Tandems?

[mscarder]

I've come to the conclusion that all tandem double strollers suck... like theres no "you can have it all" tandem. Something has to give. I NEED a tandem for shopping where we live. Should I just get a cheap one like a graco ready2grow as it will do the job and then sell it as soon as I dont need a double and get a nice single again or is something like the baby jogger city select worth the extra? Are they're any between the 150-600$ range that I should consider... such as a contours one or chicco?

I know a few people that have the contours double and are happy with it, but I don't think they're stroller obessed like me . It is nice,but it's very large, and the seats are kind of small, but those aren't concerns for everyone. Would you consider buying a used tandem? then you can get a higher end one for less, then when you're ready to sell you'll get a higher % of your money back. There's nothing wrong with getting a lower price stroller, but if you're not thrilled with it in the store, you're going to hate it once you have to use it. For me, personally, I'd be happier with the contours than the graco. but I'd be even happier with the city select. Just depends on what's important to you, how often you'll be using it, and how much you're comfortable spending

I just scored a Britax B-ready on NBD for 200$ with shipping!! So I think thats a great deal considering re-sale value. My son is 21m old and very petite so I think he'll fit in the second seat well. Plus the main seat on the b-ready is supposed to larger than the city select which means it'll last longer for my youngest as a single. I'm hoping I'll be in love with it....oh and I also picked up my youngest a cowmoo marathon for 110$!!

So with the stroller plus second seat, any accessories I want/need for it, and the carseat I'm still under what the City Select would've cost! That should make DH okay with all the UPS packages right?

You had a great day on nbd.com! Congrats and have fun once your packages arrive! I think you will love your b-ready!

Did you remember to use the code of the week "steal it" for an additional 10% off? If not you should be able to call back and explain you forgot to add it on and they should adjust your price!

Yes I did!! I even scored my sister an Ergo organic for 55$ for her new baby! I showed my husband the website and he thinks its great that I saved so much now he wants to buy a grill from there!

awesome day for you! nbd hasn't been great lately, you really scored! Enjoy the packages and just show your dh the retail price added up vs what you paid, that usually works..

Wow! I looked on there yesterday and didn't see that! When the ergo comes just double check its not a fake. I know somebody got a fake that somebody must have returned as real. NBD would fix it of course. I ordered a water table and remote control cars and a doll house recently. Love that site!

I'm sure it's somewhere here, but can someone tell me what nbd is? Nbd.com didn't yield any shopping sites.
