Where do you buy nice PJs at a decent price?
I would normally go for Boden/Gap/White Company, but as I need 4 pairs for DD, and don't want (can't)spend £60 I'm having a bit of a problem.

Even the ones in H&M were £10 a pair.

Am I just being realy tight?

I got two pairs of pjs for my DD for £7 in sainsburys. They are quite nice, stripey and pure cotton. What I can never find is nighties in pure cotton that aren't stupidly over priced.

I always go to Primark for pjs. They are only between £3 and £5. When I go to Dublin I go to Dunnes and pick some up there if there is room in my case.

At Christmas though, depending on how many pennies I have left I like to get some nice ones to put on on Christmas Eve when the kids get out the bath

[gein] - you never struck me as the needy type, slubb.

I should admit, at this juncture, that dd2 has a white company dressing gown, bought by her grandma. She needs a 100% cotton one and what with the mushrooming of all things fleece it was becmoning a devil to find one. So good old WC.

The White Company ones do last beautifully... cost per wear is pretty good value, especially when you have several children.
They sell on ebay for reasonable prices too.

DD's christmas ones this year still look brand new, and I cannot imagine how many times I have washed porridge off them.

I have a great weakness for white co pj's for my DS. I buy the separate bottoms and then team them with cheaper t-shirts, but I've also managed to buy white company ones from e-bay, 3 for a tenner bnib.
It's useful to have plenty of spare bottoms when he has an 'accident'. White co always look so fresh, in fact in the summer he wears the ones from the last 2 years as cropped pj's and they still look like new.

BHS pjs are ok, they are in gopping colours but the dds seem to like them.

thank you slubber - all is right with the world.

honestly - dd clothes are mostly hand me downs but i have a real weakness for gorgeous nighties for dd. the rest of white company is a pile of shite - shite wrapped upin tissue paper and twigs but shite nonetheless

hello slubs. Yes I did but it was after the event and I would have felt a bit 'me me me' if I'd gone back to comment. You know how it is. But I know where to come when paranoia drives me to change again

pjs are ridiculously expensive though. I bought the dds pjs in M&Co recently and I'm sure they were about a tenner. Hardly top notch.

primark for brushed cotton (go up a size as they do shrink at first, but then last forever)
