buy new items (thanks Mom for the cash gift ). Being kuripot, I prefer buying during sale periods. I usually wait for the scheduled sale/promo days so that I can get discount. I also prefer buying in bulk so that it can save me more. So far, I think I have already bought most of the items baby Gwenks needs.

Today, we plan to buy the sterilizer and baby's beddings. I just analyzed this morning that we missed buying these things. We hope to buy later in the afternoon, after going to Pacita for our laundry... and after tatay finish working on his project, this time he's trying to create tv stands and cabinets for the kitchen.
