D is getting low on clothes. I hate paying full price. She is just going to stain them and grow out of them in a few months. So where do you guys snatch your bargains from?

I do buy some walmart, but I prefer Target clothes. They have great clearance too.

Posted by: boyohboyohboy Apr 3 2009, 11:23 PM
usually the clearance racks and we get them even if the sizes are really huge at some point they will fit..I have found shirts and pants and last year a winter coat for under $3. usually target or kmart

EBAY is a great place to get awesome deals from you just have to watch price, shipping price and check the sellers rep.

Walmart and Target in the beginning of each seasonal change, when they come out with their cheap shirt/short/pants sets.

I always hit the clearance racks at the end of each season too and estimate what size they will be in the year following. I recently got Tanner a winter coat that resembles a Columbia for only $15, and Aiden a winter coat for $8...both for next year.

Jeans are the one thing I find myself buying all year long. I try to hit clearance when I can, but sometimes it's a bit hard.

I'm a JcPenney girl for the most part (blame that on my working there for 5 years) though you can often spot me at the Target or the Old Navy collecting some 2/$5 flip flops which usually leads to a few pairs of on sale pants or shorts.

JcPenney probably actually has the best quality for the price when you know what they're good brands are. They do sell a lot of stuff that I'm not fond of but but their Arizona brand (which is the JCPenney brand made by a popular well known clothing brand whose name I can't reveal wink.gif ) is really good quality.

And those JcPenney towels (which I think are the best for the buck)... totally made by Ralph Lauren! tongue.gif But you didn't hear it from me!

Well now of course I wanna know! tongue.gif emlaugh.gif


I got Brae some Arizona summer clothes last year for like $2.99 for the shirts and $2.99 for the shorts and shoes too.

I'm probably the worst person to ask about getting bargains though. I know I spend way too much on Brae's clothes. cool.gif I can't help it. emlaugh.gif

Lol -- nm I was thinking of the wrong brand (Arizona is the brand I like, but they are actually made by the "Arizona" company... the towels are RL though wink.gif )

I've always liked their jeans and their polos and I buy their khaki/black pants for work. I figure $19.99/pair for pants that have lasted me through 2 years of crawling around on the ground and being mauled by children is a pretty good deal.

I foresee myself being the parent that spends more on my kids clothes than on me... there's too much cute stuff out there. I just found out we have a new carters outlet store in town... I'm headed there tomorrow!

I usually shop at Kohls or Penney's mostly, every once in a while I'll hit Target and very seldom Wal-Mart (usually as a last resort).

Posted by: manda_nae_nae Aug 6 2009, 08:32 PM

Wal-Mart and KMart, mostly. Also, yard sales, the flea market, and there's a consignment sale about 45 minutes from here every season, I get a lot from there.

I just got 6 new outfits for Kylie, a jacket, and two pair of sunglasses at Children's Place for $51! I thought that was a pretty good deal. I wasn't going to buy her any school clothes, but she recently had some issues with her clothes and she's down to about nothing to wear to school now. Hopefully these 6 will get her through the hot days of school. She usually gets enough fall/winter for her birthday/Christmas to last her to where I don't have to buy her much of that.

I love Kohl's when they are having a sale. I also buy from Walmart and Target. I used to buy a lot of Will's clothes from eBay when he was smaller (before he got to the age where clothes were getting worn out before they were outgrown). I am sure I'll get some of Waylon's that way, too.

I find great deals at Old navy and childrens place .

I got dd 6 new summer dresses at old navy for 3.99 each I got for next summer

Childrens place where I am also has all summer cloth on for 3.99 each .

I got last year the kids snow suits for 9.99 for this year , and I think they will fit . I figured if it didnt it wasnt alot and would be a great gift to put away for someone .


Posted by: ChristineA Aug 29 2009, 08:11 PM
I buy a lot from old navy during there season end sales as well as The childrens place outlet store thats in my city. I usually buy at walmart if I need stuff at beginning of a season.

Posted by: Cherie Aug 31 2009, 02:27 PM
If I'm buying, I'd go to Walmart or Old Navy... or even ebay.

Or else I look on "Freecycle" and see if there are any gently used clothes.

Posted by: mommyof4 Aug 31 2009, 02:45 PM
I keep hearing of freecycle can someone tell me about it please.
Thanks

Posted by: A&A'smommy Aug 31 2009, 04:58 PM
Target has some good stuff and good prices.. BUT if you can find a carters store you can get ALL kinds of coupons on top of sales and buy a whole outfit for 10 or less dollars

Posted by: raven092177 Mar 4 2010, 02:23 PM
we usually do wal mart, flea markets and yard sales. i picked Romma up several little dresses last year before she was born from wal mart for $1 each and several outfits and varoius yard sales and flea markets for anywhere from .25cents to $2.00. the other day i picked her up a little skirt for $1 that'll fit her this summer and a jacket for $2 that she can wear next winter at wal mart. i think the highest we've spent on one item of clothing was about $7 and it was one of those snuggy sleepers that babies sleep in.

I prefer to get them from some baby boutique as they have good handmade baby products.
