Want Matthew McConaughey's Stroller?

Ever wonder what strollers the celebrities are pushing in those "Stars: They're Just Like Us" photos you see in the tabloids? Well now you can look like a paparrazi hunted hottie too... and kind of hold hands with Matthew McConnaughey.... Kind of....

Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves know that hand-me-downs are a great way to not only save money but also raise money! They’ve donated their son’s gorgeous and gently used Baby Jogger stroller to benefit McConaughey’s own j.k. livin foundation, dedicated to helping teenage kids lead active lives and make healthy choices so they can become great men and women. The auction is available only on Handmedowns.com, the revolutionary new classifieds site for parents where you can buy & sell new and gently used baby and kids gear, strollers, toys, clothes and more.

Previous handmedowns.com celebrity auctions have featured items from Nicole Richie, Gwen Stefani and Melissa Joan Hart and have raised thousands of dollars for children’s charities.

The auction runs from November 9th-18th, 2009 on www.handmedowns.com.

100% or the proceeds will benefit the j.k. livin foundation.

HAND-ME-DOWNS!

A long time ago, I wrote a post for Momlogic about the Handmedown dilemma that I think every mom experiences. Whether you're the Hand-me-down "Pitcher" (offering your kid's puke stained bouncer and onesie), or the Hand-me-down "Catcher" (receiving your friend's kid's puke stained bouncer and onesie), knowing and understanding the HMD protocol can be a little anxiety provoking.... At least for me. (Shocker).

My dear friend Norah and her partner Jane, however, have created a website that I think takes the anxiety out of what to do with that ridiculously annoying swing (that you secretly let your child sleep in for 9 months because you swear that sleep experts really don't know shit). Handmedowns.com is a PG, mom-friendly CraigsList, if you will, that I think can help those of you who are looking to either de-clutter your closets, make some money, or even help others in need!

Plus, right now, they're giving away TWO tickets to MILEY CYRUS with a BACKSTAGE PASS!!

Ok, Here's How you Post

1. Go to handmedowns.com and choose SELL
2. List your item, design it with a picture if you want and check out!
3. Someone will contact you via email and the rest is up to you!

Plus, the more times you post, the more times your name is entered
into the sweepstakes (Miley, here you come!)

FAMILY FINDS: 56% Off at thredUP.com

Garage sales are a hassle and exchanging hand-me downs with relatives can cause drama. With thredUP.com, you can trade in and trade UP with one click! For only $20, you can get $46 worth of “pre-loved” kids clothing or toys, and a one-year PRO swapping membership. How does it work?

FAMILY FINDS: Half-Off Gently Used Merchandise at Kidstock

Aside from wardrobe staples, Kidstock also sells seasonal merchandise such as snow/ski clothing, swimsuits, and coats/sweaters.

Bring in your gently used items, and you could even receive store credit. Get more for your money at Kidstock, and outfit your kid in style. Remember, resale is the ultimate in recycling!
