Gymboree: That's the way (uh huh) I like it! (addicts/fans part 7!) [Archive]

This was posted at GR about the outlet...looks like prices are 10-20% off Gymbo's regular prices.

Here's the info:

Just got back from the Jeffersonville outlet. I got there a little early (9:30) and the ladies opened the doors early for me and another lady waiting. Here is what I thought. By the way, I took a few pics before they told me I couldnt take pictures, so I didnt get everything.I dont have a boy (that wears Gymboree) so I only glanced at the boy stuff, sorry.

Big Girl: only two lines were Sweet Cupcake and Puppy Love. The SCC colors etc were basically identical to those of the original line. The PL line was blue and brown .

Baby Girl: had PL, SCC, and Bon Voyage. BV was pink (powder pink) and navy.

Boys: had the leaping frogs layette line. The big boy stuff was orange with lizards ? Sorry, didnt look closely.

Sweet Cupcake: all three pairs of jeans, several sweaters, and long sleeved tops. Tops didnt have the glittery stuff the original line did, and no fancy embroidery. I thought they were so-so, definitely NOT worth the 14.99 they were charging for them. They also had hair accessories, the dresses (striped and one other), and a denim skirt. Also had three different hoodie sets from this line - the hot pink, blue, and gray)

Puppy Love: again, the colors were blue and brown . They had the brown Gigi jumper and dress blouse. The jumper seemed a little thinner than the original -no lining. Also the Rufus sweater and beret and denim skirt. And the brown pants and jeans with dogs embroidered at the bottom hem.

Bon Voyage: I was SO disappointed that there was no Big Girl BV!. There was a pink sweet pleats dress- it seemed thinner and not as twirly as the original. Also the kitty cafe sweater, the striped poorboy, and the kitty tee. I liked the kitty cafe sweater and the tee. Also there were velour hoodie sets in baby girl sizes for this line- I thought there were super thick and soft. Overall I thought the quality of this line was the best except for the Sweet Pleats dress. But I didnt care for the powder pink color. Oh yes there was also a soft beret in this line,and a blanket.

Prices:

Jeans 24.99- and the jeans were much thinner than the jeans in the store. Pants were the same price.

Skirts 19.99 same as above, although I did buy the SCC denim skirt.

Hoodies: 19.99

Velour pants: 14.99 BABY GIRLS were less- 16.99 and 12.99 I think.

Sweaters: 24.99 (good quality overall though)

Tops: 14.99 I thought that was way too much considering the quality.

Dresses: 19.99- 24.99 And the quality was

Hair doodads and socks 3.99

4 in 1 coats 49.99

Sherpa coats 49.99

Other things I found out- definitely only up to size 9 for the girls. They do not plan to have sales, and you cannot use a FOG card there, or earn Gymbucks. I think they will have to have sales to clear some of the stuff out. T hey plan to have a new line every 4 weeks or so.

Colleen

August 26th, 2005, 03:01 PM

I love Sweet Cupcake so hopefully there will be more auctions for the new SC outlet stuff so I can get my hands on some for a bit less than that one, ouch!! My gymbo order shipped yesterday so now I wait...

Someone else posted about SCC leggings being $12.99 at the outlet. Not bad if you need them to complete an outfit but not a great price. (I think the originals were $12 or 2 for 20!)

So how nice is this.....

My ex husband's wife Amy just called me from Gymboree waaay out where they live. She found a ton of stuff that she knows I wanted for the girls for next Summer in the Pool Party line. So she went through the racks with me on the phone, described them piece by piece and grabbed a ton of stuff for Lily and Isabella. She said she's going to put it all on hold for me until we come out there to pick up Austin tomorrow night. If we can't make it before they close she offered to go buy it for me and then I can just paypal her back.

She and I have started a really great friendship over the Summer. We're starting to have lunch together every week. She's the one who owns a bunch of resale shops and is giving me all of last years Mod Zebra and European Holiday in Isabella's size.

Anyway, thought I'd share my Gymboree excitement for the day.

WOW Jen - that was so nice! :faint:

Colleen

That's awesome Jen!

By any chance, do you think they'd have the PP blue flip flop bikers in a size 4 I'm IDSO? :awink:

mrs.knip

August 26th, 2005, 08:49 PM

Wow Jen that is so great! It must make things so much easier when you can get along well with your son's stepmom!

That's awesome Jen!

By any chance, do you think they'd have the PP blue flip flop bikers in a size 4 I'm IDSO? :awink:

I'll have to look Colleen. She said they had a ton of biker shorts, but Lily isn't a big fan of them. If they do I'll pick them up and get them to you.

I think that was a really good deal!!!

Okay, I posted this a few pages back, but I don't think anyone saw it, so I have to post it again. :lol: I just won this auction - do you think this was a good deal?

I think you got a super deal - I looked at your auction the other day but forgot to post. Love the set!!!

Me too! Me too!! I love the dress!! Very cute!! Also forgot to post! Sorry! :blush1:

August 28th, 2005, 11:26 AM

Personally I think I'd comment on it based on this "Again, this is NOT to be considered play condition and if you didn't know how this set looked brand new and I hadn't mentioned fade, you truly would think this was in excellent condition and that I was crazy for even mentioning it!" She made a big deal saying it's just light fading.

AahRee

August 28th, 2005, 03:01 PM

Thanks you guys! I was starting to wonder if maybe I'd gotten a horrible deal and no one wanted to say anything! :lol:

Anne, if you'd want to return it and get your $$$ back, I'd say something. But if you'd like to keep it anyway, I'd leave it alone, and maybe mention the fading in your feedback. (IE, leave a positive, but state that fading was more than expected.)

Sandy

August 28th, 2005, 03:04 PM

I agree with Nichole, Anne.

And, to the other Anne, I think that is a great deal, particularly w/ the jacket included.

I am rolling on ebay lately, but ran into my first snafus. I won a TTT dress in 3t for Rayna for next year. The seller said it was only worn once and was like new. Baloney. Although it is faint, there is CLEARLY a huge stain all over the front of it. It looks like orange juice, or something. It was obviously something she knew about when she washed it, but didn't reveal. Even my husband noticed it. I have emailed her twice to request a refund and have asked her to respond. Nothing as of yet. Her user name is nemosnax.

THEN, I decided to try auctionsniper after Karri mentioned it in a thread somewhere. Well, I was particularly coveting one outfit, but there were a few I used the sniper on to give it a try. Free and all. I won two, but the one I really wanted something got screwed up. It just says status undetermined. The auction was up and a two piece outfit was won by someone else for only $6!!! I'm so pissed! And even worse, I was sitting here at the computer and didn't put a bid in because I knew sniper was supposed to.

However, after bitching about all that, I really have gotten a ton of clothes for Rayna. I will find some pictures of some of the stuff and post in a bit.

Sandy,
Try esnipe! I've never had that happen with it. I can't wait to see your ebay loot! :biggrin:

JustJen

August 28th, 2005, 04:54 PM

I just signed up for esnipe. I hope it works.

Miss Colleen- I didn't find the flip flop bike shorts. Although I ended up buying a ton for next summer for the girls. Between Friday afternoon and me getting there last night, I guess the sold a ton more stuff. I'll be on the look out just in case I happen upon them.

Alysia

August 28th, 2005, 04:57 PM

I only used ESnipe during the 2 week free trial but it worked great! :thumbsup:

JennyB

August 28th, 2005, 05:01 PM

Anne-

I would at least attempt to contact her via email before you leave any neutral or negative feedback. I know if I were a seller I would want someone to give me the opportunity to try and rectify the situation.

I would probably say something, especially since the fading is so obvious and she seemed to go on and on about it in the posting....making sure you realized it wasn't in play condition. It's misleading.

I went over to Gymboree today because Emma wants to be a flower for halloween and it is much cheaper than the Tom Arma costume so we got it. It fits just around her face so her little face sticks out of the flower perfect.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v228/Jenny416/140007962.jpg

And since I was already spending that much I figured I would get to $50 so I could get my Gymbucks so I picked these up.

Bonnie

August 28th, 2005, 11:33 PM

Stopped by Gymbo yesterday with Caroline... she liked a few things from CG and she liked the ladybug costume, but in the end we didn't buy anything. Her dresser drawers are overflowing and I think I have enough fall stuff from all the stuff we bought last year. So, I think I will actually skip Gymbucks for real this time.

Dori

August 29th, 2005, 06:25 AM

First - be aware of the ebay seller! julesmomto2princesses!! I bought an outfit on ebay from this seller on July 8th. I never got it, never got it, never got it.. so I emailed her. No response. Gave it about a week, emailed again. No response. Gave it another week, again no response. So after a month and a half of not outfit and not returning emails I filed a dispute with ebay and VOILA she appears. She says that I wanted my outfit shipped to Ireland but I only paid US shipping. 1)I emailed her BEFORE winning the outfit to make sure she could ship to Ireland AND to get the shipping cost. 2)The minute I won the outfit I emailed her and said it was going to Ireland. She sent me an invoice, and I paid it. And the shipping was $5.95 and that is right around what I am usually charged to have things shipped her. So, instead of contacting me and letting me know she decides to just keep my money and the outfit???? She responded through the dispute saying she has been sick, blah, blah, blah.. and as soon as I paid more money she would ship it. I said NO WAY and I wanted my money back.

She said this:
I will file the dispute through eBay for nonpayment to get my ebay & paypal feesback so that I in
turn can issue a refund as as resolved disputed both parties have reconciled or agreed upon no purchase
of thei item. Let me iknow if this is okay. Jules

And I said this:
I don't care what is done as long as I get my FULL refund back and it does not affect me negatively
in any way.

That is where it is now and that was two days ago! :tongue2:

Jenn

August 29th, 2005, 08:02 AM

Another Ebay opinion needed: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6793501823&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1

I felt like I got such a great deal on this, but her "barely noticeable" fading is CONSIDERABLY more than barely! This thing is practically dark gray instead of black! Is that something I could really comment on, being as she did say it was faded, or do I have a case based on the fact that she said it was "barely noticeable" when it's anything but? Thoughts on feedback?

I would definitely say something. I had won an auction for a dress that had a 'barely noticeable' white bleach spot on it and when I got it, I couldn't believe just how noticeable it really was. I emailed the seller and sent her pictures and she refunded all of my money plus my shipping costs for sending the dress back.

Hopefully, your seller will be just as accomodating. I really don't think she represented the item correctly if there is that much fading.

Jenn

August 29th, 2005, 08:07 AM

So, has everyone seen the pics for Rocky Mountain, that's due out in a couple weeks? I'm in love with this line and can't wait because I already warned my DH that just might be buying the entire line. :lol: It also helps that my sister just got a job at Gymboree, so now I get 40% off again! :banana:

Dawn

August 29th, 2005, 09:15 AM

Jenn, how awesome that your sister got a job there! 40% off for you again! *insert jealous smilie here*

For me, I'm not too keen on the RM line. The stripes of it, we got stripes from CG already, and it's looking alot like CAAB. It is cute...but so far I didn't see anything I'm in love with (and besides, we're not into horses). Maybe when I see the entire line....

Colleen....what size PP shorts are you looking for again? Let me know what color and if they're the flip flop shorts you want....so I can check for you. I was suppose to go last week and never went. I'm hoping to go in the next couple days (I actually need to go....to bring something back and to check out the sales rack for myself). If anyone else needs me to check on anything....let me know. I don't want to say I'm going today in case I don't....but I will be going within the next couple days. :lol:

Dori

August 29th, 2005, 09:24 AM

I am LOVING the Rocky Mountain line!! Lauren loves horses and I love the colors!!!

Colleen

August 29th, 2005, 09:53 AM

Thanks Jen for looking for the shorts for me! I do appreicate you trying. :)

Dawn, thanks for offering to look too! I got an email yesterday from a woman on one of my loops who found them for me! So, right now, all my ISO's have been filled! :woo:

August 29th, 2005, 01:34 PM

Ok, so who's going Gymbuck crazy and who's keeping themselves under control???

I think I fall into the "crazy" category or else right on the border line. I have $375.00 in gymbucks already!!! And I was sooo confused when I got them because there isn't one gymbuck for each $25 anymore. It's one gymbuck that counts as a certain amount for the amount you spent on the receipt. I almost flipped out when I got home yesterday and saw that I had only one gymbuck after I spent $200!!! I called the store up ready to flip out on them when they explained that they are doing it differently. They said that plenty of people were confused.

I just love CG and RG but I'm trying to hold out until redemption time. I'm just hoping there will still be plenty of it left by then.

Oh and I bought Abby the puppy purse from CG and it so soooo freakin cute!! She just loves it!

Ok, so who's going Gymbuck crazy and who's keeping themselves under control???
I have $375.00 in gymbucks already!!!

I have the same amount. $375.....
Although there's a couple things I'm going to return.
I haven't received my online purchases yet and I found some at the store in a better size. So I might lose one gymbuck. Oh well, I'll live....

I've stocked up on a ton of things for next Summer for the girls. Plus bought a lot of basics for Isabella. I'm not fond of the last couple lines, so I'm hoping the next couple are better. I'm starting to really like the horse one. Anxious to see the ballerina one that's coming out for the holidays.

Dawn

August 29th, 2005, 03:39 PM

Tori, Alexia has that same puppy purse from CG! Whenever I 'go crazy' on a line, she's allowed to pick out one accessory of her choosing...and that was it! :)

No, I'm keeping my cool and under control. The last line I liked was CG, and I didn't even like RG or anything after that. looks like I'll be calm with these new lines....less money to be spent on Gymbo over here! :lol: I may get the kitty sweater though in TP...and maybe the brown/peach yoga set in TP too...we'll see. I'll be going there in the next couple days...

Dori

August 29th, 2005, 04:13 PM

I have $50 in gymbucks now so under control so far. I am loving RM so I think some damage will be done when that comes out. Even though, she doesn't need one more dern thing for fall OR winter!! :blush:

mrs.knip

August 29th, 2005, 04:25 PM

I more than likely won't have any this time. I really love RM though - I am hoping some of it will still be around when I get to a real gymbo the first part of November. Although I did see a pic of a shirt that has "CowGirl" printed on the front that may have to get bought right away! :)

August 29th, 2005, 04:38 PM

:crossfingDori and Anne, keeping my fingers crossed that your bad experiences work out OK.

I just got these in the mail for next Valentine's Day! http://gymbohaven.com/04vale43.jpg

I've only earned two gymbucks (or the equivalent so far) and I keep thinking that I don't know exactly what I'll spend them on... if nothing else I can buy Caleb some underpants ahead... since I'm having underwear envy with all the PT discussions going on!!!

I can't find Ahna's PP outfit... don't know how I could have lost it. The set has the bike shorts and a onesie... hopefully it will turn up!!

Do any of you post much at GymboHaven? I seem to spend most of my time here, but do poke around there.

Also, I'm tempted to go to the mall tonight after work to exchange the duplicate onesie I bought. What evil that shall bring remains to be seen. :tongue2:

Oh, carp. I love it! :lol: And I love MBF, too. And I'm definitely going to love Prima Ballerina, because I danced for 13 years. So, I'm basically totally screwed, aren't I? :lol:

Bridget

August 29th, 2005, 06:13 PM

Well... by poke around I meant I have two posts. :supergrin

I don't ever post at gymbohaven.com. I only have so much time man!! ;)

I can't wait for Prima Ballerina either! I never got to take ballet lessons, so I'm obsessed with that stuff.

Jenn

August 29th, 2005, 09:08 PM

I don't really plan on worrying about Gymbucks this time around since my sister will get 40% off of RM, for me, with her employee discount.

Lyndee

August 29th, 2005, 09:20 PM

I've got one Gymbuck so far (but it's from unecessary purchases :lol: ) . I'll probably get another one when we sign up for Gymboree class. I'd really like to have 4 but I'm holding myself back- I need some fall stuff too! I've bought tons of stuff for both kids already. I like MBF but talking myself out of it. I think I'll like RM too but if it's too much like CAAB, I can probably hold back as well.

Colleen

August 29th, 2005, 09:43 PM

I have none. Yes, none. I've been so good I've even shocked myself.

I'm holding out for some sort of Labor Day sale so I can get Gymbucks and tax free. (Tax free week in NY starts tomorrow.) If that doesn't happen, I'll wait for the rumored FOG in mid-September to buy MBF. Someone better get me a card....since I've been hooking all you people up in the past. :awink: :lol2:

Julie

August 29th, 2005, 09:51 PM

No Gymbo shopping for me lately either. Too busy with everything else and whenever I think of shopping I feel guilty for all the stuff I have stockpiled to sell :lol:

Kath

August 29th, 2005, 10:05 PM

I don't have any Gymbucks yet either. We've been away off and on, and I missed this past sale. I'm holding out for a Labor Day sale too, but if not I'm SURE I'll get at least a few GBs since I'll be buying for birthdays and to get some more fall/winter clothes. Chase starts preschool next week so YAY, I get to officially "back to school" shop! :) I'd also love to stock up on a few things for next summer if my stores have anything left. I can't believe I haven't been inside a store since redemption!!!

Bonnie

August 30th, 2005, 12:11 AM

Not crazy about what I'm seeing from RM... I like the horse jeans, but we don't need jeans... I'd get them if I liked the tops, but I hate those ruffles around the neck, so it looks like I'm going to continue sitting on the bench with Gymbo... good news for my wallet anyway.

Bridget

August 30th, 2005, 12:40 AM

OK, as one of my final posts of the night I'd like to show this and note that every not-quite four month old needs a Gymboree charm bracelet that looks like this.

http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a177/bellsnickels/Misc/1822c634.jpg

And I'm still missing charms for several of the lines we've got:
-Apres Ski
-Tiger Love
-It's a Girl Thing

Mommy just loves collecting things!

JustJen

August 30th, 2005, 01:37 AM

OMG that is Lily's 2 ton bracelet. She has EVERY one from the last year I swear. I know the manager of our local gymbo from high school so Lily walks up to her while I'm shopping and hands her all the charms she doesn't have. So when we get home I start sorting through my bag to find MORE fook in charms! Although, Lily is 4...now 4 mos old.OK, as one of my final posts of the night I'd like to show this and note that every not-quite four month old needs a Gymboree charm bracelet that looks like this.

I love the bracelet, too! I just started collecting the charms, so I have a lot of catching up to do, but I *do* have an extra set of Apres Ski, if you need it, Bridget. ;) I was planning to make a scrapbook page and ebay it, but I just haven't had time lately and I'm way behind on my other scrapping, so if you want it, it's yours. I'm actually hiding the bracelet from Katie right now so I can give it to her for Christmas. And I'd like to have it totally filled in by then, with all the lines she's ever owned. :lol: We'll see!

I'd love a card as well if it isn't a problem! ;) Thanks!

I think I'm getting one already....how would I know? I've gotten them the last few times around.....did I need to do anything to stay on FOG??

OMG that is Lily's 2 ton bracelet. She has EVERY one from the last year I swear. I know the manager of our local gymbo from high school so Lily walks up to her while I'm shopping and hands her all the charms she doesn't have. So when we get home I start sorting through my bag to find MORE fook in charms! Although, Lily is 4...now 4 mos old.

So, when she wears the bracelet does she really wear all the charms? I change Janelle's charms, so like when she is wearing hide and seek I just put the hide and seek charms on... I just think a bracelet with that many charms would clash and would be really heavy for my little 21lb toddler.

Dawn

August 30th, 2005, 01:51 PM

Alexia wears all her charms on her bracelet. She only has 6 or 8 charms though. When she gets more, I may just do what you do, Jillian.

AmyP

August 30th, 2005, 02:28 PM

Everyone, I will let you know when I get back from work tomorrow if/when there wil be FOG cards. If there are, I'll clear out my PMs and let you guys PM me your addresses since I'll need those anyway. :)

Yep, she insists on wearing ALL of them at once. She caught me trying to take some off and FREAKED OUT over it. I swear it has to weigh 5lbs.
I maybe have to "accidentally" misplace a few of them.
I'd much rather her wear just a couple on there, but Lily definitely has her own little plan in her head.

Sandy

August 30th, 2005, 06:29 PM

I would love a FOG card as well, if it is no trouble. Jenny, don't feel bad, I was about to ask what the hell a FOG card was as well! :lol:

TtownAnne

August 30th, 2005, 08:22 PM

WOW. Talk about a seller! Working on resolving my faded yoga suit, I sent an email to the seller today not even threatening neg. feedback, just saying that I was disappointed in the condition because it's considerably more faded than she implied. She offered me $10 back! :woo: Her email is kind of crap ("I did intend for it to be read as "faded" and don't feel I was dishonest in explaining how it looked" - then maybe you shouldn't advertise it as LIKE NEW, doofus!), but I can handle a yoga suit for only $9.99 after the refund. More than I would have expected...

JennyB

August 30th, 2005, 09:53 PM

It's good to hear she was able to resolve it to your satisfaction.

August 30th, 2005, 11:14 PM

Well, after getting outbid 3x last week, during the last 30 seconds of each auction [I can't justify ensnipe's fees after the trial], I finally won 2 separate auctions to coordinate Ashton with Alexis' CAAB:

Ashton
http://www.gymbohaven.com/fnewau12.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/fnewau11.jpg

Alexis
http://www.gymbohaven.com/fnewau62.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/fnewau53.jpg

I wanted to get the same shirt for Ashton but was getting outbid to the point of it being more than retail. So I got the sweater for $16, which is way less than original retail, and it will hold up for Alexis to wear down the line. I got the velour leggings for Ash - she looks so great in them since she is such a skinny-mini!

What do you think? I am trying to do coordinating sets, not identical.

AahRee

August 30th, 2005, 11:22 PM

Cute combos! I love CAAB!!!

Dawn

August 30th, 2005, 11:24 PM

Cute Amy! :up:

I'm trying to find Ang a CAAB outfit that will coordinate w/ Alexia's.

Nicole

That is a good corrdination Amy, I prefer coordinating to matching too!

August 31st, 2005, 11:46 AM

You're a better person than I am, Anne - Caroline tried to tell me she was only going to wear dresses and "fuzzy pants" (i.e., knit), and I said no way was I letting half of her closet go to waste and she'd have to get over it! :lol:

AahRee

August 31st, 2005, 12:01 PM

Bretta, which AS do you have? I was looking at your FT one... is that available, by any chance? ;) We have the TL one already, but in a 5....

Anne, I'm just realizing that it's not a battle I want to fight. :lol: I'm sure that, as soon as I get rid of all of her jeans and what not, she'll decide she hates dresses and only wants to wear jeans. :rolleyes: I just LOVE preschoolers and their decisiveness. :lol:

BTW... last night, I found a bottle of wine at the grocery store that I couldn't resist. It was called Mad Housewife Merlot. :lol: It was very, very appropriate for my day yesterday! :lol:

AahRee

August 31st, 2005, 12:34 PM

:duh: :lol: Sorry - I figured that. Hmmm.... I'll have to check with Katie about that one, but I'm interested. I just bought her the AS fuzzy boots, actually, and need more things to go with them. :lol:

Dori

August 31st, 2005, 12:43 PM

Katie has decided that she's only going to wear *princess dresses* and *softie pants*, and I can't persuade her otherwise, so I'm getting rid of all of her pants outfits that don't qualify as *softie* according to her. :rolleyes: Apparantly, *softie* refers to leggings and velour pants - and even then, only certain leggings qualify. :rolleyes: So, if you're looking for size 6 stuff, I'll be listing it in the BST forum. :lol:

Gotta love having girls. I dread those days.. I am sure it will lead me to the BST forum as well!

AahRee

August 31st, 2005, 12:53 PM

Well, it's actually been several weeks of this now, and I don't see an end in sight too soon, unfortunately. :( I am keeping a few things, and she has some playclothes that are jeans and cords, but I can't see having 7 or 8 pairs of long pants or jeans for a child that only wants to wear yoga sets and dresses. :lol:

JustJen

August 31st, 2005, 12:58 PM

Lily went through a phase this summer where she "hated" bike shorts. She refused to wear them. Now she thinks they're great and wears them under dresses. Amazing what a few weeks can do.

Dawn

August 31st, 2005, 01:01 PM

August 31st, 2005, 01:05 PM

So glad Abby loves all her clothes and like Alexia just wants to coordinate with her sister and have matching hair pretties. No fighting about that, yet.

Tori Lynne

August 31st, 2005, 01:05 PM

Hey guys, don't forget I work at Gymbo now and can get FOG cards for everybody if and when they come out. I work tomorrow night, and I'll ask my manager if she knows about any upcoming FOG events. :)

That would be excellent!!!! And I'm so glad someonw asked what it is because I had no idea either!!!

Alyssa

August 31st, 2005, 01:16 PM

Gotta love having girls. I dread those days.. I am sure it will lead me to the BST forum as well!Aidan and Colin are very demanding about what they wear/won't wear too...of course, it's about hockey or Red Sox shirts (or for Aidan nothing with buttons) - not princess dresses!! (Er, TG!)

JustJen

August 31st, 2005, 01:20 PM

*KNOCK ON WOOD* So far, I haven't had ANY probs with Alexia wanting to wear a particular type/style of clothing. I'm sure the phase will come at one point. She wears anything I put on her. The only thing she insists on half the time is matching her sister (whether wearing the same thing, coordinating things, or something that's at least the same color as her) so I try to do that when I can. She loves matching her sis!

Lily LOVES to match Isabella too. Sometimes matching me too. When I was pregnant with Isabella she insisted on us matching. She'd keep going and changing her clothes to match me. I'd put on a pink shirt, she'd put on a pink shirt. It was very sweet, but I felt like I was walking around with a mini me. She looks JUST like me.

Jillian

August 31st, 2005, 02:46 PM

Janelle claims she only wants to wear dresses...but since she is so skinny pants really don't fit she doesn't really get much choice.

AahRee

August 31st, 2005, 03:25 PM

Does anyone else have the Grown With Love raincoat? It says not to wash it - but has anyone tried? Even handwashing? I would like to wash the liner part before I try to sell Katie's, but I don't want to ruin it. :dunno:

Lette

August 31st, 2005, 04:04 PM

not me.

Oh and my daughter was in that soft pants phase last year. This year it seems to be dresses... BUT

I know she will love this sweater and I think I'm going to pick it up tomorrow.
Which of these 2 pair of pants do you think would go better? Would the leggings look funny?

They both look fine, but I think I'd go with the pants myself.

TtownAnne

August 31st, 2005, 04:12 PM

I'd get the plain brown ones (is that a pink stripe on the side?). The animal print makes it look too busy.

Nicole

August 31st, 2005, 04:34 PM

I would not buy the brown velour track pants to go with the sweater, you either need to go with the print ones or a pink pair, or even jeans. Track pants with sweaters are a no no in my book.

Anne~ Glad you got some of your money back on the GC set!

Karri

August 31st, 2005, 04:34 PM

I dont know, Lette. I dont think I'd pair it with either pair of pants. The leggings are too busy, and the other ones just dont "go" to me. Yeah, the colors match, but they look like yoga pants and I wouldnt pair yoga pants with a sweater. KWIM?

I would either go with the leopard skort or I would just get the sweater and pair it with jeans or corduroys.

Dori

I'm going to get Janelle the pink skirt and the brown pants with pink belt thing (though you'll never see the belt since the sweater will cover it) to go with this sweater.

I really have no idea how the leopard print matches the pink kitty sweater, I know that's what gymbo is suggesting in their outfits, but I just don't see it.

These bottoms...

http://www.gymbohaven.com/teache141.jpg-but you'd want the kid girl ones not the baby girl ones.

AahRee

August 31st, 2005, 07:33 PM

Lette, we have the leopard print skirt and the brown velour pants, and both look cute with the sweater, but I'd get the matching velour jacket to go with the pants and get the leggings (or skirt ;) ) to go with the sweater.
ETA: I agree with Nicole and Karri that the velour pants are too casual to really *match* well with the sweater. :nod: And I definitely think the pink skirt Jillian posted would be adorable with the sweater!

AmyP

August 31st, 2005, 10:14 PM

I don't have cards yet, but you guys can go ahead and send me your addresses for when I get them (not sure exactly when).

Lette

September 1st, 2005, 08:17 AM

Thanks everyone for all of the suggestions. I too felt the pants were too casual and the leggings too much. :crazy:

I'll probably get the leopard skirt and a plain pair of jeans.

Oh and I already have a pair of pink corderoys that should go nicely! Thanks for the tip Karri! :)

Dawn

September 1st, 2005, 09:07 AM

Lette, I may be getting that sweater too for Alexia (she loves it) and I'm just going to have her wear it with blue jeans and/or a blue denim skirt. :nod:

Amy - Did you get my address? I know I sent it earlier, and wanted to make sure. ;)

September 1st, 2005, 09:39 AM

Gymbo is having a sale again. 20% off sale. Not on new stuff. :( Bummer, I'm hoping there'll be some MBF left for when it's on sale. :lol:

I picked out the pieces that I really like, and it totals $250! :eek: I think I'm going to pare it down to one outfit per girl, and skip the skirt/sweater combos (unless I can scoop them up on sale later....) and just get Sabrina the swing top and leggings, and Avery a top and leggings when it goes on sale.

Guess I'll be waiting to get Lex her sweater!

Jillian

September 1st, 2005, 10:53 AM

I ended up buying the TP stuff last night, but I ended up just getting the skirt and sweater and not the pants since they only marked down baby girl! Grrr, wth is up with that? It's ok, she really needed it in a 2t to fit right this fall anyway, but I wanted to get the sweater and pants in a 3 and the skirt in a 18-24 so she could wear it for the next few winters.

I also got her the RG purple dress, white cardigan, and sweater hat...some velour green leggings that will work great under her turtle costume (I think they were from hide and seek or mod zebra) and some black velour leggings and fox trot charms.

Bridget

What I'm most upset about is that they STILL have no marked down kangaroo hop!
Grrr...I just need the stuffed animal, I wouldn't mind the sleeper (sold out most places in 12-18 though) or the two piece sweat suit (it would make cute jammies) but I only still need the dang kangaroo toy, and it is still full price. This was released with Chelsea Girl!

Hilary

I'm annoyed that the wings for dress up haven't been marked down, even though they keep saying they are 20% off they aren't. Madelynn REALLY wants them.

I used to go into the store and drool over all the cute clothes but it wasn't until this past weekend that I finally bought some clothes for DS. Now I can't get enough. I have $150 worth of clothes in my cart on the website just waiting on the OK from DH. My birthday is coming up in a couple of weeks and I was going to ask for perfume but I'd rather get these clothes for Zack. :blush1: If I get these clothes I will have a total of 4 gymbucks! :banana:

I'll let everyone know for sure if I get them Saturday. :)

I got these - the vest is actually for NEXT winter, so it starts at a 3T and Caleb is still in a 2T. And I'd been looking for the pants in 2T... Caleb looks cute in orange and they'll match his CZ boots.

I hit the sale rack and got the following mostly in 3t for next summer:

I post mostly over at the other site but wanted to let you know about my outlet trip today. I live a little over 20 minutes from the MI one and it closed this week to get rid of the old and bring in the new. So it opened back up with the new lines today

copied from BOLU:
BACK FROM The OUTLET.... stopped back home for a second before we head to Gymbo class and lunch..

I LOVE THE NEW STUFF http://baby.ourlittleuniverse.com/images/smilies/nod.gif http://baby.ourlittleuniverse.com/images/smilies/nod.gif http://baby.ourlittleuniverse.com/images/smilies/nod.gif (contrary to people on GR) !!! I love puppy love in blue and BV in pink. My favorite things are the pupply love dresses and the BV velour reversable suit. I had so much fun.

I will post pictures this afternoon and pm everyone. Hair accessories were 4 for 7.99! That was awesome. There were 15 people in the store when I left. It opened early and I got there at 9:45 and left 20 minutes later.

I will be going back for all of the SCC sweaters. They are all so cute and soft. I have to wait for a sale so I will call every week to see when they are having one. They will get new lines in a month but they don't know what.

I don't know why people on GR were complaining about the quality of the outlet stuff. To me, its the same as what they are making right now. The thinner pants (like CG) and such. I don't own the sweat pleats dress so I am not sure if its different or not but all the sweaters felt great in my opinion. I have the blue BV sweater and it feels exactly the same.

The velour sets in my opinion at the outlet are way better than the ones they have in CG, RG right now http://baby.ourlittleuniverse.com/images/smilies/nod.gif so soft and think and reversable is awesome. I loved the SCC sweaters, I loved the green sweater with the cupcake but just didn't like the green color for Olivia. That sweater is very soft. All the sweaters felt great from that line.

Alot of people who buying and oohing and aahing. I think the people complaining are power gymbo sellers and feel it will hurt their sales. Hey I will buy some of this stuff next year if people are selling it. I don't care, its cute and that is all that I am concerned about.

Eventhough I have a boy also , I really didn't check the boys stuff out very well since I am going to use my Gymbucks for Ethan. They had a construction line and alot of the shirts looked very cute!

I was buying for some BOLU'ers so here are some pictures of our loot.

Thanks Bridget. You couldn't be more right about needing diversions periodically. I won this on ebay last night for this fall/winter. Adding to my growing obsession w/ all things Hide and Seek:

Sandy

September 2nd, 2005, 09:45 PM

So cute Eva!!!

Kath, I have seen that adorable dress up on ebay a few times, so I bet you can find it. Particularly if it is listed now, you might get a deal since it is a warmer weather dress!

Lisa, I think that outlet stuff looks great! Wow. I particularly am drooling over the dress posted w/ embroidery on the bottom.

Yay to others who love HNS!!! I LOVE those last pants you posted Bridget, but I haven't seen one pair up on ebay.

kim

September 2nd, 2005, 09:46 PM

I have a question now though. Was this ABL dress HTF? I saw it on one little girl and decided that I HAVE to find it for Katie for next spring/summer!!

http://www.gymbohaven.com/abirds95.jpg

I LOVE it!

that whole line was a stinker sales-wise so that wouldn't be htf...i'm sure there will be a ton of them on ebay come spring selling season. start looking in late january.

i think that would look adorable on katie! it was one of the better pieces that's for sure. that bird frightened me :lol:

AahRee

September 2nd, 2005, 10:27 PM

I love that dress, too, Kath. I almost bought it for my Katie a few weeks ago. I made a *best offer* of $13, including shipping, and the seller said she couldn't let it go for less than $16 shipped. I only had $15 and change in my paypal at the time, so I declined it. I'm guessing it would go for less than $10 at auction right now, anyway. It might be tough to find until Jan. or Feb., though, since most sellers don't want to sell their summery stuff right now, because it wouldn't get much $$$.

Thanks!

I just was sorting out the clothes I bought last fall for Caroline for this year... Holy Crap! I have WAY more than I though I did!! Tons of SFF, HNS, CAAB, MZ and some other stuff. Thank God she is on the petite side these days and this stuff will probably fit her this fall and next fall unless she has some insane growth spurt. I am definitely not buying her anything this fall... (well, maybe definitely is too strong a word).

AahRee

September 3rd, 2005, 12:48 AM

Wow - this is a great deal for someone! Right now, this auction has about a day left, and it's only at $14.99 - for a TON of BP stuff! Sizes 4 and 5.

Hi Amy!

If you have extra cards, I'd love to have one! Not a biggie if you don't.

Thanks!

PM me your address and I'll do my best to make sure you have one (I haven't gotten them yet).

Sarah's photo appointment is at 12:20 eastern, so we're leaving for the mall in a little over two hours. I believe 16 of you want cards, so I'll try to get at least 20 (for friends of my own and extras in case somebody here doesn't ask before then). Hopefully they'll let me have that many. The main store manager is off today, and I don't know the managers who are working today. No idea what they'll agree to. A lot will depend on whether or not the store is busy, I suppose. FOG was supposed to be really hush-hush, but obviously that didn't happen.

Worst-case, I'll try to go back Wednesday night since the manager I work with will be there. Next week isn't my week to work, but I'm sure I can find a reason to hit the mall anyway.

Sandy

September 3rd, 2005, 10:02 AM

Kim, just curious, which of the lines other than ABL were not good sellers? Or which were the best sellers?

AmyP

September 3rd, 2005, 02:38 PM

I got the cards, and quite a few. Will get them out this week. They're good from 9/16-9/18. :) I have one for everyone who PM'd me, and probably enough for about 10 more people (I think).

kim

September 3rd, 2005, 02:46 PM

Kim, just curious, which of the lines other than ABL were not good sellers? Or which were the best sellers?

i've only been buying for the past year and ABL really stands out as the one that tanked. that and the fugly easter dresses (sorry if someone liked them).

bonjour provence hung around my stores forever as well.

btw: i hear that yes they will be emailing the cof 'cards' to people :biggrin:...you always hear they won't...but they always do.

Jillian

September 3rd, 2005, 10:15 PM

I think the striped tiger love pieces didn't do too well, and a lot of mod zebra did pretty badly, and I managed to get a ton of sugar cookie for super cheap. Also bubble fun hung around forever!!!

Colleen

September 3rd, 2005, 10:25 PM

Jillian, apparently you haven't been trying to buy Mod Zebra on Ebay lately. :faint: It's a very hot seller. (Except for that darn pleather skirt. :awink: )

It seems lines that tanin stores do well on Ebay the following year....I don't get that logic. :dunno:

Right now, the "fall lines" are selling well....the more "wintry" lines will start selling better come October.

Spring Fun flew out of my store, once the Red hot dot sale hit, it wiped out Bonjour Provence too. Tropical Paradise sold well, and a lot of Pool Party did as well.

Kath: Your "hard to find" pieces will be things that were Tier 1 and online only. Less were made and distributed, therefore, more difficult to find.

I agree, both A Bird's Life and Petit Fours were stinkers. Hung around the store and then some.

Jenn

September 3rd, 2005, 10:53 PM

Well, I took Chase to his preschool open house yesterday and alot of the little girls were decked out in Gymbo dresses! SO cute. I have a question now though. Was this ABL dress HTF? I saw it on one little girl and decided that I HAVE to find it for Katie for next spring/summer!!

http://www.gymbohaven.com/abirds95.jpg

I LOVE it!

I know that this line pretty much tanked but I think this dress is HTF. I have it in a size 3 and desprately want it in a 12-18 or 18-24 and haven't had much luck. I was looking dilligently for awhile, on ebay, and if I found it, it was going pretty high.

I wonder if people are waiting til spring to sell them. :dunno: We had a ton sitting on our rounders for the longest time.

AahRee

September 4th, 2005, 04:44 AM

I think people are waiting for spring. :nod:

My guess as to why things that tank do really well on ebay the next year is simply supply and demand. If, for example, the CG sweater duster sells really well, and a TON of people scoop them up and keep them NWT to sell next fall, the supply of them is going to outpace the demand. Whereas something that didn't sell as well might sell better on ebay, because it will be *HTF* and exclusive at that point. :dunno: Just my theory!

I got two ebay packages today! One was the Holiday Magic jumper, and the other was the Holiday Magic coat, mittens and hat, and the Victorian Charm dress. The seller somehow thought the VC dress was from HM, but the reds are totally different, and I didn't catch that when I bid on it. Fortunately, though, I have the HM jumper that Katie can wear with the coat. I just need to find a dressy top for underneath it. And she can wear the VC dress seperately - I just need to find a coat for it if she's going to wear it for Christmas. So, add a few more things to my ISO list, I guess! :lol:

Sandy

September 4th, 2005, 11:32 AM

Interesting - when I was at gymbo the other day there was a lot of pool party on the sale racks. I was surprised b/c I thought that was one of the better selling lines this year. There was no Spring Fun at all, and a little BP. I managed to get several PP shirts for $5 each and the little PP dress for $11. The BP dress was $6. Really great prices.

I got a ton of things yesterday b/c I finally went in to the office for the first time this week. With the hurricane, we haven't been able to, for a variety of reasons. Anyway, I was in Gymbo heaven. The two Strawberry Patch outfits I got will fit her now, even though they are supposed to be 3T. I tried one of the pants on her yesterday and they just fit her now! So, she will be wearing those next week. I guess when she gets potty trained they may fit her better (if she doesn't grow otherwise) but they may be going up for sale next year! Glad it is still hot here until well into October!!!

AmyP

September 4th, 2005, 02:31 PM

I am probably going to hit Gymbo tomorrow (when we went in yesterday, Sarah was tired, so it wasn't a good time to shop). I am going to grab some stuff for next summer and just ebay it if it won't fit next summer. I know my store has a ton of PP left. Some BP and TP as well. I might grab the SF sandals too if the pair we have on the rack will fit Sarah (if they're still there of course).

These are the sandals I saw in the store when I was working on Wednesday:

http://www.gymbohaven.com/summer8zz6.jpg
I figure she can wear them now and I'll just sell them with the rest of her SF stuff next spring.

AahRee

September 4th, 2005, 04:32 PM

Has anyone else seen the big pictures of RM on the Gymbo website yet? You can find them by going up numerically through the image files. TOO cute! I'm loving the sherpa poncho, the sweater dress (which is only baby girl, I have heard... bummer!) and the ADORABLE costumes, too. We're going to Gymbo on Tuesday, so I'll report back on how they look in person then!

Hilary

Bridget

September 4th, 2005, 04:38 PM

I wonder if sometimes sales of lines vary regionally? My stores here are and have been wiped out of pool party, and there's several 12-18 items I want for next summer. :tear:

Eva

September 4th, 2005, 06:43 PM

My store was wiped out of PP as well :( I wanted to get some for next year but there was absolutely none of it left. There was also no more TP. The only Summer lines they had was AW.

AmyP

September 4th, 2005, 06:59 PM

What pieces do you guys want? I can look for them tomorrow if you tell me which pieces and sizes.

Kath

September 4th, 2005, 07:00 PM

I went today looking for PP for next summer...nothing. :( No TP or BP either. Oh well. Of course I still managed to spend $55 and get a Gymbuck anyway. :blush:

Bridget

September 4th, 2005, 07:20 PM

That's so nice Amy! I'll look over my list and post tonight when things calm down around the house a bit - my inlaws are here so I'm sneaking on right now!!!

What pieces do you guys want? I can look for them tomorrow if you tell me which pieces and sizes.

AahRee

September 4th, 2005, 08:50 PM

I'll look on Tuesday, too, but it will be after the additional 20% off sale, unfortunately. :(

Hilary, I'll post the starting link here to the first one in a second. Then you just go up numerically. I'll see if I can post some of the other links here, as well.

Oh, never mind. They actually posted the pictures in a couple of threads on GR! Here's a link to the one with the KG pictures. There is one with BG pictures, and one with boy pictures, also in the New Lines forum! Much easier to just look there than to surf around Gymbo all night. :nod:

I am SO loving this line. I might have to insist that Katie wear jeans, just for the cuffed horsie jeans.

AND... did you all know that Claire's boutique has earrings that match a LOT of the Gymbo lines? I saw earrings that would coordinate perfectly with PP, CG, TP and even some horsies that would coordinate with RM, I think! Just in case you don't have enough to shop for... :lol:

i think i know where my $50 visa bonus is going!

Hilary

September 4th, 2005, 09:43 PM

oooooooooh! I like it. Considering we're moving to a state with a cowboy riding a horse on the license plate I think I'm going to have to get some of this. :lol:

Hilary

September 4th, 2005, 09:46 PM

The horse reminds me of the MZ zebra.

AahRee

September 4th, 2005, 10:00 PM

It reminds me a little of the zebra, too, although I think the colors for this line are MUCH more wearable for more kids. I bet this will be a HUGE seller. Plus, the sherpa poncho is going to come in a Mommy size... I'm hoping the fair isle sweater will, too. :nod: And yeah, you definitely have to get some in honor of your move to WY, Hilary!

Fortunately, I'm going shopping with my MIL on Tuesday, and she ruined Katie's SFF dress, so she feels bad and will probably buy her an outfit of my choosing. :devil: :lol:

AahRee

September 4th, 2005, 10:01 PM

I'm bidding right now on a set from EH, and it must have a stinking HIGH reserve. My bid (I'm the high bidder) is $42.25, and I still haven't met the reserve. :( It's all NWT and all that, but still. Sheesh!

Jillian

September 4th, 2005, 10:18 PM

Jillian, apparently you haven't been trying to buy Mod Zebra on Ebay lately. :faint: It's a very hot seller. (Except for that darn pleather skirt. :awink: )

I know, it's big on e-bay, but it didn't seem to sell well in stores...I could of bought about 4 mod zebra size 4 sweaters just last month at the ann arbor gymbo...I understand though, I HATED mz last year but Janelle has 3 complete mz outfits for this winter...including a hat, the fur coat, and the maryjanes. :blush1:

Jillian

September 4th, 2005, 11:05 PM

I LOVE the layette squirell sweater dress! Janelle has so many sweater dresses, but this will be a must have since this is most likely her last winter in layette.

I also love the racoon sweater from the newborn essential line.

Hilary

September 4th, 2005, 11:32 PM

Hunh, I didn't see those.

Jillian

September 4th, 2005, 11:34 PM

You need to go to the other GR threads, there are bunch of them in the new lines section, a few for bg/kg rocky mountain, then one each for boy rocky mountain, the new girls layette, and the 3 (girl, boy, gender neutral) newborn essential lines.

AahRee

Bridget

September 4th, 2005, 11:48 PM

As usual, I can't get my GR login to work. No one there will ever respond to my pleas either, grrr. I guess I should stop paying for it.

Amy, I've been so busy tonight I didn't get much chance to do my PP search. Here's a couple things I'm looking for. The caveat - if you do find something I may not be able to pay you until next Saturday, since we're leaving on vaca and I don't know if I'll be able to jump on the internet or not (I'm sure I will at some point, but not sure when). So if that's not OK, I understand!

In 12-18 I'm looking for either:
http://www.gymbohaven.com/pool2028a.jpgor http://www.gymbohaven.com/pool2027a.jpg
The flowery shorts are my preference.
and
http://www.gymbohaven.com/pool2016a.jpgor http://www.gymbohaven.com/pool2012.jpg
The white tank with flowers is my preference.
If they have this yellow tank, I definitely want it.
http://www.gymbohaven.com/pool2017a.jpg
And I'm thinking these only came in KG:
http://www.gymbohaven.com/pool2058.jpg
I'll be the fool buying all this on ebay this winter. :tongue2: :tongue2:

Jillian

September 4th, 2005, 11:53 PM

Jillian, can I tell you how jealous I am that Janelle fits into Layette ANYTHING at this point??? :lol: Especially the sweater dresses, which I ADORE. I'm seriously hoping that the RM sweater dress has a KG version we haven't seen yet, but if it doesn't, I will be buying the LF one at J&J. I need a sweater dress for Katie for this winter!

I've noticed that there are very very few kg sweater dresses...I hope this changes in 2 years cause seriously, at least 75% of Janelle's winter wardrobe are sweater dresses, I love them! Though, I'm not a fan of the fair isle one from rocky mountain.

I'll be very upset next winter when Caid can't wear layette...the layette boy stuff is adorable, but I'm not a big fan of most of the baby boy lines...I'll have to start shopping at gap for him then. But it won't bother me much for Janelle...the is only 1-2 pieces per layette line I like for her now, she is just getting to old to wear "baby" clothes if that makes sense...and she'll be 4 next winter...

Eva

I love the RM sweater dress. :nod: The layette lines are adorable as well. I have to remember "no more dresses". I have gone slightly overboard on them this year.

AmyP

September 5th, 2005, 06:55 AM

I'll print this out before I go to the mall today. I'm pretty sure I can find some of it. I thought I saw the halter top at the store. Not sure, though. I think the yellow tank was there as well as the splash top. I'll grab whatever I can and put them on separate transactions.

I'll probably hit it in the morning. We're trying not to go out much with gas prices being so high, but I'm going to get cabin fever if we don't. The nice thing about that is a lot of people around here are doing the same thing. DH went out Saturday night with a friend and the local Bennigan's was just about dead. He said the mall he went to on Saturday with FIL was pretty dead too. This means, provided Miss Sarah behaves herself, I can shop in peace!

AmyP

September 5th, 2005, 03:19 PM

Sorry, no go on PP. There were a few things on the rounders, but most of it was in a box. My manager was by herself and she wasn't sure where the box was. :(

I managed to get this stuff for next summer for Sarah, though:

http://www.gymbohaven.com/pool2096.jpg (will scour ebay next winter for matching swimsuit)
http://www.gymbohaven.com/poolsl3.jpg
http://www.gymbohaven.com/alohaW60.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/alohaW52.jpg
and a pair of basic pink socks from SF

I found the sandals I posted earlier, but they only had one pair with no tag. The nearest store didn't have any, and I wasn't sure they'd fit Sarah anyway so I gave up on them.

Too bad about the PP stuff. Think it'll make a comeback on the sale rounders next spring for some kind of RHDS or something??

So, I wasn't a big fan of Petting Zoo...and I'm not a huge line-mixer either, but I bought these pants for Katie this weekend and I LOVE them!! She wore this today (from TP) and looked so cute!! (Ok, I'm biased, but still... ;) )

They'd also match with the basic ribbon top from RG and the lacy-collared shirt from CG. I wish I'd bought them sooner!!!

Actually if you do a search for Rocky Mountain it will all come up but it says it is all out of stock! :lol:

I am in so much trouble though cause I love this line!

I did that. I like it a lot too. Boy, some of the boy's stuff is really cute too. I like the moose sweaters.

Since Amy had no luck, I will be happy to run over to my Gymbo and see what PP they have left in those sizes.

AahRee

September 6th, 2005, 02:34 PM

I'm going to my Gymbo today, too, so I'll look for your PP stuff for you all. :) I *think* all of RM is up now! Including the Family Dressing. But I HOPE that's not all the family stuff, because all there is is one measly Dad sweater and the Sherpa Poncho for Mom. No Fair Isle sweater for mom, which is what I really, really want to see! :complain: I hope it's just not all up yet...

AahRee

September 6th, 2005, 02:35 PM

Oh, BTW... the sweater dress is only BG. :bawl: So, I guess we're going to J&J as well, for the LF one.

Sandy

September 6th, 2005, 02:58 PM

I am just not loving RM for some reason. I like MBF better.

I am on an ebay roll. I got both this dress
http://www.gymbohaven.com/newaug73.jpg

and these leggings from HNS
http://www.gymbohaven.com/newaug78.jpg

for $10!!! I would have even gotten them cheaper if one other rookie ebayer hadn't jacked up the price three times in about the last 30 seconds!!! I wasn't going to get anymore NHS, but at that price, I couldn't pass it up. I don't like the two together, but they will work separately w/ other things in this line.

I also just won this whole lot for $17. I don't have any tights at all, so I thought this was a good deal to get two onsies, two sets of tights and a dress for that price. Onsies I can always use. I think the dress is pretty, and I hadn't really ever looked at the Snow Angels line before.
http://i8.ebayimg.com/03/i/04/d7/ef/b8_1_b.JPG
I also received a package today containing my first Folk Song purchase and I LOVE it!!!
http://gymbohaven.com/August128.jpg
http://gymbohaven.com/August142.jpg
I don't love everything on this line, but I really like this set. I want to get a couple more shirts to go w/ these pants. I spent a little more, $17 w/ shipping for this, but still don't think that is too bad.

Also made my first foray into the Sweet Cupcake line by getting this outfit for only $9.39!
http://gymbohaven.com/SweetC124.jpg
http://gymbohaven.com/SweetC51.jpg

Whew. Well, I think that's it. I am trying to stick by my rule not to spend much more than $5 per piece on my ebay bids. I am getting high on the excitment. How sad is that? :lol: Since I am a new gymbo addict, every line is new to me!!! I need to quit it though, these all start to add up!!! I am trying to justify it by saying that I can always turn around and sell them to make some back once we are done w/ having kids!!!

Bonnie

September 6th, 2005, 05:58 PM

I don't love RM... I think we're skipping it. I like the colors, but just not loving any of the pieces. I'm glad I loved so much stuff last fall, or we'd have nothing this year!

Eva

September 6th, 2005, 06:15 PM

I don't really love RM either. Not fond of the horses...Actually I am getting really tired of all their animal lines.There are a couple of pieces I like but I will probably skip this line.

I do like the BG Sweater dress but Emma really does not need more dresses. I have gone a bit overboard on them this year.

http://gymbohaven.com/horse.18.jpg

I also really like this jacket but I am kind of scared of what the pirce tag will be here in Canada:
http://gymbohaven.com/horse.17.jpg

Layette is cute espcially the white sweater dress but a white dress is asking for trouble IMO. :lol:

I checked for PP at our Gymbo today, but it's apparantly all in boxes up high now, and won't be back down until RHDS. :(

I got a cute RG outfit for Katie, though, just to get a GB. Why I didn't wait until FOG, I don't know, but I was there, it was cute... and I'm a sucker! :rolleyes:

And I got the TP and MBF pony-os.

AmyP

September 6th, 2005, 08:55 PM

I like RM okay. Sarah needs a winter coat, and I like the one Eva posted.

I think I like this one better, though.
http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140003908?$126x160$

It's a little more expensive. I'll have to see what FIL will agree to spend.

I like this outfit too:

http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140003858?$126x160$http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140003880?$126x160$http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140004470?$126x160$
or possibly these pants and socks instead:
http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140003884?$126x160$http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140004431?$126x160$

but I honestly probably won't be getting them anytime soon. Sarah doesn't really need anything. If I get them, maybe it will be in 12-18 months since Sarah will probably move into that size before it's warm enough to wear spring/summer stuff. She has some stuff in that size, but not much. I just don't want to go buying a bunch of it until I have a clue how much she needs.

Okay, she hasn't even worn them yet (but they're on sale now, unfortunately) but I'm already sick of looking at her CG stuff. :lol: I'd take them back if they weren't marked down already. I'm wondering what I was thinking with the short sleeves and skirts! :disbelief Actually, it's mostly the short sleeves. I should have ordered online and gotten long sleeves instead. :( And the sweater coat - I should have just gotten the shorter sweater. The sweater coat looks kind of silly with the skirts, now that I think about it. :lol: Someone remind me why I bought that thing???

September 7th, 2005, 11:29 AM

Thanks Sandy! I love it, too. I think I'm getting rid of the CG sweater coat and one pair of the tights, if anyone wants them. They're sold out online and in the stores now, so they're doing well on ebay, but I'd sell them for a little less here. If anyone is interested, PM me and we'll chat. I'm not going to do a BST thread for it, because if no one is interested today, I'll probably just go straight to ebay with it tonight.

Dori

September 7th, 2005, 11:47 AM

The coat is a lot of money but if you haven't ever had one it is worth the money IMO. We buy the whole ensamble every year.. coat, snow bibs and hat. I waited last year for it to go on sale and ended scouring gymboree's because they were out of Lauren's size. So this year, buying it all now FULL PRICE! They are great! I was waiting for the snowsuits to come out. Last year they were in the hide n seek line in August! Its in my cart, ready to be ordered. With a couple other resistable full price items! :blush:

JennyB

September 7th, 2005, 11:53 AM

Has anyone seen these boots in the store? I am trying to figure out if they are warm enough for snow boots or are they just cute.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v228/Jenny416/140004572.jpg

I like the coat, snow pants and scarf. I think I will use my gymbucks to get them. The coat also has the jacket inside so you are really getting two for one.

AahRee

September 7th, 2005, 11:55 AM

Jenny, I think the boots wouldn't be very waterproof, unfortunately. :( Suede is horribly impractical, but SO cute. :lol:

Dori

September 7th, 2005, 12:14 PM

There's a scarf?? Must check it out!

I think the boots are adorable too but the snow would get in where it ties up.

kim

September 7th, 2005, 12:42 PM

if you like the 4 in 1 coats you can get some deals on ebay. i got the folk song one for $10 and it's pretty much the same coat in lavender.

Hilary

September 7th, 2005, 12:58 PM

Darn! I had DH convinced we could get those boots for both girls for snowboots. I guess not. I don't want their feet freezing!

September 7th, 2005, 01:06 PM

Anne, I know what you mean about the CG stuff. I only bought 2 outfits in BG and haven't even taken the tags off of them but I just don't love them. What was I thinking?? Oh well....

Dawn

September 7th, 2005, 01:15 PM

Okay, she hasn't even worn them yet (but they're on sale now, unfortunately) but I'm already sick of looking at her CG stuff. :lol: I'd take them back if they weren't marked down already.
Anne, why wouldn't you be able to take them back? With a receipt you should get full price for it, no?

Anyway....I hear ya. I still really do love CG, but the more I think about it, there's a couple things I got that she won't get good use out of. So I plan on bringing these back:

http://gymbohaven.com/aug05l47.jpg http://gymbohaven.com/aug05l25.jpg

and then I still can't decide which skirt I should bring back! :tearhair:

http://gymbohaven.com/aug05l43.jpg or http://gymbohaven.com/romant4.jpg

Oh and Anne, for what it's worth: I got both the sweater duster AND the shorter cardigan sweater. :lol: I loved them both.

Sandy

September 7th, 2005, 01:24 PM

Wow, this thread is moving. Anne, I didn't even see your post about CG, I was talking about the RG outfit you posted above that! :lol: Sorry for the confusion. I don't know enough about CG to know whether I like that or not!

No way. Another one who likes variety over here. Besides, I haven't liked the last few lines anyway. :lol: No seriously, I like my kids to have variety with different fashions and different styles. Going 100% gymbo wouldn't allow me to do that. All their clothes would sort of have that same style, kwim? I dress them in about 5 different brands....and they all have their own different styles and looks. :)

Sandy

September 7th, 2005, 03:50 PM

AS to the GQOTD - no. I would like to get other clothes as well. Naartjie, for one. I covet some of those outfits but they are too rich for my blood on ebay. Baby Lulu and other stores as well.

Plus, I like ON, Gap and TCP. I just wouldn't have to worry if my spending was excessive, I guess would be the main difference.

Lyndee

Jillian

September 7th, 2005, 04:22 PM

umm :blush: Kincaid has no non-gymbo outfits for winter...not a single piece of his 18-24 month clothing isn't gymbo and we have a lot...

But Janelle, no...there are too many cute things for girls at other stores...there is no way I could do just gymbo for her.

Ohh...and when Caid is out of rompers and layette I'm pretty sure his wardrobe will have to come from somewhere else, cause I just don't like the baby boy lines (with the exception of a few rompers from them)...

If money were no object, could you/would you dress your kid/s in 100% Gymbo?

For the girls, maybe. That's what 99% of their stuff is. Although I definitely have strong likes and dislikes as far as their lines. Like I haven't liked any of the new fall stuff, so I've stocked up on last years lines.
For the boys, NO way never. They think it's "dorky." To quote my 8 year old. So they dress in mainly Old Navy, Gap and Austin has some skater clothes as we call them.

mrs.knip

tony has about 60% gymbo for fall/winter and 40% gap.

sandy- naartjie is not expensive at all if you buy it NEW :lol: on sale. stay with me sista, i'll hook ya up :lol:

Nicole

September 7th, 2005, 05:23 PM

QOTD- No way, I'd be buying more Janie and Jack, Baby Lulu and Hanna Andersson as well as getting some Baby Nay, Baby Talavera, Mini Boden, Growing Up Garnet Hill, April Cornell and Baby Gassy Gooma.

I have to second what Kim said Sandy, I think Naartjie tends to go for more on eBay than it is new in the stores. The best thing about Naartjie is that they have the 2 for $20 basics which are so cute!!

AmyP

September 7th, 2005, 09:10 PM

QOTD - Well, Sarah has mostly gymbo for the fall/winter. But, like Bretta, I didn't pay full price for anything and the vast majority of it is from ebay, a lot of it is used. I do get Carter's stuff for her, and Old Navy as well.

AahRee

September 7th, 2005, 09:55 PM

I wouldn't dress Katie in all Gymbo, but if you threw in J&J, I might. :lol: It's so easy for DH to dress her when everything coordinates so well, so it would make my life easier, for sure. :lol: I'd have to get most of it on ebay, though - I'd buy all of WW, and all of IS, and all of a few other lines, too, as well as pieces of the rest of it....

Dawn, I bought my CG stuff during Gymbuck redemption, so if I returned it, I'd lose 50% of the value. :( I suppose I could return it without the receipt and just lose 20%, which is better... and I might do that, actually. I'm just not feeling CG at all right now. :( I might actually go return my RG stuff I just bought and the CG stuff, too, and save my MC for FOG. (I'd rebuy the RG stuff then, I think...).

Kath

September 7th, 2005, 09:59 PM

QOTD ~ No, but it'd be so nice to just have the $$ to buy whole outfits and accessories at full price when they first come out without feeling any guilt! :lol: Especially since everything gets marked down so much eventually.... Katie has tons of Gymbo right now, but I still love shopping other brands. And for Chase....I love Gap & Old Navy for him, with a few Gymbo pieces here and there.

Sandy

September 7th, 2005, 10:46 PM

Nichole I remember your post (I think it was yours?) about how Naartjie has some of the best sales you have ever seen. That is why I haven't gotten much on ebay b/c I am just scratching my head at the prices!

pretty sure the baby sale is over before FOG starts. they are not 'hardmarked' so yes the price will probably go up after the sale. i've seen it before.

big baby sale going on! mbf is marked way down...some of it at 50%! :owow:

I know, I saw! :jawdrop:

I'm actually thinking of buying the pieces now that are marked down lower than the 30% off I'd get during FOG. If prices then on these pieces are lower, then I'd return and rebuy. (But I doubt it...because 20% off + 30% off does not equal 50% off!)

ShannonR

I know I've been in mostly lurk mode (because I am not in shopping mode), but I will answer.

Absolutley not. Actually, if money were no object, I'd buy much more expensive stuff. Gymboree is affordable stuff for us. Plus I havent been liking the new lines at all.

QOTW: No, I wouldn't dress my kids in 100% Gymbo. I like it, but not that much. Like others have said, if I had all the money in the world, then I would most likely move on from Gymbo and purchase more expensive things. Gymbo does have some really cute stuff though, but I don't buy just to have Gymbo, I buy because I like the stuff. AND, because I get sucked in to this thread.

NONE! I can proudly say that I am not THAT obsessed with it. I don't EVER buy anything at full price. Maybe a pair of socks couple years ago... but nothing else.

Honestly, I don't think I've ever bought anything for the regular price. The only stuff I've grabbed that hasn't been on sale was with my employee discount. And I have never paid more than retail for anything. I set limits to my ebay auctions and I stick with them. It helps that DH is anal retentive when it comes to Gymbo anyway. :lol:

I've got a quick question. Can I use gymbucks to pay for gymboree classes? With 3 of my 4 monkeys in school and Isabella finally at an age where I think she'd enjoy it, I'd love to sign her up for a class. I have a TON of gymbucks to use and don't need a whole lot more clothes.

Dori

September 8th, 2005, 03:05 PM

No Jen, as far as I know you cannot use gymbucks for classes. You could sell your gymbucks on ebay though.

QOTD: I have been know to purchase full price. Actually, I just did yesterday. I bought the 4 in 1 coat, snow bibs, scarf and hat all at full price. I waited last year for it to go on sale and had the scour gymbo's until I found it. 95% of the time, I wait for it to go on sale but sometimes I just can't help myself! :nod:

I bought my TP stuff full price, but I had a MC, and that was because I'd returned some things from GB time, so I technically got a discount, because the stuff I had returned was discounted by the GBs, if that makes sense? And I will occasionally buy an accessory for full price if I know it's going to be gone. I don't usually buy anything if there isn't at least a GB earning or redemption period going on.

I went to another Gymbo store today to return this:

http://gymbohaven.com/aug05l25.jpg http://gymbohaven.com/aug05l47.jpg
http://gymbohaven.com/romant4.jpg and a pair of socks that I inadvertentley got doubles of. Total returns were: $80

And just like I mentioned I was going to get, I got this:

http://gymbohaven.com/teache101zz.jpg for both Alexia and Angelina
I'll just have them wear it with blue jeans or a skirt....didn't feel like spending even more money on the pink mathing pants. :lol:

For Alexia:
http://gymbohaven.com/teache101vv.jpg http://gymbohaven.com/teache101ll.jpg
http://gymbohaven.com/teache101nn.jpg

So I got 2 gymbucks today. To be used anywhere from Oct. 6-16th. The ladies were having probs w/ the gymbucks printing out cuz of my returns (gymbucks are now electronic....) so they had to do the return seperate from the purchases. Physically you only get one gymbuck now, so if you get 5 in one purchase you won't have 5 seperate ones. :)
I really wanted this shirt http://gymbohaven.com/teache101n.jpg to go with her yoga set instead, but they were totally out. I'll add this to the ISO Gymbo thread.

I also got a couple more jammies for Angelina in Cuddly Koala...you know, since she's our koala bear. ;)

I was going to buy the sweater dress for my niece, and it was still something like $28! :complain: I also planned to get the soft layette jacket, but the biggest size they had was 6-12, and we need 12-18. Sooo.... if anyone is going and sees a 12-18, I'd REALLY appreciate it if you could grab it for me! :biggrin:

Dawn - I'm glad you're getting it, however you get it! :biggrin:

September 8th, 2005, 08:07 PM

Oh! I almost forgot... I *did* get one great deal today. I had to take some stuff in to the CS, and I found a cute Snow Angels dress for $6.99 in Katie's size! I had some store credit, so I wound up paying just over $1 for it. :lol: Can't beat that with a stick! :lol:

September 8th, 2005, 10:11 PM

I have gotten a few things on regular price- but I avoid it as much as I can. I remember I got a SF top for $24.00 but it was the only one they had and I just couldn't wait for the sale.

As far as ebay, I think I paid $15 for a pair of CAAB tights.

Dawn

September 9th, 2005, 02:52 PM

I also have gotten a few things at regular price. The must have's I don't like to wait in case they are totally out of her size (CG duster sweater comes to mind first). But for the most part I mostly buy when it's discounted at some point or another.

Mandi

September 9th, 2005, 03:29 PM

Wow I haven't been here in a long time. :lol: I haven't bought anything recently but I'm thinking Bray might need a few more fall pieces. Most everything I have is 6-9... no way he's going to make it all fall/winter long in that size. :nono:

I discovered that I really love their one piece rompers. And if you catch them on a decent sale you can get them for almost the same as a Carter's one.

Has anyone seen any sneak peaks of the Firehouse line that's due out next month? I have a good feeling I'll definitely be getting quite a bit of that. ;)

So question.. I have a Vintage Airshow set in 3-6m... socks, shortalls, onesie & hat. Do you all think it's even worth trying to sell now since it's more of a spring/summer outfit? Or should I hold onto it early spring?

I think I am going to go get this this weekend, I just love it!!!!! Does it run big or small in your opinion????
I bought it big (18-24) so Isabella could wear it longer and with sweaters or more layers underneath it.
She just LOVED the hat. It's so soft. She didn't want to take it off. That seemed to run big, so I got a 12-18. And her baby fat head still had lots of room in it. So I'd guess they ran big.

This is what makes me love gymbo for Caid so much. I LOVE their rompers, and I love to dress Caid in rompers since they are so easy and comfy looking. At RHDS last winter I got 6 of them for like 3.99 and 6.99 a piece in 18-24.

What would you all consider a good offer for the HnS windbreaker jacket and wind pants (that were only available in Canada and the UK) in EUC? I am bidding on them right now, and my top bid is $10.99 per piece, and I haven't met the reserve on either auction. This is the second time the seller has listed them. I asked what her reserve was, but I was thinking of making her an offer for both. I'm just not sure what to offer. Maybe $30 for both? Or more? Less? I know they're HTF, but I checked completed listings on ebay, and a NWT one was up for $18.99 as the opening bid (no reserve) and didn't sell, and this one is not new, it's EUC. :dunno:

to go with this top that she already has:
http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140003800?$126x160$ (she has the teal colored socks too).

We'll see. My mom and I might hit the mall today. Maybe I can even convince her to buy them for her? :dunno: They're for a better price than they would be with my employee discount.

AmyP

September 10th, 2005, 08:42 AM

I am bummed. I just looked at the Gymboree website and they don't show anything short sleeve in MBF. I can't send her to school in long sleeves. It will be 80 degrees. Do you think they might have some in the store that aren't online?

Our store doesn't have anything short sleeved in MBF. I doubt there would be anything in the store that isn't online (at least for newer lines like MBF).

My mom and I went to Gymbo today, and here's the damage:

(her Christmas present from my mom)

My mom got her first Gymbuck! Now I just have to make sure she remembers to redeem it.

and I got
http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140003768?$126x160$
to go with
http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140003800?$126x160$
that I already have for her. Although, I'm going to exchange the top since it's a 6-12. It makes more sense for her to have it in 12-18, so I'm going to exchange the top and the socks for the next size up.

For some weird reason, my manager didn't know that the stuff from MBF was marked down. Good thing she has an addict like me around to let her know! :lol:

Oh, and I saw this
http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140003908?$126x160$
in person and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! Although, strangely enough, we didn't get any of the snowpants in our store. My manager said she didn't see them at the Tier 1 either, but she wasn't looking. Maybe they're online only. Seems kind of stupid since the coat is available at our lowly Tier 4 store. Either way, I'm going to bring FIL to Gymbo with me at the first opportunity to grab this up for Sarah! I LOVE IT!!!!!

Kath

September 10th, 2005, 09:35 PM

I saw the 4-in-1 coat today too Amy, its great!!! I didn't think much of it from the picture online, but I really liked it in person. :) I decided that I probably don't NEED it for Katie at her age....but next year she'll need one AND the snowpants! ;)

Well, I ended up hitting the Baby Sale today and got this, plus another GymBuck:

Not sure I love the romper or not. I LOVED the sweaters with this line, but realistically I know I probably won't dress Katie in sweaters all that much. Oh, and I didn't think I liked RM all that much but some of the pieces are *really* cute in person!!

September 10th, 2005, 10:33 PM

Bummer! I am learning about the sizing of things. Anyone know when 2T was implimented? I am trying to learn what lines would have the bigger fitting 18-24 month stuff. I received this sweet cupcake outfit that I got on ebay and it is precious and I love it. Great shape too! But it is too freakin small! Particularly the leggings. She barely fits it now, so no way will she fit it for the whole winter. I went and found some SFF leggings in 2T to try for compairison purposes, and she definately needs 2T in leggings. Other pants - jeans, cotton flare bottoms, are ok in 18-24.

Anyway, I think I will have to list it on here, then re-ebay it if no luck.
http://gymbohaven.com/SweetC124.jpg
http://gymbohaven.com/SweetC51.jpg
I also received this set. Although 18-24 the tights fit a little better than the SC, they still need to be a 2t. The dress could stand to be a 2T, but I am hoping to get away w/ it for at least a little bit. Particularly if I put it w/ tights. Incidentially, this looks MUCH cuter on than on the hanger.

Question about "typical gymboree fade." This terminology is used a lot when dealing w/ navy items. Do you guys find that the typical fade is quite significant? When looking at this dress, you can certainly tell that it is faded some, even if no one represented it to you that way.

Sandy

September 10th, 2005, 10:38 PM

BTW, Anne, did you ever have any luck w/ that ebay seller who sent you the stained garments? I am feeling horrible, but I had to leave neg. feedback w/ the seller of the TTT dress b/c she never responded at all to the three emails I sent her about the stain on it. I even told her that if she didn't respond to the last email, I was left w/ no choice but to leave negative feedback. Still nothing. She was in CA so she wasn't affected by the hurricane. I kinda feel bad, but not that much b/c I am still ticked about the condition the dress arrived in.

Hey! I have this in a 2T and I think Abby needs an 18m size. Let me try in on her tommorrow again and if I still think it's too big I'll let you know and maybe we can trade! Is your used, mine is, Ebay win but of course!

Thank the Gymbogods I'm back online! I've managed to stay awake tonight long enough to catch up on this thread! :sleeping:

Believe it or not, I managed to pinch in a Gymbo visit this week even though Branson doesn't have one. Springfield, MO does! I totally stumbled upon that baby sale... and that manager smelled the scent of Crazy Bitch the second I walked in and was all over me like white on rice.

I started off with one sleeper but of course ended up with another Gymbuck. :sunny: Got to snoop around in the new lines a bit, too. I bought:

http://www.gymbohaven.com/rockyo22.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/rockyb34.jpg
But I was a good girly and didn't buy those to die for matching fuzzy bunny ears, although Ahna wore them while I was in the store.

http://www.gymbohaven.com/mybest55.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/mybest107.jpg

http://www.gymbohaven.com/mybest89.jpg
They didn't have the shirt in the right size, so I bought it too big and figure I can exchange it elsewhere.

OK, this is the time when you all start telliing me the reasons why I DO NOT need to buy the GWL sooo soft, soooo fuzzy, sooooo sweet coat that I've been dying to get, even though you'e already got it. The store I was in was sold out except for one, which was too big. Note - Ahna is FOUR months old and already has these:

http://www.gymbohaven.com/newaug71.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/04dais15.jpg

Ah, now here is an idea.... it runs up to 24 months right? I could buy it... but for next winter. Ah, I am brilliant. :devildanc:devildanc:devildanc Of course, I think it's like practically sold out, so how brilliant am I? I'll end up buying it on ebay for more than I could have just gotten it in the store.

But we've already had THAT conversation! :nod:

SIL told DH yesterday that MIL wants to buy Sarah her first snowsuit. You know I'll have to get her to buy the one that matches the winter coat she's getting from FIL! :devildanc

The only thing I need to figure out is if there are any stores near me that have it in stock. Or, how to use my employee discount online (or over the phone). She could order it online and use the GYMFRIEND code, but we'll have to see if her incredibly non-technical brain can handle that without her calling me 1000 times and if she can manage to order it next weekend. It's only $5 more with the COF card than it is with my employee discount.

I just hope she doesn't conveniently become "strapped for cash" when she sees the price.

I totally stumbled upon that baby sale... and that manager smelled the scent of Crazy Bitch the second I walked in and was all over me like white on rice.

:rotflmao: she smelled the scent of a true shopper on you :lol2:

i am hearing that coat runs small....i too have had to sit on my friggen hands to not RUN out and buy that coat. I DO NOT NEED IT! i have the folk song 4 in 1 and i swore i would only buy that coat and no other. (we can't count the wicked cheap hanna fleece can we? :awink: of course not)

Jenn

September 11th, 2005, 09:01 PM

I got some Rocky Mountain today for the girls, well, my sister got it for them. :awink: I absolutely love this line and the colors look great on Peyton. Here's what I ended up with...

For Peyton:
Found the TPet boots in an 8 :banana: so friggen cute!!

I forgot that I wanted the Cowgirl shirt so I may get that this week with COF b/c I also want to get the velour yoga suit, some panties and some socks.

For Lindsey:

And the bad thing is taht I still want more. :blush:

Jenn

September 11th, 2005, 09:03 PM

Oh, and I love the 4 in 1 coat. It's really cute. I had the HnS coat last year and we loved it so I knew we had to have that again this year. I thought about getting one for Lindsey but I still have other coats from Peyton that she can use so I couldn't justify the expense and I'd rather get more oufits for her anyway.

I am so happy I don't have to buy winter coats!! They are very cute, but they are $$$$$!!!

Totally forgot to mention this...my mom and I went to a consignment store on Saturday and I found this

Jen, I'm so jealous of your TP boots! I want them for Katie, but can't find them anywhere, and I refuse to pay $50 for them on ebay. :rolleyes:

I hit the baby sale today, too, and picked up some stuff for my niece and nephew for their birthday (October) and Christmas. For their birthday, I got them:
Mia
http://www.gymbohaven.com/mybest77.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/mybest83.jpg
but I'm thinking of returning the hoodie and getting this to go with the dress, instead:
http://www.gymbohaven.com/mybest80.jpg
I just don't know how practical that would be for a 1-year-old. What do you all think? I kind of think she'd get more use out of the hoodie... :( But I'm still debating it...

Marcus
http://www.gymbohaven.com/gonefi40.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/gonefi51.jpg

And for Christmas, I got them these sweaters. I know they're both technically *boy* sweaters, but I think they'd look just as cute on a girl...

I couldn't believe that the store had them. I've heard that everyone is sold out but for some reason they got replens on the boots. They had 2 size 8's, a size 9 and then a smaller size that I didn't look at. They are so cute. I'm so excited that I got them, too.

WooHoo!! There is no way I would have ever bought that much myself so it was so awesome. We got $150 in gymbucks so my mom and I will buy some Rocky Mountain during gymbuck time.

Bridget

Brandi - score!!! :woo:

AahRee

September 12th, 2005, 12:44 AM

Jen - that's awesome! I asked about Katie's size when I was in the store today, but they are thinking they aren't going to be getting any replens, so it's not going to happen. I'm so bummed! The RM ones are cute (and available in Katie's size) but not nearly as practical and versitile as the TP ones!

Brandi - AWESOME score!!! :ura1:

AmyP

September 12th, 2005, 10:33 AM

Thanks Colleen. I'm going to talk to my manager when I hit the mall today and ask her if she'd mind doing a return and re-buy. I may call around to the other area stores and see if they got the snowpants. If not, then I may just give MIL the code and have her order the snowpants herself. It's only $5 more with COF, and I think my time and effort is worth more than that.

Of course, MIL is always conveniently poor, so she probably won't want to buy her those. :rolleyes:

Jeni

September 12th, 2005, 10:45 AM

Brandi~that's GREAT! Will and Mr. are going to have some of the same clothes:)

September 13th, 2005, 11:28 AM

I went into a gymbo here and they didn't have hardly anything on the sale racks. :( I was really looking for the KISA romper. Oh well.

I did get a sneak peak at the new Firehouse line though. Very cute! :aok: It's really similar to Little Fire Truck. Had I know they were coming out with something so similar I wouldn't have searched and searched and paid way too much for a used LFT romper about 2 months ago. :rolleyes:

Jeni

September 13th, 2005, 11:47 AM

Great Mandi, I did that with the fire truck romper too :rolleyes:

September 13th, 2005, 04:04 PM

Ugh! I swear, I'm really getting disenchanted with ebay these days. I won a hoodie, described as being velour, and from the Puppy Love line, with a pinpoint spot on it at the bottom. Well, I got it, and it's scratchy cotton, not velour, and the spot is about the size of an eraser head and in a very prominent location, and there are two other pen marks on it as well. :complain:

And then, I opened up what were supposed to be NWT leggings from Apres Ski. NWT, my :booty: They have a stain on them! :complain: In two different places! How can you sell something as NWT when it has a STAIN on it, and not disclose that? :disbelief I'm SO irritated! I thought buying NWT would be safe, at least, but apparantly not.

Jenn

September 13th, 2005, 04:20 PM

AahRee

September 13th, 2005, 04:28 PM

I just emailed them, so they haven't responded yet. I can't believe they didn't KNOW, though. :disbelief I mean, how hard is it to tell whether or not something is velour???? And it's not like the stain on the NWT item was tiny. We'll see what happens. Good thing I won both auctions fairly cheaply, so I'm not out a lot of $$$, just time and energy.

Stuff like this totally lowers bids for the good, honest sellers, and that totally sucks. :(

AmyP

September 13th, 2005, 04:54 PM

I have a pr. of boys overalls in 12-18mths if anyone is interested, I can't find the line it's 2003 and they are light blue/green plaid. PM if interested, I will get a pic.

AahRee

September 13th, 2005, 05:34 PM

Oh, I'm going to HURT this woman! She's insisting that the hoodie *is* velour. Um, it's not. I'm looking at it right now, and I know what velour is!!! :complain: This is 100% cotton, scratchy junk! Velour is usually a poly/cotton blend and is soft, with a raised knap. Don't freaking mess with me, woman! :angrywife

Okay, I had to get that out! :lol: I'm off to pick up Katie from preschool, but I'll return with this woman's ebay ID so you all know NOT to buy from her!

Sandy

September 14th, 2005, 09:42 AM

Maybe we should keep a list somewhere of the bad ebay sellers. I would caution anyone against using nemosnax. She sent me a dress that was "like new" but it had a huge OJ stain on the front of it. I emailed her three times to try and correct it, w/ the last one saying if I didn't hear something from her by Sept 6th, I would leave negative feedback. Didn't hear anything. Still waited a couple more days, then left neg. feedback. She will leave the same feedback on yours as you did on hers, regardless of what you do. So I have a neg. feedback now. I did a reply on it though, so hopefully people just ignore it.

AahRee

September 14th, 2005, 10:32 AM

Sandy, I think that's a great idea. :nod: I got the email, too, but it's still so nice to have the card. Thanks again, Amy!

I'm saving my gymbucks to buy Lily the winter coat, bibs, hat etc.

Me too. I've been adding things to my shopping cart (about $400 worth!) but want to narrow it down to about $100. I already have two GB, and will have two more if I sign the kids up for a Play class which I'll probably do next week. WTH am I going to do with SIX GBs if I don't like the holiday line?!

AmyP

September 14th, 2005, 02:32 PM

Well, I can't use COF except maybe online. :) I'm buying the 4-in-1 coat from RM for Sarah tonight, though. FIL said to go ahead and buy it and he'll send me a check. Still no word from MIL about the snowsuit. She's probably ignoring me. :rolleyes:

Dawn

September 14th, 2005, 02:34 PM

WTH am I going to do with SIX GBs if I don't like the holiday line?!

Dawn

September 14th, 2005, 02:35 PM

Oh yea, I meant to ask.....how much is this 4 in 1 coat? I'm too lazy to look on the site right now. Alexia's gonna need a new coat or two for the winter and I'm starting to look around now. I have to see if her J-Lo one still fits her from last year...but I'm thinking it won't.

Hmn, thanks Alysia. I have to check it out again....

Alysia

September 14th, 2005, 02:45 PM

i still need to remember to try G's coat on her from last year. I am hoping it will still fit because she only wore it once last year. :lol: But, I only paid $15 for it new on Ebay so I guess if it doesn't, it wasnt a big loss! I should probably start looking on Ebay for another one just in case....

Jeni

GQOTD: So, what is everyone planning to get this weeked for COF?

Well my online cart is loaded! Shocked, huh? I will post later! All RM except for one MBF outfit. I HOPE I love the new ballerina line because I am going to have a ridiculous amount of gymbucks!

I want some mbf...we haven't gotten any yet, not sure what we will get though, Janelle needs more casual clothes but none of the pants fit and the size 3 dresses look like night gowns or like she is playing dress up or something since they are so big...I want play dresses like hannah anderson...but with no buttons, no collars, no stripes, etc etc etc...I'm picky. So anyway I'm thinking the argyle sweater, matching hat, knee socks, and skirt...though not sure what size, I have to return her 18-24 month TP skirt and find one that fits her better...not sure if that will be 12-18 or size 3?!?!? I also want the orange capelet and matching hat for pumpkin patch pictures for her, and the squirrel sweater dress just cause it is beautiful. And I want the racoon sweater for Caid for pumpkin patch pictures.

Plus next weekend my nephew is turning one...I want to get him a pair of robeez and a cute outfit...

AahRee

Cute picks, Lette! I might go for that same velour hoodie outfit from MBF. I love that!

I'm trying to decide what to do about my niece's gift. I started thinking that maybe the sweater dress isn't that practical for a baby who can't walk yet, and at best, will be a new walker when she gets it. :( So, I'm thinking of swapping it for the ice blue velour pants and the white shirt with the bows and the doggie beauty shop on it. What do you all think? Would that be more practical for a 1-year-old?

Bridget

September 14th, 2005, 04:11 PM

Anne, I've bought a few dresses for Ahna (esp. the sweater dresses) but I definitely think that the pants/shirts are more practical.

PLUS, I just bought the pants/shirt set you mentioned for Ahna, so you know I already like it!

I haven't picked out my stuff for COF yet... I've got a couple things to return also, so that will add to my shopping dollars. Hooray!

I'm going to start a "Bad Sellers" thread, even though I don't have one to add YET (but don't jinx me).

I'm the Bad Buyer (or stupid buyer). I got a great deal on this after watching about 50 auctions and realized I bought the wrong stupid size! I bought 3-6 and I need 6-12. MO-RON.

For a one year old?

Lots of leggings and swing tops would be my picks!

QOTD:

I have no idea what to get. I haven't really even looked at the stuff so I 'm completely lost.

I think I want to get the 4 in 1 coat though.

I really like this:
http://www.gymbohaven.com/fall205311.jpg

But we still have this in a size 3 and it will still fit this season.

http://www.gymbohaven.com/fnewau12.jpg

Do you think they are too similar? One is velour and the other one is a sweater. Different ideas?

I'm just lost! I don't even know what to look for! Lauryn is ONLY wearing dresses right now.

September 14th, 2005, 04:15 PM

Oh, that's totally something I would do - and have done, actually. :lol:

I just won this auction, and I'm totally excited about it, but hoping like crazy that the pants run a tad big... She's more of a 5 on top and 6 on bottom, so hopefully this won't be a huge mistake! :lol:

Okay, I'm going to return the dress and get the pants and top. My sister will probably never even put her in the sweater dress if I give it to her. Why, oh why, did they make that thing in BG and not KG????? :disbelief Get it together, Gymbo!

Oh, did I tell you all that I emailed Gymbo and told them to put in an outlet at the new Premium Outlets near me? :lol: I also emailed the Premium Outlets management and told them the same thing. :lol: Apparantly, it's one of the sites they're strongly considering already (according to a SA at my Gymbo store), so hopefully...

Lyndee

September 14th, 2005, 04:19 PM

I want play dresses like hannah anderson...but with no buttons, no collars, no stripes, etc etc etc...I'm picky.

Did you check Land's End? I was considering getting some playdresses there.

I'm starting to get annoyed about the sweater dresses not coming in KG too. Lauryn can still squeeze herself into a 3T but for not much longer.

Ok, I'm an idiot and you have to spell it out for me:

1. When does FOG come into effect? I don't have my card yet and I don't remember.

2. If you get stuff during FOG, does it count for gymbucks?

3. When does gymbucks apply. Is this what they call redemption?

Karri

September 14th, 2005, 04:45 PM

That is bohemian. I think the price is a bit high? This stuff usually sells between $2-$4 on ebay.
Anyone know what line this is? I have it in a 3, if anyone is interested. $6+ship it does have like some rust spots on the inside that you won't be able to see when worn.

Okay, FOG is this Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It DOES count for earning Gymbucks. You can use the Gymbucks during *redemption*, which starts October 2, I believe. HTH!

In regards to the QOTD:

Nothing!!!! I am not going anywhere near gymbo this weekend. I already have 2 gymbucks and I don't need any more. Emma has enough clothes for now.

I am interested in what the Ballerina line will look like as well since there isn't much of RM that I really want to buy.

Bridget

September 14th, 2005, 11:18 PM

GQOTD: So, what is everyone planning to get this weeked for COF

I want to get these for Caleb, for sure. http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140004230?$240x305$
Beyond that, I haven't decided!

:nod: Um, can you picture the shopping adventures we'd have, Alysia? We'd totally egg each other on. :lol: It would be horrifically FUN! :lol:

Bridget, I love the cherries, too. Cherries are mostly to blame for my Gymbo habit, actually, since the first Gymbo I bought for her was from the Cherries line. :lol:

An update - the seller who sold the NWT leggings to me that were stained asked me to take a picture of the stain. I did, and she is going to refund my $$$, and I'm going to ship them back to her so she can try to get a refund from Gymbo. So, thank goodness that worked out okay!

I'm heading to Gymbo tomorrow in hopes of putting some stuff on hold. (I'm keeping my fingers crossed that there's automatic free shipping so I can just order online.) I'm going to get a few MBF pieces for Avery, and some basic socks for both girls. So far, I didn't love what I saw of RM, so I'm hoping to get a better look at it tomorrow and decide then.

I'm still waiting for my Gymbo order from last Friday. It shipped on Monday and usually it's here within 2 days.

September 15th, 2005, 02:25 AM

I went to GYmboree in Provo, UT and I think it was a tier one, as they had It's a Girl Thing, but not much of it! I got Madelynn 1 outfit from RM and Ava one from RM and one from the blue one. I forget the name, it's been a long day. :lol:

Anyway, I love RM! The sweaters are really nice.

Hilary

September 15th, 2005, 02:39 AM

:doh: My best friend. This is what I got Ava.

http://www.gymbohaven.com/mybest84.jpg I got this in a 3T, so it would fit more like a poncho.

I can't believe I paid full price for this RM stuff, but I didn't really like anything else they had!
This is really stinking adorable, but it's hand wash only!

Colleen, if we ALL got together to shop....that would be VERY, VERY dangerous (and lots of fun too, ;) )!!!! :lol:

Hey girls..

Is anyone interested in any of this?
Tiger Love
City Sidewalk
Hide N Seek

It's all size 3 except for the navy striped leggings. For some reason they're a 2T. :scratch: Everything is in great condition except the pink polka dot turtleneck has a few orange spots and the green top has one spot in front. They'd be play condition.

I can post a for sale post later if anyone is interested. Thanks.

2. If you get stuff during FOG, does it count for gymbucks?

3. When does gymbucks apply. Is this what they call redemption?

1. It's in effect 9/16-9/18. I sent your card out the same day as everyone else's. It should have already arrived by now. :scratch: If you PM me your e-mail address, I'll forward you the e-mail and you can print it out. Maybe it got lost in the mail?

2. Yup, as long as you don't pay with a merchandise credit (a giftcard is fine).

3. Redemption (when they apply) is October 6-16. :)

AmyP

September 15th, 2005, 09:48 AM

Anne - My store only had the TP boots in an 8 and a 10. Sorry. :(

I had a great night at Gymbo last night. I worked with the store manager because the girl who normally works was working at the new outlet opening today in Hagerstown! :banana: MIL lives really close to the outlets over there. I guess I'll have to start talking to her again. :lol:

Anyway, I got the 4-in-1 coat for Sarah and I bought the matching hat as well. It's ADORABLE on her. The coat is big on her, but that's a good thing. It means she isn't likely to grow out of it too soon. I'll have to take a picture of her in it because it's so cute it should be illegal.

FIL is taking us shopping next Friday. You know where we're going!

I have a better ebay story. I got this snow angels win yesterday:
http://i8.ebayimg.com/03/i/04/d7/ef/b8_1_b.JPG
It is in great shape overall....except there is an apple juice colored stain in several spots on the front. Hard to see b/c of the busy pattern, but still something I noticed. I can see if a seller is going through a bunch of clothes to list how it could be missed. So, I emailed the seller to mention it and ask if she had pretreated it, etc., in the hopes of getting it out. She was awesome, responded right away, apologized, and offered to refund and pay for shipping or said she would give a credit to my paypal account if I wanted to keep. I do want to keep it b/c I think it is totally adorable and, like I said, it isn't that noticable. She refunded me this morning.

Now, is that hard? Why couldn't the other seller, nemosnax done that? Anyway, there are good sellers out there. This sellers name was mikeysister.

AmyP

September 15th, 2005, 10:13 AM

There's an outlet in Hagerstown? I didn't know that - we're in Gettysburg and DH works in Frederick. Definitely going to be checking it out soon - the outlet lines are pretty cute.

Yup. It opens today, according to my manager, tomorrow according to the Prime Outlets website. I didn't know until last night.

I put Rayna in the strawberry patch outfit shown here on the left and I swear, it is the cutest thing I have ever seen. Seeing Stefanie's Emma in the dress with the same pattern as these pants is what got me interested in Gymbo b/c I thought it was so cute! This outfit is 3 and fits her great now!!! I would take a picture except that I have no camera right now. Once I get my new one (to ship on Monday) I will redress her and take a few snaps. SO CUTE.

I have to quit my job (I'm allergic to it :rolleyes: ), so my purchases at COF are going to be limited to whatever is on my MC right now, I think. So, I'm trying to limit myself to one outfit from MBF and one from RM, and if I still have enough left over, then the ladybug halloween costume, as well. But I can't manage to narrow down my choices in either MBF or RM right now. :lol: I want the whole freaking line of both. Is that really so much to ask? :lol2:

Anyone have advice?!?!?

By the sale, are you referring to Circle of friends? It's 30% off the current selling price, either full price or sale priced. Anything that's "hardmarked" (with the price ticket) will stay marked down. The Baby sale ends today. That was a "soft markdown" meaning it was a temporary price markdown, and the prices will go back up tomorrow.

Thanks, Amy!!

AahRee

September 15th, 2005, 06:38 PM

Alysia, I've seen it in person, and honestly, I think you'd do better with the 4 in 1. The material will look like hell after the first rain. So unless you know of someway of guaranteeing a rain-free winter around here, I'd get something else. The 4 in 1 has the fleece inside, but it zips out, so you could use the jacket on its own and it wouldn't be too warm. And then, you could get the velour pants and wear those with the fleece and a turtleneck, for a second, lighter-weight coat option. Just my $0.02!

Dori, here's a link to it:

And the picture:

I have the costume, wings and baby girl head band on hold (they were out of the KG one :mope:) as well as a BUNCH of other stuff, all from RM. For some reason, I'm just not excited about MBF anymore. :dunno: I waited too long, I guess, and now it's old news. :lol: This is what I'm holding from RM:

I also have 3 tops on hold from AW, and I saw a TON of PP stuff, but I didn't have the printout with me of what everyone was looking for, so I didn't get any. They even had a coat from AS, for something like $9.99. It was a 3, or I would have bought it! They had TONS of older lines out, for some reason!

It might be too cool for here, too, unfortunately. I think my other idea is the flower costume, if they still have it in her size. It's so cute, though.... But I guess it wouldn't be quite as cute under a coat... :lol:

Thanks. It'll be okay, though. I might actually already have another job in the works, because one of my managers used to work at the Brooks Bros. outlet (right down the hallway) and said she's sure she could get me a job there if I want/need her to. Also, I have applications in at Boeing for a full-time job... so my Gymbo shopping habit has the potential for getting a LOT worse soon! :lol:

I guess it's good to know that I'm allergic to cedar this way, though, rather than spending $1K on a dresser and finding out after I got it home, right?

Dori

Bridget, I'll post my long answer to that in my journal. I typed it here and then realized how long it was.... :lol:
My journal (http://www.onceuponalife.com/forums/showthread.php?p=609490#post609490)

Okay, now that the baby sale is over, I don't feel bad asking this question about it. Did the thought occur to anyone else that you could easily buy an item from MBF during the baby sale in a baby size, and then exchange it later for the same item in kid girl sizes? I didn't do it or anything, but the thought occurred to me that that would be incredibly easy to do. :dunno: Was there some sort of safeguard in place to prevent that from happening?

They would have a different SKU, so if you exchanged it, you'd have to pay the difference. So, yeah there's a safeguard. :biggrin:

Thanks Amy! I have another policy question for you. I have an outfit from CG that we're just not going to wear. I want to return it without my receipt (which is long gone now), and I know that CG is 20% off, so I'll lose that much of the value of it. But will I also lose an additional 30% if I return it now, because of COF? If so, I can wait! :lol:

Bridget

September 16th, 2005, 01:52 PM

I'm going to use my COF thing tonight after work (thanks again Amy). Tell me to "stay strong" and not buy a bunch of crap I don't need. I didn't put anything on hold, so that is a GOOD thing.

Wait, perhaps this is the wrong thread for that. :silly:

My total after COF and 5% Visa was $152.67 ! :woo: How lucky is that!

What did you get Lette?

I went today and even w/ the FOG card, I could not bring myself to buy anything that wasn't on the sale racks! I did find the following items in Romantic Garden and picked them up for $49 so I got another gymbuck! :woo: I will have two for redemption that I may use for MBF. Thanks again Amy! I feel like I got a great deal on all of this w/ the FOG discount on top of the reduced prices!

Speaking of gymbucks, I am thinking about getting some MBF. If she is a willing model, I would love to see that shirt/pants on......................

I forgot to post this earlier, I got this dress from Jenn for a great price and OMG, it is so cute! I didn't realize it had sparkly things on the bottom! I can't wait for Rayna to wear it.

Anybody know when the holiday line comes out? I am loving the jumper pictured on their site. I will freak over the ballerina line as well. I've been taking ballet almost my entire life, and I can't wait until I can enroll Sarah.

JustJen

September 16th, 2005, 07:46 PM

I can't wait until I can enroll Sarah.
We just signed Lily up for her Princess up and dance ballet class today. She is SO excited. She has been wearing her ballet outfits around ALL day. She's changed them a couple times because she can't decide which she likes best.
How old does she have to be to sign her up where you are?
We have munchkin dance for kids 18 mos to 2 1/2. That's not too far off for Miss Sarah.

Here Anne... this is Emma in the flower costume!!
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v228/Jenny416/100_0309.jpg

I bought up my loaded cart this morning. I can't wait to get home and see it in person. I got all RM and one TP. Lovin it!! That brings me gymbuck count to 175!! That is the most I have ever had.. I better love the new ballerina line!! :nod:

OMG!!! Emma is such a doll! When I went to Gymbo today, they didn't have the flower in sizes above 3T - did it even come bigger than that? I don't know. It looks a lot bigger than that to me, but there's no way Katie would fit in a 3T.

Although, did anyone else notice that RM seems to run a little big? I tried Katie in all size 6 stuff, and it was all HUGE on her. I ended up getting everything - including the coat - in a 5, and she still has plenty of room to grow in that. Maybe it's the cut - there's enough room for her little bum, so everything fits a little better. :dunno: Fortunately, Katie was very patient, and let me try all the clothes on her in both sizes. So long as she didn't have to move away from the Clifford video, she was fine stripping down right there, in the middle of the store. :lol:

I really hope RM doesn't run that big.. of course I have seen nothing in person but I have already bought a couple of pieces. Although even if I had seen it in person I cannot bring myself to buy anymore 18-24 months stuff.. Lauren is 2 1/12.... 2 1/2 people.. no more 18-24 months.

Although it is cute, I have 1000 things for Xmas this year, so I am not tempted.

I am looking at MBF so I can narrow down what I want for redemption. Have a plan of action when I go into the store rather than being overwhelmed. Oh, and BTW, my store is a lowly Tier 3. :wtf: :lol:
I think these are my favorite tops - I LOVE swing tops, I think they looks so cute on.....

http://www.gymbohaven.com/mybest28.jpg

$30
http://www.gymbohaven.com/mybest11.jpg
$26
or this one
http://www.gymbohaven.com/mybest79.jpg
$24
I like these style of pants also. I am thinking that the basic color shirts will end up on the sale rack and I can get them cheaper if I wait a bit?
http://www.gymbohaven.com/mybest112.jpg
$16.50

I am just trying to figure out what looks best w/ what. I wonder how close the blue is to the blue in HNS? Anyone got the two to compair?

AmyP

September 17th, 2005, 12:59 PM

Don't feel bad, I work at a Tier 4. Although, I heard it through the grapevine they may move all the stores in the area (except obviously the Tier 1) up a tier. That would put me about 20 minutes away from a Tier 2 store. :banana:

Remember me? I've been working SO MUCH lately that I haven't had time to get online. Our hospital closed for good yesterday, though, so I am now down to just 2 jobs instead of 3! :thumbsup:

I am so disappointed. I wasn't able to get any holds on Thursday since I worked from 6:30am until after 9pm. Friday, Kira was sick and today there was hardly anything left! :( I had such great plans for COF! Oh, well. More money left for later, I guess. I did get this:
for next summer:

for next fall:

for now!
http://www.gymbohaven.com/romant73.jpg
http://www.gymbohaven.com/romant73z.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/romant73tt.jpg

I have almost everything from RG! I was really hoping to get a bunch of CG during COF, but they had either 3-6 month (way too small) or 18-24 (too big). I guess everyone is in 12-18 just like we are!

Well, I had planned to go to Gymboree today but we are all sick with a really bad cold here, and my DS is in the hospital overnight AGAIN b/c of his asthma. http://baby.ourlittleuniverse.com/images/smilies/frown.gif So.....I'll probably end up ordering my few things online tomorrow before the sale is over even though I was hoping to see a few things IRL to help me decide. I also hate that I'll have to pay shipping. Oh well.....

Kath

September 17th, 2005, 10:09 PM

My Ali will be 3 next month... she wore an 18-24 dress today. I swear she eats. :lol:

Bridget

September 17th, 2005, 10:55 PM

I went to the sale last night after work and it was a madhouse in there. Since it was Parent's Night Out I was sans children, so I got to enjoy myself (especially watching the other parents toting screaming kids :tongue2: ).

I bought the bones pajamas I wanted, plus the following, enough to ear yettanutha Gymbuck. I hope I like the ballerina line and all, because there's not much left (beyond RM) that I like and don't already flipping own. Well, at least of the girl's stuff.

DOes anyone know how that 4-in-1 coat runs. Big? Normally I'd get Alexia a size 4t....1 size bigger in coats since she's a size 3. But I'm not sure..... :scratch:

AmyP

September 18th, 2005, 08:56 AM

It seemed pretty true to size to me. I put Sarah in the 12-18 months (because I want it to fit throughout the winter) and it was big on her, but not huge. She normally wears 6-12 months. Hope this helps.

I made it to the store this morning while waiting for the dr to discharge Chase & DH from the hospital. I was going crazy waiting, so retail therapy was helpful. :lol: It was SO quiet in the store though, there were only like 2 other customers the whole time! I ended up just getting these (and another GB):

http://www.gymbohaven.com/horse.37.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/horse.36.jpg
http://www.gymbohaven.com/horse.26.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/horse.27.jpg

And then these for Chase. I can't believe he is still wearing a 2T!
http://www.gymbohaven.com/varsit43.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/cowboy44.jpg

I got home and noticed that the cowboy shirt has a little spot on the white part of the arm. I'd try to exchange it but it was the only 2T and I really like the shirt. I guess I'll be daring and try to get it out. ??
I also accidently walked out of the store with this hanging off the stroller! :omg:

http://www.gymbohaven.com/varsit41.jpg

They only had a 3T and so I meant to put it back but forgot. :doh: I was honest and took it right back in....but that would have been a fun "bonus". :blush: So...still looking for it in a 2T.

Mandi

I like the stuff you got Kath! I have just a few hours left to decide if I want to buy anything from RM with COF and I'm undecided, the stuff that's in my bag would be just under $120 with the discount so that's not a ton but it's only 2 outfits and I don't really need them but I so love the orange but I want the London Town from J& J...
Arugh! I'm going crazy!!!

Dawn - I haven't been able to see the 4 in 1 coat from this year since I am not home yet, my mom has it, but last years ran true to size. Lauren is a little peanut and it fit her nice.

AahRee

September 18th, 2005, 10:32 PM

Dawn,
I think the whole RM line runs a tad big, actually. Katie was needing 6s in a lot of things last spring and summer, and now, the 5s are fitting again. :dunno: I got her the coat in a 5, and it fits with plenty of room to spare, even over a bulky sweater. However, I held up the 6 and 5 to each other, and there really was NOT much difference at all.

I went back to Gymbo today with a friend, and she got a ton of great stuff! I brought back the two tops I had bought for Katie for RM, because I was hoping they'd have the right sizes, since we were at a different store. No such luck, but I did SAS and got them both, so it will be okay. AND, since I had planned to just do a straight exchange for size, I didn't have my receipt, so they credited me a MC in the full price (eventhough I bought them with the COF discount - I swear, I didn't ask them to do it this way, but they did! :aok: ). So, that, plus what I already had on there, gave me enough on my MC to get an outfit from MBF! :banana:
I got this:

I agree that RM seems to run a tad big in some pieces. We got Peyton the 4 in 1 coat in a size 4 and it fits her with a little room to grow. It will definitely last all winter. It's funny because right now, Lindsey is in 12-18 (she's going to be in 18-24 soon though) but I just got her an outfit from RM in 18-24 and I'm actually thinking I need to exchange for a 2T because the 18-24 just fits her now. Gymbo sizing is so wacky!

Dawn

September 19th, 2005, 07:52 AM

Thanks everyone. Well, I went to Gymbo yesterday, and unfortunately they didn't have that 4-in-1 coat in a size 3 for me to try on Alexia. Heck, they didn't even have it in a 4! Bummer.

I wanted to get the FOG discount, so I got some stuff....along with 2 more GBs!

For Alexia:

To go with the cat sweater:

http://gymbohaven.com/teache129.jpg http://gymbohaven.com/teache120.jpg for when she wears it w/ a denim skirt.

I couldn't NOT get anything for Angelina so she got this:

They didn't have http://gymbohaven.com/teache159.jpg or
http://gymbohaven.com/teache160.jpg in her size. :blue: I may put these in the ISO forum.

I know I said I didn't like this line (MBF), but the colors have really grown on me . I was careful about what I picked out cuz I'm too fond of the dogs. :lol:

Pair of velour leggins

and a pair of pink tights.
I want to check out the other store and see if they have this onsie in the pink color instead.

I think that's it......

Dawn--

I think the RM coat is running true to size. I got Lauryn a size 4- she even tried it on in the store. I was tempted to get a 5 but it would have been way too big. It's the only purchase I have that I'm sure about keeping!

I snuck out of work on Friday to go to Gymbo and I only got 3 items.

So I had to do a last minute run at 5:15 yesterday (Sunday). I must be in some Gymbo rut or something because I'm not really crazy about anything right now. I love the leggings and the tops from both RM and MBF but I'm just afraid that Lauryn will not wear any of them! The BG sweater dresses are too small in a 3T and I'm not so crazy about any of the KG dresses. I'm so bummed! I loved the scottie sweater and the skirt too but I passed up on that as well.

I did get a couple of velour hoodie sets but she refuses to try any of them on so :crossfing hope they fit!

I got Brandon a couple of shirts. I like the boy stuff but not crazy about them either. Plus, I think I'm regretting using Gymbucks to buy Brandon's stuff the last time because they still have all the stuff I bought- now at reduced prices! So next time, I"ll have to concentrate on Girl stuff only since those sell out and the boy stuff lingers forever!

so speaking of selling out....

Bridget

When you shop at Gymbo, do you pay attention to what "flies off the shelf" and what's not selling?

Sort of... I guess I pay attention so that if there's something I really want (like the fluffy GWL coat) I can decide whether to buy it full price or wait. Of course, in that case my gamble did not pay off. The stores are all out and I didn't get it.

Otherwise, even though I'm in there almost every week, by the time I figure out that something is "flying off the shelf" and that I want it, it's already gone. That's the penalty for holding out for sales!!!

I don't really buy to resell, so that's not a factor for me. Should, but don't, at least not yet.

September 19th, 2005, 01:22 PM

Lyndee, is the size 4 coat big on Lauryn and if so by how much? Since our girls are twins ;) I like to get an idea on how big the 4 is on her. Because that answer will determine if I should get a 3 or a 4 for Alexia.

Which brings me to say: I'm so mad that they didn't have any 3's or 4's yesterday. I was REALLY hoping to use the 30% off on that coat. :blue: I looked online & they have none left in BG, but in KG they do have it in 3T. I'm so tempted to just buy it, but I hate not buying it with no discounts, etc.

No, it's not big. Fits just right. I didn't try the size 3 on though. I think Lexie can probably wear the 3T though. Lauryn is now 41 inches and about 37 lbs.

Sorry you didn't get the coat! I did feel a little panicked yesterday because I didn't buy much at all so I ended up buying some "maybe" things- things that I might want later but didn't want to risk paying full price after this sale. I can always return it even if it means losing my Gymbuck.

I had wanted the RM clogs but they were out of Lauryn's size. I contemplated getting a different size and exchanging them if they got a replens. That way I can get the sale price. I didn't get the clogs though- hopefully I don't regret it later!

GQOTD:

I can't say that I pay attention at the store although I do scan GR to see what's popular. If I like something that's popular, then I'd probably work harder at getting the item before it sells out. I do get swayed by GR sometimes because people will say- there's only ONE of this left in my store. :lol: But I guess I have been pretty lucky because the two Tier 1s by me have been very well stocked. And really, I don't hang around the store long enough to see what other people are buying.

JustJen

September 19th, 2005, 01:32 PM

Dawn, If you can't find it in the size you want, let me know. Our local stores have TONS of them.

I was talking to them about the next lines and there are supposed to be more winter coats with them too. THey said the Prima Ballerina line will be lots of fleece and pink and winter stuff. So I'll probably hold off and get Lily's with gymbucks from that line.

I need some advice. I found a bunch of Dandelion Wishes in 18-24 for Lindsey that I want to get so she can wear it through the winter and into next spring. My dilemma is that the girl (the stuff is listed on a gymbo board that I'm on) didn't put any prices with the stuff and when I told her that I was interested she said to make her an offer. It's a lot of stuff that I want, like 4 shirts, 2 skirts, the jogging suit (pants with jacket), and a dress. I don't even know where to begin with an offer. Help!!

ETA: Why can't people just list a price? Why do I have to come up with one?

Sort of.
If it's something I like, but am iffy about I'll usually buy it and take it back if I change my mind. That way I'm not kicking myself for not getting it and really wanting it later.
If it's something that's not selling, I might hold off on buying it knowing they'll have plenty when a sale comes around. I did this with a lot of Bonjour Provence.

You'll only get the discount if you are exchanging the same item for size. Otherwise, you'll lose the COF discount.

Speaking of which, Katie has come home wet from preschool the last two days in a row, so I'm going to be giving her her charm bracelet tomorrow. If she stays dry, she can add a new charm to it, and if she comes home wet, she loses a charm. I'm hoping it will serve as a physical reminder to stop playing and go to the potty! I'm also hoping that this will mean I need to get a LOT more charms. :lol: SO, if anyone sees charms for $1.99 or less at their RHDS, please grab them for me! I'll make a list of the specific ones I want in the ISO thread, but basically I'd love to have any except Apres Ski, Sugar Cookie, Dandelion Wishes, Pool Party, Teacher's Pet and Rocky Mountain, since I already have those.

the RHDS "stuff" is all collections up to Pool Party.
MD's tonight that go into effect for Thurs. RG, WWW, dino, layette PZ, Cherries and gator are all going to 60-70% off! The most expensive item is 14.99 I think for the cord blazer. All of the boys t's are $4.99, girls leggings 4.99 and 6.99, tops for girls 4.99-8.99, pants 10.99, etc. Mostly the same prices for boys and layette also.

So, would this just be additional markdowns on the stuff already out on display, or do they haul old lines in from the back? In other words, is there going to be anything new for me to look at compaired to when I was in there last week for FOG?

Alysia

September 21st, 2005, 02:11 PM

I was online last night when RHDS started. I dumped things in my cart- those 3.99 shorts and tops.

Then I decided I didn't want to buy stuff for later, I wanted stuff for now but I couldn't find anything else I liked- plus the prices are now higher than last week's sale.

So I logged off.

What's wrong with me?

Maybe because I realized that I already have 6 Gymbucks and a Hanna order. I must give myself a pat on the back for showing a little self control. :lol:

I got a great deal on two pair of PJ's for Caleb and some socks (MORE socks) for Ahna, and just some misc. crap IDN (I Don't Need). And ANOTHER Gymbuck. They'd better have some awesome new lines...

I want the Tip Toe ruffle pants and can't find them in my size (6-12) , so think I'll do an ISO.

I have mostly 18-24 stuff for next summer which I'd grabbed before since I know it's a popular size :aok:

Matthew got 2 short sleeved shirts, a long sleeved shirt and pants :faint: That's a new record for him and Gymbo :lol:

I bought TONS of charms because I know a couple of you are looking for them. I know Anne is. Anyone else need any? I grabbed the old ones and even a HnS one :faint:

Bridget

September 22nd, 2005, 04:40 PM

The only charms I need are some of the recent lines, and I've been waiting for them to go on sale:

It's a Girl Thing
My Best Friend
Chelsea Girl
(I think that's it.)
And probably Rocky Mountain, though haven't bought any of that line yet.

the fighter pilot hat is from the pilot Halloween costume

Lisa

:nod: And so was the fire hat. I did find the toggle coat, though, and didn't see that in the store when I was there today. And I spotted what I think is one of the holiday line dresses, and coat, and fur shrug and fur hat. I found them by opening an image up in a new window, and then changing the image number (going up in numbers) until I saw things I hadn't seen before. It's kind of a sneaky way to see things that are uploaded to the site but not actually available for sale yet. ;)

Me me me!!! I'd take ANY (ESPECIALLY the HnS one!!! :woo: )!! We already have Pool Party, Rocky Mountain, Teacher's Pet, Sugar Cookie, Apres Ski and Dandelion Wishes. I'm trying to get ALL the rest of them. :lol: The *a charm per day she stays dry* bribe is working like, well, a charm (sorry, couldn't resist), and I need lots more of them so I don't have to worry about running out!

September 23rd, 2005, 12:39 AM

We hit the RHDS today, too, but there were NO charms at our store. :rolleyes: We did score a cute couple of outfits for my niece and nephew (Petting Zoo), and the blue cabbage rose nightgown for Katie. And earned another GB, which we desperately needed. We only have two so far, and I want at least three of them for redemption! I'd prefer to have more like 5 or 6, but I don't think that will happen.

We looked for a halloween costume for Katie at Gymbo, but they were pretty picked over, and all the KG ones look way too cold for here, anyway. So, we ended up getting her this one, at the Disney Store (or Disneyland, as Katie calls it :lol: )

They only had one HnS and I think Anne's taking that. They didn't have any of the others you listed.

Nocona

September 23rd, 2005, 08:42 AM

I also got a pair of slippers for Matthew (rockets) and Sugar Cookie shoes for Sara since I just bought a whole SC ensemble :lol: Oh and a TP hat to go with her other stuff for next summer.

Jenn

September 23rd, 2005, 08:44 AM

Did anyone need a Dandelion Wishes charm? My store had a few of those and I'm going tonight to pick up some holds and exchange something so I can snag it for you.

Also, Bridget, my store had the GWL coat in a 6-12 and an 18-24. Do you want me to see if they still have it and get it for you or are you going to buy Jen's after winter is over?

Dawn

September 23rd, 2005, 09:03 AM

Nocona, since Anne is taking the HnS charm....I'd be interested if you have:
TP & BP. Let me know. :)

Oh, question: when does this rhds end? I wanted to pop by another Gymbo store (well, would you believe that James wants me to go to one to see if they still have summer stuff left!? :lol: ) I gotta say, he's just now starting to understand and appreciate this Gymbo stuff...how it works, the sales, the redemptions, etc. :up: I can actually have conversations with him about this stuff....and he'll almost know what I'm talking about! :lol:

They didn't have any BP. I think Anne may be taking my TP (I PMd her a complete list) so it's yours if she doesn't.

My store had TONS of DW charms :lol:

I still have Sweet Cupcake, Spring Fun and Apres Ski for sure as Anne already had those.

Jenn

September 23rd, 2005, 09:20 AM

So, maybe the DW charms weren't too popular, then. :lol:

I'm going to a Tier 1 today so I'll look through their charms also.

Mandi

September 23rd, 2005, 09:25 AM

My store didn't have any charms either. :dunno: Actually they had a very limited stock of RHDS at all.

I did find out that the Firehouse line and the Prima Ballerina line come out on the 25th of this month though. :woo: I thought they were listed as Oct. on GH.

Dawn

September 23rd, 2005, 09:30 AM

Ok, thanks Nocona. :) I may be hitting another Gymbo store today so I'll see what they have as well.

Jenn - ok, so sale is until Wed...thanks!

I'm going to take Jen's coat, so I think I'm good there, but THANKS!

I've been wanting to show you what I couldn't resist buying at full price.

Just got back from Gymbo! I did good with the RHDS!! :up: This one I went to had alot of stuff (summer stuff, whereas the other one had zero). I got 2 gymbucks and a $hitload of stuff all for under $130!!! I'll post later or tomorrow of what I got! :biggrin: I got things from Tropical Paradise, PP, AW and more! :up:

Bridget

September 23rd, 2005, 11:30 PM

Partner in Charm Crime, I shall make it my mission to find this for you. I know the tier 1 at my closest mall still had these recently.

http://gymbohaven.com/sugarc24.jpg

So how many Gymbucks have we all racked up? I think I have four (maybe five, but I think four) and I honestly don't know what I'll use them all on...

If I see I'm not going to use them all, I'll give someone my extra ones. But I want to see Prima Ballerina IRL and I may finally give in to my urge to prebuy undie-pants for Cay-bub. (My friend's daughter used to call DS that.)

Alysia

Bridget~ I just have one GB.

I've got 3 Gymbucks right now and I don't think I'll get anymore. I'm happy with the 3 I have.

Eva

I have 2 gymbucks which is all I want. I am hoping to use them on the new PB line.

Dawn

September 24th, 2005, 01:32 AM

I now have a total of 6 GBs.

Here's what I got. Most are for Angelina, some are for Alexia, and some for gifts. I really racked them up! :up:

I finally found these in Ang's size, to match her sister:
http://gymbohaven.com/teache159.jpg she needed these socks as well http://gymbohaven.com/mybest53.jpg

And I also got TP & HH charms. :)

Phew! I think that's it. Not bad for $129, eh? Go RHDS! :up:

Would it be bad to put clothes for Katie on MY Christmas list? :lol:

Jillian

September 24th, 2005, 03:19 AM

Grrr I went to 2 gymbos today and couldn't find $100 worth to buy...there just isn't anything I want for this year if I'm going to buy her 3 ballerina outfits...that will put her at 40 gymboree outfits for winter...and she has quite a bit of other brands too...blus she got 10 outfits for her birthday last week of no name brands...and Kincaid has like 43 gymboree outfits plus like 4 pairs of gymbo pants and 10 gymbo long sleeves shirts that can mix and match....and I did a bad job of buying ahead this year (got Janelle 2t when I should of got her 18-24 and got caid 18-24 when I should of got him 12-18)...so I don't wnat to buy ahead for next year... So I left empyt handed.

I wish I knew someone in San Francisco so I could send them the money to buy me $100 worth of PB...then I'd have the 2 more gymbucks on a line I already plan on buying. I might buy this http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140003581 for caid and soem pants to go with it...that will get me pretty close to $100...I just have to hope layette is released during the earning period.

Jillian, I feel the same way. If I could talk my mom into driving down to SF for me, I would do it in a heartbeat, but I know she's way too busy. :( But yeah, there's nothing on sale that I really want, and I don't need any more RM (especially at full price), so I'd much rather earn GBs buying stuff that I actually want, and have more GBs to use on it when redemption comes around. If only the SF store would take orders over the phone and ship!

ETA: Anyone with extra GBs - I can put them to use as well! :awink: I will definitely be getting all of PB if I can help it at all. Katie loves ballet, and I took ballet for 13 years, so this is totally up our alley! :lol:

Jillian

Kath

September 24th, 2005, 02:02 PM

I have 5 GBs...HOW did that happen?! I still haven't signed Chase & Katie up for the siblings Gymboree class that I was going to sign up for...but if I do then that will give me an additional 2 GBs. I wish you could carry over GB into the NEXT earnings period...kinda like vacation time. :lol: Not sure if I will be able to use them all but if not I'll offer them here! I want to pick up a few more RM outfits and Varsity, plus I'm sure I'll like a few things from PB.

I am starting to realize that my kids are in pretty good shape for fall/winter clothes whereas I have *nothing* for myself to wear!!! :blush: I need to fix that!!

Not a single post in here all day? That is not natural.

Do any of you subscribe to Gymboree News? The site itself isn't overly fantastic and the boards on it are dead, but I like the newsletter. It's geared toward sellers, which I'm not, but nosy I am, and I enjoy seeing top selling stuff. They have recaps of top selling items each week (I think). She also went in detail into Gymbos new policy of limiting duplicate like item purchases (resellers obviously targeted)

This last newsletter the top seller was a Folk Song 4-in-1 coat for $84!

OK and that's three posts in a row from me, which is kind of freaking me out!

Brandi, I like that too, but it's dry clean only! No way am I about to deal with that.

Here is what I'm probably going to put Sarah in for Christmas:

I may add http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140004421?$126x160$ as well, but we'll see how interested Sarah is in keeping it on her head!

The newborn is cute, but I like reds for the holidays, not pink!

Also do any boy moms have the prim and proper coat (last year holiday line) in a 9-12, or 12-18mth? I need to trade for a 18-24, I bought WAY too big for this year:(

Eva

September 26th, 2005, 01:15 PM

I will be skipping this line. I am not really that fond of it. I like the plaid jumper that Amy posted but Emma wore the VC one last Christmas which is a bit similar plus I have already bought her a Christmas dress from Hanna. Also, I am planning to use my GB on PB. :)

Yah, I signed up this summer while I was on maternity leave. I was signing up for all kinds of crap. It's only like $3 or something, so I haven't cancelled it.

The one I DO need to cancel is GymboRebel since I can't access the message boards and that's the whole reason I joined. It's just laziness that I haven't done it yet.

you have to pay for it, correct? I think I stumbled across that website but didn't want to pay for the information

I really like the boys holiday line too... especially baby boy. The train stuff is adorable. Of course that said, I won't be buying any probably. We're not doing anything big for Xmas this year and I am not about to spend $30 for a sweater vest. :nono:

Mandi

September 26th, 2005, 07:40 PM

I need some help ladies.... I found the most adorable Gymbo dress today, nwt. It's got an 2003 tag in it. It's a black corduroy dress (plain) with matching diaper cover. I really thought it was probably from Holiday Magic but I can't find it online on GH. :dunno: I wanted to try and sell it but I need to figure out what line it is first. If anyone has any clue, I'd appreciate it.

Jenn, did you look at the EBay Link I posted? I found more than one on EBay... but all of them said " I don't know what line this is from" :lol:

That's the exact same dress as the one I found on that ebay auction. :nod: No idea of a line, huh? I wonder if it's even worth keeping. I only bought it for resale.

I am a newbee to Gymboree and a guy so already I have 2 strikes against me!!!!!

I have a question?

On the Gymboree tags, it says "TRANS 2" or "FALL" or "SPRG1". Are these actually "lines" or what???? What do they mean?????? Thanks

LisaM

September 26th, 2005, 10:29 PM

That is when the line comes out

Trans2 means a transition line.

Jillian

September 26th, 2005, 10:42 PM

I found a dreess exactly like that at Ross. I was wondering why a Gymboree dress would be there. :lol:

I was just going to ask if it was a Ross/TJ Max/Marshall's dress. If so people have been talking about it on gymborebel for weeks now...I think they decided it was a piece to a line that never made it to stores for whatever reason...so it has no line.

I have no idea what the tags mean, but when you find out I'd love to know too. The cryptic messaging on the tags baffles me at times.

Yes, Gymbo needs to take heed them when hardcore babes like us can't spend all our Gymbucks something is seriously wrong!

Well I hope I really like the ballerina line because there isn't a piece int holiday line that I like. So $175 in gymbucks needs to be spent somehow. Is the ballerina line the only new one that will be out between now and gymbucks? For the first time ever, it may be hard to spend my gymbucks! :crazy:

ITA!! I'm sure that I'll find *something* to buy with GBs, but usually I'm wishing I had more GBs to spend instead wondering WTH to buy with the ones I do have! Weird....

I'm with you and Dori. Not likin the new line. Really hoping the Prima Ballerina is as cute as the pics on gymbohaven. Otherwise I'm screwed too. I have 6 or 8 gymbucks. I may be buying a ton of clearance if it comes down to it

How much? Does the scarf run big or small?

Jeni

September 27th, 2005, 02:27 PM

I *think* the scarf runs small, but my kid has a big head :lol: I'm thinking $8 for both, I paid quite a bit more than that, but that's when the scarf was really popular, and some of them nwt are going for like $20 on ebay :eek:

sabrina

September 27th, 2005, 02:33 PM

I have zero gymbucks and no desire to spend enough money to get them. I will just have to pay full price for the ballerina line because Emmalee WILL have items from this line. She loves ballet class and anything ballet.

I don't like it. :mope: I've got 3 Gymbucks to spend and now I've got to figure out what the heck I'm going to spend it on. My girls need NOTHING. We got some RG at the RHDS and we've got a bunch of CG so maybe we'll get more RM or I might possibly even get an outfit from TPet, even though I'm not a huge fan of it.

I just hate buying more fall/winter clothes right now when we've already got too many. Maybe I should just sell my GB's.

Lily is taking a Princess Ballerina class starting tomorrow. So it is PERFECT for her. I might not buy all the pieces, I'm not a huge fan of the black. But she'll love it.

I will probably also buy a few things from RM. Lily has decided she just has to have one of the poncho sweater things with a matching hat.

Plus, I have to buy that black bag with the ballerina on it so that I can pretend it's mine! It reminds me of those shiny black Barbie doll holders from the 60's. My sister had one that I always coveted. :blush1:

I copied those from GR last night and as of that time, that was all they had found of the Firehouse line. I even tried out some different numbers at the ends of those links and couldn't find anything else. I'm going to check out GR now and see if I can find something else. It's too cute, isn't it?

Jenn

September 28th, 2005, 07:46 AM

ETA: This should be pretty much everything that has a plain number SKU that's already up on the site. Sometimes Gymboree doesn't load everything at once. There are usually some basics in different colors that don't show up, because they don't fit the normal numerical pattern.

Sorry, but you're probably going to have to copy and paste those. I'm going to try to fix them in a sec.

I didn't look at all the pictures, but I am loving PB! I'm so glad FIL is taking us shopping again soon because I'll go broke buying her this line. I think Sarah and my niece are getting matching outfits from this line from me for Christmas. I'll probably get my goddaughter something from the line as well for her birthday.

Dawn

September 28th, 2005, 09:10 AM

Hmn, the line is 'ok'. I was hoping I'd like it more. I don't know...alot of the pieces, to me, seem very 'pajama-ish' looking :dunno:

Here are the pieces I DO like (see below). I'm curious to know what skirts they have, because I am loving the striped tights! So I may get this stuff....and I'll also use my GBs for my niece. She's 6 yrs. (well 6 1/2 ;) ) and she's been taking ballet since she was 3. This is TOTALLY up her alley! And her bday is 5 days after Christmas, so with that and Christmas she'll have several cute outfits, which my sister says she needs! :up: I think she's a size 6 or 7 (50 lbs., 51 inches...something like that. I'll look on the Gymbo site to see what size she'll be)

ETA: took the pics out....came out HUGE.

I like: striped sweater w/ hood, the striped tights (i'm curious to know what skirt they have), black jeans w/ the one ballerina dancing on the bottom of the pant leg (will get this w/ a plain pink shirt) , black swing top w/ the ballerina's dancing on the bottom.

Mandi

Thanks Jenn! Half way down the list it turns into PB stuff. :lol:

Not loving the FH line as much as I thought I would. :( But I'll likely get these 2 pieces...

Mandi, did you see the navy sweater with the firetruck? BTW, when does this stuff come out?

Mandi

September 28th, 2005, 10:47 AM

I did see it Jeni. But I'm not big on sweaters.. at least not here. It doesn't get cold enough to wear them very often.

I'm pretty sure the new lines come out next Monday.

Jillian

September 28th, 2005, 10:55 AM

I just hate buying more fall/winter clothes right now when we've already got too many. Maybe I should just sell my GB's.

If you do I need some, or really I need a ton!

Nicole

September 28th, 2005, 11:00 AM

I think the prima ballerina line is cute, I'll probably use my gymbucks on it and possibly the Rocky Mountain snowsuits since I really want them (not that they'll be used more than once or twice...)

Jillian

September 28th, 2005, 11:01 AM

I love love love love PB. I want the pink and white striped pompom dress, the black dress, the pink tulle skirt. The shirt that says ballet, the treasure me shirt, the ballet slipper shirt, the white shirt with the 3 ballerinas, all the leggings (except I have CSW black and black velour from last year still), the petite princess jogging suit and both long and short sleeved shirts, the striped tights, the charms, the purse...yea, you get the idea...

I don't like fire house at all...I really loved the little firetrucks layette line from a couple years ago, but not this...I will probably get the romper if it is still around at RHDS on clearance in a 2t. that's about it. I did think it was cool that there were yellow firetrucks though...the fire department in the town one over from where I grew up had yellow firetrucks and I'd never seen them anywhere else untill now.

AahRee

September 28th, 2005, 12:36 PM

I love PB! I don't think I saw a single piece that I don't want to buy! :lol: And I totally want the purse for myself. :lol: (Not to carry... just to have. :lol: ) Unless I get another job soon, I don't know how much of it I'll actually be able to buy, but I definitely WANT all of it!

Jeni

September 28th, 2005, 12:38 PM

Mandi, sorry, I forgot you are in AZ :lol:

I think I will like more of the firetruck line IRL. Not sure about the black/yellow/red combos though.

Mandi

September 28th, 2005, 12:53 PM

I hate the striped shirts. :dead: But the l/s t-shirts are all pretty cute.

Lyndee

September 28th, 2005, 02:08 PM

PB is really cute but I'm not sure if it's Lauryn. :dunno:

The firetruck stuff is cute too!

I got this dress yesterday for $12.99:

http://www.gymbohaven.com/romant1.jpg

I did not like RG at all but this dress is just adorable! Great fabric and looks so comfy. I was running out of dresses for Lauryn so I'm really glad I found this. Matched perfectly with an H&M cardigan that I got last year.

I'm getting a tad bit nervous about this whole Gymbucks thing this time around. I still have some things on my cart right now. If I buy them, I'll end up with 6 Gymbucks. Can I possibly find $300 more worth of clothes??? I can't decide right now if Lauryn has too much or not enough- mainly because I don't know what she'll end up refusing to wear! For this past summer, I got a bunch of bike shorts that she didn't wear too much so while I thought I had a lot, I was out of stuff to put on her by the end of the summer.

So why don't we do a GQOTD about this---

Of all the stuff you got this past summer, what pieces were used/not used the most? How will you plan for next summer?

GQOTD:

Okay, I'll answer first--

Too many bikeshorts, not enough casual (t-shirt-type) tops.
I should have gotten more capris. I loved the knit SF one.
Nearly not enough dresses- I'll have to buy more of that next time.
Got the SF jeans but she has only worn them 3x tops.

September 28th, 2005, 02:23 PM

Of all the stuff you got this past summer, what pieces were used/not used the most?

Used the most:
Denim Shorts from Spring Fun! They go with so much and they hide dirt! :up:
http://www.gymbohaven.com/summer66.jpg
Tankini from Spring Fun and I used the Floral Tote for our pool trips on the weekend. I cried when I put the swim suit on my daughter and we ended up going to the beach one day. It really got dingy from the sand. :(
http://www.gymbohaven.com/sumrai28.jpg http://www.gymbohaven.com/sumrai22.jpg

For Ben, these overalls were awesome! Lightweight and washed up well. :up:
http://www.gymbohaven.com/rainfo57.jpg

Seldom or not used:
From Pool Party.. we just never got to wear these. Look for them for sale next year! :)
http://www.gymbohaven.com/pool2046.jpghttp://www.gymbohaven.com/pool2056.jpg
http://www.gymbohaven.com/summer8ww6.jpg

How will you plan for next summer?

Less dressy stuff. I don't send her to school in Gymboree and on the weekends we're at the pool and beach, so she doesn't get much chance to wear the nicer items.
More casual dresses to throw on over her swimsuits.
NO matching hats! She just doesn't wear them!

We didn't have much Gymbo for the summer. The little bit she had, she wore a lot. It didn't help that she changed sizes over the summer.

How will you plan for next summer?

Probably more bike shorts and swing tops. I just loved the set she had from SF. I also didn't get her any dresses from Gymbo this past summer. I'll probably get her a couple next summer.

Tankini from Spring Fun and I used the Floral Tote for our pool trips on the weekend. I cried when I put the swim suit on my daughter and we ended up going to the beach one day. It really got dingy from the sand. :(

I think these were one of my favorite pieces this summer. I got the swimskirt off the clearance rack so of course I had to scour ebay for the tankini. And after obssessing over the bag for so long, I'm glad I got it. We got way more use of it than I thought. Lauryn wore this outfit and carried the bag to Water play 2x/week for the whole summer.

Seldom or not used:
From Pool Party.. we just never got to wear these. Look for them for sale next year! :)
http://www.gymbohaven.com/pool2046.jpg

I have this top too and I was thinking about returning it for merchandise credit. I paid $11 for it along with some other tops that she never wore.

http://www.gymbohaven.com/summer8ww6.jpg

I love this hat, but you're right, my kid will never wear it. I was just hoping she'd wear it long enough for one good picture. :( I kept thinking that I'd buy the hat for resale later on even if she doesn't wear it.

Lily LOVED wildflower fields. So all of that is now in play condition. The swimsuits all got a ton of use. She went through a phase this summer that she HATED bike shorts. So they got very little use. I may even have some with their tags still on them.

How will you plan for next summer?
I'll let her decide more of what we buy. She was definitely very opinionated already this year as to what she wanted to wear when and what she didn't want to wear at all.

I already bought ahead for next year. I have a ton of Aloha Wahine which Lily LOVED. We also really liked Pool party so both girls have a bunch of both. I'll probably go less matchy/matchy as Isabella gets older (despite Lily's whining and crying about not matching her babysister).

Eva

September 28th, 2005, 05:18 PM

Of all the stuff you got this past summer, what pieces were used/not used the most?

Used the most:
From Spring Fun. I loved this outfit on her.
http://gymbohaven.com/summer8v6.jpg
http://gymbohaven.com/summer826.jpg

The Least:
Only worn once. It was still big for her at the beginning and then she didn't have the oppurtunity to wear it more. We were suppose to go on a trip wher e I thought she could wear it but it got cancelled (Wedding we were attending was cancelled).

http://gymbohaven.com/bonjou95.jpg

What is your plan for next Summer?
More comfy dresses like her Sweet Cheeries Polo dress, more bike shorts. Since a lot of her Summer clothes still have quite a bit of growing room and Emma is fairly tiny I hope that she gets to wear some of them again. A few of her 12-18 months clothes from last Fall that ran big (eg JF overalls) still fit her.

Of all the stuff you got this past summer, what pieces were used/not used the most?

The least -- I bought this right after she was born to wear to my stupid brother's wedding. Everything went wrong on the way and she didn't even get to wear it. I put her in it once to take to my mom's church and then she outgrew it. I'm buying it again for next summer!
http://gymbohaven.com/sweetw2.jpg
I also bought this twice trying to find one to fit her and then we never took her swimming, even on our vacation!!! So maybe I'll buy a THIRD for next summer! :nod:
http://gymbohaven.com/sugarc36.jpg

The most -
http://gymbohaven.com/babyke23.jpghttp://gymbohaven.com/pool2021a.jpghttp://gymbohaven.com/pool2025a.jpg
http://gymbohaven.com/alohaW60.jpghttp://gymbohaven.com/alohaW26.jpg
http://gymbohaven.com/tropic103.jpghttp://gymbohaven.com/tropic109.jpg
She was so little and we were home most of this summer seeing no one so she really didn't get into the summer stuff until August when she started daycare. Until then she lived in her sleepers and some other soft stuff from Monkey and Friends, like this one!
http://gymbohaven.com/monkey45.jpg
How will you plan for next summer?

Heck, I've already practically completed next summer's wardrobe... :tongue2: Pool party, BP, AW, HH, and TP are my faves. I try to stick with mostly shirts and shorts since it's generally too hot here for pants. Then I've bought a few dresses, just because I :hb: them!

I haven't bought any shoes ahead, because who knows the size... so those may be ebay items!!

Oh - and her bikinis from MV & WFF and her 1 piece from GWL. She gave her suits all a very very good workout!!!!

Other than that, everything else I bought got worn its fair share of times, especially the bike shorts. I know that is what I'll go for next year....they seem to fit the best. Other shorts are just to big in the waist.

I didnt buy ahead for next summer, except for one AW outfit (ribbon tank & bike shorts) b/c I am not sure if she'll have developed an opinion about her clothes by then :lol:

Hi all! I'm Lori and new to the whole gymbo thing. :) I'm orignally from OH and didn't have any near me so I never even thought about it. We were on vaction in CA last year and bought my daughter, Lindsey, a dress while there at Gymbo. I think my husband could have dies when they said the total. LOL

But I never put any more thought into it until we moved here to TX. They are every where!!! I swear I have 5 stores all in a 20 mile radius of me. So I've become addicted.

I was looking at the PB line and LOVE it!! I can't wait to see what it looks like. I kind of got a sneek peek at it in our store tonight. They only had the PJ's out though in PB and Firetruck but I thought both were cute and looked comfy. Plus I LOVE the Hiloday line. We have a wedding to go to in MN in December so I was thinking of gettingthe plaid jumper for my daughter and matching plaid shirt for my son. I thought that would be adorable!!

Anyways, I have a question though. I'm waning to put items on hold but I don't know how it works. How long can you put an item on hold?

Thanks!

I think just 24 hours but I am not sure.

Welcome Lori! What part of TX are you in? I lived in the Dallas area for about 20 years!

Pretty sure it's just a 24 hour hold.. unless you get someone very nice. :lol:

I saw the FH pj's today... they were putting them out. Very cute. :aok:

The holiday stuff is up now.

I really like this:

But there is no way I could spend $52 on it. I guess I could use my GB with it.
That would make it more reasonable. Considering I only spent $14 on her Christmas dress last year! :lol:

Ok, some Mom in one of my other groups have 37 gymbucks... How is that even possible?? I can't even figure out the math.

$50x37= 1850

So she can then spent $1850/2= $925.

Is this the lady from the Today show? Geeez.

The only thing I can think of is that she's buying clearance stuff to resell on ebay. :nod: A LOT of sellers buy a ton of stuff during the sales that correspond with GB earning or redemption to stock up, and then either sell it in an ebay store, or put it up for auction when it's the right season again. My hubby would absolutely kill me if I made that kind of an investment (both the $$$ and also the time it would take to list all that), but I know some people do it and make some $$$, or, at a minimum, clothe their own children for free. But wouldn't it suck to be shopping in that Gymbo after that lady got done? :dead: There'd be NOTHING left. :mope:

I thought I had a lot of GBs last time, and I only had 5! :lol: Which still seems like a lot to me, for one child, so I can't even fathom 37!!!

We put the holiday stuff out last night at the store. The dress Alysia posted is adorable (esp. in person), but it's dry clean only. No way am I going to deal with that. Sarah's a spitter, and I know I'll spend all of Christmas freaking out about whether or not she's going to barf on it. This is what she's going to wear:

minus the hair bows (although she is getting more hair these days, but probably not enough for those by Christmas)

Of all the stuff you got this past summer, what pieces were used/not used the most? How will you plan for next summer?

When I started buying summer clothes Janelle was in cloth diapers and showed no interest in potty training...I discovered she could wear pants (for the first time in her life) if I rolled down the waist band and she had on a cloth diaper with two inserts... So I bought these things...

And some more, but Caid decided to cuddle so finding pictures is difficult, but we had capris and a top from WFF, tank top and shorts from Candy Apple, something from fruit punch...just a bunch of two piece outfits and a couple pairs of shortalls.

Then in March she decided to potty train and that was it...none of these clothes really fit her again. Some of those outfits NEVER got worn, and none of them more than twice. :( I had to go out memorial day weekend and buy her bike shorts and shirts to go with them so she had something she could wear. I also went on e-bay and got bike shorts to match the splash tops...we ended up owning every single striped piece of splash in 12-18 months.

The outfit that got worn the most was definitely this...
http://gymbohaven.com/IceCre119.jpghttp://gymbohaven.com/IceCre127.jpg-cause it is definitely Janelle's favorite outfit...I think it looks pretty silly, but I'm not 3.

We also wore our polka dot ssdd stuff a lot, and BP quite a bit.

For next summer...well, most of the bike shorts I bought this summer were a size 3 since I discovered that size 3 were smaller in the waist then 12-18 months, so she will be able to wear them for years to come...at this rate probably untill the summer she turns 6. But all the shirts were 12-18...so the first thing I have to do is buy new shirts for all her current bike shorts...I'm going to buy a mix of 18-24 and 2t most likely. Then she will need new dresses almost all of them were 12-18...I'll buy her 2t dresses most likely. And I'm hoping that this tonsilectomy she is having corrects her sleep apnea and there for makes her start growing...if so then she will be big tall enough to get some size 3 pants with adjustable waists and hopefully we can get them to fit and she can have some more cute two piece outfits next year that actually get worn!
