Yesterday was a looooong day for your dad and mum. Mummy specially took leave to go to the Parenthood Baby Fair at Expo, to avoid the weekends crowds and to avoid the situation of many items going OOS, and also your daddy has to work hard on weekends! It was a long and tiring day for both of us. We started the day pretty early, well, at least it was early for me, at about 11plus and we were out to Wild Honey for Brunch. Very nice brunch they have but daddy says damage to his pocket. You know ur dad always like to say all these but I know he will still bring us go next time, so we just let him grumble abit ya? :p
Show u what you had for the morning's brunch. Big portion and healthy and taste good!!
English breakfast - got potatoes, sausage, bacon, tomato, scrambled eggs, mushroom, big beans and 2 big slices of toasted bread. Alot right??? And I finished everything!!!! Except the bread. Haha... Nice brunch!! We hope daddy bring us more often!!!
Then we proceeded to Expo immediately!! Our plan was to get your stroller and car seats, but we didn't get them in the end still. Later explain why. Tell you about the diapers first. Already heard news that Pampers was OOS. At 2pm!!!! So you know how crazy it was? But we were really blessed and lucky cos we reached just in time for their restocks!!! Happy!!! Know why they got OOS so quickly??
Nah, the price of PAMPERS at baby fair : -
Cheap right!!!!! SWEEP!!! But I didn't get alot too.. Each person was only limited to get 1 set each. So we got you 1 set NB Size, and 1 set S Size. NB size no need to get so much, cos you will outgrow them and S size will be able to fit as well. Since S was from 3kg onwards too.
Had wanted to get either Mamy Poko or Merries for you for the S Sizes. Only had Merries at the fair so I decided on Merries then. And Merries packaging jin swee... (very pretty in hokkien). Haha... And prices for Merries : -
Buy 4 packs of tape diapers n get 1 additional park FREE??! Means 5 packs of sizeS for only $71.80? Only $14.36/ pack! Wow!! 1 piece $0.266. Usual price $0.41/pc. WOW WOW WOW!!! SWEEP!!!!!!
I had wanted to get GOON Diapers for you. In NB Size cos other mummies were saying GOON diapers cutting very big. Ok, I had only wanted to get GOON and Merries, the Pampers were add on cos they were really too cheap to resist. Haha.. Anyway diapers get used up really quickly. And the prices of GOON : -
Usual price of GOON is $30 one pack!!! My goodness!! Very expensive... Must buy during baby fair. 50% discount!!! SWEEP!!!!! I mentioned I wanted NB but the salesperson gave me wrong and I have S instead. Sigh.. Hope you will be chubby chubby then can faster advance to S Size ba... Cos my NB sizes doesn't seem very enough now... Anyway, daddy said singapore very easy, not enough he will go supermarket buy. Ok la, supermarket buy goon really VERY EXPENSIVE. Lobang lobang!!! For GOON diapers, go to www.diapers.com.sg . Selling at $20.90 instead of $30.
Mummy didn't get Huggies brand but the prices at the fair was crazy too!!
1st round of diapers shopping done!! We then walked around and bought other stuffs. Had to get breastpump too. And this was the big item that cost a big hole in my pocket. :( Mummy bought Medela PISA in the end, even though they are going to phase out, I asked and they said no matter what, they have to honour the warranty. And have to change the parts for us if it's spoilt or what. Decided on PISA also because the suction is really better than Freestyle, even though Freestyle was having a really good sale. Daddy also encouraged me to get PISA, he said pump's main purpose is to pump, of cos get one with good suction la. Ok, makes sense PAPA!!!
Got some nursing wear clothes from Spring Maternity again too. 30% discount for 3 items and above, again I couldn't resist to discount.
Also got the confinement shampoos, conditioner and shower gel.
Oh, and I also signed up for Motherhood Magazine at the fair!! It was a REALLY GOOD DEAL I thought. Usual subcription $50, i signed at $50. But there were alot of freebies!! And one of the freebies was the Avent milk storage bottles which could have easily cost $20++? So I signed! Plus I will be updated with news and information too!
Sorry baby, this time round, NO clothes for you. Mummy think you should have pretty enough for now and I should control buying cos mummy's savings is depleting!!! :p
Ok, why we didn't get the stroller for you was because mummy found another place that's selling cheaper. Cheaper than at the fair. For the brand that we want. Oh, and Mummy's changing mind to get Peg Perago Pliko P3 Compact instead of SI cos P3 really looks more comfortable for you. At most I go train up my muscles and carry the stroller lor... Need to check out SI Completo again before final decision. Will be getting from First few years at Paragon. Spring Maternity is selling at $598 at the fair, First few years selling at $499. Savings of another $100! Car seat selling at $649 at the fair, First Few years selling $599. Another savings of $50. So this is the reason why we did not get ur stroller and car seat at the fair. :)
Pictures of my buys!!!
Mummy very free hor? Can you imagine having such a long day and walk for so long, WITHOUT resting, then I reach home, unpack everything from the plastic bags, organise swee swee, take picture. Really very free lor.. Lol!!
And for the freebies during the fair!! Which were quite alot!!
See so many freebies, I'm a happy mama!!! Ok most of them weren't very useful. I only very "gian" the avent storage bottles, free packs of diapers, baby wipes and vitamin sweets. Not bad la!! All free leh!! :)
And for my future reference for all the prices, again I was very free to scan the receipts. Lol.
TOTAL DAMAGE FOR THE DAY: $1,042.92 .
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! Baby, next time when you grow up and see this blog, see how much were already spent even before you were born. Stroller and car seat haven't buy ok!! So please BE A GOOD BOY and study hard, be doctor or lawyer earn many many money and 孝顺你妈妈我!!!!!
Very-Happy-Mama,
Mummy Jo
