Wanna help me brainstorm ways to raise money

For the car seats I want? :whistle: I can do what I want as long as I fund it myself. The only one that "needs" a new seat is Kaleigh Grace and even that can be put off for another 1" of torso height. ;)

DS wants clek booster. He's newly 9 and "too old for a baby seat now". lol The TB makes his legs go numb so he's got a legit complaint.

I'd like Radian XTs, with or without the SL for the little two, and Abigail would like a new booster. I'd like to see her harnessed, but I really don't have room for another harnessed seat other than a Radian and I can't justify the expense for the time she'd be in it. Possibly a Frontier if it will fit next to the Radian. She's in a crimson PW next to a FF marathon right now and it's a pita to buckle. She wants a "girls rock" Turbo booster. :rolleyes: Not a need at all though.

The other alternative is to put Abigail back in a 5pt (Radian) in the center of the 3rd row so I can rf Kaleigh and Caleb next to each other in the middle row.

The price for 3 Radians XLSR's and the Clek for Gabe is $845 with the coupon code at diapers.com right now. :eek: I could put it on a credit card, but I'd rather not.

Here's what I have that I could sell. 2005 MBUD, not sure what I'd get for that. Kaleigh's BLVD. I think it's an 2009, but I'll have to check. I have 2 extra Marathon covers that I'd really like to keep, but I'd sell if I had to, Ashley and Freedom. Ummmm, a combi double stroller, some cloth diapers... Do you think I could do it in 9 days? And I'm struggling with selling the MBUD. It's my favorite stroller ever, but my babies are growing and I hardly use it anymore. *sniff* But, but, but, I might need it some time... lol

WWYD?

Do you have time to ge ready for a garage sale Saturday? If so, outgrown kids clothes go really well even non name brand items. Toys that no one loves as well. I would price the blvd on craigslist along with the other big ticket items.
Other than selling stuff, could you do a child care thing for several familes, sort of like a moms day out where you offer to keep a few kids who are out of school for 4 hours or so at the pool so the moms can run errands or whatever.
Lemonade stand or bake sale could go over well depending on your neighborhood.

I was going to say garage sale as well. I've always had great luck getting rid of stuff that way, and making money. Kids stuff like toys/clothes/shoes seem to go really well. And if you can't sell the higher priced items there as well (which you most likely won't) you can try craigslist...so pretty much just echoing what PP said, she and I think alike I guess;)

I wish. I'm a student. No free time to speak of. Even getting pics for CL will be pushing it. :p Or i can wait until financial aid comes in in Sept and use some of that for seats....
