Family Dollar Kidgets Clothing Line Review

While entering a recent Sweeptakes on FamilyDollar.com about 2 months ago, I noticed an ad for Kidgets clothing. I clicked on the ad. What cute clothes for such a fantastic price!

I contacted Family Dollar and they were so gracious as to let me review some clothes from the Kidget clothing line.   I got a couple outfits for my youngest son and some for my niece so you could see how cute the clothes are for both boys and girls.

The prices for the Kidgets clothes range from $4-$8 for an outfit.  I don’t know about you, but when all my kids were babies and changing sizes every three months, I just couldn’t see spending a lot of money on clothes.  I’m a fan of Family Dollar anyway.  I had so much fun picking out these outfits.  Here are a few outfits I picked out for my youngest son. I looked in a couple local Family Dollars. It seems the Kidget Line only goes up to size 6. My two older boys are in bigger sizes.  They do have clothes in Bugle Boy brand for the older kids that are in really cool styles. 

The above pictured outfit is after 2 washes.  It did not shrink or fade. It was a preppy little summer outfit. size 18 months

This is another outfit I bought.  I bought it so it will fit him next summer.  This is a 24 month outfit. (If you’re wondering the tag says $5, go ahead and enlarge it and see for yourself)

Then I bought a few outfits for my niece and my sister sent my some pictures of her modeling the outfits I bought her.  I got her one outfit that fits now and one a little bigger:

My son has worn his little preppy outfit 4 times since purchase so far.  As most 13 month olds are, he’s into everything in his clothes.  Trying to climb steps, crawling on the floor, creeping on furniture, and these clothes held up well to the everyday wear and tear.  They did not fade after several washes. 

The green outfit on my niece came with the short and 2 coordinating shirts.  I just got her to take the pictures for me and send them.  I love the way these clothes look and fit on the kids. 

The Family Dollar Kidgets clothing line is a real bargain for children.  You may want to consider Kidgets clothes when back to school shopping for your little one or when looking for a cute outfit for a child.  Family Dollar also offers the Bugle Boy clothing line for the older ones.

Review Summary:  At only $4-$8 per outfit the Kidgets clothing line is a cute clothing line that will fit into anyone’s budget.  It’s also a great price to be able to give it a try for yourselves.  I found the Kidgets clothing line to be of good quality to hold up to every day wear and tear, particularly for my son who is 13 months old.

Review and Giveaway: Lunchboxes.com COUPON ALSO! Giveaway CLOSED

I had the opportunity to review a couple of cool lunch boxes from http://www.lunchboxes.com 

Before we know it, it will be back to school shopping time again. I know my boys would whine if they saw what I just typed lol. Think about http://www.lunchboxes.com when in need of a new lunchbox.  I chose 2 lunchboxes from lunchboxes.com.  One for me and one for the boys to use.

The boys picked the camo skull lunch bag.  The one pictured on the the right in the above picture.  They were very happy with with it.  I used it for the 4th of July fireworks to take a few drinks along with us, some string cheese, and a sippy cup for the baby.  There’s plenty of room inside this one.

Then There’s the Bon Appetit system that has way more cool features then the description on the
 http://www.lunchboxes.com/ site goes into.

I received the Bon Appetit Lunch System in white and orange.  Looking at the picture above you may think, Ok it looks cool so what else does it do?  Well I’ll show you.

I took the whole system apart to show you the pieces. There’s a large square bowl, if you will.  Plenty of space if you’re just taking something like a bowl of leftover spaghetti into work.  Take your fork and just leave the other pieces at home.  The lid locks on with little locks on both sides where the handles are.  There is a rubber seal around the lid that seals in everything, so no leaking  that spaghetti sauce into the stylish carrying back.  That brings me to the carrying back which opens the whole way and can be used as a placemat.  There is velcro around the side so it seals up into a cute stylish carrying back.  People may not even know it’s your lunch bag. 

                                                       Sealing the system into the bag.

                                                               Packed and ready to go

All of the pieces fit in a nice neat package.  You can store items in the main part and store items you want to keep seperate in the larger triangle section.  There’s a smaller triangle section that you can put in sauces, dips, or a small portion of something like maybe nuts for as salad or croutons.   Then there’s the fork.  Do you notice that the fork is rounded on one side of the prongs and straight on the other.  The straight side is for cutting.

The lid is not exception to being an efficient part of the Bon Appetit lunchbox system.  See the little circle  I’m pointing to in the pic?  That is for your sauces.  Like ketchup for your fries, honey mustard for your nuggets, etc.  Store it in the little triangle section and pour some into this well for a neat way to keep your sauce seperate from the rest of your meal.

I packed my lunch up for work one day. Cashew Chicken.  I put the rice in the main part and the chicken in the large triangle part.  Extra cashews in the small triangle container. 

Everything fit in nicely, even with the fork inside.  Sides locked and ready to go.

There are many more lunchboxes at http://www.lunchboxes.com/  from metal, plastic, insulated, bento boxes, lunch box accessories such as thermoses , ice packs and more.  Check out the cool selection:  http://www.lunchboxes.com/
