Sought & Found: Did you visit J.Crew this {past} 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 stopped by a J.Crew store this past weekend to see what's available (if anything!) in the SALE, or to see some NEW 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 was/ is carrying an additional percent off sale. Thanks in advance!!! :)

  3. Visited store to return a bunch of online orders. Not much to get excited about or use the gift cards on. The sale section was dismal; there is nothing new in the non-sale area. SA had no idea when the January catalog would be available.

    1. Hi shopalot - JC skipped the January catalog last year and I suspect they're doing the same thing this year. Ina mentioned the next big rollout would be later this month, and it will probably be the February catalog that goes along with it.

  4. So I wanted a pair of the plaid Sloan d'orsay flats that sold out online in two days really really bad. The inventory in store last week was showing 3 stores might have a pair but no luck. The store that had a pair in size 8 box was really a size 7. Oh the heartbreak of it all until the sun came out this morning when I had a store check inventory and low and behold someone must have returned one over the weekend. They are mine, mine, mine. So excited I can hardly contain myself. They were on sale and 50% off...Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus! Happy Monday to me. Now might be the time to find stuff with all the weekend returns, just a heads up.

    2. Columbus, Ohio store had a pair in size 7 but they were in a size 8 box. Give them a call and see if they still have them. They might!

    5. Sweet!!! I am thrilled for you!!! Glad I could help a sister out. Hope you are as excited as I am, and I am pretty excited, like almost jumped up and down excited at my desk excited, won't be able to sleep until they get here excited. I know, I need help...

    6. It is very exciting! I knew I should have purchased these shoes when I first saw them, this is sort of like a miracle. Glad this had a happy outcome, unlike my quest for a pair of the Viv Bow flats a few years ago...!

    7. I am both happy for you and jealous of you. I really only want the flutter mini in wool, I bought it in poly this summer (dumb me), but even if it popped back in my size/color now I'm holding out for a sale, or at lease a promo.

      If I have to buy this skirt twice, I at least want a discount!

  6. I didn't visit any stores this past weekend, but I was able to get several price adjustments on items I've purchased over the past couple of weeks from Nordstrom online. I absolutely love that they do that! It really does make shopping there practically risk free, especially since shipping and returns are always free, too. Also off topic, I've shared a few of my favorite images, a couple items on my wishlist, and a bit of what I've been up to lately on my blog today. I'd love for you to stop by if you get the chance: Monday Musings.... :)

  7. The sale section at Copley (Boston) is huge with a broad selection. As usual a fair amount of Collection items (it was hard for me to walk away from one of the leather biker jackets). I went on Saturday to make returns, and bought a pair of Chelsea boots for one of my daughters. Shoes are 50% off, everything else 40%. I recommend calling them if you're on the hunt for something. I was surprised that some of the items that are deeply discounted online are FP in-store.

  8. Hoping there will be another promo soon on non-sale merchandise. Looking to spend a gift card. I would love the Field Mechanic Jacket (women's) but would also like to catch it on sale as it is just under $200! :)

  9. Can anyone tell me about the fit of the Collection Painterly Floral dress? I got one at a pretty good price on pop-back but it has not arrived yet. I'm concerned that I needed to size up (had it been available) though. Any feeckback about fit, etc etc and thoughts about it, please do let me know. Also, I think it came out in the fall, but is it a dress I might be able to wear into spring and summer? Thanks for any help JCAs! :-)
