Disclosure: I am participated in an Influencer Program on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for OshKosh B’gosh. I received a gift card to facilitate my shopping trip and to thank me for participating.
I don’t know about you but I love to see kiddos in cute clothes. It makes me happy! Another thing that makes me happy though is having money in my bank account so how do I find adorable clothes at an affordable price?
Here’s my checklist to save on kid’s clothes:
- I know which stores have styles that I like, that fit my daughter well, and {this is important} are made well.
- I learn the coupon policies of these stores and sign up to be on their coupon mailing and email list.
- I shop sales, I gravitate towards the clearance rack, and I use coupons to save on the newest styles.
- Also, if I shop online I shop through Ebates to earn cash back {OshKosh B’gosh will earn you 3% back!}.
My husband and little one went shopping with me to OshKosh B’gosh and to my surprise they had a lot of fun. My husband enjoyed trying out their measuring tape although I couldn’t believe how big my girl is getting! He also kept a running total for me of the items I was holding, taking into account the different discounts throughout the store. He’s a math guy so this was fun for him. Go figure!
While I didn’t snag any overalls this visit {because we already have some} I was a bit jealous of the price – 50% off!! I almost bought another pair just because it was such a great sale but I held back.
The staff was very friendly but not the kind that follow you around and bug you to pieces {I avoid those type of stores like the plague!}. I was kicking myself for forgetting my 25% off coupon at home but our lovely cashier went above and beyond and gave me the discount anyway since I’m a preferred customer. See, it pays to be signed up for coupons even if you forget them!!
Here’s my little sweetie sporting her brand new sparkly shoes and sweet rose shirt.
This outfit cracks me up – I think it makes her look so mature! This was a summer dress on clearance {around $10 I believe} and I paired it with a sale priced cardigan, red beaded necklace {which she’s carrying in the picture}, glittery gold tights, a blue hair bow, and sparkly red shoes. I think this will be a great outfit for the holidays!
Forgive me for going a little overboard here but she was having such a good time drawing inside her box that I took several pictures and I just couldn’t decide on one. Check out this fleece jacket though – $7 – unbelievable, right? There were many different styles to choose from but I loved this polka dot one.
All in all, we had a wonderful shopping trip to OshKosh and walked away with some gorgeous pieces! We scored all that you see above plus a skirt, shirt, bracelet, and dress that’s not pictured, for only $106. I’ll have to post more pictures later but my two year old could only be cooperative for so many outfits at a time.
For those wondering, my husband predicted a higher total than we owed but that was before he knew the cashier would give us a coupon for additional savings. I won’t do the math to figure it out but I assume he was spot on!
Did I get you in the mood to shop? Well, don’t leave home or shop online without this 25% off your purchase of $30+ {Fine print, Not valid on doorbuster specials, amazing values, and clearance items. Expires 12/31/13.}
