[blparent] serching for this carseet I saw that the owner said was $16

[Pickrell, Rebecca M (TASC)]

Last time I looked, I was two inches above the height to need to ride in a booster.

I'm probably too short to ride shotgun safely with the airbags most cars have now.

Safety is good, I just sometimes think they need to make a safer car, v. the ever changing requirements for booster and carseats. I do wonder who and what is driving that.

This sounds like a booster seat--not a full car seat.  If Tiffany is big
enough for a booster, then I'd just look at WalMart or Target and see what
you find.  Make sure you check out all height and weight requirements though
(I'm sure you would anyway) as they are constantly changing and kids need to
be in a seat with a five point harness for longer and longer periods of time
these days.  And they also need to be in boosters with backs for longer
periods of time--not just in a booster without a back and the regular car
seat belt.  My kids are on the light side, which is a good thing in general,
but I feel as if they will be in big bulky car seats forever!
Sorry I couldn't be more help.

OK,  if any one knows what carseet this is I would love the help so I can
buy it.

It looks like the bottem part of a carseet with out a back but it has two
slots for the seat belt to go through.  It also has a tether strap for new
cars.  It was lightwait and looks like it would fit in a bag.  Her's the
ishue, when I asked the person who had it where they got it they said they
thought the person who got it for them got it at Target for $16.  Tiffany
needs a new carseat and I would love to buy this one because it would work
with TOPS when I can't use the bus.  So, does any one knhow what carseet
this is?

Thanks in advance.
Kate
