Kids Foot Locker Makes Little Kids Big Stars +$50 GC Giveaway!



This year your pre-schooler will look adorable in some Chuck Taylor All-Star sneakers (available in low or high-top styles) and other brightly colored sneakers from your favorite brands. Kids Foot Locker carries Nike, Reebok, Adidas, and Timberland- to name a few.

Whether your child is in Infant sizes (1-3), Toddler (2-10), Little Kids (10.5-3), or Big Kids (3.5-7), Kids Foot Locker has something for every child.
Our nearest Kids Foot Locker is almost 30 miles away, but I recently popped in there to see what was on shelves. The associate was very nice, offering to appropriately size both of the kids, and find the perfect back to school shoes.

I was surprised to learn that Abbie is in a 13 now, and Alex is in a Big Kids 7. When the heck did that happen!? They grow so quick, and having the right shoes to grow in are even better.

What did we pick out for our kids? Abbie fell in love with a cute pair of pink and white Nikes with an iridescent swoosh, but unfortunately, they didn't have them and couldn't order them, in her size. We decided to hold off on her sneakers and work on Alex. He picked these super cool Reebok ZigActivate Big Kids sneakers.

Right now, Kids Foot Locker is running a great Back to School Sale, and offering free shipping on purchases over $50! While at check-out, enter coupon code IP222835 to take advantage of this great offer.

Our friends at Kids Foot Locker have supplied us with multiple Gift Cards to giveaway in celebration of our Back to School Bash, and for that we are VERY thankful. All opinions in this post, are strictly my own, and my choice to purchase shoes was not influenced by the company in any way.

To kick off our Back to School Bash, we are offering TWO lucky readers their chance to win a $50 Gift Card to Kids Foot Locker!

HOT DEAL! JCPenney Shoes Shipped $0.99 and up!!!

Totally huge kudos to Coupons Are GREAT! for this super savings tip at JCPenney's!

Jessica at Coupons Are Great! was able to score a pair of sandals for her son for only $0.99, using a $10 coupon code. They have men's women's and kids shoes super cheap, but in order to make the sale work you need to choose a pair of shoes over $10, the $9.99 ones won't work. My daughter wears a size 10 (toddlers) and I was able to grab these babies at only $7.99!! They're still a great deal because they were originally $30.

Ok, so here's the tips (and coupon code), courtesy of Jessica at Coupons Are GREAT!

* Search under the clearance tab for shoes. You must pick a pair that is $10 or more for this to work. You can’t chose the $9.99 ones. (My son’s were $10.99)
* Add the pair to your cart and head to checkout.
* Enter promo code: TEN2YOU at checkout to receive $10 off a $10 order or more.
* JCPenney is offering free shipping on all shoes through September 6, 2010. Shipping will automatically be zero when you checkout as long as you only have shoes in your cart.

Jessica also recommends using a site like Ebates to receive 6% cashback on your purchase, but I just signed up, and have no real first-hand knowledge on it. So check it out and see if you can save huge on shoes at JCPenney!!

See Kai Run Review and Giveaway!

The new fall line of See Kai Run is available now, and the new Jaewon sneakers showed up on our doorstep just about a week ago!

Abbie was ecstatic to receive her new shoes, and was super excited to wear her new back to school sockies as well! (Living in Florida, during the summer, we all live in flip flops.)

The last time we reviewed See Kai Run, we got to try the adorable peek toe Jennae shoes, and I was extremely happy with the quality of those shoes. It was my first experience with See Kai Run, and I fell instantaneously in love with their quality products!

The new line of shoes are just as adorable, and just as superbly made. The leather is incredibly soft, with a sturdy, yet flexible sole- perfect for growing feet.

The Jaewon sneaker shoes pictured above are made with mock laces and a velcro closure, which makes putting them on and removing them easy for little hands, without the frustrations of laces.

Preparing for preschool can be difficult enough on our little ones, so this year invest in a beautiful pair of See Kai Run sneakers or shoes for your little man or lady, and make getting out the door easy, fun and fashionable!

Want it?
Visit See Kai Run and receive FREE SHIPPING on all orders from now until 11am PT, on Friday, August 28th.

WIN IT!
Our friends at See Kai Run are offering one very lucky reader their chance to win a pair of SEE KAI RUN shoes for their little runner, or a pair of SMALLER by See Kai Run shoes for your baby!

Kids Foot Locker Brings your Back to School Memories to Life *Plus Giveaway*

When you close your eyes and think back to your first day of school, a few things will undoubtedly come to mind:

1. Brand new, sharpened #2 pencils, un-chewed, erasers fully in tact
2. Your notebook, binding not even cracked, first page blank, waiting to be filled with the thoughts and teachings (and doodles)…
3. A new outfit, freshly pressed (thanks mom), brand new shoes touching the pavement for the first time

Kids Foot Locker keeps these images in mind for the line-up of the 2009 Back to School sneaker collection with notebook and doodle inspired Nikes, Nike 6.0 skate sneakers, and new styles from Reebok—after all, imagine your first day without a new pair of sneakers— I don’t think so.

“When it comes to the first day of school, kids are always looking for fresh, fun looks that tap into their own personal style," said Jeanine Zocks, VP of Brand Marketing for Kids Foot Locker. "The exciting shoe line-up at Kids Foot Locker allows them to do just that by combining bright colors, patterns and creative school imagery in a unique and eclectic way."

Nike takes a page from your school books with a notebook-inspired Air Force 1 and Dunk lo, both designed wNike+Doodle+Pack+Girlsith marble and loose-leaf printed side panels. The heel includes the image of a notebook label complete with “sheet” and “page count” and the tongue has a line-drawing sketch of a school house.

It’s never long before a pristine notebook becomes a work of art, plastered from cover-to-cover with cartoons and bubble letters. The Nike “doodle” collection includes Blazers, Dunk hi’s, Max 90s, and Air Force 1’s that are, as the name implies, splattered with the stuff day dreams are made of.

Keeping with the fresh, bright theme, Kids Foot Locker introduces Nike 6.0—a line of skate sneakers that are constructed with the support needed for active kids. With unique color blocking, use of patterns and prints, they are a favorite on the playground.Reebok
Reebok brings new styles and colors into their Back-to-School collection as well. The Courtee, a kids’ basketball sneaker for both boys and girls is great for indoor and outdoor play with a non-marking outer sole, ankle cushioning and an easy-to-clean patent leather upper.




Win up to $100 in Gift Cards from Foot Locker for Back to School!

Our family loves shopping at Foot Locker, Lady Foot Locker and Kids Foot Locker, because we find sneakers that fit our every need- and our budget. As a mom of a boy, finding shoes that will fit him properly and last for awhile is very difficult. He's got long, wide feet, and he's extremely hard on his shoes. He puts his sneakers to such great use, they're usually busting at the seams, overly stinky, and just ratty looking in only a couple of months. Last year, I hopped from store to store, until I wandered into a Kids Foot Locker store in our local mall. I explained the situation, our budget, and the amazing sales woman helped me find shoes that worked for my son. We walked out with a pair of Nike's that lasted the WHOLE year!

Since our shopping experience for Back to School last year, I've been hooked on Foot Locker, and have suggested them to everyone looking for fabulous sneakers. I even returned to purchase his cleats for soccer, and again, walked away with a smile. After the new year, I shopped around for a new pair of running sneakers, because I vowed to spend more time on my treadmill. I received an ad for Lady Foot Locker and after being in the store for 10 minutes found the perfect pair.

The sales and deals they offer are always incentive enough for me to go back an d shop some more. Right now Foot Locker & Lady Foot Locker is running some great back to school sales on mens & womens sneakers, plus with any qualifying purchase over $30, you'll receive a $10 off coupon at Office Depot- which is perfect for back to school! Kids Foot Locker is offering a free Jordan Mini Backpack on orders over $50!

While preparing this review and giveaway, I also found out that Foot Locker Stores love to give back to their community by offering School Rewards points! Find the special school code, and when you place an order, Foot Locker donates 5% of your purchases back to your child's school.

Want it?

Now that you've learned more about Foot Locker, their unbeatable customer service, their fabulous sales, and their School Rewards.. Head over to Foot Locker, Lady Foot Locker, or Kids Foot Locker now to shop around or find a store near you! Take advantage of t he special offers mentioned above and save some extra cash this Back to School season!

WIN IT!
Our friends at Foot Locker have offered TWO $50 gift cards to giveaway during this Back to School Bash! Since there are two gift cards being offered, you have the chance to win up to $100 in gift cards!*

With NewBaby in the house, finding shoes that fit here were near impossible. She had the smallest feet I had ever seen, very long and slender, but still petite in every way! Newborn shoes were too big, and I couldn't find a simple pair of preemie shoes that wasn't a christening type shoe. A friend of mine suggested checking out Etsy for someone who makes baby shoes and booties, and I happened to find KABOOGIE.

I've had the pleasure to to talk to Audrey, (the shop owner), and got to know her better, as the "Spring Fling" and craft show chaos were quickly approaching. This incredible mom of 6 shared some wonderful insight, some stories with me, and it was absolutely delightful.

It's truly wonderful to get the realization that behind the great products you use and
purchase from an online shop, store, or boutique, that there was a warm face behind it that spent countless hours dreaming and creating the product you love!

WANT IT?

AMI Clubwear and Accessories Website Review

I am always in search of great looking clothing at great prices. Especially with the economy in the way that it is, I find that splurging on an outfit to go out with the girls is just not do-able unless I find a super amazing deal. I recently found AMI CLUBWEAR and fell in love with their huge selection of shoes, (I love shoes!) and then started to notice their clothing line. My style is more comfortable and versatile than runway fashionista, but I like to look very well put together when I go out. Whether you are looking for an outfit to go to a night club or party or just for "something different", the selection of outfits at AMI will have you checking to see if your style is most like Paris Hilton, or Ashlee Simpson.

I will be honest, there are a lot of outfits that are a little risqué and reveal way too much for my comfort zone, but as you sift through the pages of affordable, funky tees, formal and summer dresses, shoes and accessories, I think you'll find what attracted me to AMI.

Occasionally, I go out with some of my friends to this really great restaurant that's located right on the beach nearby. The dress above would be perfect to wear one warm night while we sip some piña coladas, and watch the sun set over the Gulf of Mexico. Casual, yet fun, and exceptionally well priced makes this dress one of my favorites at AMI. The sizes at AMI are mostly small through large, and shoes are available from about 5 through 10 in most styles. Right now they are offering free shipping on all U.S. orders over $50 using the coupon code: AMISHIPPED. Go check out their selection, and tell me if you find something you love!

Talk About Cute Shoes! See Kai Run Review & Giveaway~#20

I had never heard of See Kai Run until this review. I did some research, and found out so many exciting things about the company, and read about so many happy customers- I knew I had to try them out!

It was love at first sight, when we opened the box and saw the Jennae shoes from See Kai Run.
"Are doz *my* pink shooce? My new pink shooce? Dare mine, mommy?"
"Yes baby, they are!"
"On my shooce, mommy? On my shooce!"

As soon as I took them out of the box, I knew these shoes were something special. The See Kai Run website describes them "Handcrafted from butter-soft sheepskin leather", and Oh-My-Goodness, they mean butter soft! I could only imagine that if they made these shoes in *my* size that they would feel like I was wearing a glove, or nothing at all, or the most expensive silk or leather- Seriously- they're THAT soft! Instantly, Abbigaile declared these shoes her new favorite shoes, and she wears them everywhere. She's been seen at the mall HERE, at the carnival, and even at the Marketplace at Downtown Disney. Everywhere we go, someone stops us to ask where we got them, it's to the point where I think I am going to ask them to send me a ton of business cards!

The quality of these shoes is exceptional, I've noticed that we've had them long enough to see that the insoles start indenting to her foot, so it really gives her a great fit (think the way Reefs take the shape of your feet). The customer service is awesome; I had some questions about the lining, and I got a quick and courteous answer right away. See Kai Run shoes have been given the APMA Seal of Acceptance, which is only given after passing extremely high standards for foot health and functionality.

See Kai Run shoes are available for both boys and girls, and from Smaller sizes 0-6 mos. through 12-18 mos. and in toddler sizes 3-9. Whether you are looking for a pair of sandals, dress up shoes, sneakers, or regular every day shoes, the selection of bold, beautiful colors will allow you to find just the perfect pair. For your older children, See Kai Run offers the Eleven line, which carries sizes 9-3.

Not only does See Kai Run carry something for everyone, the company itself has been very active in giving back to the community as well as the entire world through their partnership with Soles4Souls and several other charitable organizations.

Win it!
Our friends at See Kai Run are offering one very lucky reader their chance to win a pair of SEE KAI RUN shoes for their little runner, or a pair of SMALLER by See Kai Run shoes for your baby!

Giggle Bug Boutique~Website Review, Interview and Bugaboo Shoes Giveaway!

I am always in the market for cute, funky, reasonably priced stuff for my family. My style is rather confused, lol! Sometimes I like preppy clothes, sometimes my kids get decked out in retro tees and flower power dresses, sometimes they look like little punk rockers in training, and some days we wear our pjs all day long. While browsing some online shops and boutiques, I found GIGGLE BUG BOUTIQUE, and I am *so* happy I did! Giggle Bug Boutique carries an assortment of clothes and accessories for babies, children, moms, dads and even for your pets! If you need a gift, GIGGLE BUG BOUTIQUE is a perfect shop to get all that you need. You'll find a variety of designer diaper bags, clutches, personalized items, gift baskets, Bugaboo Shoes, Baby Legs, even CD's, and so much more! Let your child's inner super hero out in a handcrafted cape! Never loose another binky with paci-clips.. everything you need, just a click away! 4BabyAndMom was fortunate enough to be able to have a quick interview with the Giggle Bug Boutique Owner, Nicki. I hope you enjoy getting to know Nicki and the GIGGLE BUG BOUTIQUE as much as I did!

HI NICKI! I *LOVE* your boutique, the stuff on there is so fresh and funky, practical, and very reasonably priced.. I'd love to learn a little about you and what you were doing before Giggle Bug Boutique came about.
Let’s see…well, I spent 13 years in tele-com, mostly in data networks and boring geeky stuff like that. I had a brief couple of years in marketing, and though I loved that part of it, telecom can only be so interesting. So, after my last son was born, I decided it was time to do something I really wanted to do…and just
be a mom and a wife. That only lasted for about 2 months. My brother and sister in law who created Bugaboo Shoes, called me and asked if I would help them market the new shoe biz in the Midwest where I live. A little hesitant to make any commitments outside of my immediate family, I agreed to help. We were only looking for specialty shoe stores and boutiques for the shoes, so I was meeting a lot of boutique owners. Listening to their stories on how they opened their boutiques, I got the craziest idea! I wanted a boutique that I would shop in. My taste is very eclectic. Some days I want the cute little tutu and tiaras and some days I want to rock out in my funky t-shirts, jeans and a pair of BabyLegs on my arms. I wanted a place to shop for the whole family including the pets that would be a fun experience where you could find not your every day designs, but some funk to it!

What was your inspiration behind the name of your Boutique?
The name was probably the easiest. My husband has always called me his Giggle, probably because I spend a lot of time laughing. Why not…there’s so much in life to giggle about! And Bug comes from our boys who are the inspiration in everything that Giggle Bug Boutique is about. We’ve always called them our Bugs. Our oldest, Mak, has moved on away from the Bug era, but even at 15 he’s still c
ute as one. Our youngest, Tate, is still Tater Bug though. Our boys give us inspiration every day in everything they say and do. I want them to see Giggle Bug is an expression of what we want for them…and that’s to play and work hard, love long and laugh so very much!

What do you feel is the most important quality in your business?

The most important thing to me about Giggle Bug Boutique is customer service. I run the store like a mom because I am one. I shop my designers as what I call a professional mommy! I want the best quality, the coolest and hippest styles at the most affordable prices. When you shop at Giggle Bug Boutique, you become our friends, even if you’re just browsing!


WOW~ Thanks so much to Nicki, owner of GIGGLE BUG BOUTIQUE for allowing us to interview you!

I really love learning about merchants- who they are and where they came from, and how their ideas developed into a reality. I think as a consumer, it helps allow us to remember that shop owners are real people too, and as a business woman, it reminds you that all things *are* possible, when you put your heart, mind and faith into it.
