luck for the unlucky

Craig and I aren't usually people who are lucky with anything. But yesterday, since we are both sick just lounging around all day on the computer, discovered that our crib that has been out in the garage for a year was on a recall list. We were able to take it back for a full refund!!! We never had any problems with it, but apparently a few babies got hurt when the slide down side forms a gap somewhere and traps them... It's like a huge deal now and over 600,000 cribs have been recalled...you might want to check on yours if you haven't heard. anyway... so we took back this used scratched up crib I wasn't to happy about having to bring upstairs and clean off anyway, and got over twice what I actually paid for the thing at the time :) It was on clearance and then actually mismarked and we only got it because we moved to moscow and the 13 year old crib didn't make the 3rd move. I was able to use the money to buy a new, much better, clean crib that actually matches our new changing table and I have money left over to buy a bedding set I might go pick up today from someone on craig's list.

New Purchase: crib and mattress for $75
