Shopping for Baby Stuffs 1

Though this wasn't the first time that we went around looking for baby stuffs, it was only on Friday that we finally bought quite a number of the big ticket items, like a baby cot, a stroller and a high chair.

Previously, we had been to Kaki Bukit (Baby's Hyperstore & Baby's Kingdom) to view their strollers and cots as a reference as we still did not know what brand or type of items that we wanted. We also went to Giant and NTUC Xtra to look at their baby products. At the same time, we surfed online for more details, mainly focusing on the strollers. Thus, prior to purchase, other than being educated on the numerous brands of baby products that we never knew existed, we sort of confirmed that we wanted a Capella stroller, though we were divided over the model.

In the morning, the baby fair at expo was disappointing as it was on a very much smaller scale than the previous baby fair two weeks ago. It was, however, quite whimsical to have us constantly looking at strollers pushed by other parents and identifying their brands, a habit that we developed since we started shopping for Xiao Xiao's stuffs. The warehouse sale at Chai Chee (Taime Pte Ltd) later on, all thanks to my dear's colleague, was where we committed to our purchases as most of the items were at 20% off. After all, we had been to enough places to know that the prices, without the discount, were more or less the same.

Though the big ticket items will only be delivered in December but at least the major items were settled. Next item on our list: baby carrier and breast pump.
