Cheap Strollers but accessories add up!

[TBGOES2DISNEY]

We bought a cute Winnie the Pooh Umbrella stroller for our trip - about $14-15 dollars. We were given another for our other dd as a gift. We spent a few dollars on a bag for both strollers. Today I found an Eddie Bauer stroller organizer at Target for $8.99. It can hold a bottle of water, has a velcro pocket and then lots of room in a net pocket down below.

Now we need stroller connectors. Those are $10. We also want rain covers so they aren't soaked if it rains while we are inside somewhere. Those things are expensive! This is really adding up! Can you relate? And I didn't start with an expensive stroller! lol

Does anyone know where you can get a connector cheaper? How about a good deal on the rain cover?

Thanks!

Will the 99 cent ponchos work as stroller covers? Also, I read this tip elsewhere and think it is great -- if stroller is tippy (from all the after-market add-ons!) put ankle weights above the front wheels. Maybe you can check w/ebay for stroller connectors -- but w/shipping $10 may not be bad. I have also heard the the strollers being connected should be the same or very, very similar -- maybe you could tryout in the store?

Thanks for the tip - I'll try out the ponchos if I can't find a good deal on a cover!
