We now all have the opportunity to consume better and less! Taking out your purse to buy a new pushchair will soon be completely outdated or “a thing of the past”.
Should you buy a second-hand or new stroller ?
It all depends on how long you plan to use your stroller !
If it is for your youngest child and the stroller will only be used occasionally, buying second-hand seems more appropriate than buying new. Many parents and grandparents know that buying a new pushchair for their child can be very expensive. Opting for second-hand, reconditioned or used products will allow you to save money and help the environment.
Is buying second-hand good for our planet?
Buying a second-hand pushchair for your baby is a good idea, especially if you want to save money and protect our planet. Giving a stroller a second life helps to reduce waste and limit the consumption of resources.
Today, a new economic model is emerging, one that is circular rather than linear. A new economy has been born: the functional economy, which consists of selling the use of a product rather than the product itself. Today, 77% of French people say they prefer to use a product rather than own it.
As children grow older, toys, childcare products and clothes pile up and we no longer know where to store them. Depending on the age of the child, needs change and evolve rapidly. Buying second-hand or used items is a gesture for the well-being of our planet!
At FAMILIB, we believe that the functional economy is the one we will all be using tomorrow! Our needs today are not the same as yesterday's, and consumption based on usage is the way forward.
Where can you buy a used or second-hand stroller ?
There are shops with consignment stores for children in almost every town in France. There is bound to be a consignment store for children near you.
A local retailer is the quickest and easiest way to find what you are looking for at low prices. It will also give you access to quality childcare brands at affordable prices. Not to mention that it is a place for exchange and sharing! Once there, you can enjoy personalised advice and a unique shopping experience.
Buying second-hand baby equipment is simple, practical and economical!
Although a pushchair is an essential item in everyday life for parents, it is not always suitable for every activity or location and can also be a source of clutter when travelling to the mountains with the family.
So why not buy one second-hand ?
If your everyday pushchair isn't suitable for your stay in the mountains or a walk in the forest, buying a second-hand or reconditioned one will give you a product that is perfectly suited to the location and will be safer for your child.
Reaching for your wallet to buy new products will soon be completely outdated or “a thing of the past”! Buying a second-hand pushchair is a solution worth considering for all new parents.
