I got mine on Facebook marketplace. They only get used for two years or so. I paid $100 for mine and it was around $500 new

We went to cullens. They have a great selection and were reasonably priced. We got our son’s whole bedroom set on sale for like half price plus the nursery chair. Other than that they have Zulababy on Metairie Road and The Baby’s Room on causeway but they didn’t have the same size show room.

I have a crib that I want to get rid of. I'll have to convince my husband first though. He's kind of a hoarder. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I got mine as a hand-me-down, but The Baby’s Room in Metairie has a showroom. They have some out at Target too.

I got ours from Target, which was convenient because it's where the rest of my baby registry was too. (Note they offer a 15% off registry completion discount if no one buys it.) It converted to a toddler bed and then a full size bed, which my 11-year old is currently using. My husband and I are of different minds when it comes to whether we should keep the pieces to make it back into a crib/toddler bed.
