If you haven’t heard, Gymboree is closing 900 of their stores. Read it here
Ordinarily it wouldn’t really matter to me. 95% of the boys’ clothes come from garage sales. However, The Hubs and I have really been focusing on going through all of our stuff and reducing what we don’t need. It also means we are organizing all our crap. It also means we’ve found gift cards! Yippee!!
Amongst the gift cards, there was a Gymboree one.
Let me preface this by saying that I have Toys R Us gift cards that were unusable once they filed for bankruptcy. Allow me to introduce my angry face.
So not this time pal. Not this time. While this wasn’t exactly within my No Buy January Challenge, I used up that gift card while I still could. I bought sizes bigger than what Chaos is in right now, as he has a pretty good amount of his size in his closet now, but we don’t have hardly anything in his next size up.
What was interesting is that I didn’t get a rush from buying the clothes. It was just a thing. And I’m pretty excited about it.
