Moxie Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 DD suddenly needs new shorts. One would think, with 3 solid months of shorts weather left, we would be able to find some. Nope. If we find a Halloween aisle, I won't be surprised. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Ivy Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 DD suddenly needs new shorts. One would think, with 3 solid months of shorts weather left, we would be able to find some. Nope. If we find a Halloween aisle, I won't be surprised. Have you looked online or do you need to try them on? I hate fighting the crowds and the heat. I bet you could also find some good clearance sales too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 DD is a teen and wears women's sizes. But, thanks! And I get tired of returning online purchases that don't fit. Which is a whole 'nother rant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heartlikealion Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Maybe Kohl's? I laughed at the Halloween comment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bettyandbob Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I would go to Kohl's. Find out what brand and size pants fits her best. Then I'd go online to Kohl's and look up shorts under that brand. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clementine Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 We just scored big at our local goodwill-type thrift store! Worth a shot if you've got one close! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meganrussell Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Aeropostale and American eagle had shorts, buy one one get two free and buy one get one half off (respectively) at our mall last weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Yell Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Our local Platos Closet (teen sizes resale chain) is having a 90% off summer clearance this weekend. Current name-brand styles for about $1-$3! See if there is one near you? http://www.platoscloset.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandra Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Camping/outdoor stores may have shorts. They still do in our area (northeast). Amazon and also websites of manufacturers/brands you like are also good sources. We order online when we have a style that we like and that fits, but can't find it in right size or color. I take a quick iPhone pix of the tag, so I know I have the right model number before ordering online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparklyUnicorn Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I know, it's crazy. Saw all the school supplies already. Which to some here might not seem strange, but school gets out the last week of June here. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bambam Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Try Thrift stores. Our local high end retailers have started their clearance sales, so I see some shorts there - but not that many. The prices, however, are good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingersmom Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I went shopping for shorts for me yesterday and said any day now the winter stuff would be out. I was at thrift stores, almost no shorts and summer clothes on clearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparklyUnicorn Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 After Labor Day, like God intended!! Aug 8th seems crazy early to me. Even the colleges around here seem to start relatively late. The CC I go to starts on Sept. 5th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pippen Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Our local Platos Closet (teen sizes resale chain) is having a 90% off summer clearance this weekend. Current name-brand styles for about $1-$3! See if there is one near you? http://www.platoscloset.com Those of you with Plato's Closets, have your local stores changed over the past year? My daughter used to be able to easily find clothing there, but this past year it seems like everything on the racks is very tight, very short, very sheer, or very ripped up. She just took a bunch of clothes to resale stores and was disappointed by how little was taken. Plato's Closet didn't take any, including like-new American Eagle denim shorts. They said they only wanted shorts that were ripped or distressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparklyUnicorn Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 OMG..I cannot bring myself to pay money for ripped clothing. I could just get that for free digging through trash cans. :laugh: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pippen Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 OMG..I cannot bring myself to pay money for ripped clothing. I could just get that for free digging through trash cans. :laugh: I'm so mean that I won't pay for ripped clothes either! If someone wants a ripped garment, they are free to buy it themselves. The irony is that anything that rips later my daughter doesn't want to use. Apparently the only good rip is if you buy it that way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, was anyone else's very pricey on what they did have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
