How Many CRs in Kecia’s Training Seat Collection? Giveaway!

As I unloaded all the training seats that I took to class in Kingston last week – I got the bright idea to share my collection with our blog readers.  I had no intention of turning it into a giveaway but when I noticed the bag of Lifesavers freebies that has been sitting next to my desk since April – the light bulb went off.  So, here the deal:

The first person to correctly guess how many training CRs are in that storage room (see video below) will win the bag of freebies from Lifesavers!  Keep in mind that you can’t actually see all the CRs in that video although you do see most of them.  Contest will be open until Noon EST on Friday.  I’ll announce the winner on Friday afternoon, by which time I will have the correct answer.  Now the fine print…. eh, I’m lazy – so there will be no fine print except to exclude anyone who actually attended the LS Conference in Philly this year.  However, if you win and you live outside of the US, then it will be up to you to cover any costs beyond the $9 that I’m expecting to spend to ship this box via USPS priority mail.  Oh, and if you make fun of the way I pronounce “Maestro” then you’ll be automatically disqualified.  Capisce?  ;-)

PS – In the event that no one guesses the correct answer then I’ll chose the number that was closest without going over.

The 73 was not there when I first read this post – can I re-guess at 76?

Thanks!

Julie – I can’t help but wonder if they all come to life when I leave the room like some twisted version of Toy Story. I imagine your Start would be the loud, over-bearing CR who barks orders at the other seats in a thick German accent. The Jane Indy Plus would sound like Antonio Banderas. And the KeyFit would be a cute, smart blond who is always the life of the party! Darren’s old Britax Expressway with rigid LATCH (shown in that same area hanging out with the Start and IP)would be the smug, superior Brit played by Hugh Grant. I haven’t decided what the Airway would be like but I’m open to suggestions. LOL!

LOL that the Airway was in the “scary” section ;) . And what did you say those seats were at the end? Mah-estros? LOLOL! You need to move out west where we don’t have accents!

I want to hear more about this twisted version of Toy Story! LOL. I’m envisioning all the combo seats as the Army Guys, and the infant seats are like the little squishy Aliens.

I like your accent, Kecia, but the Maestro pronunciation is certainly something different (never would have guessed anyone would say it that way). That’s a lot of seats! (And I’m jealous of your $30 training vehicle seat!)

Heeey! Quit making fun of my funny Maestro pronunciation! For the record, my first language was actually Spanish (my mother’s side of the family is from Spain and she wanted me to be bilingual) so my pronunciation here is more Spanish than Gringo. ;)
In Spanish “Maestro” is a 3-syllable word.
