I would like to buy a USED jogger stroller, like a City Mini, and I'm not sure where to buy a USED one. Does anyone have one to sell or have a recommendation of where I could buy one? My son is over 2 so not looking to spend a ton of money which is why I'm trying to go the USED route. Really trying to run and the only way I can do it is with him in tow. Thanks.

What can I do next?

I sold mine at a yard sale, but I see them on craigslist all the time. My SIL is a runner and has the City Mini and she said it is not a jogging stroller. She had a separate Jeep jogging stroller for when she went running. I had the Baby Trend and I loved it, but when I had twins, I didn't have a need for a single stroller anymore.

I was going to say Craigslist, but freecycle is good too. Good luck!

Like Michelle mentioned below, Play It Again Sports is a good place to look. You can even just call up the stores and ask them if they have one. Once Upon a Child might have them too. Craigslist is good, and so is bookoo.com . Good luck!

Do you have a Play it Again Sports in your area? They sell stuff like that.

Check and see if you have "once upon a child" stores around. They sell gently used items there. I love it and have gotten lots of things there.

The three best places to look would be bookoo.com, craigslist or play it again sports. If you truly want to jog with it the City Mini isn't a good option. I'd go for a Baby Trend brand or if you want to spend a little more, the BOB another good stroller to jog with. If you are looking for one that is a jogger and can take to the park...look for one with a front wheel that swivels (for walking and everyday sort of use) and locks (for jogging). I've owned one where the front wheel is always locked and it was a pain to steer when I wasn't jogging and just needed the double stroller.

Try your local freecycle. You never know what people will give away.

Also, I don't know about your area, but there are a bunch of consignment sales here now, like Just Between Friends, etc. Good luck.

We just had success using Craigs list to purchase a stroller and a car seat to get ready for our grand daughter to visit our house. For safety reasons, the purchase point should be in a public location and other people should be informed as you are getting ready to pick up your purchase (about where and when you are making your purchase).
