Before DS6 was born, my first baby purchase was an older pack n play from an auction (for $1). I used it in my barn. I pulled a sheet over it when not in use to keep it less-dirty. When I did barn chores I put him in the playpen. It worked out great. I didn't use it in winter though!

Another SS-specific baby purchase was I got a little baby beach tent for my garden to keep him out of the dirt and sun. That one was definitely worth it. I used in in winter power outage - set it up in the living room, put blankets over it, put a dog and cat in it to warm it up for kids. I pulled it out in January to break up the monotony. Until it broke It lasted 5 years, not bad.
