Buying large nursery items

I remember going pram shopping (having offered to buy said pram) and DD and SIL having different preferences. In the end I gave money enough to pay for the more expensive option and left it to them to choose what they wanted. As usual, SIL got his way!!!

I would give the £1000, as she seems a good shopper I am sure it would not be wasted.

Maybe she budgeted because she had plans for the extra money.

Idid the same for our last GD ,they also bought things under the budget.I asked them if they would like a newborn shoot with an ward winning baby photographer to use the rest and have something to keep .They did and have some lovely pictures of baby all taken when she was days old .

If you'd budgeted for it anyway, you could always add it to the baby's bank account when your daughter opens one ?

no. you said up to £1000. That gives you £300 to spoil the new grandchild xx
