I feel like we have seen this promotion before... ;)

Most brick & mortar stores were offering an additional 40%, if not 50% off sale. So I am hoping that offer sticks around...

Will you be taking advantage of this promotion? What item are you hoping to pick up? Please share!

  1. I wish madewell had an additional percentage off sale this weekend! some dresses hit sale that I have been coveting, but an extra 30 or 40 percent off would have been nice...

    1. My madewell store had 40% off sale earlier this week.

    2. I think the one near me does also, but the dresses I want are online only, and I don't think my local stores will honor the in-price extra sale percentage for items that they didn't offer in stores from the beginning. so I am stuck playing the online sale percentage waiting game ...

    3. Roxana, you might call and ask them. My local store offered to do that for me on an online only item, but said I would have to be in store to place the order. HTH

  2. I placed an order this morning - tippi sweater in vivid jade, pin dot silk shell, cap sleeve shirttail blouse in papaya and the drapey oxford crepe blouse in mint as well as the Marlow mules in navy! This is on heels of quite a few recent items going back...

  4. In my travels today I visited 2 J Crews- 1 in PA and 1 in NJ and both were offering 50% off of the sale section both of which were quite full, to boot.

  5. I placed two orders ( floral block print tunic in petunia and navy) in 4 tall and ( boat neck tee in navy) small today and received two orders ( slim cargo pant 3 pair in tall). Okay so I love love love the slim cargo pants ( they fit very well in the leg and hip area...but the waist is a bit big. I ordered a size 4 tall in navy and a 6 tall in gray and green( should have orders a size 4 tall for all because the 6 tall is too big, go with the smaller of your two sizes). The crotch area ( sorry couldn't think of better term) is a bit baggy in the size 4 tall and size 6 tall but it is not as noticeable on size 4 tall. These pants are suppose to sit low on the hips but honesty I pulled them up higher so they were almost mid rise without much of a problem. I had a longer top on so it wasn't noticeable. They didn't stretch out much after a days wear ( I wore the size 4 tall today). Okay so even with the two "issues" I still really recommend them and will be trying to get the two size 6 tall exchanged from for a size 4 tall. Also I filled out a buzz feed survey after placing my order and actually got a response. Who knew right. I complained about the inconsistency with regards to the return policy( what exactly can and can't be returned). Below is a copy of what the is the SA had to say:

    Very sorry for the confusion about returns and sale items--glad to try and clear it up a bit. In general, any items bought online can be returned in a store also--as long as they are not washed/worn and not marked as Final Sale. Factory items can only be returned in our Factory stores and jcrew.com items only in a Retail store.

    Sale items ending in .99 can be returned if they are not marked as Final Sale--this would be noticeable either under the item in checkout or on the item page under the description and color choices. Occasionally we make all items ending in that price Final Sale--but it is noted on the landing page for the sale site online. Missed markings and failing to remove the notation can happen though--I apologize in advance for any errors. If you're ever unsure or bought something not realizing it is Final Sale, please reach out so we can clarify or make an exception to allow a return. Always glad to help!

    1. I wish there were a way to print that out (including the FROM line) so that I could carry it around and present it at checkout.

    2. I just purchased a dress from this promo that had a price ending in .99 and I looked EVERYWHERE before I checked out to make sure nothing said Final Sale. I would be super annoyed if I have to return and someone told me it was Final Sale because it ended in .99.

  8. Just a heads up JCA's. I had a gift card....spent over it . returned a item and J Crew wanted to put it back on a gift card ? I told them NO....I spent more than the gift card. I assume other retailors may want to do this....but as far as I am concern it is not legal,....better business bureau would agree . S

  11. Has anyone looked at the linen cargo skirt? It looks really cute online... good reviews but I am wondering if it is really only dry clean. I would love it if it could be washed.

    1. Hi.. I tried it on in store ( Flax color?) after I had ordered it on line (in navy) during the promo. In my reg. size it was tight across the rear but okay in the waist. So if I really had like it I would have to size up.
      The quality is a little sub par for the price but on deeper sale I would think it would be a good buy....It would be nice if you have to dress for work because I found it felt work appropriate but not casual out on the town , shopping etc.. It was too much like a pencil skirt that is a staple to many of us at work

    2. went to store on Robsen ( Vancouver ) its mothers day...
      ....lemonade to sample 50% off sale which is the only way to shop J Crew in Canada (our prices are higher )
      I did purchase to shirts and a cosmetic bag. The SA waived the shipping of one of the tops (my size was available but at a different store) they threw in 20% off purchase of $100 good until Julyish. also a small cotton bag ( like you get with factory jewellery purchases) that had two bath bombs. nice touch J Crew.
