Please Help! I'm OBSESSED!




So I have been searching and searching for a double jogging stroller for a few weeks now, ever since Josh said he was going to give me that for my birthday (last week) Well, I still don't have one, BUT I have managed to waste hours of my time learning all about EVERY BRAND of double jogger out there! Those who know me understand my dilema, and that is... I NEED A DEAL! It's become quite and obsession of mine, I have found several strollers that I love (pictured above) But I don't want to pay a crazy amount! ($4-500)!!

Does anyone have a jogger that they love? Any recomendations? Know anyone that wants to sell their double??
I want to get one soon, the weather is getting nice and I need to stroll stroll stroll!

So, my dad got me a double jogger off of Ebay for 150.00 and i LOVE it so far! Its a brand new..its a called baby trend. Its built really good and not expensive. PS. don't get one with a swivvle front wheel. I hear those are horrible??

We have a Schwinn double jogger and I love it. We got it on ebay for $200. It has a swivel wheel which is great for walking or taking it to the zoo or somewhere that you need to maneuver. The wheel can also lock into place if you want to jog. I have heard that it you just want to jog or do some serious running that the non swivels are better but they are harder to maneuver. (My friend in Omaha had one). Anyways, come over sometime and check ours out. It's actually the second one we've owned cause our first one got stolen. I also love the big sunshade on ours. You can adjust it to keep the sun out at any angle and that's huge from past experience. Oh, and game night sounds great!!!

I'm no help, but I hope you get one soon. You have been wanting one for almost a year now!

Have you seen the ones in Costco? That's where I got mine a few years ago and I really like it. It runs really well. The only downside is it doesn't collapse so If you had to take it somewhere it takes up a lot of room. It's very affordable though! Jana

I went back and looked at those pictures you had on there, the one I have does have way more space to store things too! Jana

I have the Phil & Teds stroller and I am in love with it. It definately would not be a good jogging stroller, but I just walk so it works great. To me, it was worth spending the money since we use it so much. I love how it can be a single or double stroller

I have heard great things about the BOB stroller too. I had a Schwinn before this and I loved it too. The swivel wheel is great for the mall, plus you can lock it in to go jogging.

GOOD LUCK! Try looking on craigslist in boise or salt lake, or ksl in salt lake. You'd find a great deal I'm sure.

We are twinners. I have been doing the same exact thing for the past month. I check ksl everyday for a jogging stroller/bike trailer for a good deal. I want this one soooo bad, but cant get myself to pay $500 smakers for it.
