Where do you buy your children's pyjamas?

I want to spend about a tenner a set I suppose?
Nothing vile and hideous. Why are so many pj sets so horrid?
Online order.

Oh, and the reason I care is because we are going to stay with Grandparents who have not seen the children for 2 years, and I wand children to look GORGEOUS.

Sigh. Debenhams in price range but not that cute.
John Lewis has some gorgeous ones but they're all £20.

Do I just have to spend a bit more?

I would have thought £10 was plenty for a pair of pyjamas, given the work involved and the cost of fabric.

I've found that sainsburys pyjamas are really long lasting. Much better quality than any other supermarket and the dc always look really cute

Thank you for answering!

Unfortunately Sains doesn't seem to do online orders.

Well you may not like them...but Boden do fantastic quality and very nice designs in childrens pj's. I buy them all in the sale which puts them in your price range...but full price they are more.

You can order online and you can get cashback if you used TopCashBack or Quidco.

HomemadeCommunistRussia · 20/07/2011 14:42

What kind are you looking for?

If something traditional with buttons down the front then surprisingly Primark are very good.

I've looked at Boden and got the huff because they don't seem to have anything in my children's sizes.

Sorry didn't spot that about it needing to be on line.

I'm not sure the GPs will care about what pyjamas they are wearing anyway.

You sound really stressed, are you ok?

white company have a sale on might still be a bit over budget though. Hmm

These Guys also do some lovely great quality pj's but even on sale they are a touch above your price range.

i personally love spongebob. i think will order.seems to be in my budget and with the cshback voucher i think, just find her size..fingers crossed

sparkle1977 · 20/07/2011 15:30

I would agree that Sainsburys are great for PJs. Surprisingly tho I have found the best PJs to be from Matalan. Wash and wear really lovely. Not sure if they are online ?

The3Bears · 20/07/2011 16:02

I second the Boden ones got 6 pairs this year for ds and they still look like new, they cost more than others but imo they're worth it :)

killercat · 20/07/2011 16:08

I've bought cheap pairs before but now only ever buy White Company. Whenever there's a sale, I get a 15% off code, I see a good two-pack deal. They last for years and years and years. My three year old is just outgrowing her 2-3 sizes she has worn to death for the last 15 months (seriously, she spills her breakfast every day so they get washed loads), and they still look great. She is now wearing the 3-4 size I got DD1 when she was that age.
The nighties iron-up fabulous and the cotton stuff never seems to bobble.

grubbalo · 20/07/2011 16:13

I really love Hatley - although again they are a bit out of your price range. A good retailler who sells them is Little Sunflowers who at least have free p&p, and if you use the code BUDGET or HELLO you should get 10% off.

Nicola10 · 20/07/2011 18:14

I would agree with sparkle. Matalan are really good quality. The fabric is quite thick and do wash well. They are about £5 for a pair unless you are wanting simpson/star wars ones which I think are about a tenner.

LuckyMrsT · 20/07/2011 18:14

I'll second Hatley, amazing stuff. £££ though.

lostlady · 20/07/2011 19:21

This may sound weird, but by fat the nicest pyjamas I got mine recently was in Lidl. They are cotton, nice and soft, with no lurid horrible stuff, one girl, one boy, and very cheap. Wash well too. Luck of the draw tho, if they have them in.

TracyK · 20/07/2011 19:29

Why not try ebay for White Company and Boden. As said before - they last for years and years.

I've just bought some lovely ones from Lands End- but they are brushed ones for winter. But they are doing brushed navy snowflake and brushed red checks for £5.50 - just add a t shirt. They are loely and soft and thick.

mejon · 20/07/2011 20:49

Gap do fab pjs at around £15 a pair - a bit pricey but they wash really well and last for ages. I try to buy in the sale or when they do the 30% off vouchers. Nearly 5 year old DD1 still fits in her age 3 ones and they look as good as new. They have them online though not as much choice as in store.

diggingintheribs · 20/07/2011 20:57

I love the Gap pjs too and find they last really well

but yes - i only buy with a 30% off voucher and it sounds like you don't have time
