@ElbieKay: You sound like my DH. We probably spend way too much on groceries because he does them and doesn't like to think about sales or coupons. But it's fine since we can afford it. I'm the crazy one trying to get the absolute cheapest price for everything all the time. He tells me it's not worth my time (and it's probably not) but it's like a game to me. I got $80 worth of kids clothes from the gap for $10 recently and was so excited and DH was so unimpressed. Lol.

@Mrs. High Heels: I wish I could combine the conveniences of online shopping with in person shopping. I'd love to have multiple sizes of what I want brought to me and anything I don't like whisked away. Hopefully with a small carbon footprint. One can dream.

@sunny: that is why I actually got into LuLaRoe... All online, and almost like having a personal shopper haha! It doesn't account for my whole wardrobe, and it's also not cheap and only has a fixed amount of styles so I will never just buy clothes from there, but it sure is handy! I lay in bed shopping while nursing DD2 to sleep

The just opened up in Australia a few months ago, I wonder if it is owned by the same company?

@sunny: I know!! That would be the dream!
For now, I'll settle for the UPS and USPS just a short drive from me, but it is still a pain to repack and return.

@ElbieKay: lol! Every time we get gift cards as a gift my husband and I look at each other and silently agree how hard it will be for us to remember to use them. I once "lost" a $100 home improvement gift card in my house because I put it in what I told myself and him out loud was a safe place. I found it again 6 months later.

We've actually had a lot of cute things from Gymboree. It's a bit much when you look in from outside but we've had good luck with finding cute things (black pants for 1 yo boy, cotton summer dresses for a toddler girl, etc) among the more crazy things that only kids can get away with, and cute occasion stuff from j&J. Actually we've recently bought some casual girls stuff From j&J that was cute but overpriced for everyday. I mean they aren't my favorite but kind of a bummer there will be less options!

Shoot I have 2 gift cards my kids were gifted from Gymboree so I better use them soon! And I didn't know they are the same as JJ, we love them for special pieces.

I am just seeing this now...sounds like I am in the minority here but I like Gymboree for my 5 y.o. DD's basic clothes. Not the ridiculous $50 dresses, but solid jersey dresses and leggings/bike shorts, which is her uniform of choice the last year or two. I feel like they are cute patterns, good quality, and not so "little kid" as some of what we find at carters. We also have several swimsuits that I have liked from there.
The retail prices are expensive but with coupons, gymbucks, and sale shopping I feel like we have gotten good deals.
