I'd be grateful for whatever I got, I am not a gift grabber, but if someone got me $74 Christmas pajamas I'd think on the inside WTF? Why not spend that money on something that actually useful?
We are also taking the PJ group to see The Lightening Thief on Broadway. Those tickets were substantially more expensive than the PJs. Do you think that’s a waste of money too since it’s a 2-3 hour show and they’ll have nothing at the end of it?
Are you all going in your matching pajamas? You hopefully know that a Broadway show is different than a pair of pajamas...
Unfortunately we won’t be able to go in our PJs since we have dinner reservations at a nice restaurant, but believe me I thought about it 😂.

I ordered them online.
Man you fell into the "brand name" trap hard. Most of their stuff is produced in China which means it's overpriced and likely of a cheap quality too. A bunch of bored rich kids opened a business and outsourced their manufacturing to China and you fell hard for the "rich" status symbol.
Gucci is a “rich” status symbol. Vineyard Vines is really no different than J Crew - a middle market retailer.
Selling Walmart quality clothes to wannabe preppies that can't afford entry to the country club but like to pretend. Get out of here with that cheap poser shit. .

We don’t belong to a country club because we belong to a yacht club where we keep our sailboat. It seems like overkill to belong to both a country club AND a yacht club.

Sweet!
Skimmed the site and nothing really jumped out and said “buy me”.. Their stuff was just okay. 🙁
Glad you were able to find something.

Did you get the discount?

I did. I don’t generally buy things for myself there, but DH and the boys like their polo shirts. And their aren’t a lot of decent Christmas themed PJ options out there. I’ve been really disappointed with the quality of the pajamagram ones.

Are they all matching? Or did you pick more personal ones out for each person? I think it’s sweet that you are gifting pajamas to your guests.

Yes, yes it is. But they’re nice PJs and we won’t do other gifts for the adults except cookies and candy.
