Do you buy new? What’s actually safe to buy secondhand? And how do you stop overspending on things you’ll barely use? Today’s episode is sponsored by Stork Exchange , and I’m talking with founder Ben Norment, a fellow dad of three who knows firsthand what it’s like to navigate the overwhelm. We get into the big questions every parent faces: * What do you actually need? * What should you always buy new? * And what’s perfectly safe to buy secondhand? Ben breaks down the categories that matter most, including why car seats should always be purchased new, and where families can save significantly by choosing open-box or gently used gear.
