Sought & Found: Did you visit J.Crew this {past} 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 stopped by a J.Crew store this past 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 was/ is carrying an additional percent off sale. Thanks in advance!!! :)

    3. I apologize for the late reply. It was the stacked stone necklace reviewed by jcrewismyfavstore in this link: http://jcrewismyfavstore.blogspot.com/2014/04/j-crew-stacked-stones-necklace-and.html) There were only 2 necklaces left, I got one for a friend and another lady rushed to get last one once she saw it.

  5. OT: Are there any JCAs that have visited the Madewell stores in Bellevue or Seattle, and can comment on their inventory/sale section/customer service, etc.? I will be taking my son to an appointment in Spokane, and would like to know if it's worth traveling the extra distance to check them out. TIA!

    1. I do not recommend this plan. Spokane to Seattle is about 5-6 hours of driving, including a boring stretch of nothingness in Eastern WA, crossing a mountain range, traffic congestion in Bellevue and then, if you want Seattle, crossing a toll bridge and dealing with more traffic and parking issues. The SAs at the Bellevue Madewell were nice and all, but it's really just another mall storefront. It doesn't have an extensive selection and, in my opinion, is not worth driving across the state. You'd be better off ordering online and returning.

    2. Thank you for the information WA Shopper! I was hoping the Madewell stores were going to be larger ones worth the extra time and distance to visit, but it sounds as if that isn't the case. At least not to extend the time of an already long day for my son's appointment. We are planning to make a visit to Seattle and Portland during the summer, so I'll wait to visit both Madewell and J.Crew then. Thanks again for taking the time to respond! :)

  6. For those interested, I've updated the J.Crew Promo-Priced Items list with the latest additions. The extra 30% off is still going on until tomorrow, and there are a lot of promo items eligible for the discount right now. You can see the list here on my blog. :)

  7. I just received an email with my spring rewards information. It was much smaller than previous months so I thought there may be an error. Does anyone know the cutoff dates for each seasons' award accruals? I've often tried to figure it out and it befuddles me the way the rewards are calculated. Maybe they are penalizing me with triple negative points for things that are returned!

    1. Hi Shopping Celle - I believe that these rewards would be for the period 1/1/14-3/31/14. The next cutoff dates will be 6/30/14, 9/30/14, and 12/31/14 if they keep doing this based on previous years. HTH!

    2. I just received my J.Crew rewards, too! $25!

      I wasn't expecting it because I haven't bought much this spring...if I did, I buy a lot during promotions so that I can try it on at home, I keep what I like and return the rest.
      Oh well....yay! Extra $25 for me! :-D

    3. I just went to the mailbox and the rewards card was there waiting for me!
