I hope this question is not too personal but how do you fund your diaper bag addiction? I have a small diaper bag addiction.....I think I own about 6 bags but my most expensive was a bit over 100.00. If DH would let me I would honestly buy a new bag each month. I know some people buy and then sell/trade bags on the diaper bag swap board. But I really don't want to part with any of my bags right now. I am really wanting an alpha 7 but I cannot forsee any justification for one. I got my kecci a few months ago and I have been happy with it but I want/need something new in my collection. Please share any secrets. :) Christmas seems so far away!

First of all, I look for awesome deals...
If I see something I really want I will search until I find a bargain...
I will never pay full price, I just cant afford to.
Second,if I dont like it, I sell it.
I had a Fleurville MS and it looked to big so I sold it. Then people started talking on this board, and I missed it, so I bought it again...now, it is FS on ebay, because it is too big for my needs...
I also sell quite a bit of things on ebay to fund stroller and diaper bag purchases. I can use my paypal money any way I choose...
Thats how I do it!

Same with me. 1) I try not to pay full price. I paid full price on one bag, bought my Fleurville MS on Ebay + just bought a Skip Hop w/a 20 percent off coupon + 14 dollar credit=$26 at BuyBuyBaby. 2) I try not to get sucked into coops unless it's for something I really wanted prior to the coop 3) I sell on either Babybags or Ebay. I usually view the Paypal money as spending money though sometimes I transfer it into my savings account.

I have 4 bags but something goes to get the new one. I also spread out the purchases and just plain old save. Oh, lately I am selling on ebay. More for a digital camera but thinking about the red mothershipif they do away with the black interior. Ick
