Like Craig’s List Without the Weirdos Looking to Buy Placentas

You’ve spent months agonizing over bedding options for your baby’s nursery, only to discover your must-have ensemble was discontinued, and the whole county is sold out. Who’d have thought Pirate Bunnies would be so popular?
That’s where Oodle Moms comes in. This online classified site geared toward moms compiles ads (20 million of them!) from over 75,000 sites, and includes a wide range of items ranging from toys and baby gear to tickets for Baby Loves Disco. Even family activities and concerts in your area; and yes, personals. Work it, single moms!
Search within your local geographic area for large items like, say a house. Or search more broadly to locate that obscure collectible figurine on the niece’s birthday wish list. My favorite feature is the Alerts, which save your search criteria and offer super-convenient e-mail notification when an item of interest pops up.
Shopping without leaving the comfort of your home — what could be more satisfying? Except perhaps scoring that Jack(rabbit) Sparrow changing pad cover you’ve been searching for. Sweet! –Nancy
