frugal

Had a lovely day out today, including some time spent at our friends Mike and Anna's house for some gaming and conversation.

Couldn't stay late, though, as we had a free invite to a 'Just Between Friends' event. I don't remember if I mentioned this before, but it's pretty awesome for a new parent - they're a periodical consignment shop entirely about the new parent. We'd already bought quite a lot of great baby stuff from them, but one of the things they're really wizard with is clothing - outfits for 1-4 dollars apiece blows away the prices in the malls. This time we went through and got:

1. A new carseat and base for $15. (I was going to get just the base, but those were $20. Go figure!)
2. A box of about 166 size 1 diapers for $20.
3. About 15-17 outfits, god knows, really
4. A changing table pad to put Rose on so she doesn't roll off downstairs, $4
5. And a little plastic cage to wash baby bottle bits in, for a buck.
