Best stroller bag?

[ammeador2]

I've read many posts about what stroller bag is the best for WDW but I can't find that thread!. I want something big enough for diapers for DS(1) and a change of clothes for DD and DS, but not too bulky yet easy to use? Does a bag like this exist? I've already learned from other DISers that I must have crocs, clickable sharpies, and ziploc bag outfits for the kids! I just missed what stroller bag to buy!

 

[5 for WDW]

We loved our Skip Hop Duo bag for our stroller when we went to WDW. We have the red canvas one.
It was easy to carry and worked great on our Perego P3. It held everything we needed it too, and then some.

The previous poster mentioned the skip hop....target has a skip hop "spark", which is a discounted version of their higher end Duo. Same basic features, including stroller straps. We used it in December, and it worked good enough....I prefer a zipper closure, this has velcro, however. Still, for the price, a great, mid sized bag for the price. If price is not a concern, Fleurville Sling Tote is my favorite, hands down. Thankfully, I got mine on clearance from Fleurville.com. Fleurvilles website does have seconds now, where the sling tote bag is available for half price for minor flaws. GREAT bag!!!!

I also have the Skip Hop Duo (red) as well as the Skip Hop Spark (green camo). I have to say that we are constantly using the Spark compared to only here and there using the Duo. They are similar but for some reason. The Spark seems roomier and I like the organization better on it.

The last 2 years, we used a P3 at WDW and I never did bring either Skip Hop though. I never liked how they hung on the P3 but always used them on my many other strollers. Plus they just aren't roomy enough for me for Disney. LOL One year, we brought the cheapy diaper bag that we got when DD was born from the hospital because I figured it would be okay if it got dirty or wet or anything. Midway through that trip, I quit using the diaper bag and just put everything in a backpack which was easier to handle on the busses and everything. So last year, I just did the backpack again.

For this September, we have sold both P3's and are bringing a Baby Jogger City Mini. I plan on bringing a backpack as usual (not sure what will end up in it yet though) and also bought one of the Disney Messenger Bags to hang off the back. We also bought 2 of the Skip Hop Saddlebags to try out this trip. I hear they are fairly roomy. I got good deals on the 2 different colors and so of course they won't match my stroller (we bought the orange/gray Mini and have both the Ice Blue and Mushroom Saddlebags) but if they help me stay organized and help hold everything because I am an overpacker, I will be all set!! LOL

I've got the JJ Cole Logic bag. I've used it for several months now and love it. I haven't used it in the park yet, but we'll see in October how well it does.

I might be too late to add my .02 but what I've done the past 3 or so visits which has worked out perfect is for me to carry a smallish type bag like a baggallini in which I carried things that I wouldn't want staying with the stroller like my wallet, park tickets, small camara and things that I would "need" in say the bathroom or a restaurant like a small wipes case, spare diaper or pull up, etc. Then on the stroller I had a saddlebag and a small bag on the handles to carry extras. I kept ponchos, extra diapers, and a change of clothes in a ziploc baggie in the saddlebag and had a couple bottles on water in the handle bag. The bags I got were from www.carryyou.com. This way worked out great because I took the baggallini with me on all the rides so I didn't worry about any of the valubles getting stolen and all the heavy, bulky stuff was left in the stroller.

I love my Skip Hop Expo. It is the one that zippers open to expand at the bottom. Haven't tried it at WDW yet (November trip!), but it has worked well at a variety of amusement parks. Holds a lot, but not everything.

I tried the Spark from Target, but the handles seemed to get in my way when it was hanging on the stroller.

I also have 2 of the Skip Hop saddlebags that I'll take to WDW. My son loves to play with them right now, they are his briefcases He packs them up for long drives or to visit Grammy. I like how they strap on the side of my stroller.

I bought the Expo on ebay & the saddlebags directly from Skip Hop.

I went out and bought a skip hop spark from Target. I wanted to see something "hands on" and it looks like it will work ok for what I am needing. We will see tho. I may have to buy another one for my other stroller! I have 2 strollers for 2 monsters! loads of fun!

Thanks for all of your insight! and Have a great vacation! Mine is 27 days away..but who's counting!

I had read that the Skip Hop Sparks at Target were on clearance at some stores. I checked my store and scanned the Green Camo Duo like) Spark and that one rang up regular price although I heard other stores do have that one on clearance. The smaller Messenger style one in Green Camo was already clearance priced. My store also had the Black Spark but it wasn't red-ticketed and I never did scan it.

But if you are interested in trying one, check you Target and see if maybe they are clearancing them out. HTH
