Here are the plans / Your suggestions

[beti]

Hello to everyone in the forum,

My name is Betty and Ilive in Paris.
I'm 30 and I've already been 2 to times in WDW and more than 6 times in Florida.
Next september, my family and I will be in Florida, spending one week in WDW.
There will be Steeve my husband (31), Seb my brother (22) and Leni my son (2).
We will spend the first week of our holidays in Fort Myers and the second week in Orlando (we are staying in Orange Lake resort).
I'm planning to buy 3 days hoper passes + (trough Alamo).
I'm also planning to buy some things I'll need during the trip directly when we arrived instead of bringing them because I think it would be cheaper.
First, I'll need a stroller so I think I'll buy the Chicco Caddy (it cost around 100euro=114$ here in France).
Concerning the diapers, can you tell me how much would I pay for a pack of Pampers Easy Up ?
If you have any other suggestions or questions, I would be glad to here them.
Thanks a lot for your answer.

Betty

PS: I'm sorry but my english may not be perfect...

I think we paid around $8-$10 for Pull-ups--that's the for the small package. The really big package is around $12-$14. Hope that helps Oh-your English is fine...

Thank you for your answer !
Here in France the large pack is around $18 so I will definitely by the diapers when we arrive in Florida. Not only for the price difference but also because we will travel a little more "light"...

Beti,

Welcome!

I found the Chicco Caddy listed for $49.99 on the Babies R Us website: www.babiesrus.com. Babies R Us has some of the best selection for Baby items in the U.S. There is a Babies R Us store in Orlando at 2654 EAST COLONIAL DRIV, ORLANDO, FL 32803, Tel: (407) 896-7757.

You may want a stroller with a basket underneath. I just bought a lightweight Kolcraft with a large basket and a sun visor for $30 at Target. It's one or two pounds heavier than the Chicco, folds flat instead of like and umbrella, and probably won't stand up as well over time, but it'll get me through six days at Disney World.

Best of Luck,

EthansMom

Thank you for the info !
Does the stroller you bought have a reclining seat and do you think I will find it in any Target (We'll be in Fort Myers first and I would like to buy it as soon as we arrive.

No, our stroller doesn't recline -- another of it's down points. My son won't nap in a stroller, so that isn't such a negative with us.

There is a Target at Fort Myers. But the different stores do seem to carry some different products. I would call the Target before going and ask if they have the Kolcraft Lite Sport Stroller with a basket & sun visor. There is a Target in Fort Myers at: 13711 S Tamiami Trl , Fort Myers, FL 33912-1649 USA, Phone: (239) 481-8860.

Here is a link that shows the Kolcraft stroller: http://www.sears.com/sr/product/sum...EARS&pid=04935622000&sid=I0004500030000100085

If there is some way you could order it ahead of time and have the stroller waiting for you, you can order the Kolcraft Lite Sport from Sears at www.sears.com. They have one for $24.99, not including shipping and handling. Or you could call the Sears in Fort Myers and see if they carry it: 4125 CLEVELAND AVE SUITE 88, EDISON MALL, FORT MYERS, FL 33901, (239)936-4131.

Oh neat, you can arrange for store pick-up at the Sears!!!! You can pre-order the Kolcraft Lite Sport on the internet a week or so in advance and then pick it up at the Sears in Fort Myer. Sears is a fairly reputable U.S. store. They also have other brands of strollers. Items that can be ordered for store pick-up are marked with a blue star on the Sears website. On the product page, enter the area code 33901 to check for store pick-up in Fort Myers. Check out: www.sears.com.

Good Luck!
