Seek & Find: Will you visit J.Crew this Weekend?

This is the weekly "sale watch" post, to help each other find sale items at our various local J.Crew stores. ;)

If you are stopping by a J.Crew store this weekend to see what's available (if anything!) in the FALL sale, or to see some new FALL/WINTER arrivals {sigh!} in person, maybe you might be willing to share that with us in this post. In particular, if you could share with us a few of the noteworthy items that are available, at what prices, and potential sizes the store is carrying (as well as the store location)- that would be fantastic!

Also, please let us know if your local store is carrying an additional percent off sale. Thanks in advance!!! :)

P.S. I noticed that many of you have already been reporting sale items (and in which stores) in other posts which by the way "thank you!" :) I really appreciate how helpful we are for each other!

  1. 30% off in stores and online, plus free shipping (looks like no minimum) with code CHEER! This is definitely the best one yet.

  2. Darn, Caitlin, you beat me! =) I just ordered the Wintress Puffer. I wanted the grey one but only black and shadow are left.

  3. Wow! Another sale... what a surprise!

  4. Oh, yes, I will be visiting the JC store this weekend. Hopefully the in-store sale will still be on.

  5. Ahhhh! Yes, I'll definitely be stopping by j.crew tomorrow.

    I wanted to grab the mini felted wool in one of the greys, but now all they've got in my size is the violet! So sad. I hope they'll have one at the store nearby, or maybe they'll be able to find me one...

    Definitely regretting waiting for the skirt to go on sale. Aghh.

  6. Someone said on other post "No2 pencil skirt all colors (except in-store-only violet) $79"

    Does anyone know if this is for wool ones?

    ReplyDelete
  7. jo - I don't believe the double-serge wool skirts are on sale. I know for a fact the viridian green one is not as I had it checked.

  8. Natasha top & new b&m necklace in this post.

    Pathos...hope you see this...you were asking about b&m jewelry.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Gigi-thank you! Yes, I'm stalking jewelry right now, especially "choker" style. (That's a horrible adjective for a necklace now that I think of it.) Keep the info coming via stores...I can't get up to Chicago until after Christmas :>

  10. @The American Observer-
    The grey wintress puffer is in the sale section :>

    ReplyDelete
  11. I have to stop in to make a return and will probably take a look around. Prices seem to be a lot better in stores.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I'll be stopping in to stalk Pencil Skirts on sale.

    Sale jewelry seems to be hit or miss ... prices are inconsistent in the B&Ms I have visited ... but you can catch a great deal if you look around. It's old news, I know, but I think the Lulu Frost bangles are gorgeous and I've gotten so many compliments on my navy ones. I just got the tortoise one for 39.99 and also the Crystal Brulee Necklace (backordered online) for $51.

  13. Gigi and Jo, I was the one who reported double serge wool skirts being on sale after Ema. I even remember on of the JCAs getting the skirt in her size for the sale price from MAdison Ave store. When I was in the store (Hackensack, NJ) they only have violet that was not on sale. The SA did not know anything about the sale but I mentioned that I read it online and she checked and confirmed that they were in fact on sale in other stores and she said that they will price match it. I wasn't really interested since I already got the color I wanted but I was mainly checking for this blog. She definitely said red, green, yellow, teal and gray are on sale but not the violet. And interestingly that's the only color they had left when I remember maybe a week ago they had plenty in all colors. My guess is that did go on sale and quickly sold out. Not sure that it applies to all stores but they seem to be much more willing to accommodate than they used to.

  14. I completed my returns last Friday - over $500! I'm afraid to calculate how much I spent on the items I kept, but I know I don't need anything else, even with the wonderful promos lately.

  16. 30% everything in the store today, glad I didn't buy anything on Wednesday when it was FS. Today somethings were marked down more as well. No FS on sale items.
    very sneaky

    Got the leopard Iphone case I have been lusting for at 30 off

    Hoping no-one bought anything on FS only to go back today and see it markdown more

    Have a good weekend everyone

  17. Totally going to get a necklace I've been eyeing that isn't online... it has some cute charms on it. And hoping they still have some double serge skirts although I doubt they will!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Jo, I confirm what ajc said, that the bright violet double-serge is not on sale but the other colored ones are (teal, spice gold and bright flame for sure, I don't know about the other ones because they were sold-out of them or catalog only).

    ReplyDelete
  19. @ ajc do you shop at the Hackensack store alot, so do I

    ReplyDelete
  20. @Kate, yes, either Hackensack or Paramus. We have probably passed by each other few times, lol.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Ema and ajc,
    Hmmmm I called 5th ave this morning and the SA told me that it is $120!! Very strange. Maybe it depends on the location... But I am petite and wanted to ask them to use red phone to prie match. Hopefully they can do this.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Ema,
    Can you tell me which store you confirmed with? I am calling the store again and probably need to tell them which store have them on sale.

    ReplyDelete
  23. It may be that the petite sizes are not marked down and only regular

    ReplyDelete
  24. Simplydreaming,
    I used the item number of regular size to check the price since the stores do not carry any petite.

  25. @ ajc

    I tend to stay away from Garden State, unless I make a plan to get there first thing, but I do like the JC store there,

    Riverside Sq is one of my fave places to go around here, have you checked out the factory store at Bergen Towne Center?, fun to look but I think the prices are high

    ReplyDelete
  26. kate, does that factory store have a lot of stock?

    ReplyDelete
  27. jo, sorry for the late reply. Rockefeller Center had the spice gold one and the Collection store on Madison Avenue the other ones. I got the teal one for $55 two days ago.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Ema,
    Thank you! I got spicy gold at the store price plus 30% off. I wanted to get bright blue too, but that was not on sale. Now reading your comment, I regret that I did not contact Madison store for the blue one. Maybe it was on sale there.

    ReplyDelete
  29. @ mommydearest
    Bergen TowneCTR had a lot of stock last time I was there about 3 weeks ago. They are a new store so its all new stuff, have you been there?.

    but I think for an outlet too expensive, ie: womens plaid shirts priced at 60 with 30% off,IIRC, still too high. But its nice to have an JC outlet close to home instead of Woodbury

    lots of other good shopping there as well

  30. I could be enticed into fighting the crowds at my local B&M today if that awesome jewelry promo is still in effect (25% plus 30%).

    Yesterday my husband went in to look for a few things for himself and I asked him if he'd see if they had the black drapey sequin tank in stock. They had it on sale plus the additional 30%. Wore it last night with my tartan perfect shirt and some jeans...love!

    ReplyDelete
  31. I posted this already elsewhere, but it seems appropriate to post here too....

    My store has 30% off EVERYTHING. I overheard the manager saying to the staff that it cannot be combined with any other discount, including the student discount.

    I went in to buy a present but ended up getting things for myself. I found a fabulous red belt for $14, a candle for $7, and the acorn Flair Skirt for $35 after discount. The Flair is still $108 online!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Also they had tons of earmuffs in all colors for $29.99, or $21 after discount.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Just got back from a quick run to my B&M. I was relieved that there wasn't anything there I had to have. I probably would have bit if they'd had a Boulevard trench in my size but alas I only saw a couple size 00's and one size 12 in saddle. (This was Corte Madera if any of you are looking for that size)

    Overall, looked pretty picked over; even the Crewcuts had nothing for my 8 year old. We have a holiday party tonight and I would have loved to find a new button down shirt for him but there was nothing in his size (only very large or very small).

    I think Jewelry would have been a good deal but I didn't see anything I really needed or wanted.

  34. Ema, thanks for the specific info. I had no luck on my end. My in-store assoc said that customer service called NY and the skirts were still regular price. I felt like I was being told that the customer service rep called corporate to verify and were told they're fp. I wish I'd been able to hear the conversation. Of course I do not want to keep waiting for my skirts on waitlist and can get them now and on sale, that would be preferred. I called the NY store myself, but no luck. Again, thanks for the specifics.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Gigi, what color are you looking for? I haven't seen the viridian green but I double checked the bright flame yesterday and it was on sale (with the sale price on the tag). Specifically I saw a 00 and two big sizes (like a 12 and a 10, but don't quote me on these) but they might have more in the back.
    If you want to call them the telephone number is 212-249-3869
    jo, for your peace of mind Madison Avenue (Collection) never had the bright blue one. I actually never seen it in store, I think it is online only (like the neon azalea).

    Now, long shot but if someone sees a Blythe in the etravagant green color in a 0 or 00 could you PLEASE put it on hold for me and/or let me know which store. Thank you so much!

    ReplyDelete
  36. Ema, you don't know my sizes by now? *lol* I am looking for a 4 in vibrant flame & viridian green. I'm on the waitlist for both since Nov. I'll get them eventually, I hope. I though about canx the viridian green yesterday and then bumped into Karla's pic. The chambray would look great w/the green skirt. If you end up seeing them...lemme know.

    haven't seen that blouse but you could try the Garden State Plaza store in Paramus, NJ. It's a concept store and gets a lot of stuff

    ReplyDelete
  38. If anyone sees Maisie silk watercolor dress (the multi, not the abstract purple) in 00 or 0, the City Mini in Fern Heather 00,0 or XXS, XS or the tissue turtle in Mosaic Blue (XXS or XS) please let me know. sweetjt at gmail.com Thanks so much!!!
