     Topic: Bumbo Seat     Posted: 02 December 2008 at 10:29pm |

   Does anyone know if any of the major retail chains sell Bumbo seats (ie Baby Factory, Baby City or Baby Star)?
 
 I'd quite like to get one and I know you can get them on Ferrit (10% off at the moment too), but I was wondering if possibly I could get one post Christmas at a cheaper price?
 
 I am in Wellington....

   Hi Laurie - I have got one similar to the Bumbo but a different brand. Sophie has outgrown it now and I was thinking of selling it. It  is in very good condition as she didn't use it much in the end. Just trying to remember the brand. I will post again if I can did it out of my mummy brain     
PM if you are interested. I am in Wellington too.

   I ended up getting mine off Ferrit too.  Had a look on Trade Me for ages but at the time no one was selling them in Wellington and it was going to cost too much on postage to send so it was more worthwhile buying brand new.  They seem to hold their value when re-selling so that is good to know.

   Awesome awesome seats I just love mine.  McKenzie was in his from 3 months old, he is now 7 1/2 months and I still use it from time to time.  Great to take in the car and feed him it it if at a friends who hasn't got a highchair.  Highly recommend them to everyone.

   I loved our bumbo too!! I know in Dunedin you can get them at this little boutique baby shop, but I got ours off TradeMe before I knew you could get them there.

   We got ours in Oz, I    them. The gremlins didn't sit unassisted till 8 mths so they were really handy when we were out and about and now we're using one for lil miss and have lent the other to a friend.

   In Wellington you can get one through Jane Knackstedt at Baby on the Move, she's in Lyall Bay,  ph 04 977 6361 or 021 0230 1396,  wellington.south@babyonthemove.co.nz 
 
 Don't quote me on this but I think they're about $99 with tray, $89 without?
 
 I really love the Bumbo too, money well spent!

   Thanks guys! Managed to get one off Ferrit when they had 10% off everything.
 
So feel happy I got a little bit of a discount!
