Nothing like overspending on carseats and strollers and such at babies r us. When you can be smart and get them at like target or something for about 100$ cheaper.

No, but most people are better off saving money and buying cheaper when they can and young parents are hardly the exception.

I read a study once that young mothers are more likely be hyper materialistic about their kids than older women. So they often fall into buying expensive items just because they look cute.

A lot of baby things can be found for far cheaper at other stores or second hand through thrift stores or classifieds. I only spent $40 on my crib, instead of $300. So I had $260 to put into savings or spend on other necessities instead.   There's nothing wrong with splurging a little and some things shouldn't be bought second hand, such as car seats, but I never quite got this idea that your basic baby set up/nursery has to cost as much as a US University education.

Oh, I completely agree with you. The sarcasm is the previous post just pissed me off.

I getcha.

I don't want to sound like a tightwad, I just see it a lot. A lot of my friends were so crazy with their money sometimes. Every other week they'd spend $60 on a pair of shoes for their under-1 year old babies (that weren't even walking) and they were on welfare! Then they wondered why they were always short of money to do other things. So silly.

I know! I can't stand that. People spend all their money on superficial shit and then take their food stamps to the grocery store.
