I always seem to miss out on the Baby Steal Trumpette Sock sale and I refuse to pay full price for them. Because I'm in Canada, many of the sale sites don't ship here, and if they do the costs & fees are ridiculous theres really no point. I'm not even sure Amazon.com ships to Canada because they have a canadian site (but doesn't sell 1/10 of what the US site does)
Are there other sale sites I should be looking at? Any tips on where to get them a la cheap? (but not knock - offs)

Do they have Target in Canada? I've bought them there before, and they always seem to be on sale whenever I've bought them.
(These are the socks that look like shoes for babies, right? I might be thinking of the wrong thing.)

@Rock n Roll: We don't have Target yet! in 2013!!! 
But yes, the socks that look like Mary Janes or T-Straps. Sienna's feet are narrow that no shoes fit her.

I've found them at TJ Maxx/Marshalls/HomeGoods a few times, which I guess would be Winners or HomeSense for you in Canada? I think the Target ones are made specifically for Target, so probably lower quality (although still super cute!)

@Rachel: Ya, I'd have to check Winners. I just hate it... they don't have a website and their stock changes constantly. egh!

@blushink: Yeah, those stores are so hit and miss... I go there a lot - no kids yet though, so I guess it's easier for me to pick through racks. I've gotten them for my niece a few times for like, $8-$12 for a pack of 6 pairs

Another brand you can look for is Jazzy Toes...similar concept, maybe you can find some websites that ship?

@blushink: oh, too bad! Shipping to Canada can be such a pain in the butt!

@Mrs. Jacks: yes i know i get the notification... but dang their international shipping costs more than the product itself. So far only baby steals has been worth it.

@blushink: ooh oh! They are having a sale on gilt groupe right now for them! It will be around until tomorrow at noon I think. Under the baby & kids section. They are so darn cute.

@blushink: I forgot you are a Canuck! (even though you clearly say so at the top. I just get too excited about Zulily I guess!)

Marshalls, TJ Maxx, Target, Amazon, and eBay are all places I've seen them for fair prices. I always see more options for girls, too, so hopefully you'll have some luck!

@blushink: awww!! I bought two sets from the babysteals sale... I feel greedy now. I got the ballerina and T-strap ones, and I was thinking I don't need both... I'll sell you one (if you want that style) for the price I paid plus shipping costs!

@mrs. wagon: OMGoodness are you serious? I mean... honestly you were able to get the 2 you shouldn't have to give any of them up?
GOLD / papaya / 10206 posts
@blushink: I'm in the same boat as you!!! I can't find them anywhere and I'm not willing to pay a zillion dollars for shipping and brokerage for baby socks. I live close to a border so next time I'm over I'll look, if I see a good deal I'll let you know and good ole Canada Post can ship them 
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@blushink: well I really think I don't need both, so when I get them (I think they just shipped) I'll let you know which ones I'm gonna give up and just let me know if you want them!
