    I'm like to spread the temptation to ease the buyers' remorse! My basket is full of Mini! Help!
    Am loving that the size threshold on Mini stuff seems to have been raised! My 3-y-o boy and 5-y-old girl will benefit lots!

    Think Boden will have to re-adjust there prices somewhat before I am tempted - they have hiked up them enormously... some nice stuff but some of the womens coats and dresses are just too expensive even with the 20% preview, sorry Johnnie.... Thats OP for heads up though, am sure it will benefit some...

    I noticed the price hike too! But the Mini stuff is cheaper!? for me because they have changed the age threshold between prices so boys 3-4 and girls 5-6 are within the lower price. This puts the boys vintage jeans at £20 for my 3-4-y-old instead of the £24 of the current S/S range... And I can get 5-6y tops for my DD from £6.40 (taking the 20% into account). + Quidco. ...So really, I'm saving money!

    and even with the banding change some of the mini prices have dropped - the boys applique tops are down a pound since the summer catalogue

    Loving the banding change as my little man is going into 3-4 soon and I was expecting the price to go up. Although I'm thinking 3-4 will swamp him as 2-3 is a bit on the big side still and he's almost 4. I may be going through the dreaded between sizes phase with him like I did with my older two last year. My choices were tops that looked like dresses or making them look like they'd outgrown everything they owned so I had to give it a miss for a year. I'm having all 3 dinosaur tops though whether they are too big or not - they'll fit him eventually and I love them.

    I noticed the price jump too. I also thought the skirts and dresses were a little boring this year :( Oh well..............

    LOL, your talking yourself into it.... I didnt notice the price difference with the childrens stuff as my 2 fall into the higher age bracket this year... Mini Boden stuff is sooo gorgeous though... MUST NOT RE-LOOK... MUST NOT RE-LOOK.... :)

    Agree, I normally have to squirrel away all I buy from them but for summer this year I have only bought 1 dress for me.
