Orem/SLC UT Places to shop Boosters?

Hey all! I am heading to Orem this week and it is a substantially larger town than where I live :} I know they'll have more store options than Wal-Mart and K-mart which is what I'm stuck with.

Hoping to try out some booster seats with my kids because they both need them. Any suggestions on places that have a nice range of seats other than BRU? I am particularly interested in Recaro Probooster (which I don't expect to find but a girl can wish right?), Recaro Vivo, Sunshine Kids Monterey & perhaps the Britax Frontier85.

Speaking of frontiers-- My wiggly 6.5yo weighs about 50lbs and is just not a good fit in the GN (the crotch strap is under him even at the longest setting). What do you all think about a well fitting highback booster vs a harness at that point? How well do they help the kids 'stay put'? Or is there another less pricey option than the Frontier? He'll be the last kid to use it and I don't think he'll fit the harness for more than a year at best.

There's a BRU in Orem. You could also go to USABaby in SLC/Taylorsville (I-215 and Redwood). It's a bit farther, but they usually have some less common seats.

Last time I was at USA baby they only had the turbobooster and the combi, I think it was. Be sure to call before going to find out which boosters they do have. Sometimes baby stores put up ads on ksl, so you might find something that way. Otherwise, there's brus and toys r us has some different boosters too.

I know brus and usa baby have the frontier, but good luck finding the recaros and the monterey in a store. I have a couple vivos, though, if you ever want to meet me.

Babinski's didn't have much for boosters last time I was there. I called to see if they would have Cybex and they didn't even know what I was talking about.

Thanks all! I did go to USA Baby and they had a fairly nice range of seats, not everything I was looking for but much of it! They closed earlier than the time stated on their website though and I had to leave before I tried EVERYTHING :D
