Try garage sales? We've had pretty good luck for jumpers and things like that. We have a crib, a pack n play, a swing, bottle warmers and clothes, a walker, car seat bases, car seat, etc... We got all of this for under $40 just at garage sales. But about his complaining, tell him to man up and support you because it takes two to make a baby. Tell him that by getting uses things your probably saving hundreds of dollars that could go to a bill or something like that.
