Pea in a Pod is EXPENSIVE

My goodness. I walked in there and saw such beautiful things, but jeez!

Re: Pea in a Pod is EXPENSIVE

When I go to Destination Maternity, I walk straight to the back so I don't get tempted with the Pea in a Pod selection.

Re: Pea in a Pod is EXPENSIVE

I can't even.

yesterday in Kohls!!!, I was almost in tears b/c of how "marmy" the clothes were in there...but the prices were great.

Pea in a Pod or some of these other boutique places have some really nice stuff, but at the end of the day I couldn't justify the cost.

I think though, that IF I EVER do this again, I will plan to treat myself a little better in terms of what I wear. sometimes I look at myself and what to puke.

Re: Pea in a Pod is EXPENSIVE

Tell me about it. I love the stuff, but I try not to buy from them. Only special things.

Re: Pea in a Pod is EXPENSIVE

I feel the same way - i think I got a few great pieces at Destination Maternity at Tanger.

Re: Pea in a Pod is EXPENSIVE

i kind of think they are a rip off. it's the same company as motherhood with different designers.

i bought two pairs of corduroys from motherhood at destination maternity for $35 each.

as i was walking out i saw the same exact pants (even the tags looked similar) that were pea in a pod brand for $68 each.

these pants are the perfect length, fit, everything and super comfy. they are definitely not slacking on quality!!

Re: Pea in a Pod is EXPENSIVE

Everytime i walk into one of those stores i say a small prayer of thanx to the people who gave me 5 garbage bags of maternity clothes... i dont really work so i am happy with the hand me downs with afew pieces i added

Re: Pea in a Pod is EXPENSIVE

I know how you feel! I went to the one in Macys Herald Square and I was mad that they wouldn't take my Macys coupons. lol I have only bought two items there. A black dress for weddings this summer and fall which was normally $270 on sale for $99 and I feel I can wear it for future pregnancies, and a black sweater I got for $50 on sale. The rest of my clothes are from gap, old navy and normal clothes that work as maternity.

Re: Pea in a Pod is EXPENSIVE

i went to the outlest in riverhead for work clothes and i picked up a pair of pants from pea in a pod...they were $95 marked downs from $185!!! i cant see spending that much on clothes i will only wear for a few months

Re: Pea in a Pod is EXPENSIVE

Sometimes they have good sales. I got some really good deals on the Mimi Maternity stuff that is their in-between brand.
Also check out their website (Destination Materinity) They have more there than they do in the stores.
H&M has some decent looking stuff, but their selection is not too big. I got some nice stuff at Gap.
Ann Taylor Loft also has some pretty maternity stuff.

Re: Pea in a Pod is EXPENSIVE

I only buy sale. I walk straight to the Motherhood section, but then the sales people always bring me things from Pea in a Pod to try on - I'm like what don't you get, I'm a cheapo, do not bring me anything over $20!

Re: Pea in a Pod is EXPENSIVE

It is expensive.

I went to a Maternity Works store at an outlet mall outside Orlando, FL and got some AMAZING deals on Pea in the Pod clothes (including a PITP winter coat originally $350 reduced to $59!!).

I'm sure they must have other maternity outlet stores in the outlets on or near LI? It was TOTALLY worth the trip for me - I got so many clothes for so little money.
