So one of DH's aunts contacted me asking if I wanted some of her baby gear (she has a 6 yo and a 2.5 yo). She offered a breast pump (which I don't need since my insurance fully covers a medela pisa), a jogging stroller, and a baby carrier made mainly for hiking.
The problem is that I don't really want them. I've done a lot of research and decided on a city mini gt and an ergo carrier (and now kind of have my heart set on them). I just don't know how to say no without hurting her feelings.
What should I say? Should I just take the items and not really use them (though my choices are on my registry and she is definitely invited to the shower, so she would probably figure it out)? I don't want to seem ungrateful because it's so nice of her and I really do appreciate the offer. Ugh. I feel like I'm acting spoiled and mean.

I don't imagine a carrier made just for hiking would work for a NB anyway.
