Want an inexpensive mattress? Car Seat? Check out Big Lots

Thanks to Rory for letting me know about this! We were searching for a new mattress for our little girls new 'big girl' bed - we got a 2nd hand day bed from Craigslist but felt uncomfortable with a used mattress.  I looked around everywhere & just had a hard time considering $200+ for a mattress for a kid that weighs 32 pounds!

Big lots sells twin mattresses WAY cheaper than anywhere else I could find (including Walmart, Ikea, and Overstock!) - name brand twin size mattresses started at $99!

I know some people don't like Big Lots & I can see why in some aspects - but I thought I should point that out. 

PS - Two years ago we brought our son home from Russia (along with a LOT of debt) - I needed to get him a carseat & noticed in the Big Lots add that they just happened to be selling Graco 5 pnt car seats for about $50 - such a blessing! The exact same model (but a year older) than the one I was looking at at Babies R Us for nearly 3 times the price on sale!! They don't have them all the time - but I would definitely check there first if you are in the market for one.

Happy Shopping ~
