Triple stroller

I have 2 y/o twins and a 7 m/o. I want to get a triple stroller to go for walks around the neighborhood. I would love one that is side-by-side so nobody is left out with the view. However, everyone is telling me I should get the tandem versions in case I want to go to a store. I will 1000% say I will never go to a store alone with 3 small children.
1) What would you do - get what you want (my MIL is actually buying it for me up to $1,000) or go with what everyone says?
2) Do you own a triple stroler that you like?

I have other strollers - 2 single umbrella strollers, a double tandem stroller, a full-size single stroller still in the box from my shower, and a snap-n-go frame for the baby used now.

Re: Triple stroller

tripletmom posted a pick of her triplets in a side by side. I would go with that over the tandem. Imagine turning a corner in a store with the tandem triplet stroller! Never happen. I looked at the tandem triplet stroller when I was pg with 3. It was like a train!!! The double snap and go is bad enough!


ETA - her post is below about the stroller. I did a little search for you and they have the stroller on Amazon and it's onl y $389! I paid more for my double!

Re: Triple stroller

I would get the triple side by side for the neighborhood walks that is what I have. I never go to stores alone with all 3 so I aslo have a double side by side and a single... I have a pic in my album I bought the stroller off ebay for just under 500 bucks and LUV it.... Yes its big but so easy to push and not heavy to push....
