Well we just got back from the Perth Pregnancy, Babies and Children Expo at the Claremont showground which took about two hours for us to quickly see everything. We had to leave early but I am sure we could have been there for another few more hours.
So how was it? It was quite informative and interesting with heaps of brands and businesses represented there. The small stores cost just under $2000 to be there which probably was more than worth it for participating businesses. Everyone walked around almost like waving money in the air, ready to spend big on anything from bibs to cots. We managed to buy a three wheeler stroller that we have been eyeing for a while. Going into the show, we saw the Baby Jogger City Mini at some stores for $399 and the best price was Baby Bunting for $329 in their recent catalogue. At the expo, we bought the City Mini for $319 including a cupholder which retails at $30 so we saved a nice $40
Free stuff For those looking to pick up free stuff, Panadol gave away a baby guidebook, a handy night light, baby forehead thermometer and a... piece of cloth? Closer to Nature were handing out free feeding bottles, there were plenty of free antibacterial wipes (guess you can't have enough of those), window shades and fruit puree drinks.
Car Parking costs $5 which was quite convenient considering that it was raining pretty intermittently during the day. If you want to check it out, you still have till 5pm tomorrow to have a look.
