Let's start a thread on what we are getting with Gymbucks. I am sure I will find a way to spend mine, but I must say that I am not really wowed by anything.

I think I like this a lot:

but of course I have to see it IRL. I am a real dog lover as is dd. :D The pants they have with it are adorable, but I am looking for something with more longevity, i.e. full length, not cropped. Maybe I will get the navy ruffled leggings or just pair it with some old navy leggings (thanks for the poster who gave me the tip). :)

I like the little skirts in RG, but wonder if getting a cute Gymbo top to pair with a plain skirt from TCP (7.50) might be the better way to go.

Maybe this outfit:

The shirt and jacket would go well with one of the skirts from TCP too.

I think the velour pants and jacket sets in both romantic garden and chelsea girl are adorable, but $50? Once you add a shirt it's more like $70-75.. call me a cheapo, but that's a bit steep IMO. That's why I think I may just go for the jacket which I am sure we will get more wear out of. I do like the blue one better but the pink goes better with all that we have already.

I'm nuts, right? LOL I will likely walk out of there with entirely different outfits than I have pictured above. LOL

I like the blue velour hoodie, but Logan's hair is getting so long that hoodies don't really work for her now. (her hair lays in/on the hood on her back and looks strange to me.)

I'll probably just search the clearance rack for something. Nothing reached out and grabbed me from the new lines.

I love the doggie sweater. I'd pair it with basic jeans or maybe pink leggings or ruffle pants (weren't there plain pink ruffle pants with City Sidewalk last year? You might find them on eBay?). Hanna made plain black wide wale baby cords last year that would also be cute with it.

I am so glad to see some simple ruffle pants come back. We have navy ones in 12-18 from European Holiday that I can't bring myself to part with even though they're getting so short! They were just the most useful pants.

Best,
Mary

I loved those black ruffle pants with City Sidewalk! Katie got so much wear out of those. If she were to wear them now, they would be capris. :D They have the pink and navy ruffle pants out so maybe those. Black is just so versatile. I wish they would do basics in more colors.

Just curious to see how many everyone got! I sadly only have one measly Gymbuck, and am waffling on how to spend it. I like the Best in Show (at least online, sometimes in person things aren't like I thought they'd be, kwim?) print onesie and sweater pants... we'll see.

I am not sure. I actually still want some stuff from the Cherries layette line! So, I might get that and maybe a few things from the new lines. I haven't seen the IRL, so not sure which items I really like.

I only have one gymbuck (my 1st one!) and I asked at the store the other day if they were going to have solid color t-shirts and she said "yes" so that's what we'll be getting. Yes, I have a boy, and I like to dress him very plainly!

I have boys! I have four Gymbucks (a lot for me, but I liked Little Man and bought a lot at the 1,2,Free sale). I'll be buying Wild West for both boys and maybe a few pieces from the Best in Show line for my baby.

Simon will likely be getting

Maybe these

And from the other line...I MIGHT get these

Well, I have my firt two gymbucks ever, to spend.

These I must say, these are begging to be bought (in a far far far distant former life I used to dance):
[IMG src="http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140003256?$240x305$"]

And I lvoe this set, though most of this I envision on a toddler, I can't really "see" it on a baby. Maybe I'll buy a bigger size:

http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/image/Gymboree/140002684?$240x305$

I should probably buy for colder weather, but I like this a lot:

Maybe I'll jsut see if the 'at the beach' things I've already purchased are less now and rebuy them. When does redemption start? I should put stuff on hold, shouldn't I? I'm so green when it comes to the gymbo game.

I have 3 Gymbucks - all from buying gifts. I haven't bought any Gymbo for DS since Lets Go Camping. I put a few outfits from WW on hold. I do not like the new boy's line so we'll skip that line entirely.

We have two Gymbucks (the most ever but I knew I would like Wild West). Andrew is getting:

I already bought the WW cowboy hat (fearing his size might not be around anymore once redemption time got here) otherwise, would definitly be getting it. I'm REALLY hoping to find the boots in his size. These are to go w/ the western-style denim shirt I got from Janie and Jack, not the above outfit. :)

A long sleeve shirt from construction zone (since he LOVES trucks/tractors). Maybe this one (I'll need to see them in person):

I still need to decide on one more item to round out the $100 mark, but I'm not sure what that's gonna be yet...
