Tres chic for tres cheap!

by Melissa | Baby, Kid Style

It’s quite possible that I might never set foot in an actual store again. I mean why bother schlepping outside when everything you could possibly want is a few clicks away? When I say everything, I mean the most gorgeous French designer baby clothes, all at...

Gaggle of Chicks – If you can get over the name, there’s savings to be had

by Mir | Uncategorized

I am not going to mince words here, so let me just say it: I hate that this site is named “Gaggle of Chicks.” Truly. I am not a chick, I am not part of a gaggle, and since when are great deals only for moms? C’mon. So, yes, if you need to take a...
