Mother & Co. stock clothing that fits the bill perfectly, with gorgeous Baboig maternity wear, and French label Virginie Castaway, ready to lavish on all you yummy mummies.

It’s Boxing Day – hurrah!  We’ve all survived Christmas for another year, and now you can put your feet up (well, as much as a busy parent ever can) and get to work polishing off those leftovers.  ”Put my feet up?” I hear you saying, “But I can’t, there’s sales shopping to do!”  Aha! That’s where the magic of online shopping becomes even more wonderful.  You don’t need to go out and join the sweaty crush at the shopping centre to snap up those bargains, because the prices have been slashed by just as much, if not more, online.  You can shop from the comfort of your own living room and then sit back with your plate of leftovers and wait for the parcels to hit your letterbox. Voila!  Bargain hunting at its best.

One of the stores you should definitely be checking out for post-Christmas sales is Where Did You Get That? – www.wheredidyougetthat.com.au – where a vast array of summer clothing has been marked down for your buying pleasure.  WDYGT? has been a stockist of luxe brands Tommy Rocket and Two Belles, but they’re now discontinuing these lines, and as a result, all Tommy Rocket & Two Belles has all been marked down by a colossal 60%!  This makes for amazing buying – grab a size up for next summer, or top up the kids’ wardrobes for the months of warm weather we still have in front of us.

Just to add to the glorious riot of sale items, the very popular Daily Tea range has been marked down by 20%.  Likewise Claesen’s, fabulous for high quality children’s underwear and fashion, is also slashed by 20%, making it even more appealing. These brands are both known for their high quality and great design.

Where Did You Get That? are giving us 20% off storewide *including* already discounted items!  Use the code KSFBOXSALE (please note that it’s case sensitive) at checkout, making sure to do so before 4 January 2012. You can use this discount to get even cheaper current and previous season fashion which is already 40%-60% off, and as well as that you can stock up on high quality toys such as the Le Toy Van Honeybake Oven & Hob Set or Crazy Forts Construction Toy – 69pc Set which are ideal to put away for birthdays during the year.  As well as that you can get ready for back to school times by using your 20% off on rarely discounted brands such as Goodbyn lunch boxes and Contigo drink bottles.
