Babies "R" Us...Heaven or Hell?

So yesterday, i had to go to David's Bridal to pick up my dress for the wedding. It just so happened that there was a Babies "R" Us right across the parking lot from the David's Bridal, so i thought..."hmmmm, let's go there!" My first mistake. We went over to the store, thinking we would look around, maybe pick up our diaper bag, and then hit the road. My second mistake. I try to avoid baby stores, at least until after the shower, but walking in there was like walking into heaven! There was everything you could ever imagine, and all at such reasonable prices (compared to other places at least). That's what makes it hell, as well as heaven. We proceeded toward the diaper bags, and were soon swimming in an olympic sized pool of different bags. There were so many to choose from, and every color you could think of. Big one, small ones, black ones, blue ones, pink ones, green ones, ones with changing pads, ones with bottle insulators, ones with hooks to strap it to the stroller. My head was totally spinning. Frank of course, went right for the most expensive kind. We had agreed that we would find 2 reasonably priced ones, that way we could each have our own (he doesn't want to carry a "girly" one, and i don't want a backpack one). Needless to say, we were looking for about 25min and had to walk away and come back. It's like staring at the sun, you have to look away so you'll be able to see ANYTHING ever again! We went back to check out prices for diapers and formula. I get coupons in the mail on a regular basis, and i wanted to see if it would be worth it to drive all the way out there to get stuff, or if it would just be cheaper to get the same things at WalMart. With the coupons, it was only about $1-2 cheaper than WalMart, so i think if i'm out there i'll get the stuff, if not i won't make a special trip. But, we did manage to find some wipes that were very cheap, so we bought 2 diaper bag cases (one for each of us) and one for the changing table that is refillable. Frank also found disposable changing pads, on sale, 24 for $1.50 (let me explain quick why we got these...the diaper bag he got doesn't have a changing pad included, so we wanted something small to fit inside, so we found those on sale and scooped up a bunch of them so he has them...they are usable for other things as well, like burping, wiping stuff up, etc, so they are multipurpose). We also got a box of the pre-made formula bottle. They had the 2oz size that WalMart doesn't have, so we thought that would be great for the first little while. We also bought a ring and nipple to go with the formula, and some infant q-tips...all of which were on sale. Then, we went back to the diaper bags. Frank decided on the one he wanted, even though they didn't have the exact color he wanted, he was still happy. I decided on a really cute one that was in a, like, value pack. It was a large diaper bag (Frank suggested i get the larger of the bags i was looking at, since i tend to overpack ALL the time), and there was a small diaper bag, and there was an insulated bottle carrier, and there was a changing pad and a dirty clothes sack...all included in one "value pack" for a very cheap price. I almost couldn't turn it down. So i got it. I got it in a nice, more neutral color too, so i can use it again. All in all, i was pleased with what we got there, and that we didn't buy more. We had to leave before i wanted to buy more. We'll be back though, we'll be back.
