Every now and again, a gem will shine through from the mass of ‘Buy & Sell’ ads online, and we would like to thank Nikki for this morning’s lol-fest at MummyPages HQ.
This mum has become an internet sensation, all because of her wicked way with words, as displayed in a recent ad she placed on Gumtree. You can check it out in full through this link.
Nikki is looking to sell her fancy Bugaboo Donkey Duo double-pram, for $1,200, promising “over $2,500 worth of stylish prammy fabulousness". And who, pray tell us, could refuse that?!
Nikki certainly knows how to get a sale, describing this buggy as “the Queen of Prams” – but her selling power goes way beyond that.
Storage is clearly a big draw for Nikki, who writes: “[It] operates as a double-pram or single, with a side shopping basket – yaaaasss, no squished, soggy bread in the bottom of yo’ pram from the 3-litre Harvey Fresh [milk] (support local dairy farmers).”
Nikki also suggests that, if you choose not to use the two extra rain covers for the weather, you could ‘probably shove more shopping in those’.
The bassinet will also come in handy as ‘an extra-large shopping basket’, too, for the retail therapy required on account of your husband being ‘too lazy to change a nappy’.
While Nikki has never used the pram’s second seat ‘because her kids try to kill each other’, she recommends the ‘bike seat thing’ and adaptor for all those who are ‘brave enough to carry three children’.
We know the question that’s running through your mind right now: if Nikki is so taken with this pram, then why is she selling it? We’ll let her take the wheel with this one!
“I love this pram, and I don’t want to sell it, because I feel like an actual Kardashian when I hit Coles with it,” she explains.
“My babes are now too big, and I need a new pair of Manolo Blahniks, because I dropped a Meat Lover’s Pizza on my other ones.”
Fair enough!
For those interested in purchasing the Queen of Prams, you’ll have to pick it up yourself; alternatively, though, you can wait to catch Nikki on ‘a good day’ – and make sure to ‘offer wine’!
We don’t anticipate that Nikki will have any problem selling this majestic piece of equipment!
