[quote=Anonymous]There’s not enough information here. If you’re comfortable, there is no reason to shop at Walmart— it’s poor quality AND you’re supporting poverty wages. I would (and did) spend on car seat (as someone pointed out it’s the object most likely to save your child’s life...) stroller, and on clothing and feeding options that reflect our parenting preferences (glass bottles, organic clothes, etc.). If you’re on a tight budget I would ask for hand me downs — people are always cleaning closets— and prioritize the car seat. But...I am always a little uncomfortable with men who are cheap on other people’s behalf. When it is something for himself does he shop at Walmart? Does he drive the cheapest possible car? Or is budgeting only for other family members? If he’s cheap with everything it’s time for a discussion of how your family priorities spending. If he’s cheap with only other people...red flag.
