you could see if anyone on the forum is selling anything, put a add in the wanted section.

Yeah - check out 'For Sale' items on here, also ad mag, ebay and also car boots, jumble sales are an excellent place to pick up stuff like this!!

Also mention it to friends or neighbours that you are looking out for things like this....Mums of older children are always looking for new homes for their kids outgrown, unused items and many will let you have it for free just to get rid of the clutter!

I'd like to bet that if I did a trawl round a lot of the second hand shops I'd be able to pick up just about everything.
There are loads of shops in Sheffield and I've seen cots, high chairs and other kiddy things in St. Lukes hospice and Oxfam.
Crookes, Broomhill, Woodseats and Ecclesall road are the places to look.

I would defo recommend going to a car boot sale, alot of stuff hardly been used and in good condition at good prices! and u can haggle if your buying a few things!

What about Freecycle - they give stuff away there.
