What’s On Sale

Baby Sales continue this week - After an intense 6 weeks of focus on Back-to-School for kids, early September brings annual Baby Sales for several retailers. Check Gymboree, Pumpkin Patch, Baby Gap, Gap Outlet, Old Navy and Crazy8 for 20-40% deals on baby clothing and accessories this weekend. You’ll also find Baby Sales galore at your local department and discount stores, such as Macy’s and Target.

We’re also seeing additional markdowns on Fall Transition lines, taken at: Janie and Jack, Naartjie, Pumpkin Patch, Hanna Andersson, Crazy 8, and The Children’s Place.
