Gymboree Outlet

jnbythesea · 07-20-2006, 09:01 PM

What do you think: Woohoo or "whatever"? Because I'm getting one about 20 minuted from home in September! My dd is very tall and big for her age, and the Gymbo stuff really fits her better than anything else. I'm pretty excited but don't want to get my hopes up too high for super bargains in case it's a dud.

Its so so IMO. I don't have one nearby. but I'm on lots of loops. LOL Anyway, What they do is remake popular lines. But they don't run sales like the regular gymbos do. Here is the link to Gymbohaven, she has some great outlet info on here if you want to check it out.

Depends on what you are looking for, I suppose. I don't do alot of outlet shopping, I'd rather hit the sales at the regular gymbo.

I don't personally like them!

I don't want to buy things that have already been out, ya know! That's just me! I like buying all the new lines and then getting the thrill of outbidding people on Ebay for what I need and want! LOL

Just me though!!!

The outlet near me is just their regular stuff just like the store, no major sales or deals, not much cheaper IMO. I'll stop in there when I go to the outlets but I wouldn't make a special trip out for Gymboree, Children's Place, that's another story!

Well you know I'm a gymboholic, I'm not impressed. I have two near me, I went twice. The prices aren't much cheaper, the quality is poorer (printed instead of embroidered for example) and they don't have good sales! You can get nicer items cheaper at the regular store through the friends and gymbucks sales!

Totallly agree with that! LOL

Hmm... pretty much what I was afraid of, since no one ever raves about them. And if the Mommysavers don't think it's good, you just have to wonder. Well, at least it will be fun to stop into every now and then. We are getting a whole big outlet shopping center. There will also be a Stride Rite outlet. Now that I really AM excited about.

Not to burst your bubble about stride rite, but ours isn't very good. I was so excited for it because my sons first several pairs of shoes were stride rites and they are expesive, but they weren't very much cheaper and they did not have a lot of stride rite brand. The only thing I bought there was a pair of dress sandals for ds. They were Tommy Hilfiger and were 24.00 which is probably more that I should have paid (could have found cheaper sandals elsewhere), but they fit good and looked good.

Wow, our Gymboree is priced really high, even their clearance items. The clothes are freaking adorable, but I would rather go to Old Navy. Our Gap stores shut down, but I use to find good deals there.
