[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s one of those right place, right time things. I popped in once and found lots of Baby Boden on the final markdown rack. For less than $35 I got $200 worth of Baby Boden (that had the original prices still on it). But that doesn’t happen every time. You need to know when to time the shipments. [/quote]

But why did you want $200 worth of baby Boden? I have a growing kid, I get that I often need to buy a bunch of new kid clothes. But when I need them, I need them. Buying way in advance usually doesn’t work because I don’t know what size we’ll be in what season.

Whenever I buy clothes for myself, too, without knowing what I’m about to wear them to they end up sitting in my closet forever. I don’t have room to just buy random stuff because it’s a good deal. [/quote]

LOL $200 worth of Baby Boden is like two tops, a set of pjs, and a dress. [/quote]

Yeah but why would I want that?? When would I ever be in a situation where my kid needs two tops, a set of PJs and a dress and I haven’t already just bought them and I wandered into a Nordstrom Rack and there they were? If my kid needed those things, going to a Nordstrom rack would not be a good strategy right? You don’t know what they’ll have. So if I needed those things, I’ve already ordered them.

I guess the point of this thread is some people really like browsing and either holding an open need until they come across a bargain, or getting stuff before they need it and storing it. I hate all three of those things. I don’t want to buy random le crueset pots, I just want to outfit the kitchen once. If/when something in the kitchen is broken or otherwise needs replacing, I want to replace it quickly and directly. When I’m looking for the replacement, I want to use digital search.

lol ps if you can’t tell I grew up in a loving but disorganized home with my mother who had a real thing for crate and barrel. [/quote]
