Yahoo Finance Everything in Matalan’s baby event is £5 or less: Here’s what to buy
From multipacks of bibs and sun hats to dresses and leggings, the retailer has it all
(The Independent)Shopping for your newborn is a pricey and time-consuming task, both in terms of buying all the essentials – from choosing a new baby bed to the perfect baby carrier – but also their clothing, which they’ll undoubtedly grow out of at lightning speed.
Every few months, or in some cases, weeks, babies will be too big for their garments. As such, it pays to be savvy with your shopping and make sure you’re not paying over the odds for new babygrows or summer outfits.
