For those of you who followed my post on how to dress your kids for free in Gymboree (go here if you haven't read it), I thought I would share with you a few of the items I purchased for my daughter recently on sale and with Gymbucks. (I haven't had to buy much for my son; I stocked up for him last spring for summer items a size bigger, and he is just now growing into them, so his summer wardrobe is complete.)
The top picture is from the Social Butterfly line. The "little sister" shirt & bike shorts retails for $32.50; I bought it for $6.79 by buying it on sale and using Gymbucks. (That is 80% off!!) I hope to sell it on eBay for roughly $9.95 when my daughter outgrows it.
The picture of the three rompers (I love these rompers; they are perfect for wearing cloth diapers underneath!) include the gingham one in the middle, also from the Social Butterfly line. This one retails for $29.75; I bought it for $5.82 (again, 80% off). The solid pink one is from the Flower Garden line and retails for $29.75; I paid $7.77; the same applies to the striped pink one.
The monkey outfit was my pricy one. When my daughter was born, there was an adorable layette line with a pink shirt that said "daddy's little monkey". We bought that outfit for her in 0-3 months and 6-12 months. She hasn't outgrown the 6-12 month one yet, but it is getting too warm to wear. So, when I saw this monkey outfit from the Jungle Gem line, I had to buy it. I only got it 50% off because it is a brand new line and I used my Gymbucks. I paid $25.63 for it. I have a hunch this line will hold its value at resale, so I am hoping I will sell it for around $18 (and I will lose $7.63 on it.)
These are some examples of how I dress my kids for free (or mostly free if I can avoid the impulse buys like the monkey outfit!!!).
Gymbucks ends on 4/26, but the rumor is that Gymbucks earning will begin again on 4/27. To make the most of your money, wait to buy clothes until Gymboree offers great sales AND you earn Gymbucks!

I love Gymboree. I read your post awhile back. I've been "making money" at Gymboree since my 4 year old was little. They have the best quality. Cute finds today.
