Sleepstore has a great value merino vest, ($21 long sleeve and $18 short sleeve) and they have free shipping for the next few days. My DD wore them every day and night over winter.
I also like Sweet Cheeks for all in ones. I have picked up some great deals from trade me second hand and near new stuff for a fraction of the price. |

I've been hunting too. Am after long sleeve body suits and want really fine merino so it doesn't make the girls excema flare up.
I've see some of the stuff from Marselme.com and it's beautiful but pricey - specially cos I need 2 of everything! I actually just rec'd this morning some cardies I ordered from Mokopuna in their sale and it is lovely soft merino so was thinking I might get body suits from them also. Wonder how long their sale is for. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Just letting anyone know that the JK onesie domes aren't the strongest. Any slight tug and they came apart so my DD grew out of them early -------------

DD has worn a lot of JK merino these last 2 years, and I find it really good. We once had an issue with domes, but I took it back and they swapped it without any issues  .

Postie Plus has some really nice soft merino stuff, and pretty cheap. I think the pants were $13, and the long sleeve body suit was $15. ------------- http://pregnancy.baby-gaga.com/" rel="nofollow">

Could you PM me her user name too pls Queenbee 
Last winter, Isla wore a lot of the snow baby stuff from JK. I love the stuff, never had issues with domes. It still looked like brand new once she'd grown out of it so will save them for when we have #2. I got given some Mokopuna merino nighties for DD when she was first born and OMG they are grgeous. So soft, but ridiculously expensive so doubt I will be buying them this year. I hope the same Aunty decides to buy me some more lol. I just don't understand how tiny people clothing can be so expensive..... I mean you can get 2x adult size merino long sleeve tops for $50! So how can something that uses 1/3 the material cost so much! Daylight robbery if you ask me -------------

I bought some long sleeved merino bodysuits from Farmers, they have buy two, 30% off at the moment so they come down to around $25 each. The colours are gorgeous and it's thick merino and washes really well. I'm really impressed, going to wait for a 50% off sale and get a few more.
Best thing is they go up to a size 2, it gets quite tricky trying to find bodysuits size 1 and over at an ok price. I like Snow Baby stuff from JK but the bodysuits don't come in larger sizes. ------------- Two little girls under 2!

| There is a JK merino top on sale on NZsale website for $14.95 today - it's not listed as merino, but it is the "Envelope Print Tee-521823SS10-LawnGreen" with the stiped sleeves and rabbit print. Good bargain if anyone is interested!! |
