J.Crew Factory: 40-50% Off Outerwear & Accessories (plus 30% off clearance!)

"Thanks!" to many of you, who let us know the following news from this morning.

J.Crew is offering customers 40-50% off select full price outerwear styles and accessories. No code necessary as it is automatically applied.

Plus they are offering an additional 30% off clearance items using promo code YAY30. This offer expires October 19, 2014. The fine print includes:

**30% discount valid on the purchase of clearance items at jcrewfactory.com from October 15, 2014, 12:01am ET through October 19, 2014, 11:59pm ET. Offer not valid in J.Crew or J.Crew Factory stores, at jcrew.com or on phone orders. Offer cannot be applied to previous purchases or the purchase of gift cards and cannot be redeemed for cash. To redeem, enter code YAY30 in the promo code box at checkout. Limit one promotional code per order. Valid in the U.S. and Canada only. Terms of offer are subject to change. Final sale items cannot be returned or exchanged.

When it comes to the outerwear promo, the one I think the Factory Ruffle-Collar Dress Coat ($228.00; item B4106) is beautiful. It reminded a lot of JCAs of both J.Crew's Bella and Sybil Coats. This is high praise which I hope the Factory version lives up to. However it is marked at the same price of $136.50, as it was during the "early access" new arrival promotion last week.

Also, there are a few goodies that are on sale in the clearance section right now...

My top clearance pick? J.Crew Factory's Factory gallop sweatshirt (item A8743; $58.00) is now on sale for $28.99 before the additional 30% off. A great time to buy if you were thinking of buying one!
