Some people might feel that using the word "breast" in any form can be a TMI or make people uncomfortable. So if you are one of those people, stop reading.
As you know, I recently had a child and I recently had to go back to work. My awesome friend Colleen has let me use her breast pump. I greatly appreciate that since they are EXPENSIVE. We (Hutch and I) have decided to invest in our own. There's a particular one that we have been looking at and pricing. At Target and BabiesRUs it was about $270; at Amazon.com it was about $230. My awesome mom was looking online to see if she could find it cheaper, which she did! This website was put together in a weird way. They have all of these breast feeding items but they don't list prices. To get their prices, you have to call them or email them your email address and they will email their prices to you. Weird! So my mom and I both emailed them to get their prices. The pump I want they have for $219 with free shipping. Yeah!! So I called Hutch and we decided to buy it. The sale only goes to the end of this month, then the price goes up. So it was weird how you find out what the price is, ordering is not just weird but confusing. I apparently never learned to read. I clicked on the button to place an order. You type in the item you want (not item number, just item) and I clicked complete. Then I went through the credit card info stuff (takes you to PayPal) in the end I was charged $7. Yes $7.00. That didn't seem correct. So I read through the instructions again (because I'm smart like that) and it seems that every item is listed as $1 and in the quantity amount you put the price of the item. So I would type in the type of breast pump and put that I want 219.95 of them. Then go through the PayPal process and they charge me $219.95. I emailed the company and told them about my mistake and they reversed the first charge of $7. ($1 for item $6 for shipping) But even after all of that confusion, I'm still getting the item I want. Once the item has arrived and if everything turns out good, I'll let you know what website just in case any of you want to order from them.

Oh bummer! I wish I would have known you were looking for one! We bought one when I had Porter but frankly I just don't produce ANYTHING so we were wanting to sell ours.It was a Medela too. Oh well. If you know of anyone who needs one, let me know.I only used it a handful of times.
