PSA: A Pea in the Pod

Alwaysusie

This might be old news at this point, but through today (Sunday), Pea in the Pod is having a sale where you get $20 off $100, $50 off $200, $100 off $300.

I didn't know about the sale and when I went in the store last night to make my *first* maternity purchase, I got a great suprise when my 7 Jeans were $50 off! 

They were a splurge but they fit amazingly well and I'm even more excited for my bump to appear and to have to start wearing maternity.  I might go back today and see what else I can find...

Oh wow! Thanks so much for posting this! I was planning on holding off buying them until I really needed them, but with the discount I'm going to buy them now. They NEVER go on sale!

Different strokes for different folks. I don't wear Gap, Old Navy, Kohl's, etc jeans non-pregnant, I've always just planned on buying the same type of clothes for maternity.

I bought two pairs of $100 jeans, and I make no apologies for it.  I wear them almost every day, and they were the only ones I found that actually fit me.  IDK why everyone gets their panties all in a bunch about what someone else spends on maternity clothes.  I have friends who owned 10 pairs of pants at $20 each, and that's the same amount of money overall--if you can find cheap stuff that fits and you're comfortable in, more power to you--but don't judge those who can't or simply don't choose to.

...Yes? To me, I'd rather have a few high quality staples that I can wear throughout my pregnancies (this is my first of hopefully three) and feel really great about then spend these next few months in clothes that I just don't like. Not saying that it's for everyone, but that's just how I feel.

Exactly!  Quality over Quantity for me,  

Also Pea in the Pod has buy one get one free on their basic 3/4 length t-shirts, which are so comfy.  I bought 6 of them, 2 maternity bras and a pair of dress pants for less than $200 after all the discounts.

Too bad I had already bought my Joe's Jeans a couple weeks back because I knew I would be wanting them.

I spend 100+ on my normal non-preg jeans, and since I stay at home, I live in jeans most of the time. Why would I not invest in pregnancy jeans. I could see maybe if this was my last or only pregnancy, but I hope/plan to have 2 more so these will certainly get their share of wear.

I bought a pair of jeans from Motherhood for $40 and I don't even think they were worth that much. They stretch out the elastic in the band is only tacked in one place...yuck. And the ON pair I have is only long enough to wear with flip flops which is not an option in winter months at all.

I guess I just look at clothes as more of an investment. And lets be honest about the time line...I have 6 months (or a little less) left of pregnancy, and have no illusions about the fact I will not be in my pre-preg jeans leaving the hospital.  lol

I only wear jeans maaaaybe 1 day a week since I work full time, and I still think designer jeans are worth the investment.
