Re: UK ladies, help in shopping!!

Queen, my son was born on 13th Jan .. and I shopped for him in the last week of December :)))) Christmas sales yaar , they are awesome ..

Dont listen to people .. wait for the right time .. and you will get excellent quality stuff from these big branded retailers .

Though what you can do is , keep taking rounds to your nearest mothercare store and matalan and babies R us .. dont buy anything unless its on a really good value .. but sometimes they want to clear stock and they do put up some awesome stuff on good rates ..

For example, in the new year sale , last year, we got a set of 6 bodysuits from Mothercare .. really cheap .. they are usually priced at £12 .. we got it for £5 , we bought three sets , and believe me that was the best shopping we did !

We picked up stuff for various ages , not only for 0-3 months .. also dont go mad shopping .. coz the first month the size will change quickly. What we did was bought , a set of bodysuit and a set of sleep suits in First size from George . Then waited for baby to come along. When he did , we checked the size was correct on him and husband got a few other body suits from asda as well !

and from them on, we keep an eye and keep buying stuff ( i already have two awesome fleece for him , for when he turns two in Shaa Allah ) .. from next ! and we get all this stuff on bargain ..

My friend had a baby girls reccently she bought all her stuff in the second trimester and you know what , none of the clothes fit the baby , she is so tiny and she has had to go do her shopping again ! so you can wait until deccember sales for sure !

Thanks for being so helpful.
