    Good find. I would consider them to be grabbits, so hopefully it will keep the trolls who say 'wheres the grabbit' off your back OP.

    Edit-Maybe it wont.


    I think the best way to deal with trolls is to just ignore their inane comments and hope they crawl back to where they belong:rotfl:

    Superdry current stock is usually better to buy direct from the superdry website, I noticed a few items are £5 more in other stores, also superdry website offer free delivery. Not much but it all helps.
  • I know it is not technically"designer" Clothing, but to me it is very expensive :(

    here's a free tip - don't make a rod for your own back by buying designer gear for your kids.:money:

    If when they're older they want to spend their own hard-earned on designer gear then that' fair enough, but providing designer clothes for kids just makes it harder next time you buy them Tesco and they refuse to wear it.:)

    I am proud to say that my daughter will clothes from any shop :) But instead of wanting expensive toys, like lego etc which I am sure you will agree sells for over 40 pounds in alot of cases, she would like some treats of nice clothes, she does not want an i-phone, i-pad, laptop, ipod even, she would like some clothes, thanks so much for the advice - but I am quite good at parenting :):T

    I agree at Xmas you buy treats you wouldn't normally buy or are out of your normal price range , I think asking for clothes is sensible.

    I think kids should have every day clothes from high street stores and anything more trendy as gifts. It makes them value things more. I'd rather they asked for the expensive stuff at Christmas rather than expecting it all year so it sounds fine to me. Saying that my 10 year old has CK boxers as the boys at school laughed at his supermarket ones. I'm a soft touch.

    Superdry has an outlet at Bicester - I've not been in because I'm too old.
  • TK Maxx tend to have skater/surfer t-shirts like atticus/roxy/o'neill/animal. Always have men's calvin klein pjs too.
