It’s true, there are ways to spend less and get more – if you know how to plan your purchases wisely. Master these tips which will help you spend wiser:

1. Buy in bulk: Buying non-perishable items in bulk will save you money (eg. baby wipes, diapers, toilet paper, kitchen towels). You get a discount, plus you do not need to replenish the items that often – saving you transport expenses to the shops.

2. Get it free, rent or share: Friends and family will be happy to pass on their maternity wear to expectant mothers, if you are savvy enough to ask for them. Alternatively, you can rent maternity wear online or if you have friends who are expecting at the same time, you can even buy maternity wear to share and swop with one another.

3. Buy online: Many baby and maternity products can be bought at substantial discounts online. Thus, it pays to shop around to compare prices online to benefit from the savings. To save even more, apply rule no.1 to online shopping by organsing sprees to gather more orders for similar products in order to negotiate for lower prices.
