Extra 30% to 50% Off Sale Styles at J.Crew

"Thanks!" to  many of you, including Melissa@AllThingsSimplified (in this post), as well as Roxana Hadadi (in this post), who shared the following email & promotion from J.Crew.

J.Crew is offering an additional 30% to 50% off Final Sale with promo code SHOPSALE. This offer expires August 19, 2014. The fine print includes:

*IN STORES: 30% off final sale items. ONLINE: 30% off final sale items and 50% off select final sale items. Offer valid on the purchase of final sale items in J.Crew stores and at jcrew.com from August 15, 2014, 12:01am ET through August 19, 2014, 11:59pm ET. 50% discount only valid on items listed in the "50% Off Select Sale Styles" assortment at jcrew.com. Offer not valid in Liquor Store or Ludlow Shops; in 769 Madison Avenue, Bloor Street or J.Crew Factory stores; at jcrewfactory.com; or on phone orders. Offer cannot be applied to previous purchases and cannot be redeemed for cash or used in combination with any other offer. In-store discount automatically taken at the register. To redeem online, enter code SHOPSALE in the promo code box at checkout. Limit one promotional code per order. Offer valid in the U.S. and Canada only. Terms of offer are subject to change. Final sale items cannot be returned or exchanged.. 

Brick & mortar stores are also running an additional percent off Sale (ranging from 25-30% depending on the store). I am assuming that they will all offer 30% off their Sale now. 

Honestly, I am not surprised that J.Crew is running another percent off sale promotion. They need to move the merchandise! (I was surprised when they took it away for the last promo!)

Also, double check to see which items are marked Final Sale. There were lots of items in my cart yesterday that were not showing up as Final Sale, and today they are. Blah. However, there are still a few items that are not final sale.

Will you be taking advantage of this promotion? Are B&M stores offering 30% off too? Please share!

Seek & Find: Will you visit J.Crew this 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 stopping by a J.Crew store this 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 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!

J.Crew Final Sale {nice update}

"Thanks!" to  many of you, including TeriLynn13 (in this post), who let us know that J.Crew has a really nice update to their Sale section online (click here) this morning. Lots of merchandise for everyone (2050+ for Women and 760+ for Men). Surprising that there is no additional percent off considering the abundance of merchandise. Maybe we can expect to see one soon?

It is worth noting that a lot of new items made it to sale. Also, some items are Final Sale and some are not (even those ending in $0.99). Just double check the item or checkout page to see if the item you are interested is included in Final Sale.

Lastly, several brick & mortar (B&M) stores are running an additional 25 to 30% off their Sale. (Not sure if it is "Final" in stores...) I was told that stores sent back their old sale merchandise and that the sale items in stores are more current (so that is why there is no additional 50% off). Many stores will price match the online sale price (before additional discount). It might be worth a stop to look around.

Did you check out the Sale section today? Were you able to snag any amazing deals? If so, please share! :)

J.Crew Factory: New Arrivals! Plus Teachers & Students Get an Extra 25% Off

Please share your J.Crew item (either that you own or are thinking about getting) that you would love help creating an outfit with.

Also, please help out by offering your styling advice. Feel free to include links to your blog (where you incorporated that piece) or to Polyvore (where you showcased an outfit with that piece). Thanks in advance! :)

J.Crew Factory Exclusive Early Access: Shop new arrivals before everyone else

"Thanks!" to many of you, who shared the following news/email from J.Crew Factory with us.

J.Crew Factory is offering a sneak peek at the latest arrivals with prices up to 30% off! They are also throwing in free shipping (no min!). Both these offers are just for today! So check your email to see if you got the invite and code.

Is it just me, or is the theme this time around "horses"? I have the original sweatshirt version in both colors. It was really hard to track them down too. They sold out at regular J.Crew without getting marked down. I should have known that J.Crew Factory would have its own version. It would have saved me a lot of time! ;)

In all seriousness though, the amount of duplication at J.Crew Factory (of J.Crew retail) this season is crazy!

Have you received this email? Will you be taking advantage of this promotion? Any items you are interested in? If so, please share!
