There is a "new" store in town. It's a couple who used to own a baby store, but they continue to get "shipments" of stuff. They have moved in DIRECTLY across the street from me. I have bought things from them before (Marathons for $100 new!, Cherry Sleigh Crib for $125 new!, etc etc)

TODAY, they are over there with those adorable motorized cars for preschoolers to ride in/ drive. They have a Jeep for $110!!!! OH MY GOSH!!!

I have no where to put one, but what an incredible deal! Tell me not to. Tell me not to. (But it is a good deal, isn't it?) Aaaarrrrgggghhhh!

It's never a good deal if you don't have anywhere to put it no matter how low the price.

Was your life happy without it? Was it on your wishlist of things you would buy? If not, I wouldn't buy. It might be a god deal but it is still $110 vs $0, kwim?

Back away from the "deal" -- you have no where to put it. It's still $110! (think of how much you can get at Borders next year with that!!), And motorized cars for little kids are nothin' but trouble IMHO!
:nono:

(LOL -- how funny is *that* smiley?! It's called "nono" but it totally looks like he's flippin' someone off!! Absolutely NOT what I was trying to convey!)

Hmmmm I don't know *how* to tell someone not to buy something....but I will say that those motorized cars kind of make me nervous (although my kids did love them when they tried them at a friends').

it really isnt that great of a deal if its a 6volt elec. car. the 12 volts are better, they seem to have more power, im thinking its a 6volt.

Don't do it! They're such space hogs!

Put down your wallet! Walk away! Even for a good price your kids would be so much better off with a pedal car. Which you also don't have room for.

Go put $110 in the kid's college fund. You won't regret it!

Space hogs (sold the pedal car because of this), $$ for battery replacements, less exercise for the kids and if the little girl down the street is any indication, three year olds should not be driving....

Ok, Ladies, you have done your job well. I've resisted and now they are closed! Will come back to this post every time I feel a little weak in the wallet.
