My mom shops a lot at Gymboree though so not too often. My mom surprises me, though. Just glancing into Gymboree I wouldn't love the bold kid-ish styles so much. (Sorry I have no fashion terminology...just some stuff is LOUD if you know what I mean!) But we have some really cute stuff from there now (which I pair with other brands!) As for Crazy 8 I think they have some great sales. I don't really shop there now that lo is a toddler but when she was a littler baby I thought the styles were pretty cute for the money. (And I also paired them with other stuff.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701572 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 13:56:06 +0000 rattles 1701572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like them fine for play clothes, but I find they aren't quite as well made as Gymboree. I think of it as akin to Old Navy/Gap. One's a bit more classic and well-made, but one is more affordable and on trend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701524 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 12:52:10 +0000 loveisstrange 1701524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Crazy 8 is a little funkier than Gymboree, and cheaper! lol. C has had some really cute stuff from them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701490 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 12:18:31 +0000 Boogs 1701490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not huge on them myself, but I have a relative who loves them. So, I think it all depends on your style preferences. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701447 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 11:28:04 +0000 MrsRcCar 1701447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: I love buying some of N's funky clothes there. I love all the skull stuff they carry !! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701444 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 11:25:46 +0000 .twist. 1701444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@beaker: isn't that funny? There have been some things that I have really turned my nose up to, and then those things ended up being some of my favourites! It's so different once you see them in it, and they really make anything look cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701442 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 11:13:24 +0000 Mrs. Tiger 1701442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was gifted this crazy newborn set from them with walruses on it (walruses!) But I actually grew to love them :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701430 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:57:18 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1701430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: I haven't been to their store in over a year - just looked at their website and their summer stuff is kinda cute.<br /> Maybe I just didn't like their winter stuff :-P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701424 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:54:03 +0000 .twist. 1701424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: some of it seems reeeeally beachy, like I need to live in Hawaii! Haha but I do like the little skulls and stuff, that is what drew me there. I totally know that isn't for everyone though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701423 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:52:48 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1701423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They have decent prices. We've bought a few items there but I'm not too keen on the style. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701422 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:51:37 +0000 .twist. 1701422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: oh yea, isn't Gymboree expensive? So ridiculous! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701420 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:49:20 +0000 Weagle 1701420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: I agree about Gymboree. The styles of Crazy 8 are way better. But the price is lower with the same quality. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701418 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:46:39 +0000 .twist. 1701418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StbHisMrs: hm, I might. I'm only going to be there tomorrow and then don't know when I will ever get back there. I'm not even completely sure I will be able to cross the border since I am not sure I have proper ID. We think I do and are going to try any way. Worst that can happen is they will turn us around and we have to come home. Which is only a 10 min drive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701417 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:44:40 +0000 StbHisMrs 1701417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: If you sign up for alerts they'll email when they have sales, which happens frequently! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701415 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:41:22 +0000 .twist. 1701415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StbHisMrs: yea! They have a bit of attitude. :) good to know about wearing though. I will keep an eye out for sale stuff. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701413 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:39:48 +0000 StbHisMrs 1701413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It has a more "attitude" than Gymboree, I like it for play clothes because they seem to get a lot of wash wear even when washed carefully. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701411 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:36:13 +0000 .twist. 1701411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: oh! We do have Gymboree, I find their clothing a little too.... I dunno, cutesy? But while looking though the crazy 8 website, they seem to have lots of I little skulls and funky stuff, which is more my thing. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701408 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:31:52 +0000 Weagle 1701408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like it a lot for play clothes! They're cute and well-priced. We also got a bathing suit there for LO last year that held up really, really well.</p> <p>Eta: Its owned by the same company as Gymboree and Janie and Jack. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crazy-8-do-you-shop-there#post-1701406 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:30:46 +0000 .twist. 1701406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My parents might be taking L and I into Spokane tomorrow. I noticed at one of the malls they have a kids store called crazy 8. The stuff looks pretty cute, but I've never been there and don't know the quality or anything. </p> <p>How do you American ladies like it? </p>
