Terry Bath Robes...

I am looking for thick, soft Terry Cloth bath robes to give my BM's. I wanted the 'big robe' from Gap Body, but they are no longer available. I found other terry robes in the color I want on gapbody.com, they are 49.50 each. Is that too much for a terry robe? I dont know how they feel either because they are online. Also I saw terry robes (not in the color I like) at Victorias secret for 59.50 each. Has anyone seen any robes? Are these prices good?

Costco had them for $27.99, egyptian cotton. I think the only colors they had were white & navy blue. (They may have had others, but my mind was focused on the white robes at the time.

)

I know, this is crazy, ALL I DO IS SPEND MONEY ON THE WEDDING! So Jenn, do you think the robes are too costly a gift?

Re: Terry Bath Robes...

I just had a conversation with my mother about this last night. I think I am going to give every girl something different. I know I am not going to do jewelery. For my sister I am going to do a wine of the month club. She is an avid red wine drinker so she will get two bottles a month for 12 months..who doesnt love a gift that keeps on giving (her hubby gets a gift than too!) Her hubby is an avid micro brew drinker so he will get a beer of the month club membership. and so far they are the only two I can figure out. My cousin is having a baby next month so I am thinking of getting her a whole home spa basket with a cd and candles, massage oil, bath salts facial treatments and the such. I only have three girls in my wedding party ( I had a strict family only rule) so I will be spending about 150 on each girl.

Re: Terry Bath Robes...

27.99 at costco sounds great, are they nice?
i like the diea of something different for everyone too. I'd love to get my girls the robes and slippers that they can wear at the wedding too, plus I want to get them a little jewlery set, is that too much? I was even thinking of some bath stuff too maybe I am going overboard.

Re: Terry Bath Robes...

Christy,

I gave my BM's each a thick terry robe that I had embroidered with their name and a flower. I bought the robes from JCPennys and I got them on sale and with a coupon for some % off and they cost me $25 each! Check out JCPennys website. they are always having sales.

Good Luck
Lisa

Re: Terry Bath Robes...

I think the best Terry robe I have ever felt was from Land's End. I think they may be a little expensive, but they always have sales.

Re: Terry Bath Robes...

I got my BMs' robes from JC Pennys also ($25). I didn't have them enbroidered so I can't help you with that but I can tell you that everyone loved them.

Re: Terry Bath Robes...

i think thats a wonderful idea and the prices are not bad at all...you could probably get them cheaper at a no-name place, but the whole 'victorias secret' or gap thing makes the gift even more elegant...

Re: Terry Bath Robes...

I wonder if the Tanger outlets would have name brand for less?

Re: Terry Bath Robes...

Lillian Vernon Online also has them. They come in navy or white and can be embroidered with either initals or full name for free. The price on-line says $59.95, but the catalog I just got says 2 for $109.95. Here is a pic.
