Favorite place to buy...

Alright I am bored.  Both DS and DD have double ear infections and are sleeping soundly at the moment.  So here is a little GTKY/recommend your favorite kind of post.

What is your favorite place to buy...

Diapers? (either cloth or disposable)

Clothing for LO?

Clothing for yourself?

Toys?

Books?

 

Not super exciting, I know, but this board is so dead right now and the mc/loss board doesn't really do the GTKY thing since it doesn't really fit with the board.

  • What is your favorite place to buy...

    Diapers? (either cloth or disposable)It's a toss up between Kelly's Closet and Green Mountain Diapers(They have the best prefolds)

    Clothing for LO? I am big on consignment sales because DD is mostly in dresses/skirts only (just like her Momma).  Consignment sales tend to be a good source of cotton dresses in perfect condition. 

    Clothing for yourself?  I really like JJill shirts because they actually stay on my shoulders.  Skirts and dresses I am less picky about brand.

    Toys? I don't often buy toys.  If I do, I tend toward finding cool stuff on etsy.

    Books? Thrift stores are a great source of children's books.  I also like buying from individual sellers on Amazon.

    What is your favorite place to buy...

    Diapers? (either cloth or disposable) BRU - They always have a $7-10 off coupon and you can combine it with a manufacturer coupon. They also carry the largest size box in my area.  I usually get $10-13 off a box of 144 size 5s.

    Clothing for LO? Target, Old Navy, Carters, and Baby Gap.

    Clothing for yourself? Hahaha.  I haven't bought clothes for myself in a very long time, which was quite evident when I cleaned out my closet Sunday and threw away everything with holes in it and items that were too small.  A chunk of our tax refund will be going to clothing for me.

    Toys? BRU, Target, and Zulily.

    Books? Target, Barnes and Noble and 2nd hand stores.  For the girls, I need to read the whole book before I buy it, so I almost always buy at a store.

    What is your favorite place to buy...

    Diapers? (either cloth or disposable) Disposable - Costco

    Clothing for LO? I love Janie & Jack, but the store closest to me closed down. Right now, I like clothes that don't have some obnoxious saying on it. (Mommy Luvs Me - really, what's dad - chopped liver?)

    Clothing for yourself? I haven't bought clothes for myself in a long time. I would go to: Marshall's/TJ Maxx, Old Navy, Gap.

    Toys? Babies-R-Us, Toys-R-Us mainly

    Books? Anywhere. We're full of books currently, so I like going to the library instead.

    You're right it is dead around here. I feel bad when I see that I've posted a lot, but not many are posting right now.

  • What is your favorite place to buy...Diapers? (either cloth or disposable) We stock up on bags of diapers from woodmans whenever Pampers changes their packaging, which actually happens more than you think :) we bought 12 bags and one value box of diapers for $60!Clothing for LO? Target, JCP and CartersClothing for yourself? Old navy for jeans and target or JCP for shirts Toys? I don't think we have ever bought a toy for DD besides just little ones from the dollar section. We take a lot of hand me downs and she has 3 sets of grandparents so they do most of the gifting :)Books? Marshalls or Target I think I could just live at Target!!!

    I love Janie and Jack too. Unfortunately the only one close to me is an outlet downstate (90 minutes away).  I have found some great deals on Janie and Jack clothes on ebay though.

    What is your favorite place to buy...

    Diapers? (either cloth or disposable) ---- target or amazon

    Clothing for LO? ---- 85% of her stuff is from Carter's.  (I'm probably the one mom of a girl that doesn't get crazy excited about shopping for her.  Carters has cute stuff and it's cheap!)

    Clothing for yourself?  ---- 85% of what I have bought for myself post DD has been from Old Navy.  (Not that I have bought a lot, but most of what I have is Old Navy.)

    Toys? --- Buy Buy Baby or a local toy store

    Books? --- for me?  library (I guess that doesn't count since you said "buy") or the half priced used bookstore (when browsing) or amazon (for something specific).  for DD --- we got a bunch at costco before the holidays (4 packs of Dr Seuss board books!), some at a local toy store

    Diapers? either cloth or disposable I buy huggies from target usually because they have the big boxes and usually have gift card deals with them

    Clothing for LO? I love the children's place and crazy 8 although I rarely shop there since I think the prices are too high; we have a few second hand shops I go to a lot and Target of course

    Clothing for yourself? I don't know what that is lol

    Toys? I think it is hilarious because I never buy toys yet my house is full of them. Seriously I have purchased maybe 3 toys.

    Books? Same thing as toys but I do love to look at Barnes and noble for kids books

    I am the same way.  With all the gifts from family and friends, my kids have far too many toys.  I don't really mind not feeling a need to buy toys though.

  • What is your favorite place to buy...

    Diapers? (either cloth or disposable) disposables from Target or BrU, whoever is cheaper at the time when we need to buy them

    Clothing for LO? Carter's, Old Navy, Target, Crazy8 or BabyGap if something is on sale that I like. I also shop at a fantastic consignment place near me that only accepts quality stuff. :-)

    Clothing for yourself? Lane Bryant

    Toys? Target or Amazon... I haven't gotten a toy for her besides a small one for Christmas in months though. She got so much for her birthday and Christmas from the Gmas and Pas.

    Books? Public Library! We got a lot for her birthday/Christmas because I made an Amazon wish list for her, but I don't typically buy books for her. I did get 3 small Dr. Suess boards books at Barnes & Noble because they had B2GO before Xmas.

    We do cloth, and I like Jillian's Drawers. 

    Clothing for LO?

    I hardly buy any, since the ILs love to shop for him, plus we get handmedowns from some folks.  What I do buy I usually get at a consignment store.  Some of my favorite outfits are from Janey and Jack and Baby Gap. 

    Clothing for yourself?

    Ha!  Been a while...I figure why bother since I SAH and also plan to get pregnant again soon.  But I used to hit up the outlet malls and shop at Tommy Hilfiger, Banana Republic, Gap, J Crew. 

    Toys?

    Amazon. 

    Books?

    Amazon.
