FMC EXCLUSIVE news on Janie & Jack

While the world of J&J shoppers are in a flurry to shop Season Finale, FMC has been talking behind to those in the know behind the scenes!

We previously reported on a pink and brown "confetti" line- reminiscent of Sweet Confetti from 2005 (oddly enough, the year J&J seems to be emulating). Now we can report EXCLUSIVELY that the window dressing for this Fall Transition line will be a cream colored cake plate with faux petit fours! All mini cakes are in a white wrapper with brown striping. Some are white and round with pink "frosting" flowers. Another is square and white with a trio of white, pink and purple flowers. Another is light pink with pink roses and white piping. Lastly are rectangular, dark brown, chocolate-looking ones with a single rose iced on top.

This line is gearing up to be really beautiful. You can find it in stores Sunday, June 28th at midnight Eastern. In store times to follow that week.

A Big Week for Sales!!

The boards were a buzz earlier this week with the surprise announcement that Gymboree was having an unprecedented $2.99/$4.99 sale on merchandise that had JUST come out. Whatever the reason behind the sale, people have been taking advantage and stocking up with Summer must haves!

Just as the buzz of the sale began to quiet down, came news of a similar sale from Janie & Jack. Tomorrow morning, Friday, January 30, 2009, Janie & Jack stores will be having markdowns of older merchandise down to $3.99! This sale is only for Friday and Saturday only, so HURRY! This information came courtesy of Ash's Closet (an AWESOME eBay seller.).

Crazy8 has also announced a $3.99 sale on hundreds of items. A quick check of their website shows accessories coming in even cheaper- some at $2.99 and even $1.99.

This is a great week for shopping! I hope everyone is out finding great deals!

Happy Shopping,
