尋日去左Cloverdale既Swapmeet買左一個bouncer（$2.00)，一個side mirror($1.00),一對全新既運動鞋($4.00)同埋呢幾件衣服：

呢件全新未著過，盛惠$5.00


呢件小鳳姐裙都係全新未著過，盛惠$5.00



呢件夏天著最好，盛惠$4.00


呢條好cute既工人褲都只係$3.00


有考慮過衛生問題，所以通常買都只揀九成新或以上，又會睇下個vendor媽媽本身整唔整齊。今次呢個vendor係一個身光頸靚好有taste既媽媽，佢Ｄ衫仔都好乾淨同保養得好好。

close at 1pm.  I am thinking of getting the following things:

1) second hand Babybjorn carrier
2) changing pad
3) toddler car seat (may be)
4) humidifier

I think this time I am going at 10ish.  Last time I went at around 11pm, a lot of good stuff was gone, but I could get cheap clothing, and I was lucky enough to buy a 90% new brand name high chair for only $55.

"係人地阿婆織比個孫既溫暖牌"... If I were the mother, I wouldn't sell it cuz it's good for keepsake la. And if I were the grandma and I know my daughter is going to sell out my hard work, I wouldn't make any other new one for my grandchild any more lor. So heart breaking..... (cry ...cry...)

Thx for your tips.....yup...the admission is quite expensive for the early bird......I'm looking for monitor too...but I didn't got it yet.....

I went there at almost 11am, was interested in a second hand sling.  It was $35 and I asked for $20.  The vendor said $25 and I said there is another booth selling brand new slings for $50.  She thought about it and she said she is willing to wait till 1pm.

My next visit to swapmeet, I will look for a car seat base, may be a pretty new changing pad.  Someone from my church is willing to take care of my baby when I go to work so it would be nice if I can buy an extra base plus a changing pad.

The first time we went we did went there before 10am because we were looking for a stroller and some other useful items.  We ended up buying a couple baby monitors.  Right now we have about 3 sets at home and we put the monitors in our bedroom, kitchen, & den.  Pretty handy.

low_B : never ever show up at 9am! Isn't the admission price $5 before 10am? If you show up that early, you'd only end up with expensive stuff (and expensive admission) !! The prices don't go down until after 11am...if you go after 11am , some tables will cut their prices by 50% and sometimes, they will give away their stuff if they want to close their stall early!..of course you'll probably say that by 11am most of the good stuff is sold...but then again, if you want to have a good bargain, you should wait! Also it's easier to bargain before the end of the swapmeet..because people don't want to bring everything home with them so they will sell the items at a much lower price!
