Someone get me some polo shirts in a L. Thanks.
10/7/2011 9:23:57 AM
last time they had this sale, they were so disorganizedDon't go if you don't have time to look through piles and piles of clothesI did get 3 pairs of pants and 2 shirts for like $60 though. Just have to have the patience to sift through piles of clothes.

Here's a link to a blog post and some pictures of the one they had in January with some tips:http://jcrewaficionada.blogspot.com/2011/01/jcrew-regional-warehouse-sale-in-chapel_14.html

Fhqwhgads go get me some polos!
10/7/2011 9:30:33 AM
No! You're not supposed to advertise this until I've had a chance to go through and clean up what I want!! I'm heading by there tonight on my way home. The last one was disorganized, but I don't think there's a way to do it any better than it's done.
10/7/2011 9:32:41 AM
crossing my fingers that this sale escapes my wife's radar.got dragged there last year and I spent the time alternating between fantasizing about suicide methodology and how I'd mow down all of these fucking batshit insane women with various types of weaponry.
10/7/2011 10:28:57 AM
^LOL Awesome post A+^^You and I are the same size-- grab two of everything!!!
10/7/2011 10:36:28 AM
^Yes! I managed to get some great cashmere sweaters last year for cheap (~$20), a suit dress for $15, and some LuLu Metallic Peep toes, which are completely awesome. Hoping to get lucky again this year.

10/7/2011 12:08:22 PM
yes lets post this so even more folks will show up and buy all the shit before you get theregreat idea
10/7/2011 12:12:34 PM
^ ahaha, yeah that's why i didn't share the vineyard vines Buy one get 75% off sale they had last weekend.
10/7/2011 12:41:04 PM
exactly!
10/7/2011 12:45:21 PM
I was grateful.. I didn't know about it. I managed to find a short wedding dress for possible reception change/rehearsal dinner, pair of chinos, a sweet blazer, some booties, dress pants, and another dress.I think I could've spent forever in there just looking at stuff. I definitely took the advice of wearing bike shorts under my jeans and a cami. Had no qualms trying on things wherever. I love digging through piles of things...
10/7/2011 8:29:02 PM
i bought an emerald cotton tee, a white silk blazer, and a wool sweater honestly i feel the men's stuff is better.. i found a bunch of chinos and suitpants for $15 and tees for $10
10/7/2011 8:37:30 PM
plain clothes are plain
10/7/2011 11:23:16 PM
I have jcrew cargo shorts... is that bad?
10/8/2011 7:36:13 AM
I shop at jcrew because they have an abundance of xs for little guys like me.[Edited on October 8, 2011 at 9:58 AM. Reason : Good story.]
10/8/2011 9:58:03 AM
I was going to head out there early am, think there will be anything good left?
10/8/2011 7:47:09 PM
There will be some good stuff, but a lot of it is already picked over. There are still hundreds of full boxes left. Also, they get another shipment in on Tuesday.
10/8/2011 8:20:12 PM
^ Tuesday? It's only open till Sunday...
10/8/2011 11:44:52 PM
It's open 10am-8pm every day until the 23rd...[Edited on October 8, 2011 at 11:54 PM. Reason : ]
10/8/2011 11:51:13 PM
Oh Tuesday sounds promising. Sunday or Tuesday?
10/9/2011 1:21:02 AM
Tuesday will be better if you hit it after the shipment is put out. Less people to deal with. Today is going to be crowded, especially if people think the sale ends today. Would suck if you went, and they hadn't unpacked any new stuff yet though.Also, the clearance sale in January had a steep price cut maybe half way through, so, I'm going back after that point. I didn't even look at shoes this time around, because they dropped them to $20 last time. And blazers are $50 right now, and should go down to $30 by the end of the sale.
10/9/2011 9:03:41 AM
So I decided to go, and all they had for guys were hundreds and hundreds of 40x30 chinos in various colors.I saw 1 polo and it was a small.
10/9/2011 6:09:26 PM
Damn. I was gonna hit this up, but it sounds like the men's selection sucks.
10/11/2011 9:34:04 AM
You might wanna go tonight or tomorrow since they're getting a new shipment in
10/11/2011 9:40:06 AM
is this still going on, everything i read said it ended on sunday
10/11/2011 9:58:59 AM
Well, I was thinking about going tonight. And who the hell wears 40x30? Wimpy? lol.

no need to be a smartass, the blog post said it was until sundayhttp://jcrewaficionada.blogspot.com/2011/09/jcrew-warehouse-sale-time-score-again.htmland the flyer originally just said fri, sat, sun[Edited on October 11, 2011 at 10:06 AM.

10/11/2011 10:03:10 AM
Not trying to be a smartass, it's just been answered a million times. I think the mistake is that people originally misread the flyer, since Sunday's times include through the 23rd, and they just skipped over it and just read "Friday, Saturday, Sunday." The flyer has not changed, that is the one I got originally in my email two weeks ago.
10/11/2011 10:15:37 AM
10/11/2011 10:18:58 AM
It's on the flyer itself, and in this thread, and anywhere else that's talked about the sale. It's not being a smartass, it's being capable of reading. And yes, now I'm being snarky, and you're being an idiot.And why would it need to be mentioned in the blogpost, when the answer is prominently displayed at the top?[Edited on October 11, 2011 at 10:25 AM.

Are you trying to prove that it's only three days? Because you're fighting a losing battle, as you well know. I've already offered my explanation on why I think people misread the flyer, but that's neither here nor there, as it's painfully obvious that it lasts until the 23rd. I don't understand why you're getting your panties in a wad over this. It lasts for 2 weeks, it always does.

Went again todaybought a size 10 dress that was gorrrgeeeousss that I will be selling for profit on eBay (but it's reallyyyy tempting to get alterations done for it to fit me.. its adorable)
10/11/2011 12:44:05 PM
btw the hours on the door state:Oct 7 & 8 from 8AM-8PMOct 9-23 from 10AM-8PM
10/11/2011 12:45:05 PM
oh take a picture!
10/11/2011 12:45:11 PM
i dont think they can cut the dress in two pieces and sew it back correctly ms. trish
10/11/2011 12:45:36 PM
Any idea what the men's stock looked like today?
10/11/2011 1:15:49 PM
GoldenGirl, as soon as I get home I can try to get a pic and post it but I was thinking of maybe finding one from online.gunzzybaby, LOL who knows!? My junior prom dress was a size 12 and was altered to my size,so since then I believe that ANYTHING is possibleMr Scrumples, I wanted to do some men's shopping but I walked in there at 11:37 and walked out at 11:58 to make it to work a minute late at 12:01. I just had enough time to look at the ladies' stuff but I'll say that Beethoven86 was correct in saying that they received a new shipment. Everything I actually did see was different from what I saw last Friday and there was much more size selection.
10/11/2011 2:28:54 PM
^Don't tell me that! It's going to make me want to go back!!
10/11/2011 2:40:40 PM
I'm in the area. I'll give it a swing...
10/11/2011 2:42:10 PM
egyeyes - go get me some polos!
