What a Deal!

I don't have anything insightful to share this week. However, I did get another great deal from Kijiji. Let me share. After all, sharing is caring, right?
This 3 piece lot cost me $35. The Baby Gap Warmest Snowsuit is brand new and retails for $79.99 (which is totally ridiculous, by the way). It has removeable mittens and booties, and I like the little ears on the hood.
 
I have mentioned my love for spreadsheets, so it's no surprise that I have one to keep track of all my baby costs. So far, the only item I have bought new is the Soybean Mattress from Tummies to Tots. (see my post: Organic Baby Crib) A mattress is one item I don't believe you should buy used. I estimated the retail cost for some of the items.

Valco Stroller (w/accessories) 265.00 565.00 300.00

Check out those savings! Pretty good I have to say.
