[QUOTE="donna723, post: 312800, member: 1883"] When I was doing that baby dept. inventory it was years and years ago. I was just temp holiday help in the store and had no earthly idea what I was doing with an inventory! They would just drop us in a department, give very vague instructions, and then disappear! Baby items were a lot more generic in those days, weren't they! Do they even sell training pants any more? All you see now is 'Pull-Ups" which add up to a lot of $$$! And how does that feel any different than a diaper to the kid? I have a great-nephew who still wears Pull-Ups and he's 3-1/2! They have stuff now that we never [I]dreamed[/I] of when ours were babies! My daughter has a few things for my grandson that I didn't even know what they were - had to ask like a big dummy! Some of it is completely unnecessary but I would have [I]killed[/I] to have one of those 'Boppy' things when mine were little! Such a simple idea but soooo helpful! It's just a big "C" shaped cushion. You put it around you when you're feeding or holding an infant and it's a soft place to rest your elbow - no more aching arms from trying to hold your elbow up when you're feeding them. And when they're too little to sit alone you plunk them down in that thing and it supports them in a sitting position! Neat! [/QUOTE]
