Finding Bargains On Baby Clothes On The Net

Everything is on the Internet these days and I am not ashamed to say so. It's a shame that we're given such limited time in our short lives to do the things we love so much. As a result, it has become very difficult for me to find time to shop for my daughter as she is growing older. There have been a few instances when I just had no idea what she would be in soon and I needed to get something ASAP but couldn't find anything. That's where some of my favorite auction sites came into my rescue.

            Now, I have no problem with taking a loss. I'm not being paid to shop here and can usually pick up something for around 20-30% off retail price so I take a loss and get it over with. However, what you'll find in this article is that you don't actually have to get burned on any of the items you purchase through my links. If you're observant enough, most of the items purchased will be completely undamaged. Feel free to share these links regardless of whether they work for you or not:

            Amazon

Yes, it's true. Amazon will sell you some items at reduced prices. I have purchased a few things from them and been pleasantly surprised at the actual quality of what I received. 

            eBay

Another one that will sell you items at reduced prices, which usually carry a warranty if you're ever dissatisfied with your purchase. Occasionally, they also have some fun and seasonal merchandise as well.

            Thrift Stores (both local and online)

Before I started making my life as difficult as possible, I shopped around for baby clothes at thrift stores for cheaper prices than what I could find them in the stores. I found that they were cheaper than even the discounted ones you find in stores typically. And, if you don't mind buying used, the condition of them was usually excellent. You can also try auction sites such as craigslist or Freecycle to get some lower prices on clothes for your infant

            Where abouts do you buy your children's clothes?

If there is a store out there that always has great discounts on baby clothes and/or happens to be near where I live, I'd really love to know! Please share your experiences with me! [ARTICLE END] So, there you have it. The evidence has been presented and now it's up to the readers to decide how they feel about this news. I'm sure I'll continue to be the target of so called, "shill" comments but I guess that's what you've all come to know and love me for. This is the kind of information that people want to know about so please don't take no for an answer.

I have a two year old and he is very picky about his clothes. You only have a few options other than buying them from big chain stores like walmart, target, etc. Target used to have some decent plus sized boy's clothing but they stopped carrying it a few years ago. I can't stand to see kids wearing only what they get at a baby store, Walmart, or Sears. None of these stores even have nice clothes for kids and they are usually the only place you can get them...

May I be so bold to suggest you go back to the internet where most of your sources came from? If it's too fly, too good to be true, looks like a scam....

I'm a stay-at-home mom. I don't really shop any certain store but when it comes down to finding some clothes that will fit my son in toddler sizes I always head over to Joann's. I go to Joann's when I need to buy dress-up clothes for my son for his Halloween costume. They always have more than one outfit that will fit my son and they are pretty cheap. The only problem is that I don't really have the time to head out there during the busy season so if I did run into it in a store, then I'd go with a coupon. Also, when you are looking at Kids Stuff, Amazon has some great deals on their own but don't forget to look at their entire store via Amazon Prime.

I was always on the lookout for cheap deals. I use to scour the newstand for coupons when I had a new baby, and even went through the penny racks in stores and clearance racks to find clothes that I needed. Most of the time, they are in perfect condition. If you're looking for clothes for a 2 year old boy, then grab these items from eBay: http://bitly.com/yRCZ96

Thanks for this very informative article. It's great that you were able to get some really great deals on baby clothes. I'm so glad that you were able to save so much money on stuff for my son.

I was looking for really good deals on clothes for my son and had to go into downtown where all the stores are. I think they have some deals but not too great. But I did find things secondhand at Goodwill, Target and Walmart. The secondhand clothing was in great condition.

Just got back from Egypt, where they buy everything off the Internet, including baby clothes! That's how we shop there now! (Btw, when I lived there, we couldn't even get diapers!!) Just sayin'...

I used to look for sales and used coupons all the time. When my son was a toddler, I would go into the Walmart in the morning and see what they had on clearance. I usually didn't buy anything because it was either way overpriced or pretty worn out. He has grown out of some of his clothes now that he can wear a 3T or 4T but I still have clothes he wore when he was a 2T that are still in good condition. I have picked up things at thrift stores and garage sales along with some things from consignment stores but mostly secondhand is where I get my baby clothes now since we also shop online for clothes too.

I love to look for great deals on clothes for my son. The thing that I like about shopping online is that you don't have the hassle of trying stuff on. If I find something that I like, then I can order it right there without having to drive all over the place. Since I live in a small town, there aren't any big name stores that sell clothes at low prices, so online is where I get almost everything now.

I live in the United States and our dollar is very weak compared to other countries like China and India who make a lot of our clothing here now.

I live in Norway and often buy clothes for my daughter from second hand stores since there is not a lot of choice here.
