Wow. That's great. I haven't been able to find any deals that were that good a my target (not like I need another seat), but for that price I would probably buy it anyway.

I wish I could find one. I'm trying to figure out ways to get a 40 pound 2 year old a hwh seat. The parents can barely afford the $10 to buy a backless booster and they have no headrests in the backseat locations in their vehicle. If only I could find some amazing deal I could buy the seat with my own money and give it to the boy... I keep checking my walmart and haven't seen any car seat on sale.

WOOT! That is SO awsome! I wish I would find an EFTA for $35 as I would SO buy it just b/c! I would more than likely wind up giving it to a friend! I LOVE my EFTA!

That is awseome!!!!!! I got an ETA at target for 33ish dollars earlier this month and my son loves this seat. He chooses this seat over his FPSVD and Evenflo chase.

You are going to love it!

oh i used it today and i do love it. so much better then the regular evenflo triumph i have. i thought it would be the same but they changed quite a bit on the seat. the shells are slightly different shaped, the latch is so much better (it wasn't attached on the original and you could just slide the thing around). i also love that it was so much lighter in weight then the original. that thing was impossible. glad i gave it a shot.
just curious...i used a seatbelt install today because the latch connectors in my step fathers lexus were too close together that i couldn't get it to tighten enough. no big deal to me but has anyone else had a problem like that

YAY! So glad you're feeling the ! I also mine! It is such a great seat & my son has tons of room left in it that I bet he will get to 4-5 in it easy! I have never installed it any other way except with the seatbelt. I find it so easy to use the seat belt that I am not sure I would install it with LATCH if I could! Anyhow...glad you like it! Happen to have any pics to share of your DD in it??

i didn't get any but i it so much i was thinking about trying it out in my minivan for the week. dd looks less squished then in her ma. the sides slope more so she can put her legs out better. besides i have a car seat addiction...my husband says i have a car seat fetish

OOH I am so jealous!! I love my EFTA and want another one but don't have the money to spend regular price. I would buy another one in a heartbeat at that price or even for a little more $$$.

OMG! I agree with the leg room! My DS has SOOO much more leg room in the EFTA than he does his MA! He just generally sits frog legged in the EFTA, but sits with his legs funky in his MA!
