Savings Strategies for The Children’s Place

If you have children and love style, you are probably a regular at Children’s Place. If you are not yet, consider stopping buy and seeing for yourself all the fashion you can enjoy and all the savings you can have. There are ways to save up to 90% on everything in the store, which might make it cheaper than Walmart’s clearance section. Don’t believe us? Read on to see for yourself:

1.    When is the best time to shop at Children’s Place?

Our recommendation is to shop during Place Cash promotions only and get $10 vouchers for every $20 spent. This store money will have to be spent on later purchases.
You should also sign up for My Place Rewards program and collect 1 point for every $1 spent. Every 100 points will give you $5 voucher. All members also get kids’ birthday month savings every year.

2.    When during Place Cash promotion should you shop?

You should shop this sale at its very beginning, if you can. This way you will get unlimited Place Cash and will also collect your rewards points for extra cash.

3.    When is the best time to shop for back-to-school?

The best way to do it is to buy half of your planned clothing in July-August, which is when Place Cash promotion is taking place with $10 vouchers on $20 purchases. Then come back in September and get the rest of your shopping done, while also spending your Place Cash. If you shop sales section, your savings can go through the roof.

4.    How should you distribute Place Cash?

The best way to maximize your savings is to buy sale items during Place Cash promotion, collect the cash vouchers, and then spend them on regular priced items.

5.    What is the best strategy for Double Place Cash events?

These events are about as good as it gets – instead of $10 Place Cash for $20 you get $20. Those sales usually happen a few days after the regular Place Cash event ends.

6.    Does shopping online make sense?

Online store has a huge sales and clearance section with 60-80% discounts, which are often better than in-store, except for plastic clearance bins. You can always call the store and ask about current clearance deals before buying online.  Shipping is always free.

7.    How does UPromise work?

UPromise is a cash back site, where you can create an account and head to Children’s Place from their website to get 5% cash back just for shopping.

8.    Does TCP do price matching with its own website?

Yes, they do. If you have to shop in-store, make sure you check online prices on your phone before buying and get the cashier to discount an item if you find something identical cheaper online. Site wide sales usually offer 50% off current season items and 60-80% discounts on off-season merchandise. You have 7 days to get price adjustment post purchase.

9.    Does TCP accept discounted gift cards?

Yes, they do and you should never shop without them. Check out Gift Card Granny or Raise for cards that can be up to 12% off.

10.    Can you get discounts for buying gift cards?

You will get $10 gift card for spending $50 on gift cards. You won’t earn any Place Cash on such purchase, but you will get $10.

11.    Is signing up for email list worth it?

You will get $10 off the first order after the free sign-up and will have to use it that same day. The rest of the time emails will bring you information about Place Cash days and all the 60-80% off sales, so we’d say, yes, it’s worth it.

12.    How many coupons can you use at a time?

You can stack up to 6 coupons each time.

13.    Are returns free?

They are free if you return your unwanted merchandise to any physical store. You will be charged for shipping when mailing your order back.

14.    How cheap do graphic tees get?

Graphic tees get to be under $3 each during sales quite frequently, which is cheaper than Walmart. You can pair that with free shipping and enjoy the best deal there is.

15.    When is a good time to buy accessories?

Accessories often go into clearance section online and clearance bins in-store and cost $1-$2, which is then the best time to buy socks, hair bands, sunglasses, gloves, and scarves.

16.    What perks does TCP credit card offer?

Credit card holders get 2 points per $1 spent, so double the points. They also get 30% off their first credit purchase and 20% off for signing up. Shipping is always free and kids get 25% off coupon on their birthdays.

17.    What is the best way to get help from the customer service?

If you don’t want to wait forever and get angry about all the time on hold, don’t bother calling their customer service, but instead talk to a sales representative at your local store and you will have a much better experience. We have heard that customer service people can be quire rude over the phone.
