So, I've got £50. . .

My council are doing cashback if you spend £50 on nappies and accessories, so if you had 50 squids to spend on pre loved nappies what would you choose?
I have a few pockets that I love (I think they are minky outers?), I like the look of blueberries wraps, I've seen a ruby coloured one but I'm worried it might be too girly? I was also wondering about pop ins, tots stretchy bamboo.
I really don't want to spend more than about £8-9 on anything pre loved.
I still have so much to learn with all these new nappies so does anyone have any recommendations?

DO you need to have reciepts to get the cash back? if so pre-loved may not be a go-er. but I am in love with the new bamboozle stretchy. and pockets - impossible to go wrong with Real easys IMO

My council gave cashback on preloved I just had to send the paypal receipts via email. (i made sure that payment description said exactly what it was for)

In answer to the what nappies - i think you cant go wrong with GreenKids minkytimes (usually about the price you are looking at)

Another vote for Real Easys if you get pockets. I love the look of the bamboozle stretchy! I want to get some myself but I can't decide whether to disregard my dislike for aplix or not...

I spoke to the guy at the council who deals with the cash back and he said I could either use paypal receipts or they would accept (hand written) receipts from the people I bought stuff off. I also need to get a HV to sign to say they have seen ds2 in washables.

I think you should spend all the money on customised Weenotions :D but dont listen to me, I'm a bad influence :giggle:

If you haven't tried many yet then I'd try to get at least one of each type. Pockets I have: Minki, Wonderoo, Coolababy (I really recommend these, and they are less than £9 brand new!), Weenotions (this was lent to me it's fab), Fuzzi Bunz. The only AIOs I have at the mo are Ittis - love these :D have you tried fitteds? I really didn't like the idea of these but I tried Little Lambs and now I love those too! They are also quite reasonably priced and you can pick them up quite cheap preloved.
