    I just bought the gap pants from gap.com, they had a 40% off coupon which worked on the uniform pants so I got them for 12.

    I think the coupon expired but it was GAPTREAT

    I love Lands End…you get the deals near spring/ early summer, but they can be amazing and no one beats their quality…You can also shop their sears outlets with apparel…not all have apparel, but they are definitely worth finding. This summer I found the plaid jumpers for $4.50…they had all sorts of other pieces, but as at all outlets it can be hit and miss.

      i second the vote for land’s end. their stuff is top quality, and should easily last through a semester or two, even for elementary schoolers.
