In-store Old Navy sucks! (rant)

First, I'm not a fan of ON and haven't shopped there since college but with the BOGO sweater sale I thought I would check it out.  There is a store by me that has a maternity section so I went.  The "maternity section" was a tiny rack in the back corner and they had very little selection or size options.  I did find a pair of corduroy pants that fit relatively well and two tops so I got them.

Here's where my real rant starts...I get home and decide to look at ON online to see if they have a better selection and I find the SAME pants on sale for $15 when I just paid $32!!!  It said nothing about "internet price only" so I couldn't believe the difference in price!  I decided to order the pants online (actually got two pairs for the price I paid for the one in-store) and return the ones I bought in person. 

Uggg...why do stores make things so hard on pregnant women?!?!

  • I've had the same problems with ON recently.  It makes me stabby.

  • I've had no luck in the stores, but tons of luck online. Once you know what size you are, online is the way to go with them. Between Gap and ON, I think I've spent about $300 in the past few weeks, but have gotten a ton of stuff at great prices

  • This is why I do most of my shopping online. I always get emails for coupon codes, and its so much cheaper. And the best part is I can return them in-store. I hardly buy anything for myself because their sizing is so weird. But I've got my daughter and husband a lot of things from there. Oh, and I think most of the stores with a maternity section is the same setup. It sucks.

  • That's so strange. ON store is totally hit or miss. I would much rather shop there online, they have a TON of on-line only items, so the selection is much bigger. I feel like the store, at least the one here, only carries the basics. The only thing I had about online is the shipping. But you can get good deals. I got all my maternity clothes for LO#1 there it was by far the cheapest I was able to find.
  • Why does ON shove all the maternity stuff in the far back corner of the store?  Its not like we are a bunch of lepers or anything.

  • Yep, I hate ON maternity for the same reasons  :P

  • I was at one of the ON's by me that has a maternity section about a month ago.  I figured I'd check it out even though I didn't need maternity clothes yet.  Same thing, there was one rack that was it.  I'm hoping to get to another around here after Christmas.  I hope they have a better selection.
