Travel / umbrella stroller - hire or buy - what worked for you?

[Mrs P]

Thanks for replies girls - I think we will just buy an umbrella stroller! Kate07 I thought the prices were too much for hire too - the actual hire was only around $25-35 depending on the place but delivery and pick-up (which we would need) was anywhere from $35 to $69 EACH WAY! WTF?!? Crazy. Now I have a few months to keep me eye out for a good stroller on sale - and I guess it's not going to matter if it gets a bit scratched etc as it would only be used for travel or possibly by the grandparents etc.

Our stroller has survived a couple of trips to QLD and back with no probs .
