Carter’s Babies & Kids

After waiting 15 minutes in line with a squirming 13 month old, I finally got to the register. I had a coupon and Carter’s cash. I was told I needed to do two transactions. Ok whatever. We are now at 20 minutes. First transaction, $ 70. Second transaction, the item she saved is $ 6.99, so I have money left on my Carter’s cash. After ringing up $ 70 in merchandise … She says, you need to pick something else out. I ended up forfeiting some of the Carter’s cash because I did not want to spend any more time in there. It was such BS.
Bottom line — you’re a kid’s store — make it easier to shop. I won’t be back.

There are some GREAT deals at this outlet store, especially if you stack emailed coupons on top of their discounts — think two piece PJ sets for about $ 5, shirts/​muscle tees for $ 4-​ish.
I am just not rating them super high because the selection of toddler boy’s clothes is somewhat limited. The lady who worked there also suggested that our kids play at the play table… but the wooden puzzles there each had about ONE puzzle piece that was still there to use. Not much use — time to replace your toys Carters!

I go kid clothing shopping about as often as I change my own oil in the car, but here we are.
Had an exchange to do, they were pleasant about taking it over the counter and encouraged a look-​see to make it a flat exchange. The Mrs. found a few things, and went to the counter; waiting on the only clerk as she was trying to help a mom spent enough to use her coupon that required $ 50 pre-​tax dollars spent.
And waited. No, that toy didn’t do it, only made it $ 48.77. Then the most magical comment I’ve heard in a children’s store.
Mom: I was hoping for something with a clip to hang it over the car seat.
Clerk: Oh. Some people leave that plastic one on it and use that.
Wha… what?!? Oh, the plastic tab that holds it onto the peg in the store. So, you mean to tell me people regularly use these flimsy things that break with a good tug and hand them to their infant children to play with and choke on? Unlikely.
Better to tell the woman there’s other options than to make crap up. Especially when said made-​up crap has a potential risk to a child — which is the bread-​and-​butter of your customer base.
Fortunately, a second clerk finally emerged and rang us out before any other vapid statements would emerge from the other clerk’s mouth.
I’m still not going to be changing the oil anytime soon, hence I’ll likely not be back anytime in the foreseeable future.

I am a huge fan of Carter’s clothes for kids. We used to have to drive to Tracy or Folsom and I am excited this store is now 10 minutes away! Their clothes stand the test of time and I am able to pass them down to my youngest.

DD and I were on a kid shopping trip… of course we both go a new spring item, but the DGD’s cleaned up too.
Carter’s is great… no third rate stuff here. Sturdy play clothes for kids… great for school. Great for underthings, jammies, and socks too!
My only complaint is that the styles are a bit over decorated for my tastes (I like GAP better)
She got leggings for $ 1.50…and a big bag of spring tops and dresses for the girls. They are so exited to wear the new items…

Oh Carter’s. What can I say. This is a very difficult review for me to make due to the fact that I love their products! The store is large and definitely saves me the drive to Milpitas to their other store.
However, the negative review isn’t from their lines which are incredibly long, but from the fact that my identity was stolen at this specific Carter’s. Yes, I purchased something from them weeks ago, but based on my online banking, I’m still purchasing things from their store without my knowledge. I called to resolve this and was basically pushed to the side and told to contact Carter’s directly. No resolution for me.
I may try this store again one day, but until all their internal issues are resolved, I may have to drive all the way back to Milpitas after all. At least they don’t have the giant lines.

As a new mom I’ve come to learn that the Carter’s brand is equivalent to the mecca of children’s clothing. If you’ve shopped for baby clothes you’re likely to come across Carter’s clothing whether it be at Babies R Us, Walmart or even Costco. But this location is their own.
Entering the store, you’re greeted with door busters for both boys and girls, all in seasonal fashion. You’re bound to pick up one cute item of clothing from that selection alone. On the left side is girls, right side for boys. You’ll find sections of sleepers, play wear, coordinates, holiday outfits, dressier clothes, shoes and hats. Towards the back is the real dangerous area — the Clearance section, where prices are even further reduced and the temptation to buy a t-​shirt onesie is even greater simply because it costs $ 3.
I like the styles of clothing they offer, bright & fun everyday wear. Fan of the clothing, not so much a fan of the LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG lines. It is what it is. Hopefully you’re there with someone else and you can tag team waiting in line and perusing the store.
