Mother of Twins Perks

I belong to a mother of twins club.  It is a great perk to being a mother of twins because twice a year (fall and spring) they have a big sale.  If you are a member of the club you get to shop the night before the sale is open to the public.  It is HUGE!!!!  I have been shopping at these sales since I was big and pregnant with Jacob and Claire and I really outfit them almost completely at the sales.  I have gotten better at shopping each sale, since it does take some strategy.  I bought all of this stuff and a tricycle for just over $100.  I also picked up a great wagon for a friend and a pair of shoes for another friend.  Such a great perk!

Hey Dani,

I found your blog through the Kilton's blog. I was just wondering if you thought it was worth it to belong to the Mother's of Multiple club. I don't know if you knew but we just had twin girls in Oct. Also, how much are the sales for the clothes at the annual buy and sale?

Thanks!

Melissa,
I would love to talk to you about your twins. Congrats. Where I live it is DEFINITELY worth being part of the club, but it probably depends on where you live. I outfit my kids for every season at the sales and get lots of other things for them there, they are getting used trikes for their birthday on Saturday. The club I belong to has a sale 2 times a year that is open to club members for free (outside of the yearly dues) the night before it opens to public. The clothes range from about 50 cents to 5 dollars per piece.

That sounds really good. I will have to see if they have already had their sale thing. I am running out of the clothes that people gave me for showers, etc. and am fearing the cost of outfitting 2 kids!
