Used Cribs? a Yes or No?

I am getting ready to shop for my first baby crib. I recently read the book "Baby Bargins" and they recommended NEVER getting a used crib. I know older cribs don't fall under the new safety regulations but what about cribs within the last few years? What have other moms heard or experienced?

Carpet in Dining Room

I am moving into an apartment that has carpet in the dining room. I also have two kids (3 years and 10 months) so it is impossible to never spill anything. I am wondering what you moms out there have done--do you put a big rug under the table or are there big plastic mats to buy or do you just have a really good carpet cleaner, etc?

Holes in the Knees of Pants!

I am SO FRUSTRATED! While doing the laundry this morning, I noticed yet another pair of my five-and-a-half-year-old's jeans. He has four pairs of jeans and has knee holes in three of them. One pair has already been patched and he is even wearing through the patches! I don't want him to always have patchy pants, and I also don't want to sped so much on new pants! Any tried and true advice on holey britches for an active preschooler? Any brands of jeans you have tried which are hard to rip?

I Need to Buy a New Sofa! Where Should I Go??

ok Mommas, I need your experiences! I need a new sofa (sectional). The one I have was purchased through Rooms To Go. In less than a year it was broken in the middle. They won't help me replace, so I will NOT be going back! So where else should I go? RoomStore seems to be the same, so I don't want to go there either! Do you have a sofa that has lasted through kids and spouses? Who made it? I heard Bernhardt was really good! Have you had great customer service somewhere?? Tell me what your experience.....................good or bad!
