Re: Getting Ready For Baby Show..

Sorry for crashing...

I went when I was PG with DD and you have to sit through this whole song and dance, they just want you to buy their crib, high chair, table, etc... it's like a live info-mercial. They make it seem like all the popular brands from babies r us will injur your baby. Their stuff is ugly and overpriced.

Just wanted to save everyone the time and aggravation.

ETA: The "gift pack" is just a bunch of coupons that I never used and there are no sponsors, it's just this company.

no thanks!! i was trying to google more info.. i thought it seemed a little "schemy" especially since it didn't list the sponsor on the site.. like i mentioned it made me think of the honeymoon pots and pans sales we would get called for when planning our wedding..

i'm glad to hear it's a sale pitch.. i can pass on it then and just go to the one at milleridge inn..

It is like the pots and pans thing. I'm glad I just happend to wonder into Pregnancy and catch this post.

People actually got up and walked out of the place as soon as the guy started talking, lol. I didn't want anyone else to waste their time going there for the live commercial, lol.

Happy and Healthy 9 Ladies, I hope to be joining you soon!
