PhoenixRulz81 says "Old Navy clothes are expensive and Sized small" about Old Navy Infants and Toddlers Clothing

PhoenixRulz81 — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 00:34:53 GMT

I thought that the Old Navy clothing would be a great buy compared to other stores, I had heard many good things. I think it's if the item is on clearance. For one, My daughter doesn't fit 12-18 month clothes and she is only 7 months. So I bought clothes that looked like they would fit her (18-24 mth pjs) but they don't stretch and almost didn't get on her, and then the sleeves were really tight on her wrists - babies have small wrists and mine is not fat. So there goes some clothes that cost $14 for one outfit and I had to try to rip the seams to not hurt her wrists. Outfits do shrink in the wash - other clothing brands I buy do not. Some of the clothes for toddlers are a little old - little girls should not be wearing little half shirts and skirts, this is what predators go after. There are some classic designs which I find very tasteful. I did find a summer dress that was sleeveless so I won't have the wrist issue and I had a sweater from another place to accesorize it for a Xmas dress.......

PhoenixRulz81 says "Carter's clothing Keeps it's size" about Carter's Onesies

Carter's clothing holds its size when washed - is sized bigger than other brands (i.e. Old Navy) and really stays comfortable and like new - stains come out easy. My 8 month old wears size 6 or 9 months (snugly) in some pjs but I just started the 12 months in the onsies, she will wear them for awhile and they are easy designs to pass on to my friends with younger girls. I tend to get them at Babies R Us on clearence or with sale coupons so they are not that awfully priced compared to Gymboree, The Children's Place and Osh Gosh. Company has been around for a long time and has kept their standards. KUDOS

PhoenixRulz81 says "L'il Critters Calcium Gummy vitamins - Best tasting!!" about L'il Critters Groovy Multivitamin Gummy Bears with Calcium and Vitamin D

I usually buy these in the 200ct bottle at Costco for $10 and they last me a while - Yes a parent who eats children's vitamins, with the added calcium it helps since after 30 I will lose bone density and can't increase it. I have tried the regular gummy vites and the Omega-3 vites. I think the Omega-3's are sour and odd flavored. The regular gummies are alright but a bit chewy. I have TMJ so the extra chewing is a pain. I love the fact that they are natural compared to some children's vitamins like Flinstones, which leave an lovely aftertaste.

I even tried out the Disney Princess and Cars vitamins - they don't even compare to the the regular gummies and that was just taste not even price comparison. Oh yes - not sure why they list them as Groovy on here, my packaging never said anything that ridiculous.

PhoenixRulz81 says "love the virtual fit application" about LandsEnd.com

Allows me to add my own measurements to see how clothing fits me. PLus I have never been on the site and it sent me samples of some of the sweaters for free to help me decide on colors, with current outfits....

PhoenixRulz81 says "Odd layout, easy shopping downstairs." about Sears - El Cajon, CA

PhoenixRulz81 — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 06:22:50 GMT

Easy to go in a circle to buy most common items upstairs, same layout downstairs, the escalator and elevator are easily accessable - woman's bathroom is large and never feels crowded, seating for those that may be waiting. Employees are always friendly....
