"Thanks!" to so many of you who have reported back that J.Crew is still offering an additional 30% off sale at their brick & mortar (B&M) stores. {Yey!}It is not clear how long this promotion will run in B&M stores, but probably until they clear out the sale merchandise. (To make room for new arrivals.) There are some pros and cons discussed before, but worth mentioning again:
- Pro: A lot of items are on sale in store and not online yet. If an item is on sale online and not in store, the store associate can match it.
- Con: The sales are Final (so no returning once you purchased it).
Will you be checking out the Sale section at your local brick & mortar (B&M) store? Are there any items you are hoping to see or to get?
Thank you for creating this post Alexis, I had something to report from the stores but wasn't sure where to post it.
ReplyDeleteI was at the Fifth Avenue store this afternoon and the store is literally exploding with shoes on sale. If you are looking for shoes try to call them (I tried the metallic Sperries in a 6 but they were really small as I am usually a 7). The other stuff is hit or miss, they aren't incredibly stocked but the solid pencils are in another area of the store so if you are looking for one of those they might have it.
I scored the Gondola striped coat for $175 after discount. I had more or less crossed it from my list because it is more of a statement than something that will get a lot of wear but for that price I couldn't resist (unfortunately it was the only one in the store).
Any sale shoe (esp sandal) recommendations, Ema? As someone whose stores don't carry a lot of shoes, I would love recommendations :) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI bought the patent Audras last week and they are very nice and seem comfortable from walking around the apartment although I didn't break them out yet. I also ordered and returned the Lucca sandals and they got to be the most comfortable sandal ever, I recommend if you like the chunky look. I returned them because the navy isn't really navy but a lighter blue that doesn't go with anything I have. By the way, if anyone is looking for these I returned them to the Soho store, they are a size 7 (fit TTS), they could still be there (they were shipped in a plain brown box that is easily recognizable).
DeleteI tried various sandals on my blog on several occasions. You can search by name in the search box to see the reviews.
DeleteI ordered a second pair of the Malta Midheel Sandals this morning (this time in deep raisin). They look great and are not that high, so they should be perfect to walk in.
Also a fan of the Audras! And Ema - it was 5th&17th not Rock Ctr right?
DeleteYes, 5th and 17th. They must have received shoes from another store because they didn't have nearly as many yesterday when I put the coat on hold. Unless some styles went on sale today but the new ones that I noticed were the leather ballet flats on white (I didn't even know that they existed in white). These are a great deal at $69.99 before discount but I had to make choices ;-).
DeleteThanks for the recommendations :)
DeleteI meant "the only new ones that I notoced were the leather ballet flats in white", sorry for typos.
DeleteEma, are the ballet flats in white a really light nude color or really white? Thanks for the help!
DeleteThey are really white and as I said I had never seen them before. There is another color that to me looked like wild mushroom that is a nude without pink undertones (but they weren't in the sale section so presumably are not on sale). HTH!
DeleteHi, Rose. Have you tried the Maltas on? I couldn't find your review...wondering if they run TTS? Also wondering whether they would look better in the beige or raisin... Thanks for your help.
DeleteThanks, Ema!
DeleteSo I just noticed online that the cotton-silk perfect shirt in raj paisley (#86109)is FINALLY on sale and now I'm on the hunt! My local stores have only small sizes in stock (as does the website) so if any of you lovely ladies happen to see a 12 or 14 in your local store, I would really appreciate any leads. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteSara (cwolf715@aol.com)
The J.Crew in Orlando was still running the extra 30% off as of yesterday, so they are more than likely still running it today. There were three of the Raj paisley maxidresses in size 8, a size 6 purple Lucille dress in scalloped eyelet, numerous Ella dresses in various sizes, a couple of the brompton safari cat clutches and candy stripe clutches, tons of shoes, and cotton pencil skirts (so check there if you are looking for a particular shoe or size/color of pencil skirt).
ReplyDeleteAlso, I have the Promo-priced items lists for both the women and men posted on my blog. The stores usually have most of the same items on promo as the website, and they are eligible for the extra 30% off, but should not be final sale. :)
Women's list here.
Men's list here.
My stores in Portland Oregon are stilling running the extra 30% off. I took a slew off returns in today. Not much new in the sale section EXCEPT Marci patent Wedges (which weren't there last week). I bought the Casablanca Blue, which is navy for $62.99. When I left around 1:00 there was still a size 9 1/2, 9, maybe an 7 and 8. Anyway about 4-5 pairs. If you're looking for them call 503-624-6386. I NEVER wear heels, but I felt comfortable and stable in these. And LOVE the color. Also I took my white Schoolboy Linen Blazer that I just bought at FP in for a price adjustment. Turns out only the Cerice color was $99.99 less 30% in the stores. But all the colors hit sale today online for $129.99, so my store adjusted my FP blazer to $129.99 then gave me the 30% in store discount! That's what I call super service! Tomorrow I'm visiting the Bridgeport store to see if any other goodies have showed up.
ReplyDeleteA little OT, but I had to laugh this morning, the girl ahead of me on line sweetly told the SA "I have a few returns, ok?" and proceeded to empty 2 shopping bags and a large plastic trash bag. Fortunately she was very well organized and had all her paperwork. I bet I've read her posts here!
ReplyDeleteI was returning, too, WWFIFY Found Something For Me, all right, just not what I'd asked for. Kind SA placed the request again. Meanwhile I called a random store or two, had a few nice chats, and woo-HOO found my item! I think. Because a little while ago I got an email from Viscount WWFIFY in which he tendered his regrets that WWFIFY searched all over but couldn't find it. Meanwhile I wait to see if any of my phone calls will bring me a nice surprise, and if they do, the WWFIFY guys will get a little note from me.
Has anyone saw the tangier orange biennial satchel in store? How is the color IRL? Is it $239 like on the website? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteSeen not saw
DeleteIf it is not on sale in the store, they will honour the website price if you mention it to them.
DeleteAre the Rory strappy sandals on sale in store?
ReplyDeleteCan anyone review the size and quality of them ?
Sorry to be OT but the Crew was just an answer on Jeopardy. Got a good giggle from that!
ReplyDeleteCheesy! You're back! Long time...
DeleteWhat was the statement that led to the question "what is j. crew?"
I actually saw that on Jeopardy last night too CheesyGoodness! :)
DeleteDina, the question was something like, "This retailer has a line called Crewcuts." :)
I think it's a good statement about JC's prominence in recent years that they were only a $200 answer.
DeleteHi dinag! I've been only taking the occasional small hit of the crewlade for awhile, staying off the blogs keeps my wallet better contained but I still love lurking a bit and seeing your always-awesomeness!
I went to my local b&m today and thankfully someone returned a few sale items in my size!! :) I picked them up AND asked the sales associate about the Tiered dot tank that just went on sale. She checked and gave it to me for the sale price + 30% off...woohoo! I hate to ask because the SA's at my store are just not friendly...I'm lucky if they would have priced matched only!
ReplyDeleteThat's great. Was it the tiered dot tank in navy? Or another color. Only navy is on sale online right now and I'm trying to wait patiently for other colors!
DeleteIt was the tiered dot tank in navy. None of the colors were on sale but they honored the online price. :) I'm hoping the other colors go on sale too!!
DeleteNbv
ReplyDelete30% sale still on in Stanford, CA. The golden burgundy no. 2 pencil was marked down to $49.99—as you guys have noted elsewhere, this hit the sale racks fast—and even though they didn't have it in my size (only 00, 8, and 10 left in store), a lovely SA got the guy on the red phone to honor both the markdown and the additional 30%. So: $37.96 after tax. To quote the guy on the phone, "That's a pretty good deal." And by some stroke of luck it didn't count as final sale: I assume that was an accident, but maybe that's typical?
ReplyDeletePopped in to my store...some linen tippis have gone lower. The yellow (sun?) and dark purple were 29.99 pre-30%. I tried the linen stripe tippi for the first time and 'got the feeling.' even tho it wasn't super flattering on me (49.99 before %). They had the gold Audras, which I hadn't seen--super cute, but my feet slid around too much in them. Looked like the safari cat capris had taken another cut--maybe 29.99 pre-discount.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone has seen the Schoolboy Linen blazer in navy, size 4, (item 76756) can you put it on hold for me and let me know?? I saw it go on sale this morning, and hesitated because I thought an additional 30% off might be just around the corner (I have been buying quite a bit these past couple of weeks, and my husband has started telling me to slow down), and typical luck, it sold out early this afternoon!! Waah!! I called my PS and she says the navy, size 4 is sold out from the stores, but I'm hoping against hope that there's been a return somewhere....
ReplyDeleteAnyways, if anyone sees it, let me know ASAP!!! My email is stylishchemist at gmail dot com
The 30% off is still going in the DC area as of today. An item that I think is definitely worth getting if you can find them in your store (I don't think I've seen them in mine) is the classic mini in double-serge cotton (item 88345), on promo for $79.50. On the last day of the online sale, I caved and got this skirt in both the bright spearmint and the brilliant blue, and they are both gorgeous, especially the mint. I think it runs a bit small -- I used to be consistently a 0/2P in JC skirts, but this year I have moved solidly into 2/4P. I think (hope!) it is only partly me, and partly is because sizing has become more realistic. I ordered these in a 2, and they fit perfectly, but as AudreyBella has noted in her review, this skirt sits at the waist, so even though it is a longer mini at 17.5", it starts higher and ends higher. I'd rather have it sit lower and end just an inch or two above my knees so I am reordering both in size 4 (I'm only 5'2" and the 2s end mid-thigh on me). In case any of you don't already know this, JC is very consistent about honoring your previous lower price when you do an exchange.
ReplyDeleteAnother couple of quick reviews: I know I'm late to the game on this one, but the factory printed pencil skirt (item 37532) in jade (casbah print) is very very pretty and TTS. The factory embroidered pencil skirt (item 77636) in faded black sand is also so very pretty, much prettier than I remembered when this print was in the retail versions. (I remember and did not like the dress, cannot remember if it came in a skirt?) If there is another promo, I would definitely recommend both of these.
My store was doing new markdowns n I was able to snag the Lace placket tee and ring-around eyelet top on sale plus 30% off plus educator 15% off.
ReplyDeleteWhat store was that? I really want blue ring around eyelet top! What was the sale price??
DeleteOld Orchard in Skokie, IL. The sale price is $39.99 before the extra 30% off.
DeleteNorthbrook IL has one ring around eyelet in an XS in a color similar to Casablanca Blue and several in Navy.
DeleteHow much is the lace placket tee? Thanks!
Delete$29.99 before the discount.
DeleteI will definitely stop in tomorrow to see if any of my wishlist items have new markdowns. My last bargain buys were the Feather Paisley popover - just $17.49 after the 30% discount, and the Drea patent peep-toes in black @$41.99.
ReplyDeleteMy PS just ordered me Café capri in Warm Jade at
ReplyDelete$20.99 and the Café capri in safari cat for $24.49. I got the 30% off. Woo-hoo!
Does anyone know how much the RAINDROP LACE TOP (item no 68394) is in stores right now? I could have sworn I saw it on clearance last month at Valley Fair in SJ....
ReplyDeletekmo - The raindrop lace top was $69.99 in-store as of 5/2. My store sold out at fp, so I can't confirm if both colors were marked down. There have been mixed reports. They can ring the style# in the register and it should show them the current selling price.
DeleteThanks! that's exactly what I needed to know.
DeleteWhen I purchased mine a little over a week ago I was told only neon azalea was on sale. Hopefully that'll change :)
DeleteAlexis, thanks so much for the link love!
ReplyDeleteI had a lot of difficulties with Blogger on Wed A.M. and when the post published, it wasn't complete. I've updated the list and hopefully noted most of the new cuts. They're at the top of the post. I was in-store and didn't see any new cuts. Neither did Ema. A SA said she thinks the 30% will continue for a bit to clear merch out. The first fall rollout is schedule for 7/25. In the first couple of weeks in August, spring/summer merch gets shipped back to the warehouse. So we'll be seeing lots of popbacks online at that time.
There was a significant update this morning with some new markdowns. The promo-priced items were switched-up again too, so I've updated both the women's and men's Promo-priced items lists.
ReplyDeleteWomen's list here.
Men's list here. :)
I'm looking for a size 2 in the feather paisley pencil skirt. I have the o and want to size up. WWFI said it wasn't in store- is this true????? If anyone sees one let me know please:). Karenturk1@gmail
ReplyDeleteI found one! So much for customer service-lol!
DeleteI would love to find these items in a store together to avoid shipping costs (my nearest store is 2.5 hours away :/ )
ReplyDeleteViv bow flats 9 9.5 10
Ultra eyelet shell white size 0 or 2
Silk anchor blouse size 2
Tessa top in yellow size 0
The jumbo brûlée necklace
Chambray top 0 2
Silk stripe bow cami 0 2
If anyone sees more than one of these items please let me know so I can place a Phone order :)
Also, has anyOne seen the cece leather flats In a brown color marked down? Or the raindrop lace top in navy? I ordered a size 2 in the neon azalea last week and was told that was the only color on sale but I'm hoping the navy will be marked down too. FYI-I'm normally a size 0/2 in jcrew tops and the 2 is huge on me, very unflattering and boxy. I recommend sizing down in it!
Thanks!
Looking for the garden floral pencils skirt in size 12 if anyone sees it at their store! TIA!
ReplyDeletemackenzie_007 at yahoo dot com
I'm looking for the sovereign paisley in a 2 or 4 and the Lucille Eyelet (purple) in a 6!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
injanuity at gmail dot com
injanuity: I just emailed you about the eyelet Lucille dress. :)
DeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteDo you think there will be another online promo code soon? The nearest J.Crew store is a 3 hour drive away from my house, so I would prefer to purchase online.
I am interested in a no.2 pencil skirt, a scoopneck anchors blouse, a Saint James shirt, and maybe a funnel neck sweater. My dilemma thus far is what color to pick for the pencil skirt! Green, light rose, vibrant purple and neon pink all look good to me!
About the Saint James shirt, I am interested in the navy-pink. Has anyone seen it in person? Is the pink more vibrant than the online picture? Does it fit TTS?
Thank you!
marypopps: Final Sale will more than likely be back any day now, (since it was brought back last year on June 30th) so unless there is an extra % off this weekend, the next online promo will probably be accompanied by Final Sale, unfortunately. If you are wanting to try out the items with the option to return, it would be best to do so before Final Sale comes back.
DeleteThe navy/pink Saint James tee is pretty true to the online photo, the pink is fairly subdued. I know there was a discussion on here a few months ago about those tees, a few of us were quite disappointed with the fit--overly boxy with very wide sleeves. I found it to be extremely unflattering on me. I believe DaniBP put up a photo on her blog. HTH!
DeleteI am a late convert to the cafe capri. Can anyone who loves the cafe capri offer any advice on the toothpick or matchstick jean? Does it fit similarly?
ReplyDeleteAnyone who loves the cafe capri have a favorite jean they would recommend (j crew or non-j crew)?
30% still going at my store today with new markdowns! Porcelain paisley dress 140, ram bracelet $50, thin bangles $10, anchor bracelet $35, purple Minnie $69 I think.
ReplyDeleteWhich ram bracelet? Thx!! :)
DeleteBlack and white
DeleteHm, I was doing my own WWFIFY and called a few stores and one told me it was still FP!
DeleteDefinitely call the Tyson's VA store -- there were LOTS.
Deletefound it at my b&m - yay!!!
DeleteGot my ram and anchor bracelets today. SO happy!Not happy paying $199 fro porcelain dress and it's now $139. No adjustments on FS as you know, sigh...
DeleteIf you're ram curious, the product page is here (74625)

ReplyDeleteHas anyone seen the Martina patent wedges in either Casablanca Blue or Bronzed Clay size 9?
ReplyDeleteCS said that they are sold out nationwide, but I refuse to believe it! :)
Thanks in advance!!
LLStand - The shoe was released last Aug or so. I don't recall seeing the casablanca blue wedges in-store, so they might have been retail only. Don't quote me. As far as the bronzed clay, the price went down as far back as April and at least one 30% off happened in-store before the current one. Hope that makes you feel better about the stock info you were given.
DeleteJust came back from the Schaumburg, IL store in Woodfield Mall and got the Scrolled Link Bracelet for $39.99 (last one) and the Ribbon Stripe Boatneck Tee for $29.99 before extra 30% off.
ReplyDeleteat the risk of appearing a shopaholic -- ;) -- also on sale is the tillary purse in mint -- yum! The Tyson Virginia store had one left (after I picked up one)! Also lots of giraffe and ram cuff bracelets for $50, the smaller brulee necklace for I think around $55, but only in the orange, which I think is the least pretty color. The ram NECKLACE is also on sale, altho I did not check the price as the SAs were in the process of marking down and I did not want to interrupt for a piece I was not intending to buy... Also the straw brompton clutch for $69. All prices listed here are PRE 30%.
ReplyDeleteJust to clarify, which necklace? The one with two different chains not the beaded one, right? And is the sale giraffe bracelet the enameled giraffe bangle?
DeleteThanks :)
Actually, I'm quite sure it was the new beaded ram necklace. I know it was navy... And yes, the enameled giraffe bangle. The store had both color ways, but more of the newer white one (which I like better, personally).
DeleteThank you :)
DeleteCaribbean tweed pencil was marked down again - 34.99 after discount. Jackie in warm jade was 13.99
ReplyDeleteJackie cardigans in creamy peach & deep peri also ring up $13.99 (after 30% discount). My Jackie collection keeps growing!!
DeleteHas anyone seen the stripe bow cami, in a size 0 (in neon coral), anywhere? If so, I would love to know which store. Thanks much! :)
ReplyDeleteLeah, if you can get into a retail store that has any size of this item, you can use the red phone to get the size 0 at the selling price in the store. It looks like 0 is one of the few sizes left online.
DeleteWondering if anyone has seen the short-sleeve sweatshirt (82342) marked down? Tried it on and liked it a lot, just didn't $59.50 "love" it, if you know what I mean.
ReplyDeleteI posted some reviews from 30% off sale including jardin maxi, red Tessa, Lucille dress, linen bow shorts plus couple of newer non sale items HERE
ReplyDeleteI can't make it to a store until tomorrow...here's hoping 30% off lasts until then. Thanks for all the reviews and info.
ReplyDeleteMisty Lynn - I think the 30% will be in effect thru the weekend. Just guessing, but the SAs seem to think it will continue to make room for the fall stuff coming in a few weeks.
DeleteAudrey- I couldn't reply to your post, i'm just curious how much the Tillary in mint was on sale for?? Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteYes, as Nicole said, it was $69.99. After 30%, $49.
DeleteSaw 2 mint tillarys at the houston galleria mall for 69, before the 30% off. HTH
ReplyDeleteslightly OT but when I made sure to have my teacher's discount added to my purchase, I saw on a piece of paper by the register next to the discount barcode:
ReplyDelete$60 off for top customers with appointment
...anyone know if that was an email sent out?
Thanks Gigi! (Reply isn't working for me)
ReplyDeleteI'll call first since it's an hour from my house and I'll have my daughters with me.
Went to my B&M tonight. The sale section is much more picked over than last week and my store doesn't carry most of the items that were marked down this week.
ReplyDeleteThat said, I got some incredible deals. It turns out that the neon peach Tessellate necklace that I got today is now on sale for 34.99 after the 30% so they gave me a price adjustment (would love to know if the green is on sale too).
There was also one lone hacking jacket in dbl serge (tipped one - sorry having trouble backing up on my phone) which I got for $107.
Found a single pair of black cafe trousers in my size for 13.99.
Also, they were willing to match the online price for the navy tiered dot tank so that was 34.99 after 30% off.
Finally, they priced adjusted my seville safari cat espadrilles down to 41.99.
Cate O-did your store have any of the peach Tessellate necklaces left? If so I'd love to know what store. Thanks so much!
DeleteI didn't get the peach tessellate at my local store, it was a WWFIFY that came from Chestnut Hill, MA. The phone number on the receipt is 617-332-0122. Good luck!
DeleteThe store in Las Vegas had the ring-around-eyelet top in the casablance blue. I am pretty sure they were the smaller sizes. Oh, and the Raindrop lace top in navy is not yet on sale.
ReplyDeleteAnyone been to the Burlington Vermont J.crew store? I wear XS in tops and otherwise size 2 or 4.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone has been, is there anything good left in these sizes in Burlington?
