Online Organic Shopping in the Black Friday Sales

Black Friday is just around the corner and we started our special deals this week, it’s the perfect opportunity to pick up some incredible deals on organic and sustainable children’s clothing.

This time of year, it’s really easy to get lost in all of the discounts and sales that are being pushed in front of you, but be careful not to lose sight in what really matters. Remember to buy quality clothing, remember sustainability and find pieces that you need and that align with your family values.  

Here’s a little guide to help you shop smart during the Black Friday sales, ensuring you get exactly what’s best for your little ones without compromising on your principles.

Plan in advance

• Before you even think about looking in the sales, make a list of the items that your children need, everyday essentials, or the next size up for growing kids.

• If you are searching online bookmark your choices so you can easily go back and find them for when you make your final decision.

• If you want sustainability make sure your choices have GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) or OEKO-TEX certified labelling

Set a budget and stick to it

• Black Friday deals are there to tempt you, its so easy to overspend and buy what you don’t really want

• Make sure that you are getting a real deal, some retailers inflate their prices before hand and then slash them to the original price. This is where your research will help.

Size up for Future Use

• Children grow and buying the next size up during sales can save you a bit of money in the long run.

• Look for pieces that they can grow with, even think of the next season so buying long sleeves for winter.

Think Timeless and Durable

• If you are buying organic sustainable clothing then one thing you won’t want to do is buy seasonally. As an example, buy a red t-shirt to represent Christmas you can wear this any time too, not just Christmas.
  
  
• Choose clothing that you can mix and match with items that you already have in your wardrobe.

Shop locally and thoughtfully

• It’s a great time to support independent local businesses. The difference with buying from an independent is that you are investing directly with them, their care, quality and creativity. Let the independent stores do their happy dance to celebrate your purchase. 
  

• Buy what you need, think quality over quantity.

Happy Shopping!

Black Friday doesn’t have to mean sacrificing sustainability for savings. With a little planning, you can fill your child’s wardrobe with beautiful, organic pieces that are better for them and the planet. Remember, every purchase you make is a step towards a greener, more thoughtful future.
