Essentials

While shopping for bassinets online I came across this bad boy.

That my friends is a brass cradle you can buy from WalMart of all places. Because when I'm looking to buy a brass baby cradle (which I shop for all the time, by the way) WalMart is the first place I think to look. I know you're just dying to know how much for this nursery must have.

$6,500.00.

That's right, it's not a typo, six thousand and five hundred US dollars.

Which leads me to ask... Who in their right mind buys this crap? Not that I'm judging you if you have one of these sitting around your house. (Yes, I am.)

Now, I know at least a couple of my readers are also prego, so I've included the link in case you need one of these. Or hey, add it to your registry and maybe a couple thousand of your closest friends and family can go in together on it.

Thanks for reading.

OMG!!! Who in their right mind would pay that for something that your child is going to use 2 - 4 months and then outgrow anyway.

Of course if they're selling, that means some idiot out there is buying. It must be nice to have that kind of money and have no other idea of what to do with it. I hope I have that problem sometime before I die!!!

Craziness! You'd better hurry up and buy it b/c now there won't be any left since you've blabbed about it to everyone! giggle

Actually, I have a bassinet you are more than welcome to borrow--I'm sure we'll be out of it by the time you need it! :) Just lmk
