Gymboree is closing

They are closing all stores. So if you have gift cards you have 30 days to use them. They are trying to keep Janie and Jack as a store.

Oh man... that’s so sad.

I still have stuff I bought years ago from there (that went through 3 girls and tons of stuff with no shrinking, staining or ripping). Loved the styles too.

The newest stuff was not as good... but I still loved picking up some items from them. DD loved their fleece lined pants (which they sold out of months ago... so ??? On their planning).

Boo.

Ok. Done with my rant.

Brick and mortar stores just can't compete with the convenience and more importantly the Selection, of online.

I was in Target abd and they had these cute Valentine's leggings for my daughter. It was over a month before Vday and all they had left were 2 pairs of XL and 1 Large.
I went online and got her size no issue. Plenty of selectiom and sizes left.

It's just too easy and convenient to shop online these days

So cute. They have hearts on the knees.
I think they had some other styles as well.

Yes! I loved the fleece lined leggings- Children's Place had them too and sold out before it got cold at all. Chat Icon

So disappointed. They were the only place that I found underwear for DD that fit perfect.

Honestly their stuff is way overpriced for the quality. Their stuff always faded after like 2 washes. I did like crazy 8 though. Sad for the employees....

I used to do so well with their sales and coupons when DS was a toddler, and I would get at least two years out of their shirts and jackets for him. I haven’t bought from them in awhile since DS is older and I wasn’t a fan of their styles. I wound up getting a bunch of cute baby clothes online last night from them for SILs baby since everything is on sale.

Ugh! ARe you kidding?? That sucks! I can always count on them to have coordinating clothing for my sons for the holidays. I can always find outfits in each size that compliment each other without being matchy match. They always have great things for every holiday too. Whomp whomp so sad. I better hit the outlet now to see if they have easter out yet. Buying for boys is so hard, especially for dressy occasions. Gymboree and J&J always had just what I was looking for. Target, Old Navy, CP, all of those places are good for play clothes only for boys IMO. I'm so bummed!

Not surprised ... they got way too expensive. They may have been decent quality but as for styles ...ehhh... not worth it, they went way down. You can also get decent quality elsewhere for less $$$$.
