Crew) manufactures product specifically for their outlet stores. I don't think they carry the same styles but they're similar styles and of lower quality (if that matters to you). For many companies, their outlets are often the most profitable segments of their businesses! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050949 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 00:08:13 +0000 birdofafeather 1050949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HLK208: yeah I was super excited about the additional 50% off! I have avoided Black Friday in the past but this year I'm heading to the outlets! They are like 15 minutes away from me! Good thing I do forget about them or I'd be in trouble! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050947 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 00:03:39 +0000 HLK208 1050947@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: woohoo!! I love the Gap outlet!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050943 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 23:56:12 +0000 birdofafeather 1050943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@scg00387: oh I better not make a shopping only Instagram! That would be so bad for the budget!! Ha. You're awesome for looking for me though!</p> <p> @emg86: oh you're so sweet! I'm gonna have my mom look at her local store. My closest one is about 30 minutes. </p> <p>SO! I wanted to go to the Carter's outlet anyway to check out sizing for their fall stuff to buy on sale. (Carter's outlet is literally the exact same things as online. No idea why it's called an outlet but whatever.) There is also a baby gap outlet too. DH had to get some stuff close by so I made him drop R and I off. Long story short, I found the outlet version of the jacket and it was 50% off the price that I paid for the real version (which was already 40% off!) so I bought it! I'm still gonna look for the real thing but at least my return regret is low now! :)</p> <p>@allison: the baby gap outlet totally has the "lower" quality version of the regular store stuff. But for a lot of it, it doesn't make a difference! I could tell the difference in this jacket though. </p> [attach=1362/13/msa0dp.600x450.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050915 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 23:17:05 +0000 emg86 1050915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: Yep, basically what @scg0038 said. I'll keep an eye out and ask my Gap store--they had some last week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050909 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 23:09:02 +0000 immabeetoo 1050909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: I don't think there is a great way to do it honestly - you could search #babygap or #peacoat but at least most of the shops I've followed don't use hashtags all the time. People post "ISO" pictures - so you could post that if you have followers you think look at instashops and might tell you? I look once in a while and created a separate account to enter contests and follow shops.. if I see one I'll let you know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050748 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 21:21:53 +0000 allison 1050748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: I have no idea. @scg00387: told me about them, but I haven't gotten into it for the sake of my bank account. Sorry! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050744 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 21:20:14 +0000 birdofafeather 1050744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pepper: i did! i'm watching it right now actually! i was just wondering if there are other options! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050741 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 21:19:37 +0000 birdofafeather 1050741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@emg86: @allison: how do i check instagram shops for a certain item? i am so behind on that kind of stuff! do i have to follow them all? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050736 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 21:17:51 +0000 Pepper 1050736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: Did you see this listing? <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/111149312594" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/111149312594</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050727 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 21:14:34 +0000 allison 1050727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@emg86: Instagram shops is a great idea!

Carter's has a cute one in navy but I fell in love with the gray because I have something similar! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050638 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 20:25:44 +0000 emg86 1050638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've seen it on Instagram shops. Are you looking for it in gray only? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050632 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 20:23:11 +0000 allison 1050632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I second getting someone in the Gap store to call around to other stores. Anthropologie did that for me once.</p> <p>I'm not 100% positive, but I'm pretty sure the stuff that's in the outlet stores is completely different from the regular stores. Like, they make the clothes specifically for the outlet? Which doesn't really make sense but I think I heard that once. Never hurts to look, though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050541 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 19:40:37 +0000 chopsuey 1050541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually check ebay, but if I miss out on something I've found that they always come out with something similar or cuter eventually! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050532 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 19:36:28 +0000 swedishfish 1050532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: thanks!

I thought maybe it was a bigger size. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050477 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 19:00:19 +0000 immabeetoo 1050477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: I bet you could have them check stock in stores if you called? Otherwise setup an eBay alert :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050427 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 18:39:14 +0000 HLK208 1050427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought one off of ebay last week! I don't know how to find them otherwise...maybe the gap outlet? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050426 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 18:38:50 +0000 birdofafeather 1050426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: oh! good idea about the stores. there is an outlet by us, so maybe they have older stuff? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050423 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 18:36:51 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1050423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have that one in navy. LOVE it.</p> <p>I'd check eBay. And hit up the stores. Sometimes stuff is out of stock online but you can find it in store. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050418 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 18:31:40 +0000 birdofafeather 1050418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swedishfish: yeah, we got the 6-12 size originally, but she's in that now and it's 78 degrees here today! so it went back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050412 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 18:25:27 +0000 swedishfish 1050412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh gosh, we got one when R was born but I think it's a 3-6 or 6-9. I'll check. It's actually in the wash now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-a-clothing-item-you-missed-out-on#post-1050406 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 18:21:03 +0000 birdofafeather 1050406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I returned a Gray Knit Peacoat from BabyGap because it was the wrong size and I wasn't feeling it at the time. Now it's all I can think about and of course it's out of stock! I found one on ebay, but I was wondering if there are other options for finding those kinds of items. I ordered it in May, so I thought there would be some left, but nope! </p> <p>Can anyone help?</p> <p>The item number is #4246810120612 and here is a photo. I'm looking for 12-18 month size for R for the winter!</p> <p>ETA: it was just called Knit Peacoat in Gray.</p> <p>[attach=1362/13/ms9kv3.220x220.aclk.jpeg] </p>
