Hinesh Chauhan delivers a short, practical parenting tip recommending parents buy used children’s equipment (skates, roller blades, bikes, etc.) from online second‑hand marketplaces (e.g., Facebook groups, Kijiji) to save money and avoid waste. He argues that kids outgrow items quickly and that buying gently used items reduces cost and concern about loss or damage.
Common knowledge and common sense is actually not that common. So I wanted to share this for all you parents out there that need new skates, roller blades, bikes, whatever it is. As we change transition seasons, you'll need all this new equipment and our little human weeds go grow like crazy over the winter. So you may be surprised that a lot of stuff doesn't fit. So I'm going out and buying something new. Why not look at Facebook groups, kijiji, or other sources with used, gently loved, however you want to put it. Equipment considerably cheaper and you save the tax until our government learns how to tax that and track it. But highly recommend that do that. You'll save a bundle and the options are there. Something breaks, gets lost, gets stolen. It's really not a big deal when you paid so little for something and it was gently loved before.
