Since the Fall, I've been promising the kiddos a play structure in the backyard for this summer.
Brand new base model from Walmart: 400$
Most used ones on kijiji: 200$+
The one I waited patiently for, and jumped on asap: 75$ !!
The DH went and disassembled it, brought it home and him and the kids have had fun putting it together this weekend. It's got everything: swings, horsey thing, slide, monkey bars and treehouse-like perch.
Best part of the whole thing (other than ridiculously happy kids), I paid for it out of the proceeds from selling our old chicken coop. Sweet!
