Hanna Andersson...

I agree with the suggestion of trying ebay. If you like Hanna Anderson you will probably like clothes at gymboree, and they always have coupons or deals going on.

I love their clothes for my girls too! Look at "end of season sales" and buy early for the next year. You can get some pretty good deals! I recently got a holiday dress that was regularly $60 for $15 at their end of winter sale. They sometimes have sales on the upcoming season as well. Get on their email list and they will email you when they are having a sale. I don't think you can get their clothing new anywhere but from them.

Depending on where you are, shopping the store in Oak Brook can be good if you just go and hit the sale racks at the right time! I have 2 nieces in Ohio and my mom loves to get them Hanna Andersson stuff, so when I am at Oakbrook Mall, I stop in to see if the dresses she likes in the catalog are on the sale racks yet! It's not fullproof, but they do mark things down. Good luck!

You might also check ebay or some of the other sites like it for people selling "gently used" clothes. There may also be some resale shops in Chicago that sell only higher end clothing. Check around.
