The Children’s Place in Tyler TX

January 29th, 2010

The Children’s Place

Broadway Square mall
4601 S Broadway
Tyler 75703
903 561 9192

The Children’s Place is a store in the mall where you can find great up-to-date fashions for babies and children’s clothing up to the age of 14 without paying a huge amount for them.

There are many things I love about the Children’s Place.

Firstly – the bright colors! Why dress your kids in drab colors when they can look cool and trendy in bright shades? They will have plenty of time in their adult lives for wearing pastels and black.

Secondly – the quality. The Children’s Place in Tyler TX is proof that you can have fashion and good quality. The things I buy last more than one season and more than one kid – you can pass them down or even consign them easily. The clothes wash well and are immensely practical for school and play wear.

Thirdly – you can buy things to match! I am not obsessive about having everything the same but doesn’t it feel good when you can dress your child in co-ordinating socks, hats and even hair accessories. Not only that, but you can buy matching outfits for different kids. My 7 year old is so proud that his baby brother has the same striped sweater as him. It is usually the girls that have all the fun with clothes but here is his chance to have something special that people compliment him on.

The Children’s Place also has really good end of season sales. You can sign up on their website to be informed about them or you can shop for bargains online. I have done that on occasions and been delighted to receive a large box of clothes for just $5 shipping. You can also return them to the store for credit if they don’t fit or you change your mind about a purchase. One thing I have found is that the sizes run slightly small – especially for baby wear so if you are not sure about the size, buy the larger. Otherwise I have no complaints about the clothes we buy.

Finally, I have found that a gift card for the Children’s Place is a good baby shower or birthday gift and if you are a coupon hoarder then sign up for the birthday club in store or online for discounts on your child’s birthday.

Tyler Big Lots

January 12th, 2010

We have two locations in Tyler TX for Big Lots, one is off of Beckham and the other towards the mall. I love going to Big Lots because they have everything you could possibly need or want and the prices for the most part are reasonable, especially if you are looking for movies. Big Lots is the place because it’s the cheapest I have ever seen anywhere. They have movies ranging anywhere from $3 to $10 dollars. The new releases are the ones that cost a little more or if you find a series, that usually costs a little more. I once bought the series, Life Goes On, and I paid $4 dollars for it. That is just an example of the things that you can find there.

I also found little Christmas ornaments for a little tree that I have. They have food, clothes, personal needs, bedding, some furniture and many more things. I could not even start to list everything at Big Lots even if I wanted to because they have so many categories of things to buy there. The service for the most part is good. It is a place where if you are looking for a store where you could find some inexpensive gifts for someone, then I would suggest going to Big Lots. It is always a convenient thing to have a Big Lots around. Big Lots is usually surrounding other stores.

The store off of Beckham is next to the General Dollar Store and the Shoe Warehouse. The other one that is close to the mall on the South side is located by Michael’s, Pet Land, Dollar Store, and a Chinese Restaurant. You could definitely take a whole day to experience the bargains available at Big Lots. You would have your shopping, entertaining and food done all in one place.
