HAUL: Toddler January Sale Shopping

The sales have well and truly begun, both online and in-store, in fact many sales are beginning to increase in reduction value now. Every year I start buying Isabella's wardrobe for the next year, so most of these purchases were in 2-3 years. There are even some pieces for our baby due in June, the clothes are so teeny tiny! Other than Next I did all of this sale shopping online over Christmas Eve to the day after Boxing Day. Now putting together the pieces into this post I've realised that I haven't really got Isabella any Christmassy clothes for next year, so I'll be keeping an eye of for further reduced items over the next few weeks.

TODDLER: Next Summer Sale Haul

I thought I'd share what we picked up for Isabella from the Next sale this weekend. We are currently buying clothes in the summer sales in 2-3 years, with the hope that they will fit Isabella next summer. They look so huge, but then I can remember buying her 12-18 months last summer and those seeming huge. It's all relative I guess. I was surprised at how quiet our local store was yesterday and I heard a number of people working there saying how unusually quiet it had been so far. This was obviously good for us sale shoppers as it meant there was plenty of stock and choice. There are also a couple of sale bargains from Morrisons at the end of this post that I picked up this week.

BABY: My Last of the January Sales Haul...Probably

So I've been doing some more bargain hunting and sale shopping again. Some of the best bargains are around now, as stores have significantly reduced items in an effort to shift them. JoJo Maman Bebe has currently got some fantastic deals with Christmas jumpers reduced from £22 to £4! Unfortunately these don't seem to be available online and there are mostly smaller sizes in my local stores, but worth checking out your local store. I picked up a lot of these clothes this past week instore, so there are still plenty of bargains to be had. The last four pieces in this haul are gifts - I just couldn't resist their cuteness, tiny sizes and incredible prices! This should be my last haul, though if you have followed this blog for a while you will know how hard I find it to resist baby clothes.

BABY: Recent Baby Purchases #2

Surprise, surprise...I've been shopping for baby clothes again. Well actually I picked these pieces up over a good couple of weeks. Though the sales are quickly leaving the stores we've stumbled across some good pieces still left, so it's worth keeping an eye out. Seeing all of the baby girl autumn/winter clothes entering the stores has me so excited for this season! Isabella is going to live in dungarees, long-sleeved vests, peter pan collars and woolly tights and I can't wait :)

BABY: Last few SALE purchases...

Ok, ok I know that I have done quite a lot of sale shopping but these really are the last few pieces I've picked up in the summer sales this year! I absolutely love a bargain and when I found a free delivery code for Debenhams, it made these purchases even more reasonable. A lot of the clothes below are still in stock, so I've added the links if you like them too. The dresses are 6-9 months, as I thought they'd be good on the run up to winter when paired with a cardigan and tights. I also picked up a couple more items for next summer in 12-18 months, I really hope she is in this size next summer otherwise my forward planning will have failed!

BABY: Next Summer Sale Haul 2015

This is a completely unplanned blog post, but after receiving an email about the Next sale starting yesterday I couldn't not go! Any excuse for a bargain and very much like the JoJo Maman Bebe sale I picked up clothes for next summer. There are a couple of 6-9 month pieces that I thought would be perfect for autumn/winter too. I picked all of this up at two different Next stores, neither of which I visited particularly early. We left the last store at about 3.30pm yesterday and there was still lots of stock, so I'd imagine there would be a fair amount to pick up today (Sunday 19th July 2015). There are also a couple of items from F&F Clothing, Boots and Mothercare that I thought I'd share with you too.

BABY: Marks and Spencers Sale Haul

I've expressed my love for the Marks and Spencer's baby and children clothes many times on my blog - they are always so cute, stylish and excellent quality! Sometimes the downside is the price, they can be expensive. Personally, I find it hard to justify spending over £24 for an outfit that will only fit for a couple of months. So when there's an M&S sale I'm straight onto their website or instore to grab as many bargains as I can get my hands on.

On the way back from our recent holiday to Cornwall we nipped into Cheltenham for a bit of retail therapy. It actually turned out to be a pretty stressful visit, as Isabella was sick all over me and the floor in Primark, screamed down Marks and Spencer's and was sick on me a couple more times! Shopping isn't anything like it used to be. However we did manage to have a quick browse in the sale section, which was pretty big and well stocked - so if you fancy picking any pieces up I'd head to your local M&S asap. I bought all of these things 2 days ago, so hopefully they should still be available in some stores.

Anyway, on to the haul...

SALE SHOPPING: Baby Girl feat. Mothercare, Marks and Spencers, TK Maxx

This year sale shopping was taken to a whole level, I was on a mission to buy as many cute baby clothes as I could possibly justify. Finding out the gender of our baby has meant that clothes shopping is easier, as I know what I'm looking for, and therefore needed some level of control. Baby clothes just pull on my heart strings. I had tried to restrain myself until the sales, which wasn't a complete success but I tried nonetheless! I have fallen in love with so many pieces I picked up in the sale this year and for the first time they aren't even for me! I did most of this sale shopping online on either Christmas Eve or Christmas Day - I knew what I wanted so it wasn't a matter of browsing for a long time. A lot lf these close are for next autumn/winter, as that's the style of clothes that were mostly in the sale. I bought 6-9 months, hoping they will fit her, it's all a bit of a guessing game really.

These discounts end TODAY (Friday 20th May 2014) so I thought I'd share my findings with you lovely people...
