Bargain Alert: Totsy.com



You already know that I am a big fan of members-only "flash sample sale" sites like Zulily and The Mini Social. There is a 3rd site I want to tell you about, which offers moms (and expectant moms) up to 70% off on products for kids ages 0-7, including baby gear, travel accessories, educational toys, and designer clothing. It's called Totsy and I think you will love it. It has some pretty awesome sales on top products that aren't easy to find everywhere. Each sale lasts for 48-72 hours and I wanted to bring two to your attention that are taking place right now. I'll be purchasing from them myself, for sur.

Sage Creek Organics clothing proves that organic clothing can be colorful, comfortable, and affordable. I adore Totsy's selection of their toddler/kids' playwear (I only wish it went past size 6X for girls; but I'll console myself with a shirt or two or S.) These are great back-to-school pieces, and every one is 100% certifified organic cotton. Clockwise from top left: Pacific Blue Iverson Rugby Polo (reduced to $15 from $29); Jenna V-Neck Bow Top in Poppy Red Stripe (reduced to $12 from $25); Poppy Red Solid Leggings (reduced to $8.50 from $16); and Jet Blue Corduroy Pants (reduced to $17 from $36);



The 2nd sale I must tell you about is for Soft Clothing, which I first heard about from one of my son's Early Intervention therapists. Now I am starting to read about Soft Clothing everywhere, with good reason- it is a very smart idea. Basically it's clothing that has been "tested" and approved as being comfortable to wear by kids with sensory sensitivites (which includes many children with various special needs). So everything is tagless, has flat seams, and soft elastic waists. Nothing that makes a sensory-sensitive kid scream when you try to wrangle it on. If this rings a bell with you and your child, you should check it out. The clothes are cute and go up to size 7/8 (thank you!!!)

Girls' Soft Party Dresses (in gold, white, or raspberry), reduced to $13.20 from $24.


Soft Whale Print Shorts, reduced to $13.50 from $27.



Soft Suspender Tee, reduced to $10.45 from $19

And one more thing: with every Totsy purchase you make, they plant a tree in the name of your child to help reduce the effects of deforestation. Nothing like feel-good shopping, right?

  1. Have you bought from Totsy personally? They have a terrible reputation! Read their facebook page comments and the BBB has several complaints about them. Just an fyi.

  2. Really? I've bought from them 3 times and never had a problem. Sometimes the shipping takes a little while, but probably because they do drop-shipping. Thanks for letting me know- I'll check out their FB page.

  3. I also wonder about the service. I placed a "promised delivery by Christmas" order a month ago and they are giving me the runaround saying that all sales are final and I just checked - BBB rates them an F!

  4. I am also having a HORRIBLE time with them. I had ordered shoes in October for Thanksgiving, and have not gotten the shoes or the credit. I have e-mailed over 20 times, I get a "canned" response and no real answers. The kicker is that the shoes they could not deliver went in sale again there a few months ago! I have had great experiences with ZuLily and HauteLook.
