Frugal Family: Chic Baby Gear, Luxe Skin Care and More

Hi there! Thanks for checking out the latest Frugal Family column, where we at Santa Monica Patch leave no stone unturned in our quest to find you the top discounts, offers, and sales to help stretch your bottom dollar!

Ooh—heard of an unbelievable sale in the pipeline? One going on right this minute? Please let us know all the important information in the comment box below! Egads, the shame of it all! Did we somehow miss out on an uber-sale? Let us know of our mistake as well (please, try not to make us feel to bad), we at Patch always want to hear from you!

• RECRIB

Deal: The latest baby/kid gadgets always seem so sleek in the stores and in the magazines but their prices tags? Not so sleek. reCrib founders Daniel and Michelle Lehmann to the rescue! With their new site, you can find gently used trendy gear at amazing prices (a Bugaboo Bee for $300 in stead of the retail $600) so you can be chic and thrifty!

Good Through: Always

• YOGAHOP

Deal: Oh bathing suit season—why do you come so fast? Well, get those soon-to-be-exposed parts toned up fast with one of challenging, music filled classes. For $30, score a two-week unlimited class pass and soon you’ll be ready to rock that bathing suit in no time.

Good Through: For new students only.

• GAP KIDS

Deal: On the bottom floor of the their is a marvelous continual sale section of kids clothing! Unless you know to look for it, it’s easy to miss it and that would be a shame because my, oh my the bargains to be had! From $10 skirts to $15 cargo shorts, it’s quite the sale-a-palooza!

Good Through: Always

• DISCOVER SHISEIDO MOBILE TOUR
