Hope your children don't come crying to you OP when they get turned down for financial aid and you have no retirement fund! GL. Teach your children something other than "name brands", will you? Pitiful. |
OP...is this poster you?

Honey, if you are buying sale, you can't afford it. |
OP, I'd like to refer you to another threat started today called "why are American children so spoiled." |
dude, you sell used clothes for $3/pop? that is embarrassing and pathetic. |
OP, I stopped hanging out with shallow people like you a long time ago. Not only did it feel GREAT at the time, but it feels great seeing the repercussions now. |
To all the people who think she is shallow and wasting money? Where do you shop? Don't listen to them op, buy what you like. Myself and most of our friends have well dressed kids. DS wears a lot of Vineyard Vines, for me the quality is worth it and he has been able to get 2 full years out of most items bc of the generous cut. Some parents who only wear trash frequently comment on the cost but I almost guarantee if I made a spreadsheet I have spent less.
Plus it's my choice and I prefer to teach my children from a young age to take pride in their appearance |
I am a little surprised that this clothing is considered to be very expensive. DD has several Burberry and Gucci items - they are more expensive than this yet nothing outrageous. I am not crazy about J & J style though I will probably purchase a few items eventually. |
I was ok with your post until the last part. What a bitchy thing to say! You don't have to shop at J&J, or any high-priced establishment, in order to "take pride in your appearance." |
OMG please stop dressing your kids like granddad at St. Michael's before they get into grade school. |
Fairly certain that people are just being polite by commenting on the cost. What they really think is that you are a snobby bitch, but just haven't voiced those exact words. The bolded parts pretty much ensure that they are correct. |
Most of my friends and I, dumdum. Stop trying to sound so educated, it's a complete fail. Some parents who only wear trash? Nice. You're a real winner, I can tell. |
OP, if you like J&J, try the clothes at Wheat. Their flagship store is in Annapolis and they have a couple of big sales during the year. Just call and ask, but I know one is usually in August. Their clothes are adorable and well-made and, if you have girls, most of their dresses are cut so that they can grow with the kid and become tunics and be worn for years.

Honey, that stuff is cheap. And you're an awful person. |
Good thing you are all so superior, I aspire to be just like you. |
