Gymbucks redemption is upon us!

Those of you who have been earning Gymbucks - redemption starts on July 15th!  I LOVE Gymbucks! I don't go too crazy at Gymboree, but if you always use a coupon and enjoy searching the sale racks it is kinda silly NOT to shop there if you have small kids. 

My kids both have several TONS of gymboree clothing that were less than $4 (plus a coupon discount on top of that!) My daughter already has a beautiful raw silk Christmas dress that was originally $50+ that was marked down to $8.99! (plus I used Gymbucks so it was really only about 1/2 that!) Try to find a deal like that at Walmart even - you can't beat it!  The best strategy is always to shop for the next size up on the clearance racks, I know they are gonna be bigger next year - I would rather buy something at 80% (or more) off and let it hang in the closet for a few months rather than pay full price next year.

Also - this isn't for everyone, but have any of you ever sold on Ebay? I sell many of my kids "Excellent Used Condition" Gymboree & surf brand items on Ebay.  More often than not my items are bid up and sold for MORE THAN WHAT I PAID FOR THEM! What?!  Heck- we don't have any equity in our house - but at least we have some in our closets ;)  If you are considering this make sure to research both online safety and also the best strategies for selling - it can be tedious - but it can be a great way to clear out and make a little extra money at the same time.

I'll see ya at Gymboree!
