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 WINTER sale, or to see some new SPRING
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!
I will be making some returns and exchanges but that's all for now.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone finds a pair of Lula glitter flats in size 8.5, perferably silver during their shopping travels, please email me at n.gentilini@yahoo.com! Thank you!
I may stop by to make a return and check out the sale section if I get the chance.
ReplyDeleteAlso, for those interested, there are a few new Promo-priced items again this morning, as well as several new markdowns, including the Mini Edie purse in Python and Cropped Matchstick jean in Indigo Floral. They are all noted at the top of this post.
I have a bunch of coupons not going to use:
ReplyDeleteMadewell - $25 off $75 exp 3/31: SPJES9879
Jcrew Factory - 20% off $125 exp 3/31: FPQYBG65B, FFWHMUCTY, FPQ7EDGC2, FFWJX9EHH
Enjoy!!!!
No Easter Weekend. Leaving for a week long trip. Must finish getting ready today. I haven't even had time to try on my items that came yesterday! Will have to wait:) All I did was grab the one item I need for the trip out of the box!
ReplyDeleteI caved and ordered the neon violet Camille dress Tuesday night, so if it ever ships, I'm crossing my fingers that I *don't* have to make a return... but I may go anyways for some more retail therapy. Would like to try on some of their sandals.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone spots the retail boyfriend fatigue jacket in a medium will you let me know? I'm hoping to find this before the sale ends (it's backordered right now until July). erikahoenke@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI so wish that there was a Factory store near me (esp with the 50% off sale). I've had amazing luck with them lately:
- the Sylvia wedges are perfect (I wore them here); almost an exact version of the retail Martina wedges in bronzed clay
- J. Crew Factory ponte pants (I wore them here with the chiffon dot top): I've never tried the retail Pixies, but I love the Factory ponte pants; they are incredibly slimming and feel very well made.
- I just bought the Factory linen dot sweater and version of the Gondola stripe top and highly recommend both!
just saw one boyfriend fatigue jacket in a medium and a few in large at South Coast Plaza (Costa Mesa, CA) today.
DeleteAll stores should be having an additional 30% off sale items now AND 25% off ladies full price apparel.
ReplyDeleteAlso, wanted to let you ladies know that the Perfect Shirt in citrus is now available in stores! It is the cutest thing and is made of a heavenly blend of cotton and silk voile. I posted it here http://www.sincerelysammie.com/
Happy shopping!
Thanks for posting that - I love how you've paired it with the clover tweed skirt! It looks great!
DeleteYou are too cute and love your styling.
DeleteReviews of the citrus print shirt and the striped boyshirt on my blog here.
ReplyDeleteJust had a look and I love them both on you! The citrus print is so cute!
DeleteGood buys!
Stopped by yesterday to return some new arrivals that didn't work out and left with the Transluscent stone necklace in the mint color that my VPS saved for me. She also matched the price with the online promo. I love her. She is so warm and inviting and like me is a constant sale shopper. We're also the same size, so she loves when I make returns.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, back on point, my store's sale section seems to have not changed in the past few weeks. Same old stuff with the 30% off. Seeming randon full price items had 25% off signage on them but if something doesn't have an extra 25% off just ask them to match the online price. I doubt that they'd want to loose a sale and some associates don't even know about it.
Have they extended the sale again? It nows says through 03/31/13 on the website.
DeleteD*ska - yes, now thru Sat, 3/31. Madewell's 25% off of $125+ was extended thru 4/2.
DeleteTo All - I think the J Crew store promo is now 25% off regular price items. 30% off sale items, making them final sale. Cardholders should request the 30% off online price match for using their card. If you get denied an online price match, I would ask a mgr. I heard someone get denied yesterday by an employee who was telling everyone 'no.' To everything. I don't know where they found her.
Going South this weekend, so definitely dropping by the store.
ReplyDeleteSorry, OT, but has anyone tried the high-waist swim briefs before? I'm thinking about trying them out but not sure how high up they will go on my belly. In the product shot it looks like exactly where I'd want it to hit me, but OFF the model, they look a little lower. Also, do they run pretty tts?
ReplyDeleteI've tried them! They hit my stomach right where they do in the picture (for reference, I'm 5'7" and got the medium). They fit true to size and are pretty slimming, but I felt kind of granny-ish in them so I returned them...I don't know why since they definitely have a cool retro feel, I think I just am not used to swim briefs with so much fabric.
DeleteThanks, Erika! That is very helpful :)
DeleteDid stop by briefly, sale section huge at Cherry Creek, CO store, extra 30% off sale prices. But it was lots of sweaters, nothing I needed. The June Meadow shirt was marked $99.99 still, they did have the blazer though which was also $99,99 cheaper than online. Sorry did not check sizes. The promo for 25% off was going on all women's full priced items.
ReplyDelete50% off the entire J.Crew factory store with this printable coupon.. Saturday only! :)

Have any of you ladies tried on or seen the Bennet Striped Cropped Chino in person? I'm attracted to those crazy striped pants for some reason, but having some trouble committing given the large price tag for chino. I'd love your feedback. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI tried them and they were very unflattering on me. Even the SA advised me against them. Disappointing because I really liked them in theory! They fit TTS but the stripes just didn't work; they should have put the wide stripes at the bottom and the thin stripes at the top.
DeleteOT but there is one size 4 scroll print skirt on sale for 109.99 online right now. It does NOT show up in the sale section and neither does the clover tweed pencil skirt in green in many sizes.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know how much the color fleck popover is in store right now? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteit was 59.99 and i got 30% off and 15% off so paid about $35
DeleteThank you!
Deletei had to do some returns. got the fleck popover for $35, like i said above, and the pink stripe popover for $29. they still had a ton of pink ones left. not too much else that was new. they did let me use my student discount on top of the sales.
ReplyDeleteI'll be posting reviews soon for the amie maxidress in stripe, which is gorgeous and reasonable at $60. also tried on the dree dress in stripe, review coming. i would size up one.
Where did you find your pink popover at?
DeleteAt Mayfair mall in Milwaukee/Wauwatosa
DeleteHuh I went to mine and the pink was still full price I even had them ring it up
DeleteLaura - There is a pink stripe oxford popover that was $59.99 before any discounts last time I saw it a couple weeks ago. The pink cotton silk popover is still regular price.
DeleteHey does anyone know if the in store promo is just for women's full priced items? Also if anyone uses sovereign bank I just noticed they have 10% cash back for online j crew purchases.
ReplyDeleteI swung by the Soho and 5th Ave stores today, both of which seemed to be doing brisk business. I ended up caving on the cardholder promotion. I got the Daisy Lace Mini in red and the Carrie Cami in pale citrus. Not too bad with 30% off.
ReplyDeleteA little OT, but the April Style guide is up on the US site!
ReplyDeleteI went to the factory at Bergen Town Center and it was a zoo. The line to check out snaked around the entire store. I tried on two things and passed on both - not worth waiting in line for.
ReplyDeleteI agree --- there was no item worth waiting that line. And I arrived at 11 am (an hour after the mall opened!)
DeleteSale update for Sun am was 1175+. Wild popbacks I.e. from last year, etc... A lot of spring/summer items. From what I saw, not many winter coats or blazer, if you've been on the lookout.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up! I ended up scoring a couple of pop backs that were not final sale -- city mini in black ($35), schoolboy blazer in camel ($69), and oversize merino pocket sweater in grey ($62). I used the card member discount. I've been looking for that oversize merino sweater in grey for a while. It's such an easy, comfortable piece and will transition well for early spring. I wear my navy schoolboy from 4 years ago to death, and was just thinking that I should invest in another color. I'm late to the city mini game, but at 5'2" it's such a flattering length. It's wool, so won't work for summer, but should work for early spring without tights. I got a red one on a recent pop back and wear it so much that my husband comments that people are going to notice, since its an obvious piece. I will become "the girl in the red skirt."
DeleteYes, I noticed that too. Nothing I wanted though;( Nice for there to be such a big update on the last day of the sale though.
DeleteThank you for the notice! I was able to get the collection cashmere boyfriend sweater in hthr mint...I have been trying to purchase for a while and even did a WWFIFY with no success. So excited to purchase this... :)
DeleteAnyone know if CS gives accurate measurements for individual items or do they just quote the size chart that's online? I had to size up in regular sizing when I tried on the clover tweed skirt, and though I would have preferred purchasing in petites, final sale on something I haven't tried steered me away.
ReplyDeleteMuncher, my experience has been that they give very detailed sizing info. I did a chat about the Tilda rhinestone in petite and was given measurements for all the sizes I requested. Plus, if you are purchasing something final sale in petite that you have not tried on because they don't carry in stores. Ask them to note against that order and item that you can return. I did that yesterday for a petite skirt on final sale. HTH
DeleteThe Bellevue Square store had 25% off women's wear and 30% off sale items.
ReplyDeleteThought I was safe from falling into the 'but it's such a great price' trap. But my willpower was no where to be seen.
ReplyDeleteScored another pair of Ludlows; this time in bird's eye English wool in charcoal. Yeah more charcoal, can a guy have enough of this colour? But at less than half off they are a steal of a deal. With luck I won't wear them till fall '13, but with this weather who knows.
Local J crew store was closed in Los Gatos and I assume in Valley Fair too (as the mall itself was closed !) However there is a new promo starting April 1st, IN STORES & ONLINE: EXTRA 30% OFF FINAL SALE ITEMS WITH CODE SUNSHINE. Enjoy ;)
ReplyDeleteMiramar, I cursed thinking that 30% was far better than my 25%, but then I added in free shipping and realized that the LOVEJCREW was better.
DeleteAnd since I seem to have scored the last pair in my size it doesn't really matter.
