One of my besties let me have her Mothercare travel system. She said it'd barely been used because she didn't like it and bought a different one after 3 months. Considering how expensive they are me and OH were really really grateful.
However, having only used it when carting it around to different relatives houses looking for somewhere to store it, I can see why. It's very bulky. Very big. Very black. It also only fits in OH's car. I can squeeze it into my boot but I wouldn't be able to do it by myself.
(I hate how ungrateful I sound)
Went to the local car boot with my parents and sister today and whilst we were browsing we spotted this gorgeous Silver Cross pram in greys/beiges and yellow. It was so lovely and comes with like the footmuff and an umbrella and it was generally just so much more suitable for what we need. It's pretty much an older version of this one I think http://www.silvercrossbaby.com/pram-systems/Linear-Freeway/oxford-grey/ and it even had the matching car seat... all for £35. To which they went down to £30.
And my mum being mum, talked me into getting it (not that I needed much persuasion!) lol
Now I feel really guilty. It was such a lovely gift from her and I feel like if I tell her I've bought another one that I'll just seem really rude. Am I rude?!
I know she definitely doesn't want and she's told me outright she doesn't want it back. But there again, I know that's not the point...
WHAT DO I DO NOW?!
